Premades in your game
I've been playing for years but never played premade households until a month ago when I accidentally deleted my save(rip). I suddenly had the urge to play with the premades and in the process, I'm le...

I’ve only started playing the premades recently, too (in Sims 4). I figured since they’re planning an update, I’d like to know how they are currently vs the update. Before anyone starts a rotational save like this, let me give a little advice I just learned the hard way. Go through and decide which households you want to play and mark them as played before you actually spend a full day with anyone (favoriting them alone might work but I’m not sure). You want to avoid the relationship culling that happens at 3am to unplayed households.
So I’ve been playing all the households with teens which is 14 households in my game. I’ve just gotten started so they’re all still teens and it’s fun to imagine who will couple up with whom. Then when they get their 3rd trait I’m sure all that will change. I use WW so they have attraction and it helps me decide who they are interested in (combined with whims, and I use Bienchen’s whim overhaul so yes I do get interesting whims.)
I gave Cassandra Goth purple eyes to make her a little more interesting to play (I’ve always found her boring in TS2, sorry.) I also gave her a slightly darker skin tone and Bella a darker one more like her original TS1 skin. Cassandra is really into Rohan Elderberry, but the feeling isn’t mutual.
I changed Malcolm Landgraab’s hair to the regular blonde shade his parents have. He and Kaori Nishidake are extremely attracted to one another. I don’t think I’ll allow it long term, but it’s certainly interesting for now. Nancy quit the criminal career but she entered the law career, so I imagine she’s a shady kind of attorney. I replaced their house with a Palm Springs build from the gallery and they totally have that vibe.
Wolfgang Munch and Rashidah Watson are super cute together and I think they’re going to last. Gunther likes Ulrike, but he might end up with Maaike. I kinda like the idea of them turning their friendship into something more.
Morgan Fyres finds lots of guys extremely attractive but for some reason they are totally repelled by her. She and Rohan Elderberry were involved but he isn’t as into her. I could see her dating Duane Talla. Anyway, Siobhan was going after Salim Benali last I played, but she’s still stringing Sergio along.
Sofia Bjergsen had her first kiss with Hugo Villareal but that’s not going to last.
Hugo Villareal is really into Yuki Behr, and she finds him attractive, plus they’re both loners, so it could work. Luna is being wooed by several guys but she’s not really interested in anyone in particular. I figure she’s not ready for that yet - she is childish, after all. Her mother was such a big influence in her life, but when she “disappeared”, Luna felt lost and it stunted her growth. I noticed Jacques has pink/red eyes so I gave them to Max as well so he can hopefully pass them on to his kids, if he has any. (I love having interesting genetics to watch, if you can tell.)
I built a new townhouse for Candy and Yuki because I couldn’t find one I liked on the gallery. I kept some of the furniture & decor they had and let them inspire me for the build, along with their traits and skills. So it’s got an industrial edge and Yuki has a cute tv/gaming area in her bedroom. I think Candy will remain single for a while, but like I said above, Yuki may end up with Hugo. They’ve been seen in public being romantic with each other when I’ve played other houses which is so cute. She also likes Wolfgang.
Darling Walsh is dating a living statue NPC, so I’m not sure if she’s a premade but her name is Marlene Walker. It’s interesting because I was thinking of changing Darling’s name to Darlene when she becomes a young adult. Darlene and Marlene. Akira and Miko seem like they’d make a cute couple, but Akira is a collector and he’s really better suited to live in Mt. Komorebi while Miko will probably never leave the city.
I also rebuilt the Kealoha house where Duane Talla lives in Sulani. (By the way, why on earth does Makoa have such high fishing skill when he’s a Child of the Ocean and gets sad while fishing or eating fish!? Rude.) Duane is most attracted to Cassandra (I can’t remember how she feels about him) and I could see that happening.
In a different save, Eleanor Elderberry won the lottery but she didn’t win it in this save, oh well. So I rebuilt their house to be a tiny home with lots of outdoor space since the grandparents both love the outdoors. Space was not sacrificed in the kitchen because Eleanor loves to cook and Rohan will, too, as a perfectionist. Rohan has the ladies throwing themselves at him, but he’s most into Luna and Sofia (and Darling, but he won’t get anywhere with her.)
Kaori Nishidake still likes Kiyoshi Ito, but she likes Malcolm more. It was hilarious because every time she invited one of them over, the other one would also show up or invite her out. It was usually Malcolm blowing up Kiyoshi’s spot. But Kaori is adventurous so she wants to keep up with them both.
Now I have to play through the Itos and then the Watsons and Chopras in HoB. Then I will spend another round getting them ready for uni. I think I will send them in 2-3 batches.
With the Chopras, my theory is that Rahul’s father died of hysteria. Lavina and Rahul both dislike comedy for that reason.
