So I am really enjoying playing sims 3 at the moment. It is great fun. I think it is kinda a more of a...casual game than the sims 2, I don't focus on the little details like making up story lines and personalties for each of the sims, and I just let them make things up on their own. It's really amusing, and a nice change from my playing style in sims 2.
I am also trying to build a half-decent in house in sims 3 and sims 2, which I suck at so much. I never been much of a builder or decorator, I usually just download houses, because it takes me way too long. But I am trying to change that and practise building. I am finding it fun, but frustrating at the time it takes. Seriously I really admire all the amazing builders out there. Hopefully I can improve though.
But I want to play some more sims 2. I love it so much, and want to do loads more things with it! I was thinking of starting a fresh neighbourhood....and maybe doing some kind of challenge? I have never really done a challenge, I just usually just play. No goals or anything, I just enjoy making up random storylines for each sim and family. But I have seen quite a few challenges over livejournal, and they look like fun so I want to give one a try.
It looks like the most common one is legacies? I have read some really funny legacies, but I think I want to play something a bit more open-ended with more familes and sims involved. So one thing that did catch my eye was the Build a City Challenge, it looks a lot of fun and I love what
Penny has done with the challenge.
But other than that I don't really know what kind of challenges there are out there, being new to the livejournal community. So I was wondering what people recommend? Just any ideas would be welcome!
