From these pics I would say we all love our sims games but my question to you is how much do you love your individual sims ? If you don't understand the question then please pass on. For the rest of us how involved are you in their lives, do you cry when they die and celebrate with them when they marry and the little ones come along ? How far would you go to keep those sims with you ?
I completely understand what you mean by that and I've even wondered sometimes if I maybe lost my mind because of this phenomenon lol
I remember sitting at the dinner table one evening, talking to my husband about 'the children', when my daughter looked at me, narrowing her eyes, and asked: "Just to make sure, are you talking about us or about your Sims children?"
I must add I grieved over one of my sims dying only once (I have no idea why, I love them all but this guy somehow was really special). I always move on to a next heir, so if my sims die they're old, had a good and complete life and they're not in my household anymore. My focus just changed to the next heir.
But when playing a generation my sims all are very much alive to me and have their own specific characters (developed in my own mind really, the game goes beyond just what's happening on my screen).
My favourite heir, Elijah:
