hunniboo1hunniboo1 Posts: 1,510 Member
There are types of simmers so which one are you? (Borrowed this list off a Google search) :)

Also if you are more than one (which most will be) select the poll option you relate to the most, and feel free to comment the different ones you are

Differrent types:
  • Builder: replace all items in the world with player's own creations
  • Colonist: replace all sims currently prepopulated in the world with their own creations
  • Completionist/Challenger: completes all game "goals" such as careers & aspirations. Also/or enjoys doing sim challenges.
  • Deviant: performs interactions just to see what may happen and / or creates a bit of chaos in their sim world
  • Laid-back: does not take the game seriously, plays for leisure and enjoys using cheats / cc depending upon the necessary purpose
  • Legacy / Family Player: creates an extensive family tree using only one sim
  • Role-player: takes on a personal role through their sims lives
  • Rotational: rotates from household, to household
  • Storyteller: performs actions in-game to create a story of which is written / depicted later
  • Woohoo hound / partyer: enjoys woohooing, enough said :)

    I’m something of a completionist/challenger, family player and storyteller. Possibly also a bit of a sporadic/part-time Simmer as I do tend to go away from the game for periods of time and then come back to start all over at the beginning again.

    Both rotational and Storyteller

    Completionist/Challenger
    Completionist, definitely! But I'm also a family player and occasionally a deviant player - though I find S2 better for deviant play currently.

    Oh yes, forgot to mention - definitely rotational as well!

    Role-player
    I'd say storyteller/laid-back/roleplayer. Wish there was an Other option lol.

    Oh, that's ok. I picked the one I enjoy the most, which is Roleplayer.

    I do family play. And Rotational. Although I dont like large families. And I like to have lesbian and gay couples, so not traditional families either! <3 Modern families.

    Laid-back
    Wasn't too sure which to pick, but this was the closest one. Usually, I start a new game every time something new comes out. Or sometimes, I decide to use a certain sim and go from there. I usually start with either a male or female and see who they come across. If I'm not happy, I make a sim to meet and put them in another house, but that doesn't happen much. I love Mayor Whiskers and decided to do a cat lady until I figured out that cats count in the household, so she was a limited cat lady. Sometimes, I love to be an adoptee. It is real fun sometimes. I remember once, I played a woman who adopted kids and there just seemed to be some really cute kids in there. The child ones are really pretty. There were around four that I really liked, so I was just adopting as fast as I could. Sometimes, you also come across some neat pets that way too.

    I am a different player in Sims4 than in Sims3. I use to play full households and micro manage them all easily in Sims3. I mostly family played except with University. In Sims4, family play makes me mad. I tried the other day. My sim would stop all cues to do what the toddler wanted which was to get out of that horrible high chair. I hate the Sims4 highchair. I don't like my sims or other sims stopping what they are doing to cater to a toddler when I have all autonomy off. Toddlers should be able to do nothing with autonomy off except if hunger reaches a certain level. I want my sims to follow my cues completely like they did in Sims3.

    Storyteller
    I’m something of a hybrid Storyteller/Roleplayer/Colonist, I guess. Definitely not a Deviant, Rotational, or Completionist/Challenger.

    Same, but I always seem to give up when I try something. I always gave up on challenges cause It's taking too much time and I don't have any imagination or creation skills.

    Colonist
    I'm a laid-back, rotational colonist who rebuilds all of the lots with other Simmers' builds from the gallery. :p

    I usually refer to myself as a "Population Player" because I don't have a rotational system, I just jump between households on a whim and play them whenever I like, while I continue to create and add Sims to the worlds as I get ideas.

    I love creating Sims. <3

    Storyteller
    I'm definitely a storyteller, but also a rotational legacy player with a bit of completionist. I like building too, but I'm too lazy to replace every single EA-build :D

    Role-player
    I'm a mix of most of them, but I picked the one I probably do the most.

    Rotational
    I think you did fine job with the poll options and also explaining them. Although I do many things I feel like I mostly fit in the rotational player category, because I find that's what really makes the game enjoyable for me. I also like building, role-playing and storytelling with a bit of deviance :)

    Legacy / Family Player
    I sometimes start a new save to experiment, or because I'm inspired by a story or building idea, but about 90% of my time is spent on my legacy family. I never played that way in previous Sims games - I rarely got beyond the second generation before I wanted to try something different.

    Sims 4 just allows so many more options for continuing the next generation. I can have my kid meet another kid at school and gradually build a relationship, move the friend into the house when they grow up and have them marry, or I can create a new Sim in CAS for that purpose. Or, I can create a new Sim in CAS and mix their genetics to create a toddler. And I love, love, love the option for two women to have a baby together.
    I just want things to match. :'(

    Legacy / Family Player
    I always start families and go for several generations with them. But recently I started to build more as well. Even though I do some of the other stuff I always find myself going back to family play.

    Colonist
    Thinking that this should rather be a "click all of which apply to you" 1 to 10 type survey. I like building and making families mainly but can do a bit of all the above. :)

    Just edited to choose "Colonist" if I can add that I put them in my own houses as well as a close second!

    I would mostly consider myself a builder, but I have one family that I still play with that I started when I bought the game in 2016. 😁

    Completionist/Challenger
    I started as a Completionist but after a while (and many saves) I got bored so trying out Legacies and being a Storyteller, so far I'm enjoying the game more

    Rotational
    I’m mostly a rotational/storyteller player. My stories are most often dictated by things that just happen in game, or feelings I get based on sim behavior I observe. Sometimes I make plans, but most often they don’t bear fruit because my sims have their own ideas in mind. I just enjoy getting invested in each character’s life and seeing them go through stuff but ending up happy; makes me feel they’ve earned it.
