I just started the In Bloom legacy challenge while on a break from my regular legacy save. I like that it's making me do things I've never done before like grow a cowplant, but my god is gardening a whole lot of bullshit. Growing 5 perfect plants is going to take forever.

Which gen are you on in your legacy challenge? I've always wanted to complete it but the farthest I've ever got was gen 3. I guess my attention span is too short, sadly

Gen 7 is a toddler! It's not really a challenge though, I just like playing one family forever. I play on long lifespan usually. I think I started this save when Eco Lifestyle came out, so it's been a while. I take loooong breaks and resume when new expansions come out.

The problem for me is that I can't really resume playing on the same save after taking a break. I don't know why.
It's kind of a shame. I love the idea of playing with one family for a long time, making their house bigger and bigger, having some memorabilia from earlier generations around the house. But I lack the resolve to actually get there

They've reinvented Oblivion conversations. Honestly kind of brilliant.

Weren't those just reheated Half-Life "conversations"?

I move houses a lot but it's always a treat to visit a home and be like "hey, I built this four years ago!"

You don't have to do everything on there but it's a pretty good walkthrough for the essential bugfix mods. The fixes definitely make the game a whole lot more playable, but just know it's always gonna be Janky.

At the very least, you probably want to make sure it's not running at infinite FPS.

Every time I decide to want to play Sims 3 again I think of all the effort it requires to play Sims 3 again and just go back to playing 4 while complaining about it.

Here's what you need to do: limit FPS in your GPU driver, install Smooth Patch, play game. That's it. The Steam guide is basically useless and a lot of the information it has is either straight-up wrong or just useless advice that wastes time without producing significant improvement in anything.
