I know there are legacies where people strictly have to pick either girl or boy heirs, or they have to pick the first born. But my need for everything to look pretty overrides all the rules and I need to pick the prettiest heir. I've been having trouble in my newest legacy because all the children look pretty so if you guys would be so kind to vote I'd really appreciate that. Also do you guys follow any specific rules when choosing an heir or what?https://serving.photos.photobox.com/722329755a86280e69dc4e7c44a9c26d64b8925b30ae59a0ce93920b2f02fc1c518059b6.jpgElsa KingAspiration: Friend to the WorldTraits: Dog Lover, Goodhttps://serving.photos.photobox.com/254038915d82261bd9211820f78e033c1d0b258aa77134ac79848dc8825cdb69816f623a.jpgAdelaide KingAspiration: Nerd BrainTraits: Loner, Clumsyhttps://serving.photos.photobox.com/9485362202e98197bdfa375bb445df3f826db9742602b4a8561313be85a14135c5b69c74.jpgCatherine KingAspiration: Musical GeniusTraits: Art Lover, Creative

Ask yourself a question about the sims in question, which one is the most interesting for you. Which one do you enjoy playing the most with?

Thanks to all of you guys commenting, I've decided that Elsa is going to be the heir for generation 2. Time to make 20 friends Elsa :#

I vote Adelaide! She's sweet-looking.

Can’t decide between Elsa and Catherine :tired_face: — I kinda plan ahead with the background of each sim that is born in game, and which ever one I fall in love with the most is the one becomes heir/ess.

How do you guys decide which sim is the heir of a legacy?

Elsa is my favorite!

Whenever I play legacies and I need an heir, I just pick my favorite.

Between those two, there is something about Elsa that catches my attention.

Elsa's my favorite (:

I usually choose the one that would be most likely to have attractive children :''D

I would pick Elsa if I were you! She seems like her kids would be the prettiest no matter who she has them with.
I used to pick whoever was the most attractive, but then my sims always ended up looking the same and I got bored. Now I follow the firstborn rule! It makes genetics end up more interesting in my case and I get some cool looking heirs.

I agree with everyone in picking Elsa. Personally I usually pick the youngest child, this way I have all their siblings married off before I focus solely on the heir. I enjoy having large family trees for story purposes and this just keeps it easy IMO.

I like Adelaide but maybe that's because I relate to her traits lol I usually either just choose my favourite or the youngest girl

I like Elsa, personally. As for Legacy Heirs, when I do play a full-blown Legacy, it's Pinstar's Legacy Challenge, and yes, I go by the rules. The Sims4 rules, however, allow for a variety of criteria in order to select the heir, so it's not as hard and fast as in the past two iterations of the Sims.

Elsa looks real pretty. Choose her.
