My founder was a single dad named Lyle Hurd and his daughter, Danna Hurd. These two.
They're long dead, but I'm in the process of writing out their story so I have a lot of them together again.
I'm up to generation 6 I think. I keep turning aging off when I rotate (lots of families!) and it's so hard trying to keep the line going when I'm trying not to be a homewrecker LOL. Everyone's married in my game these days. -sigh- where that fresh meat at
I'm still playing the same save that I started with when the game came out, I have one main household,
But I do play rotationally with quite a few others. I have aging off and I rarely ever *permanently* have
a Sim die..So I've probably got *at least* 350 Sims in my game.
Literally the 1st TS4 screenshot that I took in 2014. (notice the stuck fork )
I'm playing the same household I started with two years ago.
I don't play with aging on and don't pay any attention to ages, simply aging families members up when I feel like it. I have two households because Olivia and Frederick never married, at least not yet, and he and older son, Mackensie live together. Whenever the household gets too much to handle I'll move one or two of the younger boys in with their dad. Olivia just had another baby because I wanted to play the nanny. I'll probably age up Juliette soon because its been a while since I played a teen.
Guilty! In fact two of my three save games were created around the time the game launched. One with aging off, and one with aging on long - aging off save has lots of sims that are almost 2, and some of them are relatives of sims who have passed in the time since. Save with aging on is kinda neglected; I prefer to have my sims not age until I feel they have accomplished what I want them to at their current age. Which would be why my aging off save hasn't moved more than 2 generations from when I created it.
I have a whole collection of YAs in one save. Aging is off.
After I had my initial sims had children in the first month of the game, I started over and gave up on families,so all my sims are waiting for Generations before I turn on aging.
I still have my very first save, but sadly the spark won't ignite anymore. In the beginning I loved that (rotational) save and eagerly added families and venues to it. Then I played a legacy, several challenges, started and abandoned other rotational saves and finally created Windenburg Bay Chronicle, my current "main save" (also rotational). Ever so often I'd go back to my original save to try out new features or advance the story. But early this year that story came to it's conclusion and ever since the savegame feels "finished". Keeping it alive now feels artificial, like trying too much.
Well, I'll get a new computer next month and I think that's a good point to say goodbye to my first save. No one's getting deleted, though, they are all save and sound in the gallery and on various usb drives.
I made a family when I got the game in October and still love it so much...I don't play them anymore, but I still have them in my saves. I'm always happy to see them around town.
I have on and off. Right now I'm playing Pinstar's Legacy Challenge, so I'm making myself play it exclusively, just so I can finish it. Then, I shall go right back to my favorite family, which is also my ancestors. Various saves are two years old, but they all lie dormant at the moment.
Yeah, I've been playing this one family since Day 1 of TS4, lol. All four of their kids have moved out and started their own families, so I find I'm always playing with them and neglecting every other household
Me, sort of. I did a complete wipe and restart of my story when GT came out, and then recently I restarted again from an earlier point in time. The first wipe was because some of the accrued fixes in patches were only for new games and I also wanted to play without some of the reward traits. The second reboot was because I decided it'd be fun to play from an earlier point but the core challenge and the general personality for the sims in the family has been the same from the beginning.
Rather than playing with aging on, I play with it off until an arc of the story I'm telling is done, and then everyone ages up (and I do any world changes, NPC adjustments I need), and then the next arc of the story starts. I also play other families in a rotation but one family gets the lion's share of the attention and mostly that's when I get the hankering to play Get to Work features, manage a restaurant, or play with my elderly sims (who are engaged in a soap opera like tale with a high-society setting).
I'm playing the same save since launch, so my first household is still there (the three eldest children have left the home now). I'll keep the same save until the end of TS4 (and beyond if TS5 doesn't interest me). I've always played Sims game like this.
Unfortunately because of glitches I have lost some really loved sim families.
I have restarted, again, and now have 3 couples with the second generation in house, yay. Then my sister has to show me the family she has played from day 1 and their family tree...wow. Sixteen generations and counting...wtg!
In my house, dog hair sticks to everything but the dog.
I've been playing my Scott Legacy since the beginning. I don't have any pictures atm but I'm currently on generation 12, about to be 13 and I'm pretty proud of how far they have come!

I've been playing my household since the start too. It was two brothers, one has moved out and has his own family but I stick with the other brother because I've just grown very attached to him. They're both elders now (I didn't let them age up until this year actually) and they both have kids, grandkids, great grandkids.. it's amazing. I don't think I'll be letting them go anytime soon either
I get bored very quickly. But I have my favourites sims saved to my library. and I save them there as they progress. and delete the old ones. then when I need to restart I download them into my game as I want them. My longest family has to be the Conway family single mum with three alien children, well teens now. But I have downloaded them three times. I still haven't got any of my sims to grand parents yet, But I will.
I've been playing members of the same sim family since sims 2 (and their ancestors in sims medieval) just remaking some of them then mostly focusing on them!

I made him when we first received the CAS demo and "transferred" him from TS3.
He has had so many lineages....
