How do y'all play Sims 4

I'd like to imagine myself to be a storyteller, so I mainly play legacies with stories that I've come up with. Once I've told the story, I generally abandon the save. I'm trying to get into long-term gameplay, though! I LOVE rotational gameplay, too, and have shared my tracker for that here on the forums. My casual rotational gameplay saves tend to last longer than my casual gameplay saves.
