Has anyone figured out the kind of life they want for their sims?
Better yet, how about your very first Sim, or family? Have you planned out in your mind, every intricate detail?
Location, occupation, relationships, home life, wealth or lack thereof?
What about their story, or influence on their neighborhood?
What will they be, or what would you hope they have become by the time their last stage has arrived?
Feel free to answer and give ideas or your Sim's life plan if you've already thought it up!
I posted this on ts2.com so I appologize if you've already read it.
I plan on playing my game a little different this time. With the sims 2 I had quite a few families going on (as was everyone else) but because you had to "push things along" I never got the chance to live out my Sims' lives to the death. This time, its going to be different!
I'm not sure how hectic it will be with everything else going around the 'hood but I want to focus on a "care free" legacy. I mean no rules, just simply starting off with a sim throughout the course of their life and then on their deathbed,(the day before its "time to go" hehe, choosing a direct son/daughter or grandchild of there's to follow through with, just to see how far I can go with playing one family.
Now, that being said, since I have no rules, I will let that chosen Sim choose who they (or whoever I believe to be fit hehe) to either pass on their last name (males) or marry into a diff one (female) so as long as I know she/he is a descendant of my first Sim.
My first Sim will most likely be a YA female who I will of course start my game with. I think I will make her attractive, itellegent, and easy to get along with. Of course the fun parts will be exploring the town for the first time, building/decorating her home, making new friends, getting a job etc.
I think I may have her to be very promiscuous and have many lovers. Of course as many friends as well. But I also want her to take her future seriously and create a foundation for her once her youth starts to cease.
That includes finishing school with good grades (if YA can go to college in the game) eventually landing a nice job while having a booming nightlife! Eventually, ill have someone sweep her off her feet and change her way of thinking as in terms of new traits (if possible, I think I read where they can add on more later based on experience etc) where she will settle down and start a family.
Eventually, once she grows old, I'd like her and her hubby (if he hasn't croaked yet teehee) to retire to a nice beachfront house where she will eventually pass peacefully. It will be a sad short time for me but a memorable one. I can then start on her offspring, where I will try and take on a completely new way of living.
I'm thinking of choosing the next "legacy" Sim at birth or childhood, that way I can live out her/his whole life instead of just picking it up at a random stage.
This is just one of the ways I will be playing. Thank goodness for slots or I'd eventually get bored! I'm looking forward to playing all of the difficulty levels as well.
I have been planning my sims, but have yet to plan occupations and stuff, because they haven't been confirmed yet. The only thing I have confirmed is their age, traits, single, married, kids, and a bio.
I am still in the process of what kind of family should I play, but I am thinking between these two: single (man) or a young, childless couple. I may pick the single man.
And I haven't also played their lives to the fullest in the past sim games, because they would whine and constantly need things, and we have to go home almost as soon as we get there. But since they are not supossed to be whiners and we can enjoy them, I am going to go places with my sims. They will hardly be in the house, unless they are really against being outside.
I am gonna play an easy family...no horrible traits yet. I am not gonna make a lot of kleptos...then..ugh....my sim's hard earned money wasted and gone, unless I find them...
But I have families planned of all difficulty levels, but I will start off easy.
About my sims, I can't wait to make people of different shapes and sizes. If I make a man for the family I want to start off, he will be attractive to my standards, and also like Sims3Luva22's, intelligent and easy to get along with. I won't rush to get him married and stuff like in TS2. I would have him marry any girl that isn't ugly. This time, he will date, hopefully have some heartbreaks and happy times. I want him to be successful in life--in his terms--success is different for different people.
And about my next legacy sim, he or she will be my favorite out of all the children, or grandchildren. I usually pick who I like the most.
I really can't wait for this game...so tired of Sims 2...this one is so much better...
But to tell the truth, I bet that I will make families and choose the family I favor. Probably has the cutest boy, or has the most problems...my mind changes at sudden moments.
My first sim will either be a female Young Adult or a single Adult mother with a teen daughter.
I'm not sure. I could write up a whole family and how ill make them look the traits im going to give them...how rich or poor they are going to be etc, but ill probally will just do somthing different...once i have the game. lol Thats how I did for the sims 2. hmm lets think...if i were to write up somthing..ill make a single mom with three boys. Two will be just pure badness..if thats possible...and one will be a sweet angel. Ill just watch and see if the two boys will bully or annoy their brother etc. And ill make the angel brother the oldest...and see how that works
.
im spontaneous with my sims. i always think about them on the spot.
I haven't really thought about it much but i want my sims life to be fun and exciting, and never boring. {yes}
Well, it isn't too detailed yet, but I am planning on making all my family and friends, but have everything set in the future! I love the idea of seeing what would happen to all the people I know if I ran their future.
First, I will create me as I am now and age me up one stage. Then I will do the same for family and friends.. It will take awhile probably. I already know that I want my house to be along the beach, and as far away from my parents' as possible.. I don't like the idea of virtual them looking at virtual me through my windows. {blink}
I have already started planning traits for everybody, too!
