    • @nctsgrass
      @nctsgrass 3 года назад +35

      Haha my attachement issues are actually why I switch! I'm playing with a legacy and now that most children of the founders are young adults, I've had to have them move out to start their own life. 3 are married & each have their own house, 1 moved out in an apartment with her best friend, and then 1 is still with her mother and 3 siblings who aren't adults yet (yes im aware there are plenty of kids my founder got triplets, adopted her niece and there's 2 half siblings 😭).
      And I love all these sims so I always rotate to make sure I play with all of them and nobody is left behind in time. Now I organized a holiday reuniting 4 siblings and each of those siblings' partner & since all of them are from different households, I'll have to rotate even while all 8 are under the same roof ahahah
      Edit: oh and I had aging turned on for a really long time because there are many other households and I wanted everyone to keep growing at the same time however now that the founder is an elder not far away from dying I turned it off 😔 I'll turn it back on when I'll be ready for her to go...

  • @ifeelwierd2002

    The last family I really had fun with:
    A new guy arrives to Del Sol, he wants to be famous, but he's a nobody. He doesn't have much money and tries to be an actor, but fame isn't handed to him right away, so he seduces the known celebrity Judith Ward. But there's a little inconvenient... He's gay. They get married, they move together, he becomes famous, and she's so happy, but I couldn't allow that. My Sim starts having an affair with another actor he knew from work, and they have this secret romance. Meanwhile, Judith is getting older and older every day, and she wants a baby before it's too late! My Sim gets her pregnant, but then tells her he's gay. She's incredibly supportive and they both decide to keep going with the lie, the marriage and the baby. Judith gets a boyfriend and the four of them live in the house with the infant until they're rich and famous enough to get divorced. They just wanted the fame, the attention, and they got it.

    I made some homeless Sims once, they lived on a lot I turned into a park, with just a few benches and a fire pit. They were constantly stinking and tired but ate well because they fished and gardened (and roasted them over the fire). It was a lot of fun. Then I decided I will have them earn enough to build a basic house on the lot with money only made from busking, selling paintings and writing books (using library computers), it took ages but the day they finally saved enough to buy their first bed, the cheapest available, felt like a real achievement 😂

    I love the rotation playstyle. I filled Newcrest with different families and a few public lots, and I change the family I play pretty often, so I never get bored. It's also fun to rediscover what I made after weeks of not seeing a certain home. Things like: "Ah, yes, I made this guy a loner" or "Damn, this kitchen is awful, what kind of useless person built... Oh right".

Like, how could you pretend of having fun playing exatcly the same type of family over and over again doing always the same things? Even The Sims 2 and 3 would be boring if played like this. That's a reason if in The Sims 2 the rotational gameplay is a standard suggested by Maxis and in The Sims 3 the "themed gameplay" made by playing 1 or 2 espansione at once are a thing.

      The Sims 4 doesn’t have an overall goal in the game. It’s a sandbox and solely dependent on the user making their own fun. You need to constantly find new ways to entertain yourself, which takes effort and creativity some people don’t want to put in

    • @elia9188
      @elia9188 3 года назад +25

      Chey true! The sims is all about creativity but many want a more RPG sims with pre-built stories (maybe that's why EA come out with the "story driven packs). The funny thing is that of all the problems TS4 has, apparently what made many hate the game is the "lack of interesting townies", that could be simply solved by downloading from the gallery new families, or by downloading a custom save!

      Honestly I feel the game rewards you too much for growing a sim since they are literal newborns. If you care for them well, and complete all the child and teen aspirations your sim actually grows up to be an overpowered sim. It’s too unbalance-y for me. Since when you create a sim it starts with 0 skills. Having grown a sim since birth changes the gameplay dramatically. Like I can grow a sim to a YA and already have 8+ traits. It’s kinda crazy overpowered.

