Short and Sweet Legacy

Hi, everyone! 

I've been having some of the most fun playing with my current household and I just wanted to share some of my favorite game play moments in one thread. I gave myself a few rules to make it more realistic, allowing me to change up how I play. 

Rules:

  • I have to play on short lifespan.
  • If I purchase anything from Build/Buy mode, I have to wait until the next day to actually place it on the lot, or after they come back from traveling to a different lot. 
  • The sims have to clean up their own dishes and trash. (No clicking and dragging.)
  • I must play each sim with their traits, skills, likes, and dislikes in mind. (When each decision is based on the sim's character, it gives them so much more life!)

THE SUTHERLANDS

This is Brynlee. She dabbles in art and works at a studio, but she dreams of becoming a successful actress. She volunteers at the Del Sol Valley local theater where she will be performing on stage for the first time very soon. “The Sol” is the place where many movie stars have launched their careers, and Bryn hopes to be at the top of the A-list!

Traits: Outgoing, Active, Self-Absorbed
Aspiration: Master Actress
Career: Actress

She lives with her brother Cole, who just came home from college, and her elderly dad Declan.

Cole is trying to figure out which path he wants to take with his tech skills.

Traits: Non-Committal, Adventurous, Geek
Aspiration: Computer Whiz
Career: Freelance Programmer

Declan may be a retired explorer, but he’s still finding treasure in his own backyard.

    Bryn shows off her baby bump at the premiere of Growing Up Crumplebottom. Seeing herself on the big screen for the first time makes it all too real. This moment confirms what she believed all along. She was born for this.

    Bryn and her baby are showered with love as they celebrate the quickly approaching arrival of their family's new addition. Cole is excited to be an uncle and hopes that their future kids will grow up together. Kira is just enjoying her hot cocoa too much to comment...

    Bryn is also excited about the baby. About being a mom for the first time. She's also scared. There are no rehearsals for this role. She can research as much as she wants, but it's nothing like actually living it out. What if she's not good at being a mother? What if it's too much to handle? All it takes is for Cole to remind her that this role, for this child, was chosen just for her and she has a family of supporting roles to back her up when she needs it.

    Cole is so excited for his first ever meet and greet at Gamers Con...until Ari shows him Kira’s text asking her advice about a guy she might be interesting in. Ari was right all along.

    Cole pushed his heartbreak aside and tried to enjoy Gamer’s Con with his best friend Liam. He met some fans. Competed in tournaments. He even got to meet new rising star in the gaming community, Gummie, who is just as sweet in person as she is playing Farming With Friends on Simstube.

    But the moment he saw Kira, he couldn’t pretend anymore. He revealed how he knew she was keeping her options open, seeing it with his own eyes. He really loved her and imagined a whole life for the two of them. But obviously she wasn’t ready for that. The wedding was off.

    What’s up, Cole Miners! I know I promised an Xstream live of my wild adventure in Selvadorada, but the harsh weather conditions of the jungle were too much for my little pal The Explorer.

    But don’t worry. I have plenty of footage to show you guys. So gear up and let’s get diggin’!

    A machete is also handy for chopping through the tangle of vines guarding the treasures of the jungle. Trust me, you do not want to go in bare handed.

    Unless your only machete breaks and you have no other choice...But it might take you a while so, you might just want to turn back around to prevent tearing your hands to shreds.

    The brave comrades joining me on this trip? My boy Liam. He’s knocked out in the bush there. It was a long first night.

    And everyone’s most loveable gamer, Gummie, AKA Emmie. Since three of us have been having a blast streaming with you guys, we thought we would test our skills out in the real world.

    Conquering shaky bridges battered by the elements.

    Discovering collectables. Dad taught me well.

    And battling one another in the extremely strategic Don’t Wake the Llama that awakens the fierce inner competitor in the softest of hearts.

    But I’ve always admired those who know how to lose with grace.

    It’s tough out here, but the views are amazing, and there’s still so much for us to explore. Stay tuned for our next adventure, and remember, life is a gold mine. Keep digging.

    Introducing baby Rose as she celebrates her very first Christmas! Nico and Bryn host the Christmas party, serving hot cocoa, thoughtful presents, and joy.

    Bryn always appreciates a good gift, but even if she never received another thing, she’s grateful for the overflow of blessings she’s already been given. She’s surrounded by love. What more could a girl ask for?
