What happened in your game today?

Not really a "What happened in my game today" thing. But I've really been enjoying creating a full-on family tree for my recent gameplay.

EllupelluelluIt's a slow process, but still at it. Generation 3 heir is going to be a teenager soon.

I don't have a storyline laid out, but sometimes the game itself creates its own story. One thing I like about having Neighborhood Stories active.

I named my new Legacy gameplay family with a surname of Sims. I named the founder, Geordi. He would start the Legacy out in one world and each Generation would live in a different world. He was put in the Astronaut career and lived in Willow Creek. At the gym, he connected most with Xochitl Luna, a premade that came with the San Sequoia world. The backstory was she lived with her mom and her child. Her husband had passed away in a fire. I had Geordi marry Xochitl and her daughter, Karmine (a premade), became his stepdaughter. The two go onto having three children. A boy and a set of twin girls. The son, Vince, I chose to be the Generation 2 heir. Xochitl was in the Athlete Career, for which the game placed her in, not I. I decide to put Vince in the same career, but the opposite branch when he became a young adult. I move him out of Willow Creek and into Oasis Springs. Like his father met his mother at the gym, Vince meets Aoi Takeuchi, a game generated Sim. They are compatible, so I hook them up and they get married. They had two sons, William whom I nicknamed Will and Jason whom I nicknamed Jay. Jay is the Generation 3 heir and is currently at the child lifestage. My plans for him when he becomes a young adult is to move him to Magnolia Promenade and into the Detective career. Newcrest is being used for family places. I currently have a Sims church with a cemetery (created before the Life & Death pack), and a Sims Museum where I will place all the career collectibles once the founder/heir/heiress passes away.

Going back to Xochitl and her daughter, Karmine. When Geordi married Xochitl and they moved in together, I didn't control anyone, but Geordi unless I needed to. Karmine was at the child lifestage when they met. She eventually aged up to a teenager. At school on her own, from the game, she met Maira Watson. The game put them in a romantic relationship. I thought how fun this was my first gay couple in the game. When Karmine aged up to an adult, I moved her back home in San Sequoia with Maira. I put them on unplayed and allowed the game to do its thing with the two. Eventually, I get a notification that Karmine married a guy name Taku Akiyama and was like, "Wait, what?" I guess Karmine liked both genders. But was sad to see that there was a negative mark between her and Maira in her profile. I decided to move Maira back into her parents' house as she was living with Karmine and her new hubby. Awkward. I eventually decided to follow Maira through notifications. She ended up marrying another woman and having a science baby. Again, everything done by the game.

Back to Karmine. She lives in her house she grew up in with her hubby, Taku. They end up having a child as well as adopting a child.

For my family tree, I wanted to make sure I included all family members of the relationships my Sims family been through. With that, I backtracked and added Maira Watson's as well as Taku Akiyama's. It was fun to see how the Goth family is even connected in the end. I currently have 85 Sims logged on my family tree and I'm only on finishing up Generation 2. 😅
