I think I’ve blown through 25+ generations by now with 330 Sims, all starting with 4-6 random Sims I created. The very first one was named Harding Costain ? My town is still swimming in Costains, Sterlings, Solittos, and Trevelians. I occasionally add in a few new randos when needed. Each family line usually has their “thing;” like the Costains are fresh-faced, beach-loving prepsters and the Solittos like to doll up in lots of makeup and wear all black.
I pick one household as a favorite and usually play them most of the time until another favorite strikes my fancy. Usually it’s one that inspires me to try a new career, hobby, town, type of house, or maybe a particular couple just seems cute together. Right now all the favorites are wealthy Sulani beach dwellers that like to gloat about their illustrious Britechester degrees ?
I play with aging on for everybody. Along the way, I hop around to other branches of the family tree to make matches and woo hoo to keep the family line going. Also, when anyone ages up into a kid, I go CAS their household so they match the family theme. It’s cool to have a bustling ecosphere of Sims with unique looks and personalities, but at first glance I still know who is who!
