What era/century does your sim(s) live in?

I was playing a historical legacy family for a little bit. I started in the late 19th century and kept track of what "year" it was based on what year I determined each person was born based on the storyline. I tried to change the hairstyles and clothing subtly as time went by. I have no CC, so it got really hard by the 1920s since the silhouette is a certain way. I thought it was going to be really fun, but I got frustrated because the look wasn't right. I got seasons right as the 20s were ending, so they had one last New Years bash before the Stock Market crashed. They were a rich family living in a Victorian Mansion but lost all their money. The way I originally started the family was with two sisters. One sister got turned into a vampire. I intended for her to take back the family home because she "inherited it" (aka after the family lost the house, she secretly bought it) and then live through the decades paralleling her sisters descendants.

I also tried to play it like world events were happening. Like during the late 1910s, the oldest son "went to war" and a couple of the family members died from the Spanish Flu.


Anyways, I stopped playing a couple months ago but now I want to play that family again!
