Sometimes we need to take a break from our favorite activities, try something new or play something else. But for me, even whenI take a break from any of The Sims games, I always get pulled back in again. Sometimes it’s new content or I hear of a good challenge to try or I just feel like playing it.
What draws you back to the Sims? What seems to pull you in?

My Simblr
I am currently playing through the Mass Effect series.
I will drop it if a Witches game pack is announced. The timing would be perfect for what is going on in my TS4 game.
I have no memory of this place. Time to start anew I guess

I can get pulled in by new content that can jump start that creativity if I'm not feeling it... but often I don't jump right into new content anyway even if it's there. I use it when it fits the story and sometimes have to work up to using it.. but if it jump starts me that's pretty good also.
I just need the inspiration to start a story or sometimes keep one going that sometimes comes also from outside sources like movies, tv and even something as simple as driving around and seeing a "sim house". Then I just start thinking about it and a story can form. Who would live there? What are they up too.. ect.
Sometimes I go in to "test" something out and get drawn in by just playing without over-thinking it too.
But what draws me in, is I just love this series. I didn't have too much time to play it when I first got started, those two boys of mine kept me really busy. The fun will be starting up again because my daughter-in-law will be having my first grandson this October, and she's living with us, along with my her hubby (my son) until they can gather enough income to move into their own apartment. But I'm in no hurry for them to move out.
You were playing the Sims before it was released! That's great.
My story is similar, and I've never told anyone this. When I was little I filled a notebook with people who lived in a madeup town. I had all the professions I could think of at age 10. I made families and assigned the parents jobs and assigned the children classes. I still remember the names and occupations of these people 40 years later, lol. I've considered populating a sim town with some of them. I should really do it. The mayor's name was Myron Mistletoe, lol. I am so going to make him mayor in a sim game.
But yeah -- when the Sims first came out it caught my imagination. I've loved it since Day 1. There are always possibilities to explore with it.
Currently replaying Final Fantasy X series and some Sims 3.
The Sims has been my favourite game since TS1, it's a constant source of guilty pleasure happiness!
Anyone agree with me?
