Does your sims live normal or soap opera lives?

All these are in one single file and I really enjoy rotating between them.
Hopefully soon I will create all the soap opera "Dynasty" characters and play them all in my game. I am a big fan of this show and having Alexis Colby as an enemy with Krystal Carrington and all the cat fights would create lots of drama in my game.

I love Dynasty despite not watching it and only hearing about it. I wish I could watch it, that show and Dallas were A grade quality soaps.

I love Dynasty a lot, I have all the DVDs of all the 9 seasons. I love Dallas too and been rewatching it on a weekly basis for nostalgia. Currently Im in season 7. But Dynasty has more glamour and glitter to it than Dallas. Both these soap operas make a perfect story for the sims 4 if you create the characters. Imagine a J.R. Euing version in the sims!!

I don't even have to think about this, soap opera.

They usually live a normal life, but one of the households that I created, it went like this:

Tom, Lexie (Gorgeous eyes, black hair) and Alice (Gorgeous ginger) started as roommates, this was my second Get To Work household. Alice got in a relationship and engaged. Right before they married, Alice broke up with her fiancé because she was pregnant with Tom. They had a girl (Meredith) and got engaged. Lexie got married and had a girl (Amelia) with a ginger cute boy, but he died in a fire. A couple of weeks later, Tom took the kids to Granite Falls with Lexie while Alice had work to do, and Lexie ended up getting pregnant and they fell in love. The love Tom felt was way stronger than the one he had for Alice,, so he broke up with her and married Lexie, they had a boy (Everest).

Way before this happened, Tom had one night stands with many girls and boys from Willow Creek and Oasis Springs, including Bella Goth. He had 5 kids (not counting the ones in this household).

The kids are teenagers now, I aged them up into Young Adults and moved the three of them to the modern part of Windenburg and they live in this industrial apartment, and it's my second Get Together household. I swear, Meredith looks like her mom (Alice), Amelia looks EXACTLY like her mom (Lexie) and Everest looks like his dad (Tom), so it's kind of like I started all over again with the same characters. It's one of the families I've had so much fun with.

It's so funny because one of the girls has Charisma level 9 or something like that, and she ends up asking her parents for money because we can barely afford the rent.

Mine live soap opera, murder mystery, true crime, serial killer, drama, cheating spouses,apocalypse, anything but normal lives. Normal is too boring for me. I want to play out other lives, other scenarios.....not what I do every day.

Apocalypse!!! Wow I never thought of that, I want to include that in my game!! Serial killer is so hard to pull off!

I've always wanted natural disasters in sims, seeing a tornado or a hurricane and earthquake or flood and all the drama and romance that ensues would be so epic.

I'd love natural disasters also but there have been a lot of players complaining about just the meteors in TS3 that I doubt they'll ever do it. To me it's another challenge to over come.

I don't know if I'd say soap opera... raunchy sitcom might be more accurate. It's Always Sunny in Oasis Springs, Because It's a Plum Desert! or something, I don't know.

Or maybe a trashy daytime talk show. Jerry! Jerry!

It feels like they live in a Stepford or Truman Show world in which no drama happens and everyone smiles in a Joker way all the time. I think my club needs a ghost in it that can set stuff on fire. I do like deviating from the norm, but it is still hard to with this version of the Sims. The game like restricts Sims to only a certain happy lifestyle.

Mine are mostly normal life but I long for drama, soap opera kind of drama. If something out of the ordinary happens, I let it play out. I am pathetic, lol. :D

My sims usually focuses on career and then family! no time for drama :(

Normal with no social life. No reason it just turns out that way.

I've just started really exploring the "soap opera" side of playing. My sims are usually pretty much typical family sims. I've always added a tiny bit of drama here and there, but for the most part they're very normal.

I've just started playing outside my comfort zone. It's fun. But I catch myself falling back into playing normally if I'm not careful. But, hey, 15 years of play style doesn't just go out the window willy nilly like.
