Yes it's a made up word. But I am the kind of person that keeps restarting everything 1000 times.This time... I can't decide if I am going to continue with my main gameplay and just make my vampire family famous, on top of everything else ORIf I am to start over.And then if I start over, should I start with a single sim or a family or friends or... I find starting a truly Single sim is usually quite boring at first. BUT if I give her a friend or a roommate or a lover or a spouse, or a kid... There will be too many sims very soon (I rarely enjoy playing more than 3 or maybe four sims at once, too much to keep track of) and I have to throw out some of my starter sims to make room...No I am not really asking for advice, I just want to vent! :smiley:

Oof I suffer from that too. Game only really seems fun with the starting part (basic necessities, no money, and something that can maybe resemble a house if you squint) and then building up. Once the lot is completely decorated however.....I don't know what to do. Building is basically most of the fun for me.There should be a support group for these type of Simmers

I hear you.The thing is that WHEN I really find a character I like (no matter what game) I get really attached. But I don't want to play the Voght family in Get Famous just yet, after all they are all already extremely successful, rich, and have 8+ in all meaningful skills.I am thinking of creating a young trio of friends, but I am not sure how to split it. Actor? Influencer? SOmething else? Part of me wants one of the friends to just be a normal Joe (or Joanne) and have a normal boring job...

I feel like this is a norm for me. I restart so many times, it’s not even funny just because I run out of ideas what type of life I want my sims to live or because I’m not really fully satisfied. I love when sims are working their way up the latter then I end up being tempted to restart and do it again.

Never heard of this :) I still play the save I started back in 2014. I'm playing all households so if I'm very active I might age everyone up over a couple RL months. Some of the elders were young adults when I started. Uhm, ok, whenever there is a new pack I might start a new game just to test that the install works, and I'm eager playing something fresh for a few hrs, but then I can't help returning to my old save :)

Well I am somewhere along the way.A reality life streamer who will film her way from being very out of shape to Body Builder stardom (not so crass in her mind, at this point she just wants to Simtube her diet and workout to motivate herself. Might lead to fame, but it's not what she has in mind right now).I just can't decide if I should pair her up with someone else or not.

I hate suffering from Restartitis.

I always wondered what the condition was called. Now that it has a name, perhaps we can form a self-help group for fellow sufferers? :D

I restart a lot too. One day I want to create an entire save's world from scratch but it's going to be SO much effort.

Yeah I am leaning towards that for now. Or at least half way: Put in enough good venues, and fiddle with a few relationships (make the Caliente household... "fun").

See you at the support group! I think my issue is not being able to maintain the focus of why I created a family in the first place. I lose the momentum or get distracted with a new storyline...

I usually get bored after 2-3 generations, especially if the family has become wealthy during that time, and/or the theme I started with no longer applies. I also tend to struggle with large households
