That's a pretty cool idea!

Nice

I wanna make a video legacy with TS3, only it will have dialog, and events, like a chapter book.  It would be really fun.

[Majick]

Ooo!

And since this is the Legacy & Family Stories Section, your TS3 families will be able to go here too. So I don't think this section will be getting a rest any time soon

[yummybunny]

Nope, this section isn't gonna get a rest.

As soon as I figure out the gameplay and stuff, and get some experience with it, so I won't make beginner's mistakes on a family I care about, I am gonna start a legacy, and carry it with me, hopefully for a very long time...hopefully when TS4 comes out, or this website starts going downhill, which wouldn't be any time soon.

I may still do pictures, but I am thinking about a video legacy.  It would be a legacy with dialogue...imagine a series, but it isn't a series...but it is really a show about watching a family and their descendants develop and grow over time.

I wanna start off with a single male sim...I don't wanna rush into marriage right away, since there would be a lot more things to do.  In TS2, people rushed into marriage, because that was when the true gameplay begun.  He will have his friends, have his girlfriends, have his heartbreaks, find the right chick, and just life after that...things suck, things sometimes don't suck.

Then he'll have his kids...then I will follow the lives of the kids when they grow up...but mainly focus on a chosen heir...because the game might make the other kid have fifty kids, and I can't keep up with all the family.  I think with some creativity, it would be really nice.

That's true, there is so much more gamplay outside of romance now!

I want to have my sims to go to the beach, fish, date, swim, have fun!
I am going to make their lives very very long

[yummybunny]

I want to plan out the length of my life stages, but I wanna play the game first.

They said the average day in TS3 would be longer than the Sims 2 day.

So once I get a feel of how long a day is, then I will fix the length of my life stages. 

A second factor is that I have to see how many more interactions do babies and toddlers have?  If they are funner and have more interactions, especially the baby stage, then I will increase the days for them.

Let's say the average TS3 day was equal to TS2 day, here may be my life stage settings:

baby-1 day (It drives me crazy not to see their needs, and they are always naked and boring)
toddler-4 days (Toddlers drive me crazy too.  All they do is play and want to learn stuff.  If you don't, they get depressed.  I wish we can do more with them...they drive me crazy too, but they are cute)

...I may keep everything the same...that's why we need more interactions and stuff to do with each age stage, so I can increase the length.  I would love the baby stage to be 3-4 days, and the toddler stage 5-7 days...and so on.

Before i start my sims3 legacy, I will make a test sim. I will see how long days are, how long activities take, and so on.
Then i will make a small legacy
(I probably wont do a big legacy  i dont know how i feel about them yet)

[yummybunny]

I am dying to start my legacy...I wish I can fast forward to February...but it will be here soon, before we know it.  December is ending in two weeks!!! 

Then comes the long month of January, but January will be an exciting month!!!

I can't wait to see the faces of my sims!!!  I feel as excited as when my gecko had her babies, and my dog had her puppies...and I can't wait.

[b-rad]

I am so excited to
You made me like ecstatic!!

Its going to be so cool!!!

[yummybunny]

I am gonna cry when I get it.

I may be the first one at the store, like I was when Pokemon Diamond and Pearl came out.

I know!!!  It is super exciting!!!

I can't wait to see their simmy faces!!!
