An awesome save...

I have always not been very good at playing any of my saves for very long but I do have a few that I wish that I would have kept.

I do have one family I wish I had saved. I think they might be on the external drive from where I placed things before my hard drive crashed. I was lucky enough to have some warning that it was going and did save a few things. I should check for them.

It would be interesting to revisit the past...

I had a few from 2012 when I first started that I wished I could've kept though I had to delete them because they all ended up with corruption from children getting taken away by the NPC social workers and I was palying without Mods back then and others just got EC 12 or glitched out with the EA bugfest going crazy.I've got a few from 2013 that I am still able to play though on another Sims 3 folder.

Ugh! YES!! I still want to smack myself for deleting them. Connor/Caroline and their 6 kids, such a fun save from almost 3 years back. I stopped playing them for some reason deleted them and regretted it the second after I did it, I loved the house I built for them too, I may recreate it as I still remember it clear as day.

I left all my early saves when I moved back to Australia a few years ago. I was not upset about it because I did bring all my CC and sim files. As long as I have my sim files, I am happy :) Even if a new save with the same sims doesn't go quite the same, it's not a problem since my style has changed over the years and I would probably spend more time fixing things than actually playing an old save.

Am I the only one who saves my saves on an external hard drive? Ugh. I can go back to -if not my first- but certainly to 2010! I just don't want to, I've been playing the same save since 2014... B)

I'm still kinda playing my early save from 2010, I just gotta keep saving copies across multiple devices just in case. I really wish I could go back and save my TS2 save from being deleted though now that I have the UC.

I don’t understand this ‘deleting saves.’ Never have I ever deleted a save! Why would you do that?!

I’ve kept saves of all my generations so I can always go back if I want to. Never did though (well, only when I need someone or something from a save, but never to play it). Everything in there is part of my current sim’s heritage and past, it can’t be replayed.
