What happened in your first ever Sims family?
I was just thinking about when I first started playing The Sims. I was quite young, maybe 6 or 7. I remember making myself in CAS (or choosing a blonde head, lol) and cheating for money to get a nice ...

I started with the TS1 tutorial, so Bob and Betty Newbie. I actually don't remember what happened to them. I think I just played them until I got the hang of it. In TS1, I remember that I created some bachelor who lived in a mansion and had or adopted a child who never aged up because kids didn't in TS1. I also had a house of three roommates who were all dating each other. Actually, most of my households in TS1 had like 5 boyfriends or girlfriends (or a combo of both) because others only got jealous if they literally saw what was happening in the same room (yes, a bit like TS4). Therefore, a whole bunch of my sims were total players. I also had a wannabe Superstar who looked somewhat like Courtney Love and who would do anything to be famous.
In TS2, I liked the intro of genetics and aging so I played a random family as they got really rich and moved into a huge mansion that I built. Their house was really too big and it took forever to walk around but the dad was a doctor who got to around the top of his field. The mom might have been a business exec. Their kids all got into private school through schmoozing. Later on, I played their kids as they went to university. The son was a straight A student in a posh fraternity who ended up dating this beautiful, wealthy girl. The daughter was nerdier and was going to be a science geek. I can't remember if the daughter found love; I'm not sure if I got to that point with her. I remember building fraternities and sororities.
In TS3, I think my first family was a blond guy and his redheaded wife who worked in the culinary career. I don't remember what he did, maybe tech. They had a child and they threw parties that Don Lothario, the Calientes and co would attend. That household started out modestly. I think I moved onto other houses because I don't remember more than the partying. I think Don tried to hit on that guy's wife which would not be surprising.
In TS4, I started with one random sim who I dropped into the game to see what would happen. He was a blond Swedish guy who got a job in IT. I said that he was brought into town because he was transferred by a large international IT company, so he was new to Willow Creek. He bought Single Streamlet where his descendents still live in this day as part of my rotation. He married Summer Holiday because he hit it off with her when she visited him in the Welcome Wagon. They had two sons, one was a gay genius nerd who went into IT like his father. The other son was a cool rocker who married a French model and moved to Oasis Springs. The grandchildren of those sons are still in my game. The gay one adopted a daughter who recently died of old age. She has a son who is an astronaut living in that house and a daughter who married Hugo Villareal and moved into his estate. Each of them have kids now.
The rocker guy's son is also a musician like him. That son married Sofia Bjergsen and they are boho hipster musicians. They have twin boys one of whom is named Lars and who is incredibly artsy even as a child. He dresses like Jackson Pollock and is clearly destined for a creative life. I don't know what the other twin will be like. They are both still kids. They all interact with a bunch of other characters in my game. I decided to play the town broadly rather than to focus on one specific house.
