Same here! Gen three is usually teens or so before I stop lol - OneAdorkableGirl6 years agoNew AceI wasn't sure which one to pick, because for me, it's hard to let them pass on. So, I get to a point where I slow down their aging, especially if I am enjoying their "stories". I don't write out stories anymore, but I do give some of them story lines to play out within that generation. So, usually this makes it difficult to move onto the next generation because I'm enjoying the save a lot and don't want to move forward until I feel that the founder, or the children have accomplished a lot of different goals that I've set for them in terms of story during specific life-stages.

I know them feels! I usually slow their aging too, in the legacy I have at the moment I'm not turning on aging until they become pregnant. I don't want my sims to be old before they have babies but I'm also not going to drag it out forever so the sim has heaps of money before they have kids
I had a founder once who had basically the perfect life story, married, kids and everything perfect. I didn't want that to end! - I have started so many legacy families and never made it past gen 2. I get bored so easly with them, it's a bit frustrating. I'm trying to add more challenges to it like random traits, aspirations and jobs for everyone. This helps a bit to keep me on it, cause I really want to stick with one family for multiple generations.
- I have played sims 4 since it was released, but I could never get further from 3rd generation and me ending that far was just once and then my save got corrupted. I can admit, that time my PC was old too. I have started a new save few days ago....I will see....I really want to get attached to my sims....
- Every time I start a new game I'm like ''this is the one I'm gonna play for 10 gens! I'm so motivated!'' and then I get bored maybe around the third or fourth gen. I am the queen of procrastination and instead of playing I focus on doing the oh-so-important things like making a family tree on Plum Tree App for every single family in all my worlds (literally what I spent yesterday doing because I have no life when I don't have school)
- I’m close, like generation 8 I think. I’m holding off on finishing it as I think I want the household to explore StrangerVille, but I don’t have the pack yet. I’m working on other saves at the moment. Sims 3 I think I made it to generation 10? I didn’t keep track, but I know I kept a single family going for a LONG time.
- Duhgirl2u26 years agoSeasoned AceCurrently working on an Alphabetcy Challenge (26 generations) but I'm only at generation C's beginning on it. I'm terrible at picture taking so I just play them without making stories. It'd be boring without pictures I think :P
- Perthelia6 years agoSeasoned AceI made it to gen 7 in Sims 3 before the save became too unwieldy and unplayable.
I also made it to gen 7 in Sims 4 once with a family I loved and the whole theme was that they basically lived in a complete craphole (scrubby lawn, ugly house, etc etc). At that time there wasn't much in the actual game in the way of grungy items so I used a lot of cc to make the place look like a junkyard even though they were sim-millionaires at that point. I would add another eyesore to the property every time they hit a milestone; I think the last one I did was to put a pile of used tires on the lawn. It was hilarious (well, to me, anyway) and I loved that family but managed to accidentally delete the save when changing computers.
Those are as far as I've gotten in actual legacy play; all my other attempts from Sims 2 to Sims 4 have fizzled around gen 3. In fact I have a scored legacy and a random legacy sitting idle with Gen 3 kids. But in my rotation the first gen 5 babies are starting to be born.
