I'm doing a legacy challenge and I'm on gen 3. I am so bored with the house I'm in now. It's not technically in the rules but I' think I'm going to move.
Absolutely. I love it when my sims move into new houses. It feels like you're playing a new game. I've never liked that rule in the legacy challenge. Just move if you want to!
I don't know if it's boredom but have you ever built a house for your Sims and you play it for a bit and it just doesn't feel right? That's usually my problem I built a house and if it doesn't fit them I end up bulldozing it and starting over again. Sometimes the next house is the keeper
My sims moving houses regulary, like I do. I like to build different housestyles. Mostly I want to keep the old house, so moving to an other lot is mandatory.
Redecorate it or bulldoze it, they don't know! That's part of the fun, but yeah if you're sick of the lot and the scenery move, just because it's a challenge doesn't mean it has to be followed to the niggly little letter. It's your game, you decide how you play the challenge or not. Rules are made to be broken.
I usually can play 2 generations in the same house, before I'm ready for a move. I build mine, so I don't bulldoze them. I have the families move to a new lot. I play rotationally, so that helps. Once I feel a house is "finished" that's usually move time.
That house will belong to that sims for the rest of eternity lol jk. I move them all time. But I will try to keep my main playable family in one house until the kids are moved out. I downloaded it/made it for a reason right!
I'm actually playing in most of my houses since 4+ generations of Sims / since 5 years. Unless I really feel like building, I leave everything as it is.

Or the flip side: build a house, love it, family moves out/ dies and you just can't seem to move another family in so you save it to the library and bulldoze it. Just me? Lol
Yes! After a few generations. I usually get a new house. I’m not a builder so I have my sims save up for something on the gallery. Sometimes, I’ll move them to a new world altogether. My 100 baby challenge started in willow creek but now they are in new crest. But I must admit, I chose NC to avoid the welcome wagon and having neighbors in general lol.
Not very often. I play Rags to Riches style so their houses evolve as they get more simoleans. I'm usually constantly changing/updating something. Plus, I'm also playing the Drifter challenge and with that, each generation starts out on a new lot with 0 simoleans. So, I get to build a new house for every generation. Sometimes I'm not even done remodeling their houses the way I want and the generation is over. I plan to go back and finish those houses after the challenge is complete.
I’m playing rotation game and build homes for my sims. I have no time to get bored, because of the rotation and homes are my own buildings. I usually have everything I need for my playing style.
But my building skill is getting better, I rebuild older homes.
I rebuild the home sometimes bulldozing the entire lot and terrain. Other times with editions to the home. Other times by changing the layout. I am a fan of open concept on the first floor feeling it gives a nice flow to my builds. Other times I might just change the decor. I love to build in the sims and will find any excuse to build... build... build.
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]
A change of pace is needed to keep things interesting. I play rotationally but my sims move around a fair amount. Other than mansions and apartments, I don’t get upset with bulldozing lots to move a new family in or repurposing a lot. In one generation, a retail lot might be a pawn shop, now it’s a bookstore. Seems more realistic to me. I also like things going abandoned or being under construction for a while.
My sims house has got to be just right - if I don't like the house then I find I can't enjoy playing those sims.
I get plenty of variety in houses and sims though, since I play on rotation, so don't really get bored of the houses. Plus, I don't usually enforce staying in one home if I feel a family should move.
What is hard for me is that I usually begin in tiny starter homes and if I try to expand them when kids come along it most often doesn't feel right so I end up downloading or building from scratch.
