Tell me about your big saves
My favorite thing in the sims has always been playing with a big cast of characters, creating links between families. I like playing in a very loose rotation, always aging off, jumping from households...

These are my sims that I started playing in 2015. This is an old story, but it still continues to this very day.
I refused to have them get married and start families because we did not have toddlers and family game play at the time.
So they were pretty much Career/Party focused.
Olivia Banks is my main sim and everyone else is her friend or a friend of her friends.
I play them all and intertwine their lives
By the time we got toddlers and the packs I felt I needed, (Parenthood, Discover University, and High School Years) this group had grown to 24 sims. I felt it was time to start playing families.
Instead of matching them up, I decided to age them all down to toddlers in CAS and gave them parents.

But this was way back in 2017
Fast forward to 2021 and my first 3 toddlers have grown up and graduated Uni.
And they wait while the other sims who are still children, teens, and a few YAs go through their education.

Every time we get a new pack, my sims are put on hold because I am testing out the new pack and creating new lots in test saves.
Sometimes I set the game aside because I can't stand the bugs or a few annoying new features. High School Years was the reason for the latest Sims break. I had to create and test for the new pack, and I couldn't stand Fears because they wouldn't turn off.
These are the sims waiting for me to get back to playing High School Years with them.
Six of them will be living in this high school dorm that I was using as private school housing before I got High School Years.
And now I get to use Growing Together as the rest of them go through Elementary School, High School, and University.
I won't get to see infants until they start getting married and having babies. My first three sims missed out on Growing Together for their younger years, but it's okay timing for the rest.
