It's probably my favorite game. Who else here plays? What are your favorite things to do? What's your style of playing?
I really love to build houses. I also hoard custom content so this is basically the only game I have installed on my computer atm.
Right now I'm thinking of starting a legacy family but I've never really done that and I don't quite understand how to play one. I usually spend all my time setting up the house and world in general.

I love building houses too! I also hoard custom content, especially outfits. However, I can never stay interested enough in any Sim I create, so I end up just building a house and deleting it and making a new game just to build a new house.

I haven't had a family yet where I don't lose interest before their kids grow up. I make people, move them in, build them a pretty house and then wander off to do something else. I really like NRAAS story progression mod for that reason, because I'll just switch active households when I want to do something new. In the neighborhood I have now, there are only people that I've created so it's really cool to read the SP updates about them.

Awww. I've only ever played the cellphone version. But it's still very addictive.

Can I talk about Sims FreePlay for android? Isn't like Sims 3? I have no idea.

I bet it's similar enough to be relatable.

I tend to just play my characters to get them their dream-job, get them married with children, make them wealthy, and fulfill their lifetime ambitions. Once I get to that point, I get bored. I have a difficult time imagining I'd care much about legacy living, as I get bored by the time I get to raising children.

I love the sims 3! I play it at least 3 hours every day....
I love making towns from scratch. I downloaded create-a-world a month ago, and figured out how to do that. I made a town, and filled it with people and animals :D
I play it also too. After I fill the town, I make a couple, and then I do a legacy with them. I started one not that long ago. I do it alphabetically. (First couple both have A names, their kids have B names, their kids have C names.....) My B generation are teens right now, I haven't been playing them very long yet. (The furthest I've ever gotten was when I played the sims 2, I got to P)
I also love the pets. My legacy family has a great dane, mastiff, and three of their puppies. :D
I haven't done too much with horses yet though....