    Once I had a teenage sim, and she just wanted to be a rock star when she grew up. So, CLEARLY she didn't have to go to school anymore. She started ditching every day, but the question became: what was she supposed to do all day?
    Well, I challenged myself to have her live in the biggest house in Willow Creek, (home to the Spencer-Kim-Lewis's) for as long as possible without them knowing. (Kind of like your sims-in-the-walls idea.) She'd take naps on unused beds, eat their leftovers, and hang out upstairs. She also briefly dated their teenage daughter before leaving her for Bob Pancakes when they were older. It was a good time all around.

      life isn’t just about having kids and trying to get to the top of your career. kids are annoying as hell like you said and jobs are boring. try doing something that’s actually exciting with your next household and you’ll probably actually enjoy it. like maybe enemies to lovers. two members from two different clubs that hate each other begin to fall in love. add some drama, maybe one of them does maybe they don’t... you should give supernatural packs a try too cause they’re really fun. there’s a lot of stuff that you can do with the spellcasters and vampires. and i actually really love the new supernatural stuff pack.

    I actually already play multiple families. When I'm bored with one family I play another family and by family I don't mean only Families. I also play Single Households and all of them have different "stories". I also try to do an Utopian Save File and an Dystopian Save File with exactly the same Sims, the only difference is that in Utopia everything is wholesome "vanilla" and in Dystopia it's the opposite. :-)
    For example in Utopia Evergreen Harbour is Green in Dystopia Ever Green Harbour is Industrial, in Utopia all the Vampires get cured (or deleted if unpleasing to the eye) in Dystopia I turn as many Sims as possible into Vampires.
    In Utopia the mother plant is dead Strangerville is saved, in Dystopia the mother plant is thriving at its peek and I try to infect as many Sims as possible.
    In Utopia Sims die of old age in Dystopia... Not. Lol

    the life tragedies mod also spices my gameplay by so much bc of how random it is even tho i have it on very slow (ie an engaged princess in my save died bc she was brutally murdered on accident, hence I allowed another princess to marry into the same family but SHE DIED AGAIN, this family is cursed I swear so I gave them that story and now theyre heirless, on the verge of extinction lmaooo) i also have a rule in this save whereby the family (except royal family) with the least amt of simoleons are of higher statuses (basically being poor = powerful), which is similar to the "dont save ur money" tip i guess? kinda fun having to fret over how to freaking spend money in the game (i end up going to magnolia promenade to clear everything that's there LOL)

    I used to be kind of afraid of playing families with more than like 3 sims. Then I screwed up with my mod configuration, my neighbor suddenly got 8 babies and I made it my quest to raise the perfect litter.
    Which I fucking did. Perfect toddler skills(the "8 toddlers in a family that absolutely didn't care because of shitty traits" phase was the worst part), grades and everything. They even ended up having PERSONALITIES. Another difficult part was the sheer expenses with eco living bills(Oh, and a random Basemental junkie whose house they just kinda moved into. He spent a lot on drugs.), since I refused to use any simoleon farms. It was SATISFYING as fuck to slowly see their lives improving with their skills.
    With some more mods to fix the simulation lag, it's REALLY fun to not be in constant control of your sims' every move and to actually treat them like people for once.

    My friend got me into Sims a year ago. Best mistake ever. I didn't know that it wasn't normal to have around 800 Sims at once. My friend was horrified. Honestly, I should seek a therapist for this😂

    Another tip, if you don't already do this: Put on the option of everyones lives going on while you play a family and let random townies move in empty homes. I know I know, sounds obvious but you know what? I had some fun things happen. Lothario settled down with a totally unrelated townie and got 3 kids with her. Katrina got with J Huntington and had a child. A random generated family consisting of a single dad with his daughter moved in a house and the dad married Mitchell Kalani. When I realized I just went??? lol ok. So.. if you want to spice up your game.. let it do some stuff on it's own. See who breaks up, who gets together. Maybe even do that with a completely new savefile so everything is fresh and you still have tons of empty lots.
