How many times….

How many times do you guys restart a challenge if you are doing one? Cause I sort of want to restart my not so berry challenge but I’m already in the 7th gen. I just kind of feel like restarting. Not sure why. Anybody else feel this way sometimes?

  • Go ahead and start a new challenge, just put the other one on the back burner so to speak till you are ready to play it again. At least that is what I do. Just take a few notes to help you to recall what is going on.
  • I vote for restarting if you really want to, though I'd suggest keeping a copy of your current one. My first attempt at the NSB challenge I deleted to restart, then regretted it, haven't been able to get back into it since.
  • I kind of want to restart but the only gen I don’t want to redo is the purple one. Which is ironic seeing as that’s my favorite color. It’s just so far the hardest one to get all the stuff done and I just don’t look forward to doing it. So right now I just started a normal family and see how that goes.

  • @wylmite1986 I know what you mean, I only got up to generation 4 and really wouldn't want to do red again, it was so tedious.
  • If you feel strongly that you want to restart, I would personally follow that urge. I've had to restart my Main Save so many times, I've lost count. For the most part it's been beneficial. One restart I did was after I learned from other players just how to have my Rock Star win Best Song Accolades. So, of course, I had to restart so he could earn his celebrity points while busy churning out songs written on the instruments available in the game. I just did a Roll-Back on this latest Main Save. I decided it was no longer a Flashback Save to take my young celebrity to high school. I had the Teens I wanted in my game graduate early upon the invitation. They got the special trait for it and are now in Uni, I'm feeling way more confident about this roll-back, too. Had to avert the Festering Grudge my star's fiancée developed against him. That's no way to start a marriage, which was coming up after their third term at uni. So far, so good!

    Follow your heart. You can always save the current one and set it aside, for now.

    I start over constantly and it supposedly annoys people who I'm friends with. But I'm not letting it bug me anymore. If you wanna start over, I say do it. :)
