Legacy Questionnaire

Thought this would be fun to do so I can look back on it after a few more generations pass and see how some answers change. This can also be done as a ‘send me a number’ game so if you want to do that you can find the original post by @melien​, here. Inspired by @an0nymousghost​, you can check out their post here!

1. When did you start your legacy? What inspired you to do it?

I started this Legacy on March 28, 2019. I usually do challenges where there are a lot of rules for each generation but I wanted to start something where I could do pretty much what I wanted and play a little bit more out of my comfort zone. And I’d seen a lot of amazing Legacies on Simblr that made me want to do my own and post it.

2. Are you following any strict rules there or just play how you want?

Nah, I’m basically just doing what I want.

3. Post the oldest picture you have from your legacy save.

The first ever Sharp house. Originally created by lilsimsie but I gave it a renovation. It’s up for download if anyone wants it!

4. What’s so special about your founder that you wanted to start a legacy with them?

She wasn’t really special to be honest. I just finally made a Sim that I managed to enjoy playing enough to not give up and start a new family like I’ve done a few times before with Legacy Challenges.

5. Favourite generation(s)

Generation 1 was probably my favourite. Which makes it sounds like I’ve enjoyed the family less and less as the challenge has gone on but that not the case at all. I think it’s because even though it was only a little over a year ago, I have a bit of nostalgia for that generation? Idk, I’m weird.

6. Favourite heir.

Probably Harper, the Gen 3 heir. 

7. Favourite spare.

Either Abi from Gen 1 or Jordan from Gen 3. 

8. Favourite spouse.

Alessia, the Gen 4 spouse. I’m gonna be really sad when I have to move on to Gen 5 and stop playing her.

9. Top 5 favourite legacy sims.

1. Jordan 2. Alessia 3. Sonny 4. Abi 5. Hayley

10. Top 3 favourite couples.

1. Safiya and Milo - the OG couple of this challenge. I have to stan. 2. Jordan and Jackson - kinda look like brothers but I just love them so much. 3. Eli and Alessia -  currently playing them and they’re so cute.

11. If you ever did any story lines, what is the one you’re most proud of?

I’m not a huuuge fan of making big story lines for my Sims but sometimes I have little things in my head about the Sims’ personality or their motivations for doing certain things that someone looking through my legacy won’t know because I don’t necessarily put them into my posts to make a huge story.

12. Any memorable moments?

Mango, a cat from Gen 2, randomly going into labour. I literally don’t know how she got pregnant.

13. Any funny moments?

None that I can think of. That’s upsetting.

14. The most unexpected twist in your legacy?

Some of the kids were unexpected twists - Harper and Hazel weren’t supposed to exist and neither was Eli but I have a problem with making my Sims have too many kids. 

15. Favourite name used on your sims?

I remember being very excited about naming Gus. And I love the name Sonny, especially for a boy. For surnames, I was really proud of Nair and Lane, even though they’re pretty basic lmao.

16. Who of your legacy sims you can relate the most to?

I don’t really relate to any but if I had to choose it would either be Abi or Harper.

17. Do you usually get attached to them or just play without deep thinking?

I get kind of attached in that I love looking back at old screenshots and remember how fun it was to play them but I don’t cry when my Sims die or anything like that because I usually have other Sims that I can move onto and focus on. And like... if I really wanted to see a Sim again, I probably have them saved somewhere.

18. Any surprise babies? What was the story?

Not really a surprise because I made it happen, but Harper and Hazel were not part of my original plan for Generation 2. I planned on Faye only having 2 kids but I was bored and when that happens I usually cure the boredom by having more kids, which I’m trying very hard to stop doing because after the excitement of having the baby is over, I can be even less interested in playing than I was initially.

19. Who of your sims has the best style?

I feel like none of my Sims have the best style, they’re all pretty generic, but if I had to choose... Jordan or Harper.

20. Who is the best genetic mix of their parents?

This is definitely a flaw of The Sims 4 and its shitty skin tones but I quite like that Max and Jordan (who are twins) have a slight mix of their parent’s genetics. Max has Harper’s hair and Cheyanne’s skin tone. And Jordan has Cheyanne’s hair and Harper’s skin tone.

Again, this shouldn’t be a thing. The kids should have a skin tone that’s in the middle of what their parents’ skin tone is but I just thought it was interesting when I noticed it.

21. Is your legacy berry, vanilla, banilla, or a mix of those?

Vanilla in the sense that they aren’t berry sims but not vanilla in the sense that I use a lot of CC and some mods.

22. Have you ever done another legacies apart from this one?

I’ve started a few, two of which I began posting on here but then deleted because I didn’t like how they were going. I was 100% expecting to give up with the Sharp family as well but it’s going pretty good so far.

23. How many generations are you aiming for? When you reach a certain milestone, are you going to continue playing or just wrap up the whole thing?

If I lose interest at any point and genuinely get bored of the Sharp family then I’ll probably stop at the end of whichever generation I’m on but ideally I want to complete 10 generations. I might take a Sim born in the final generation and use them in another legacy/challenge I start as a spouse or something but I’ll stop with the Sharp Legacy after 10.

