I ruined my game by splitting a family and moving household, leaving all items including the huge collection of "Paint by Reference" pictures in the family inventory - which cause them to blank out (bug, but it happens) - this also meant the house I'd worked hard at decorating/making awesome was somewhat ruined. That's all my doing, but it meant I was totally "CBF" about it, and didn't want to play afterwards, kind of wanted to start from scratch but couldn't find any inspiration.
But the happy part - last night I sat down and built a new house for the son, and I managed to rekindle my enjoyment - played for a few hours - so I'm on a roll again. Basements have been epic as I can build large specialized areas without making the house look weird or waste all the lawn space. Would love to see some spiral stairs though.
Something else I'm doing this time around is I reused a Sim from the old household that wasn't a child, or parent of the son, which was kept young with Potions of Youth, to live out more Aspirations. Having a goal like that really helps me enjoy the game further, and now that I've seen we've got much more mod resources out there, tempted to have another crack at a few mods on the weekend.
