Couldn’t agree more - I implemented most of these same techniques in my own legacy save for the first time, and I’ve never been so attached or had so much fun, consistently. 🙌🏼 Lore + imperfections + drama is the only way 😌
Yesss I know exactly what you mean!! I'm so glad this resonated with you, and if you ever want to share I'd love to hear about the drama in your saves 👀
Such good advice - I definitely fall into the habit of making everyone have perfect, happy lives
Oh for sure!! I always used to play like that and I'd get bored of the game after 2 weeks, but now I'm so invested in all my saves I can't stop playing
Lore i think is so important I normally dont play with the same family often and i once i started using lore and rotating households with ones I've created and other households i started playing on one save file for longer and i absolutely adore it. In my current household my teen sim hes in uni taking care of his child half sister after their parent's committed unalive
This is so true!! and playing with rotational households is a game changer - omg your current household story sounds so crazy, I hope your sims make it through
I’m currently doing a story about 8 females who decided to pulled their money together to build a community. Each sim have their own house on the same lot. ( using the rental pack) and each sim has a different skill the can help another sim build up their skills. They make money to build up their house and business. I made each have different personalities and jump from house to house to help each build up their skill and business. It’s the tiny town challenge by deligracy.
my current household (TW DRUGS)
I wanted to make the big brother challenge because I saw it on a video. I never thought that, months later, I’d still be playing the family. It started with a drug addict mom, a child boy and a toddler girl. Basically, the mom just drank and did drugs and didn’t take care of her children, so the big brother, Noah, took care of his little sister, Clover.
He also earned the money for food and pay the bills, because his mom didn’t work. And the saddest part is that she used his money to get more drugs. The mom got pregnant again by her drug dealer, I actually didn’t plan that but I went with it. She gave birth to another girl and I named her Poppy. I was going with the flowers theme.
Noah became a teenager and when Poppy was a toddler, their mom d’ed of an over’ose. Leaving Noah to take care of his two sisters in a bad trailer.
Now? Noah is nearly an adult, married to his childhood best friend, his first son just turned into a child and his infant son is about to be a toddler. Clover moved out and is living with her fiance and she’s a famous painter. Poppy still lives at home until she’s done with college and she aims to be a famous actress.
Noah and his wife are famous social media parents and have 110k to spend on their kids. They remodelled the trailer to look cozier, with a second floor for the family and the place never looked more charming.
I’m so proud of my gameplay, I took so many photos and the house is filled with them. Also! Noah, Clover, and Poppy are all valedictorians and graduated with honours. :’D I love this family SO much!!
That's such a sweet story 😢.
@@SistaBear update!
Clover got married and is expecting her fist baby, a girl! Poppy graduated college and is now a 3-star actress and she's currently preparing herself to move out and begin her life. Poppy is still happily single and she doesn't have plans to become a mother, I think she'd rather focus on her career and have flings for now :)
@@Rina_96 YAY! Good for your sims! Real proud of Poppy.
@@Rina_96Omg update?? I’m so invested in the sims I’m so sorry 🥹 did Clover have the baby?? How are they??
@@Jasmine-pp7hl i've stopped playing ever since the new patch because nearly all my mods broke and im waiting for RPO to be updated so i can continue playing. 😭😭😭it's been weeks since I turned on the game and I miss my household so much!!! last time I left them Clover was still pregnant.
The best advice I’ve heard about making lore, thank you for not gatekeeping QUEEEERN
AHH I'm so glad the tips are helpfulll
For me right now rotational gameplay is a big thing I do, I have 4-5 households that are all important to the world, and it's been actually SO fun to see those families randomly spawn while playing other family! For example, I have 3 boarding schools for spellcasters and I alternate between them, and it kinda helps that Glimmerbrook is so small, and they just keep walking around from time to time and it gives me an opportunity to do interesting unexpected social interactions. The last time I played, a big drama/tragedy happened in one of the schools, and a particular boy was feeling very sad but as a loner wasn't talking to anyone. And then I saw a girl from another school walk by, I made him talk to her, and I am so into it now, I feel like they could become great friends or even fall in love when they grow up.
And second thing for me is to always "listen to the game" instead of having my own solid plans, like with that tragedy I mentioned -- it was basically caused by a glitch because of the mod or the update ahaha BUT I decided to leave it be and deal with it, and it became such a plot twist that spiced up the story a great deal! Now I might have to create some villains for the story to put the blame for the accident on them xD
these tips are so gooooodddd!!
I agree, giving your sims a backstory and connections in game makes it so easy to invest in the game play. I love rotational gameplay too and have always wondered how other players structure it. Do you keep all the households you rotate through in the 'my household' tab or just the current one and mark the others unplayed?.. I hope this makes sense 😅
Yess backstories are essential!! So I structure it by keeping my rotational households as "played". And usually when I have MCCC story progression on, I allow changes in my played households so that they still have those autonomous pregnancies/engagements/etc. I hope that makes sense + answers your question
love the house you are using
ahh thank you!!
I just created a new save and this is so helpful!! Thank you so much ❤️

My current household:
[TW drugs]
A drug addict who didn't earn any money slept with men to get a roof over her head for the night. Eventually she got pregnant and gave birth to a girl she named after her fav drug. When the baby was a few years old, her mother died of an accidental overdose. The mother's best friend took care of the baby. The best friend had two twins of her own around the same age as her dead friend's kid. The three children grow up together and become close asf. All three of the kids become addicts too but eventually troea to go to rehab and break the cycle.
I really love your videos especially your sims your created
omg this comment made my day
i was going for a good life for my sim so she got a husband and they had a baby and then the day after the baby is born the husband dies of laughter 😂
this happened to me too 😂😂
How does your sims look so amazing? So detailed and much better graphics than normal. Which kids do you use?
Hii I don't have a lot of the kits but I have almost all the expansion and game packs!! I think its because I use reshade, I have a few tutorials on my channel :)
what reshade are you using? It looks soo good! @roosims
Thank you for this video !! My current savefile is bugging, so I want to start a new one and this helps me so much 🥹
omg im so glad this vid is helpful
This was super useful!!
Thank you so much for your comment - I'm glad it was useful!!
Good tips!
I'm so glad they are helpful
what reshade do you use? so pretty
i wanna know the same
I use a custom gshade!! I released it early for my discord and will be releasing it publicly soon :)
WHATS THE MOD WHERE THEY'RE SLEEPING TOGETHER LIKE THAT ITS SO CUTE I NEED IT
it’s the bed cuddle mod!
May I know how do you get your sims game to have such warm and cozy lighting? Mine always bursts with brightness and my sims kept glowing 😢 I have downloaded lighting mods and milk thistle, sunbinds… non of it seems to help. Am I doing something wrong? I have gshade on as well
i think is the reshade preset she's using, try to find some preset that looks good for u !!
if none of the shaders work maybe u need to change the settings on ur moniter to suit sims better
All these were amazing, I really struggle to get good lore in my save files so this video helps so much thank youu
Ahh I'm so glad I could help
