If I get her to talk to ppl she stands and looks at them for what seems like ages, b4 she says anything, and if the character is still there when she speaks, they just seem disinterested. She is also - well sorry to sound a bit nasty - but a bit thick despite having a genius trait. My character is constantly freezing while all still goes on around her which is irritating to say the least, but also caused me to have to drop her out of Uni as she kept either being late for lectures or not getting there at all. I have got most of the Sims 3 games, and they seem to play fine, but Midnight Hollow, well, it is just dreadful.
