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

How fun would it have been if we could play legacies and actually see the neighborhood change with the generations. I wish that the devs had skipped all the fake backgrounds completely so we had control over our own neighborhoods and world. I used to play different time periods on Windenberg Island but it recently became invaded with random visiting sims wondering through. A person can only delete so many sims before just giving up. Maybe I will be able to play my way again if they ever release Sims 5.
