Do You Like To Premade Sims Or CAS
I love getting to know how other people play their sims games. Not really to judge them, but more because it's always interesting to hear different answers and to see different perspectives. This is t...

@StephSteb Very true. I do find myself making new saves, because then I start getting ideas of, "What can I do with this sim." or "I wonder what it would be like to play a genie." I try really hard to keep it at no more than two saves, but I just end up failing at that.
@Nikkei_Simmer I can totally understand that. I love that River, Bebe and Samantha has some sort of relation to you. I always loved Samantha Grey. She reminds me of a childhood friend I grew up with since 4th grade. I always had her and my simself become best friends. But I can totally understand that. Pretty much why I spend the most hours playing sims I make based on myself and my family. The sims based on your rl wife is very beautiful, by the way! :smiley:
@mw1525 That's really cool that you love all sims, it's not something I hear often. I can't imagine have so many save files, but it's really cool that you enjoy multiple households!! I always love learning about different kinds of gameplays from other people whether they make stories, play out their real life in the sims, or even just sit and relax, it's all really awesome. Some of the features on sims do seem a bit over the top, I even try not to change too much of the sims, just that one feature or two that seems a bit off. I don't have Master Suit or Diesel, yet, but I'm hoping to get them soon if I still can. I would really love to see what comes with those packs.
@Emily4331 I used to do the exact same thing when I was younger. Before my husband and I started dating, I would make a simself and just have her marry a premade sim that fit closely to what I liked in a guy. But that was before sims 3. By the time I started playing sims 3, we were already dating. I can relate. I don't like too much of the premades facial features, but I will tweak their nose, chin, eyes whatever I feel is too exaggerated. I laughed so hard reading the giant eye syndrome. :D :D Yasmine is a very lovely sim! But I can understand becoming indecisive. There is just so much to do on the game that it's hard to not want to make a new save. It's funny, I even said to my husband that one of the things I love about sims 3 is how realistic it looks and the open world is always a plus. I like that I can have the members in my current household all at different places and I can switch back and forth to each one and check on them. 13 years is a long time, but honestly if I had the money back then to buy sims 3 when it came out, I probably would have played it for just as long too. :)
@Sleepstar That's really cool that you have sims you love playing. I love how they are oc's of your and how one of them came from a fanfic. I think a sorcerer becoming a sea captain would make for a really awesome storyline for a sim.
@Mikezumi Funny you mention genetics, that's why I made Lindsey. When I say science reasons, I wanted to see how the decedents would turn after after a couple or so generations. That and I've never really took advantage of the future pack, so I'm wanting to try out the Utoptian and Distopian thing. I've thought about installing a few mods, just to see if I would like them or not (That's not including hair, make-up and clothes), but last time I have cc on my sims game, it kept crashing the game. Especially when I would go to build/buy mode. If I spent more than 10 minutes in build/buy, the game would crash. I removed all cc and my game works perfectly fine. I'm worried mods might affect it the same. I love genetics. It's like opening up a blind-box. You have two sims that try for a baby and while the mom is pregnant, you sit there wondering who the baby will look more like, the mom or dad, and what their kids will look like and so on. :smiley:
