Let your Sims fight harder—test relationships with new insults and arguments.

Insults & Arguments adds a variety of new negative social interactions to The Sims 4—things like insulting appearance, arguing about money, and confronting attitudes—giving Sims more expressive conflict options.

Key Features
The mod introduces new insults (e.g. “Bully about Weight,” “Criticize Social Skills,” “Mock Speaking Voice”) and arguments (e.g. “Argue about Past Behavior,” “Argue about Work/Life Balance,” “Argue about Outfit”). All interactions are non-autonomous to ensure player control, and they reduce relationships when used.
