Hardest Part of Creating a Sim?
What part of creating a new Sim do you struggle with? For me, it’d have to be naming them. It’s not that I can’t find any names, it’s that I have trouble deciding what fits, especially when the Sim is...

To be fair, I struggle with names, too. With every game. I have genuinely put down a game or just sat there for minutes thinking of them. I have used randomize as well, but after a while you feel you have seen too many of the same ones. If it is really bad, there are a few websites with lists of names I visit.
This is just part of my main problem: inspiration. I need an idea of what I want to do to base my Sims, builds, and gameplay around. Names are ultimately a part of this, and inspiration is ridiculously fickle. Sometimes it flows like water, at others it is a mere trickle of thick molasses.
So the most difficult part of CAS for me is figuring out just what I want to make. Detail edits can be pretty annoying, but I actually have to be interested in the Sim first. If I had to pick a runner up, it would be detail edit stuff like reproducing Sims or synchronizing details of several versions of the same Sim. It is just tedious and I like to avoid it if at all possible until the point it harms my fun.
