I have seen people posting that they enjoy playing Sims, so I thought I'd start a discussion thread.
Last year I started a project to build lots of different homes and buildings in Sims 4 - I had a few months break during the winter, and I re-started it a couple of months ago. I've finished building now and I'm doing a play through. I replaced most of the pre made homes and households and made a lot more. I built homes in various designs including Art Deco, Gothic, a 1960s bungalow, a Christmas themed cottage, a house boat, a lighthouse, and a space shuttle style home. I built restaurants including 50s style diners, a cowboy saloon one, a star wars themed one, a Chinese restaurant, a Japanese one and an Indian one in the shape of the Taj Mahal. I also built several museums, including a science & technology museum, a transport museum, a natural history museum (in the shape of an elephant), one in a castle, a space exhibition on top of an apartment block, and a sea life centre with an aquarium section.
I also created lots of new sims to populate the homes I built, and as I don't like the "townies" the game generates I've been editing them in household management and changing their names. I like to choose names to suit characters or that have a theme, so the residents Oasis Springs are all aliens and have space related names, most residents in Sulani are mermaids and have sea related names, many city residents have City names (such as Vienna Street) I renamed the local mail carriers Angel Messenger and Hermes Letterman, and my sim household employs a gardener called Heather Gardener.
The packs I have are:
Best: Dream home decorator (great furniture, best interactive career) Tiny Living (great lot perks) Island Living (the most beautiful, has mermaids, and the island life aspiration stops Sims getting tense) Dine Out (I love building restaurants!) City living, Journey to Batuu (just for the droids & lightsabres)
Ok: Home chef hustle, Nifty Knitting, Spa Day, Horse Ranch, Crystal Creations, Vintage Glamour, Cottage Living, Discover University (not for degrees, only like the robot building)
Least favourite: Vampires, Get to work, Cats & dogs, Snowy escape, Laundry Day, Eco Lifestyle
