    Spring
    Spring. I don't like having my Sims experience extreme weather.

    I tend to pick whichever season it is in real life at the time. So recently I've always chosen spring, but soon I'll pick summer :)

    I usually start a game in whatever season I’m in irl.

    Spring
    Even though Fall is my fave season, I start with Spring, mostly because it symbolizes kinda start of year in my mind

    Autumn/Fall
    Fall because I hate Summer and love cooler weather.

    Spring since flowers and trees are in bloom!

    The scenario and objectives I come up with determine the season I start in. I might start in Spring for one game I start then next Winter
    Playtesting - not just tabletop games and card games any more. Really that should have been playtested in Beta and not [img]just with accounting and marketing but actual players. https://i.imgur.com/t48COW6.jpg[/img]

    My game, like the game calendar, begins on the first of spring.

    It is always fall in a new save for me.

    The new school year starts in the fall, a time for new experiences. I really enjoy that time of year, the shifting colors in the leaves. Also, it means summer is as far away as possible. I am still not completely over the endless summer in the game prior to Seasons coming out. When I start with fall I am actually glad to see it again.

    The game feels so much more real to me now. Just wish I could mod the game for more hours with sun during the summer and less hours with sun during winter. We live a bit up north.

    Spring: Green leaves coming up and you start to see flowers
    Summer: The sun hardly sets and your child refuses to go to bed at 20:00 because the sun is still up and it looks like daytime
    Fall: The world is painted in orange and red, beautiful
    Winter: Snow and ice, pretty. You want the snow because when the sun goes down at 13-14 the white ground makes it feel much lighter

    I would like that too, but I think it would need to vary from world to world; as I understand it, the worlds are based on real-world locations - I think a smart thing for the devs to do would be to find out what the annual sunrise and sunset times are in those real places and them implement that in-game.

    edit: sorry, for some reason it won't let me put my writing outside the quote box o_0

    Always Spring, because to me spring in real life is the fresh start season. Everything seems new, and it makes sense in a new game.

    Because spring stands for new beginnings , also it's the beginning of the year and new games always defaults to spring.
    Laugh out loud. Often

    Hmm... I think I would prefer to mod it myself and choosing which world is placed where. Which worlds are more north or not. If it had been in the game when Seasons came then sure.

    Sometimes mods are just really nifty, letting us fine tune stuff without messing with others games. I would really like to see Granite Falls go really dark during winter but perhaps everyone don’t want a dark winter world.

    Just really happy that Forgotten Hollow is less sunny than the rest of the world 🙂

    Usually Fall because I love how pretty the worlds look.

    I picked other because its not always different, but depends on what I feel the mood would be, I guess, but also, a lot start in summer, as I like for them to discover the seasons for the first time~

    I don't have Seasons
    I honestly prefer the eternal not-too-hot, not-too-cold of playing sans Seasons. Since my Sim lives in Oasis Springs, I imagine it's about April, before the Simizona desert gets real hot.

    If I do play with Seasons, I start with Autumn, the season in which I was born.

    I think that most of the time I start it in Fall because I like the look of it, but I never really thought about it.

    I grow bored of doing the same thing over and over. I have no reason to begin with a specific season.

    Spring
    i can see this thread has 5 month inactivity. all the same though i always start in spring. you can't grow snapdragons in winter or summer and Autumn is a bit late in the year for most things that happen at the start of every new year to middle of that year.

    Spring
    Like the majority, I usually start my game in the Spring. I guess it's just easiest since it marks the beginning of a new year, and it's the first option on the list. Pretty convenient!

    Spring
    One thing about Seasons bothers me, though: How you can't have all of your plants at the same time!! I mean, I get that it's the realism factor, and I can appreciate that, but it makes crossbreeding plants SO HARD!! On one file I used to play, I was trying to go for all the plants available with the packs I have, and I could never get there because it was so difficult to crossbreed! When you only get a few shots per year, and the success rate of crossbreeds is so low, it's really hard to get the plants you need!! (Semi-offtopic, I know, my apologies.)