24. Have you ever done any other challenges with your sims from the legacy?

At some point I probably will use someone from the Sharp family in something else but so far I haven’t. I will be using a Sim from another challenge/family in Sharp Gen 5 though.

25. What do you do when you feel uninspired playing the legacy?

Either stop playing The Sims 4 altogether or play another challenge/family for a bit.

26. Have you had your sims die? Which death was the hardest to take?

I’m on Gen 4 so a lot of Sims have died at this point, all from old age. So far, Harper’s was probably the hardest to take.

27. Do you have this one OTP that stands out among the other legacy couples? Tell us about them!

Jordan and Jackson. I don’t know what it is about them, I just love them so much. Sometimes I wish I made Jackson the heir. I knew that for Gen 4 I wanted to live in Sulani and do Island Living stuff but I didn’t mold Jordan into an Island Living type of Sim so it wouldn’t have fit very well.

28. Have you had a sim who you grew to like?

Eli was very unplanned and I had no idea what to name him and I was like ugh why did I do this but now I love him a lot. Originally, I named him Casper.

Bailey was also very hard to name. I’ve always really loved her, it’s just the name that I’m not sure about. I like the name Bailey but something about Bailey Sharp isn’t my fave. And Sonny and Bailey don’t go together that well imo. But at the same time, now I couldn’t imagine her having a different name so... idk.

29. Have you had a sim that you fell in love with right away?

I’m always obsessed with the first born in a generation so - Abi, Hanna, Max & Jordan, Sonny

30. Do you choose your heirs yourself or make heir polls?

I have thought about making an heir poll when I’m not sure what I want to do for the next Generation but so far, I’ve managed to figure it out so I haven’t needed a poll.

Also, when it comes to choosing an heir, I usually like to choose when they are still a child so I can kind of mold them into what I want for the next Generation as they’re growing up. So making a poll would be hard because the people voting wouldn’t know my plan and I wouldn’t want to give major spoilers for what’s to come.

31. The first legacy memory that pops up in your head?

Safiya going to a cafe to make friends but she ended up just sitting alone drinking coffee. Or when Cheyanne and Harper went on a date and Harper died...

32. The hottest sim?

Gus, Max or Brandie

33. The prettiest sim?

I feel like I’ve been very lucky with this family because all the kids have been really pretty but if I had to choose, probably either Abi, Hayley or Jordan.

34. The most unique sim?

I feel like all my Sims are pretty basic to be honest. If I had to choose... maybe Jordan? I’m not sure. 

35. Have you had any sims that remind you of someone?

I’ve never really thought about it, so I guess not.

36. Do you use other people’s sims in your legacy?

I think most of the Sims I’ve used for this Legacy are either pre-made Sims in the saves I’ve been using or I’ve made them. I don’t think I’ve specifically downloaded anyone from somewhere for my Sim to marry. I probably will do that at some point though.

37. Imagine if you had a chance to meet one of your sims. Who would it be?

That’s so weird for me to imagine but if I had to, either Jordan or Harper.

38. Do you have that one generation you wish you’d done differently?

I love Brandie and Eli so much but I sometimes wish Harper and Cheyanne had Max and Jordan and then were done with babies because 2 generations in a row with 4 babies is a bit much.

39. Your favourite non-romantic relationship in the legacy?

Harper and Hazel were fun to play with at the beginning of Gen 3 when they went to university.

40. Random fun fact about your legacy you want to share!

I’m trying to make each generation a bit different and focus on a pack. Gen 1 and Gen 2 were both fairly generic but Gen 3 had a university theme for a while and Gen 4 is Island Living. Gen 5 will probably be a mix of Island Living and Eco Lifestyle (if I can be bothered to figure out how to properly work Eco-Lifestyle).

Oh my love, don’t you worry.

