What life span do you play?
I've only ever done normal but I'm looking to try long now to see if I like it and not become bored.

I've been playing on long (or aging off entirely) since the Sims 3. The first family I ever created in the Sims 2 was a total disaster. When my sim aged up to an adult, I remember thinking, "Why does she look so old now?" Needless to say, none of my sims' goals were accomplished, and the social bunny visited them often.
I play semi-rotationally and only age people up when they've accomplished their goals. I tend to get really attached to one sim at a time, though. One time, I made Loki. I've long since lost the save file, but he's still one of my favorites.
