Who’s pre-building?

I never build in advance. I like to see what the surrounding neighbourhood is like and then decide what sort of venues would be most suitable.

Concur. Advance building is a recipe for your work to either look very out of place or need extensive repairs.

I downloaded lots of lots from the gallery, bc I suck at building from scratch, and just updated things. So mostly I just edited my worlds in this new save. Added restaurants, fixed the menus. I've got a bunch of new sims. And I got a nice big house for the new main family placed in Henford. Maybe I'll have someone else in the new world, but I wanted to prep with what i had already.

I don't really prebuild since I want the lot to be perfect fit for its place and sims living there and stories to play in that neighborhood

but I have couple builds in my library I might potentially use if i find a suitable spot since I have some leftovers from countless Willow Creek and Newcrest attempts

The reason I have been pre building is because I tend to get overwhelmed with everything available. I want to play? I want to build, but I want to make a family where to start, HOW to start?? Since I don’t have a ton of free time like I used to when I lived a more carefree lifestyle, I like to squeeze in all the gameplay I can when I can — anything to make it easier and more enjoyable when I do have it all installed.
I’ve built a few shell homes that I can customize further when I get the pack but the foundation is all there.

So excited!

Meee! I built a lovely family home in Windenburg <3

I never, ever prebuild. But I am eyeballing this thread in case anyone mentions building townhouses I can yank off the gallery later.

I have no talent for building, so no.

I'm thinking about it.
I downloaded images of Craftsman styled homes for inspiration.

I don’t ever usually do this but my anticipation is so high so I’m building houses in New Crest that I hope to move over into the new neighborhood. I’m really hoping it works out cause usually like to build to compliment the terrain which is hard to anticipate through the pictures shared.

That’s a good idea. I never thought to prebuild.

When I get a new world it does influence the houses I either build or download.

I’m giving the prebuild a go.

Love play have you a. Good look at the neighborhoods so you can have a look and give yourself a loose skeleton to at least start with when you do get the game. Then just move it over! I get so excited it’s just too much and I end up starting over ten times in any given area (CAS, play or build) anyway so. This was fun for me.