What song can you relate to the most? None? All of them? I can’t say theres like one at the moment that I’m really FEELING, but it does happen. Sometimes, you hear the right song at the right time, and it’s like, your LIFE. What’s the worst thing you’ve ever experienced? Hmmm. I don’t know? I’ve never experienced anything outside of the normal human condition- heartbreak, actual bones breaks, you know. That stuff sucks. What’s the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen? There’s no one thing. Nature, perfect times in the city, the wind blowing in the trees- just new beautiful moments that keep on coming. Do you have a secret crush? Nope. Have you ever had a secret admirer? Someone left a note in my desk in 4th grade that said “You’re Awesome” in like drippy block letters and I never found out who it was. Some say they still think I’m awesome to this day. Do you write “Dear Diary” when you write in your diary? No Diary. What is your escape from your problems? Um, waiting too long to make a decision on something that it decides itself? Sooo lazy. What do you want to name your children? I really like the name Samara. Like the murderous child from The Ring that crawls out of the well. My husband doesn’t know thats where that name comes from. Don’t tell him. Do you watch youtube videos a lot? No. I purposely don’t watch any youtube videos. I just don’t like watching videos, just write an article and let me read it for heaven’s sakes. This is really where I feel a generational divide most in my life- youtube didn’t exist until after I graduated high school, and I just never adopted it into my life. Do you feel all alone in the world? Nah. What year do you want to re-live again? None. That sounds tedious AF. What is the stupidest thing you’ve ever done? Oh man. I blurt out  the stupidest shit when I’m anxious. All 34,968 things I’ve said inapropriately count as one collective stupidest thing, lol. Do you have an embarrassing period story? No, thankfully. Would you ever post all your secrets on the internet? Nope. I don’t really post much of anything on the internet, save for this right now.  Do you have any secrets? None that would be of any interest to anyone, most likely. No soap opera level reveals here, sorry. Would your life be at risk if someone knew everything about you? Ha ha, no.  Is your life at risk? Not that I am aware of? Do you feel safe in your hometown? Sure. I live like 2 blocks from the police station. I’ve always felt comfortable walking here alone at night. Even after the mass shooting downtown this summer, I think I’d still feel relatively comfortable even there, if not just cognizant of what had occurred. Where do you dream of moving to? Everywhere, all the time. Seattle, New York, somewhere in the Caribbean, a beach house somewhere on the east coast... I’m honestly not sure we will leave our hometown area at this point, though. What fascinates you more: outer space or the bottom of the ocean? The ocean is scarier. Do you ever hear from God? Ha ha, no. Does God speak to you often? Must’ve lost my number. What day of the week were you born on? * I think I was born on a Tuesday, near midnight

^Same. A Tuesday at 11:47 pm.

Do you have a piggy bank? There is one in my house. I don’t ever use cash, though, so theres probably nothing in it. Who do you hate?  No one. Did you choose your sexuality? I didn’t chose the thug life, it chose me. …Do you feel you could have chosen a different one? I really don’t think thats a thing. What does your middle name rhyme with? Nothing? Barry? What middle name would you pair with Eliana? Nothing, I don’t like that name lol Would you ever name a child after yourself? Definitely not. It’s like how I feel about cars- you only get so many in your life, why would you buy the same one twice? Do you want to be famous? Probably not? I think everyone has some type of fantasy about being famous, but I have no idea what one such as myself would ever be famous for?  Are you an alien? Sure Have you ever had an alien from outer space land in your backyard? Nope. Have you ever seen a UFO? No. My friend and I saw the same thing once and she thought it was a UFO and I thought it was some type of meteor. I’m just not a believer. What’s your favorite type of moon? Um, the Earth’s? Do you make wishes on the moon? No, but sometimes I tell him he’s pretty. …or the stars? dandelions? What do you make wishes on? I used to wish on the stars. Not like shooting ones, even, just regular ones. Didn’t seem to work, they’ve probably got some important star stuff to do. Are you superstitious at all? No. Again, I really don’t believe in things, lol. Has anyone ever beaten the life out of you? Figuratively, yes. Literally, no. Does anyone encourage you to go after your dreams? My husband kind of does? What is the stupidest thing anyone’s ever said to you? Ha ha, no idea.  Do you get offended a lot? …why? No. I don’t really ever get offended. What color are your cargo pants? I have no cargo pants. Cargo pantsless. What’s the most amount of weight you’ve gained from a medication? I’m proud to say that all the weight I’ve gained has been from delicious food.  Do you name inanimate objects? I do, occasionally. What do you throw across the room when you’re mad? No. Sometimes I want to, but then if I did, I’d have to go pick it up and I am very lazy. How many subscribers do you have on your youtube channel? Zed. Do you believe in fairies? Nope. …in unicorns? Nyet. …in dragons? Again, I believe in very little.

What do you think the constellations mean? Nothing? Just humanity reaching to ascribe some type of meaningfulness to the world around them. Have you ever had a near-death experience? Once. I got hit by a wave that broke behind the breakers and it slammed me into the ocean floor when I was 7. I was a good swimmer, but I was so disoriented, I was just swimming straight into the sand over and over again. Luckily, my dad saw me and was able to pull me out. Do you eat a lot of crackers? I can eat no crackers. Did you like the venue your senior prom was held at? It was in a gym, so typical, but not exciting in any way. Which spelling do you like best: Hayley, Hailey, or Haley? Hailey, I guess? Which name is better: Hailey, Bailey, Kailey, or Shailey? The last two are just made up. Are you mad at someone? Nope. Do you feel like your life was stolen from you? I think it’s still in my possession? Do you have a professional camera? My camera is technically a “prosumer” camera, but jokes on you, I shoot weddings on it and people pay me anyway. What would you change about your hair? I kinda want to change the color, but the current color is so dark and the pastel I’d like would be really challenging. When was the last time you changed your hairstyle? Maybe 3 months ago I just gave up the fight and dyed my hair teal like I wanted to, adulthood be damned. Now I don’t have a job, so maybe not the best decision? Do you like rose gold? Yes, I prefer it, I think. Do you pull all-nighters? Nah, I think I’ve outgrown the desire or ability for that.
