My Zoi is constantly in melancholy mood because his not very close acquaintances are always dying. One by one.
Hi, can you check if the Zois in your city are hungry, thirsty, or want to sleep? Because in my area, that’s the case. So yes, it’s normal if they die one by one. This bug appeared for me after the Halloween update.
wow, but I should not check on other Zois 
i mean, I have my own Zoi and his needs, why should I care about the whole city. I hope they’ll fix it. And romantic relationship too
Same. Apparently they get sad when Acquaintance die too. It should be friends and above.
it’s either 0, 7 or 15.
It should be more varied over your relationship level.
Like an acquaintance (non-friend) should be from 1-3 (3= some progress in all 3 bars)
Friend level in 3 bars would be 6
BFF or near in all 3 bars should be like 9.
And receiving a text message letting us know who died would be nice as well.
Sometimes it is done, but far too often we’re left wondering who croaked.
Same, just had it happened to me twice. I will assume we don’t get to attend a funeral of a friend? Only We as the players can make it our own?
Agree with @Samuriko we should be notified who died when this happens. I see myself too often to travel to the graveyard to check the urns to see who actually died. From my experience you only get the notification who it was if you had text messaging going on with this Zoi. Then you get a text message on your mobile saying “the owner of this phone has died”.
Actually @Zokas you can make the funeral event for the friend who died and attend it. You have to take out the urn yourself and then you can create the event and invite the guests. I did for a couple of friends from my Zoi already and it is working fine. But you are not getting invited to one, you have to create the event yourself.
@EllaEstella Oh that is great! I’ll try creating one when an actualy friend Zoi dies then. Although I wished one is created for us. Weird we need to take out the urn ourselves.
More acquaintances dying since the V4 update is likely result of the having the default minimum city population increased to 200 in the settings. With more npcs in the city, the playable zoi acquires more contacts, who well … die. Ergo frequent melancholy mood.
I play multiple families, so more likelihood of multiple zois being sad for longer duration. I was considering going back to the 100 population limit, which now I will.
And yes, we need to know who died.
So this grim update has given us
- attire with horns, devil makeup or such
- more deaths
- ghosts
- funerals
- burglars
Hoping for some positivity in future updates.
