I have installed the following Expansion Packs: All
I have installed the following Stuff Packs: Everything but KPST
I own the following Store Content: All, except a few random promotional items (like the t-mobile stuff) Technically it's not all *installed* yet, but I'm working on that after we rebuilt computers a couple of months ago ;)
I own the following EA-made Worlds: All
Some of my favorite colors are: Purple is my favorite (all shades) but I really enjoy blues and greens as well. And natural tones for things like rock/stone/wood.
I really don’t like this color: Not a big fan of pink or orange, with the rare exception where it really works well with the build/outfit.
I love to use items from this set: Honestly, this changes depending on where I'm playing! But consistent faves include: all the bohemian stuff, the nautical sets, the jazz age/roaring heights/New Orleans stuff, gothic glamour, and the Edwardian things.
I prefer to play in this EA-made World: I move around a lot, but my favorites are probably Dragon Valley, Roaring Heights, Lucky Palms, Aurora Skies, and Midnight Hollow. Don't spend a lot of time in Lunar Lakes or Sunlit Tides, and I tend to use store worlds more than expansion worlds.
I enjoy playing in this custom world (please include link): I don't play a lot in custom worlds, but I do really enjoy Salmon Woods! mysimrealty.com/WORLDS_SalmonWoods.html
I enjoy this style of build the most: I prefer builds that suit the world they're built for (no thatched roof in Lucky Palms, for example!) but general styles I love most: Victorian, Craftsman, Mediterranean, Old Key West, and French Country. Also, I'm originally a Louisiana girl, so I love things that make me think of home! Cottages and cabins are great too, or a starter shack on a legacy lot to save time when I randomly want to start a fresh legacy family.
I really don’t want this in my game: I tend to avoid pets, since they always seem to get themselves all messed up with routing and I get tired of having to find and fix them. Also, I try not to get the family size totally maxed out, since that starts getting pretty overwhelming!
I would or would not like lots in the following sizes: All sizes are ok, but for anything other than the legacy lots I'm playing on (or the occasional community lot as needed) I tend to stick with lot sizes in the middle (20x20-40x40) But if you really want to go huge or go tiny, I can work with that!
I want/don’t want berry sims: This one is complicated. I tend to like my human sims to look human, and the more human supernaturals (witches, werewolves, vampires) to also be human colors. But for the other supernaturals? Go for it! Colorful fairies, merpeople, genies, aliens, etc, those are great fun!
I want/don’t want occult sims: Love my occults! Just not the bots. Cause you can't have a legacy family of bots.
I want/don’t want pets in the household: Ideally, no pets. But critters and fishies are ok if you feel the need for them!
Do you want your sims and/or pets skilled up for you? If so, how much? It depends! If it's a single sim I'm starting a legacy with, less is more. But for families and such, sure, if you want to level skills up, go for it!
Are there certain skills you want skilled because you really like having them ready when you start with a new sim or household? Doesn't really matter to me, if you're leveling skills...they're all useful in their own ways!
Are there particular skill items that you really like having in a build? I tend to play more with the gardening/cooking/fine arts skills, so things that help those are always nice!
Other: I mostly *play* legacy style (one of these years I'll actually finish a legacy, darn it!) so cute singles for my legacy founders/heirs to romance are always nice. Or kids for them to play with! Or families to populate the neighborhood and make it more interesting! I'm always looking for good community lots (hate having to build those from scratch every time I want to change up a neighborhood!) Lots that bring in skill items from the store venues are great too! I rarely use the actual venue lots, since they take up so much space and I have to add so much to them so they're more functional. I can send a list of specific lots I need most if you wanted to go that route! And I can always use more ideas for clothing recolors, since I sometimes get stuck in a rut using the same few patterns/colors. Also, I love having expansion stuff I can place into my my home world, so I don't have to go all the way to France for grapes, for example. But I'm sure I'll love whatever you make, so let your muse run with whatever comes to you!
