Teen gameplay request

Teen gameplay should be improved to allow teens to buy/own cars and have a part time job on the weekend. The restrictions on this age group make it hard to story-tell. Teens can rent and drive boats, but not cars. You can start the game playing only as a teen, buy a house and move in, but cannot buy a car. In life, teens are allowed to drive and work, this should be reflected in game. I would like to see my teens be able to drive themselves to school, to hangout with friends, or to other locations around the city.

In Bliss Bay, absolutely. Not so sure about Cahaya or Dowon, I do know (at least, if I remember correctly) that only California has 16 year olds able to get a driver’s license in real life, even in the US most states require a minimum of 18, 19, 20 or even 21. Here in Canada the age requirement is 18.

Not really. Here in ontario i got my learning permit shortly after turning 16 when i was allowed to drive under supervison and got a driving instructor. 8 months later and i took my road test and passed, thus obtaining my temporary driving license shortly after turning 17. If i did everything earlier, i could have still been 16 while driving.

While i disagree about the fact zoi teens should be able to own cars (cause what kind of teen buys him own car?), i do think teens should be allowed to borrow their parents’ car and their parents should be able to teach them to drive

I live in the US, and the ability to get a drivers license varies by state but is between 16-18. I got my permit at 15 and fully licensed at 16. Worked a part time job at 16 and bought my own car :slight_smile: .

If they went by this logic:

“(While i disagree about the fact zoi teens should be able to own cars (cause what kind of teen buys him own car?), i do think teens should be allowed to borrow their parents’ car and their parents should be able to teach them to drive)”

Then it would not make sense to be able to start the game and play only as a teen. Because in what world is a teen able to buy their own house? This one, lots of celebrity, and fully emancipated teens own their own housing. In the US, lots of secondary school students starting in their Junior year of high-school own vehicles and drive themselves to school. I’ve worked in education for 17 years and majority of our students (Age 16-19) drive to campus. There are lots of teens on their own taking care of themselves by working and paying for their own transportation and housing.

This is a life simulation game, and we should be able to tell stories that resonates with life.

I think it is to consider that the teenage reaches from 13 to 19. So the line has to be drawn somewhere.

The adolescent stage in Inzoi is between 11-15, the teen stage is between 16-20. They have different stages for a reason. They can definitely allow teens to drive if they wanted.

There are laws against that. When you buy a car, the one thing that you do no matter what is signing a contact. However, minors cannot sign a contract and any contract they do sign will be non legally binding and void meaning they cannot legally buy the car themsleves. This is true for most countries incliding the US, korea and indonesia. This also applies to insurance and license plates.

Of course, they can get their guardians to sign for them, so they technically will own it. Howeever, in terms of inzoi i think itd be much simpler if teens werent allowed to own cars and just borrowed their parent’s car or something and if their parents passes away, they get to inherit the title of the car

Concordo!
Seria ótimo ter a possibilidade de conciliar o ensino médio ou universidade com empregos de meio período (estudando em um turno e trabalhando em outro) e/ou ter a possibilidade de trabalhar nos fins de semana.
Sinto falta que meu zoi que mora sozinho possa estudar e trabalhar ao mesmo tempo.

NĂŁo sei sobre os estados dos EUA, mas Ă© verdade que, em muitos outros lugares do mundo, os menores de 18 anos nĂŁo podem dirigir.

This is a video game, there are no laws in Cahaya, Bliss Bay or Dowon. This is a wishlist post, and you really don’t have to agree with my suggestion, but I am allowed to suggest it.

Of course you are allowed to suggest it, you were also allowed to start the real life discussion and we are allowed to discuss it :psycat_paw:

Igual en España hasta la mayoría de edad no pueden conducir (por eso no me resulta importante o tan chocante). Pero sí que opino que deberían de dar mas realismo a lo de las salidas en grupo y que se sienta que es un adolescente, con ganas de pasar tiempo con sus amistades. Sería divertido :smiling_face:

Pueden comprar su casa porque ha sido con un dinero heredado! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: En verdad, es como dices es un juego de simulación y ya que en otros países sí que pueden los adolescentes conducir. Estaría bien que pensasen algo para poder dar la opción a la gente que quiera jugar con adolescentes que conducen. Es cierto que chirría un poco que puedan optar a comprar una casa y no a lo otro…
