@unseenlarks Yes I agree with that. Also wish we could have like a bank in the Sims where they can apply for a loan for house etc 😂 don't feel like cheating with money cheats.
I wish we could have more traits to choose from the beginning. I do use reward etc traits for Sims because it feels like it would match their personality and performance. I will try to play their life longer and not worry about aging or making things go too fast (although I am not a fan of babies and toddlers 😂)

My problem is that I end up making perfect families; everyone is always happy, kids do their homework, no one ever fights, the house is always clean, a pretty unrealistic scenario :D Then I get bored. I need to find a good challenge to play.

@nualla_6109 I do absolutely the same! It takes a while for me to get bored since I always make some goal for them to reach. This is also why I asked how people play, because it seems to me I am trying to live a perfect life through Sims 😂 instead of just playing with much more creativity.

  @EeveeTinn--how about creating an antagonist? that way your main Sims can remain as nice as you'd like them, but you can still have someone available to potentially cause a little unrest. 😛

    @unseenlarks I had an idea of turning one of their kids into meany and materialist, but I could not follow up with being mean 😂 since that father winter bug causing game freezing, I reset the whole save, so currently they have no kids. I will try to do that again and keep up with one of their kids simply being spoiled and mean 😂
