How do you play your game?
When you play, do you watch your Sims live their lives without purpose, or are you more of a take direct control to help them find happiness?

A couple years ago, I would have definitely been in the control everything category, and I still queue up actions for everyone in my household most every day, but I've learned to let them go part of the day or all day sometimes and just let them enjoy themselves and see what they get up to. I've found I have more fun that way, too. ;) I still don't usually play with story progression, so I'm controlling in that households I'm not playing (I rotate to some degree), are set up how I want them to be - for instance, who lives where, what jobs they have, etc.
