I have a save where I removed most of the townies and replaced them with sims that I created, so I made my own neighborhood pretty much. My main household that I have been playing for a while now consists of Jamal and Bella Baker who have 5 kids, two teens, two twin toddlers, and a new baby. Jamal was a mobster when he met Bella, who was a social media star. At first, Bella didn't like Jamal's job and was always afraid of him getting hurt, but right before she got pregnant with Scarlett, the oldest teen, he got promoted to Boss. She doesn't worry as much now, but Jamal pretty much works from home, and Bella is now a stay at home mom. I am at the point where I can't decide if I want to focus more on Scarlett and her teen years and have something scandalous happen, such as her falling in love with an older guy, or her hook up with a random guy and get pregnant. I also thought about going in a different direction and having either Jamal cheat or die, but I have had this family for so long, and I don't know if I want to risk it! What do you think I should do?
I always end up having a storyline in my head and following it, and that usually keeps me from getting bored, but now I am at a crossroads where I have two really good ideas and want something dramatic to happen, but I just can't decide which direction to go in.
