00:00Dynasties are here.
00:02This is about legacy.
00:04Your family identity...
00:05Your ideals...
00:06Your crest...
00:07All carried on long after you kicked the bucket.
00:10A dynasty might be a whole family of nobles.
00:15Or mysterious icons.
00:17Or wealthy entrepreneurs.
00:19But...
00:20Let's back up a bit.
00:21And talk about how you can start a dynasty.
00:25As the founder and head of a dynasty.
00:28You get to make all the big decisions.
00:30Choosing the family crest.
00:32Enforcing the family values.
00:35And even inviting your favorite family members from other households to join.
00:40There are two measures of a successful dynasty.
00:43Unity, meaning how well...
00:45As the dynasty members get along.
00:46And prestige, which is earned by living by your values.
00:50Or lost by going against them.
00:55Naming your heir ensures your dynasty will carry on.
01:00Although your cool auntie is probably too busy to accept.
01:04Maybe choose somebody who...
01:05Who actually wants the position.
01:06Who actually wants the position.
01:10There you go.
01:11Individual actions may only have a small impact on prestige.
01:15But every little bit helps.
01:16And prestige equals pecs.
01:19Like...
01:20Getting a tutor.
01:21Or faster promotions at work.
01:23Everyone say nepo baby!
01:25Or even making alliances easier.
01:29Since pressing...
01:30And prestige receives a boost from forging connections with other dynasties too.
01:34Even when you...
01:35Find yourself facing off against a rival dynasty.
01:38There's an opportunity...
01:39To come out ahead.
01:40To come out ahead.
01:41To come out.
01:42To come out.
01:43To come out.
01:44To come out.
01:45To come out.
01:46But...
01:47There's also a risk to your personal rank if you hold prestige.
01:50And if it drops low enough.
01:52Someone could challenge you for leadership.
01:55To come out.
01:56Maybe.
01:57But hey.
01:58If you're not happy being part of his Satan dynasty.
02:00You can go start a new one.
02:01You can go start a new one.
02:02Just make sure you choose family members.
02:05Who will help you gain prestige.
02:07Instead of lose it.
02:10This is a Schoonpha.
02:11Uh oh.
02:12That secret affair better not come to light.
02:15It's important to ensure no one discovers your dirty laundry because with DVO
02:20Conspirators about every one of your families indiscretions is a
02:25potential scandal waiting to break
02:30Take advantage of the situation
02:35By leveraging your new knowledge use it to form a trusted bond as a
02:40Close, loyal, confident
02:43Oh, extract them for pa-
02:45Power or simoleons
02:46Muchever
02:48Oof, that will hold prestige
02:50Quite a bit
02:51You can try and do damage control by declaring the troublesome dynasty mem-
02:55The outcast
02:56But the effects of a scandal may last a while
02:59Maybe it will-
03:00It would have been better to stay in your original dynasty
03:03But the choice is yours
03:05Just sim it and see
03:08Ha ha!
03:09Yes!
03:10Now you just have to decide if you want the crown
03:15Ooh, shiny!
03:20Me
03:23Yow
03:25You
