Usually I only stop playing a save if the save is no longer working properly, for example the game is lagging, freezing or anything that makes the save unplayable for me. I always wish I could run long family legacy stories but nope, it is very difficult for me as I love managing lots of things like Sims households in the worlds and help with the Neighborhood story aspects by making certain scenarios more likely to happen, such as a married couple getting a new baby in the family, but sometimes I think I stop playing because there are so many Sims/horses/cats/dogs in the save and then I may create a new save and potentially upload some of my progressed Sims to the Gallery so I can re-use them in a new save and start it fresh, an entire alternate universe of new possibilities and storylines :blush:
