Why create a new save?
I'm curious about this. Am I in the minority since I sometimes start a whole new game? And, why do we do this? The game is so vast that it almost makes no or little sense to actually create a new game...

I have only one save that I have played about 3,5 years. I like to have all my sims there, so that they can socialise with each other and I like to see how their stories intertwine with each other. At first I just played many families, but now I have three main families that are like legacy families and then I have background sims whom I play if I want to.
I find having one save to be easier because I wouldn't have time or energy to work on many different saves. Sometimes I'd like to start a new save, but then I remind myself that I can change my current save and add the stuff I want there.
Yeah, that's the whole point of my question, I think. So instead of starting over from scratch (so to speak), just add new stuff, let the family you have become bored with go on existing autonomously and start fresh with a new family.
This way, that old family doesn't just sit in silence waiting for you to pick them again (which in my case rarely happens). They may pop up on your doorstep one day and you'd be like "oh hey! I remember you!!! OMG! What has your family been up to???" Then, you can pop in on them to see what changes have happened
It's a whole thing, I guess.
