- I prefer playing larger households since it's what I'm used to. I like having lots of different sims in the house so I don't get bored of playing the same sims all the time and have different experiences happening with each one. (I hope my explanation made sense)
- I prefer small only because I just cant manage large households- I find them far too stressful! Autonomy off feels stressful because there are too manage sims to micro manage all the time, and autonomy on just means my sims are all doing weird and unhelpful things that I have to keep cancelling (eg I'm close to actually starving to death and there's a freshly prepared meal in the kitchen, but yes, let's forget about impending death and go and play on the pc... :s )
Any more than 4 sims and my brain starts to fry! I always used to play big households in previous sims games and really enjoyed it though. - pinneduphair7 years agoSeasoned AceI prefer large families, even though it can be stressful. I have a large family in real life (and that can be stressful too :D ).
- I prefer smaller households, so that I can actually focus on the lives of each sim. I find that if I have too many, I don't have time to have them do anything.
- vrouwe_jess7 years agoNew SpectatorDefinitely large families. One can never have enough family members!
- No more than two sims per gaming household is my preference. More than that and the game becomes more like one of those ethological overcrowding utopian rat colony experiments from the 1960s... I start getting behavioral sink, losing empathy toward them, and I start figuring out unusual ways to kill off my sims.
- jupkmn7 years agoNew AceI don't know which one to answer, because I rotate a lot the way I play. Usually when I'm trying something new in the game, like a different career or something like that, I play with small families, usually just one sim lol, but I also like to play with large families because it feels more challenging and it's fun to do parties and stuff with them.
- Lonewolf10447 years agoSeasoned AceI perfer small families as it is easier for me to handle and keep track of thier needs.
- I use the settings in MCCC to make woohoo 'risky' so the size of families in my game is all a matter of random chance and outside of my control. I prefer "smaller" families, but end up with households approaching the cap every few generations because of the random thing.
- JaiSea7 years agoNew AceI play rotationally, so mine varies depending on the wants, needs, characteristics, space, and financial situation for each family. I can have as little as 2 people in a certain family up to 7. I don't think I've ever had 8 except when playing the 100 baby challenge. I'm the youngest of 6 kids in my family, so I generally love playing with a big family though.
