It’s finally time for Pinstar and me to update our Sims 4 Legacy Challenge rules and to do that, I need to do some playtesting! I thought it would be fun to make this into a Youtube series so that you all can post suggestions and questions as we go!

Legacy Challenge Succession Laws Ranked by Difficulty – A New Guide!
We have a new guide up for you all today. For those of you that are unsure which Legacy Challenge Succession Laws to choose for your Legacy, this guide ranks them in order of difficulty and complexity. Hopefully this helps make your choices easier!
Planning Legacy Guides for Sims 4 Free to Play

Hello everyone! With the announcement of The Sims 4 going free to play on October 18, I wanted to start working on some Legacy Challenge related guides to post on the website. I have a list of guides that I want to post, but I would love your input on whether I should add others!
Here is what I have so far:
- How to start a Legacy Challenge in the Sims 4
- How to make money early on in the Legacy Challenge
- Finding a spouse
- Succession laws ranked by difficulty and which to choose
- Building Legacy Houses
- All packs ranked for how they work with the Legacy Challenge
Let me know what you think in the comments below!
Teen Aspirations & The Trait Generators
I have made a change to how the Random Trait Generators and the Legacy Challenge Rules work for the Sims 4. Since Teens can now roll for Aspirations that also include teen-specific aspirations along with the original aspirations from previous packs, it made sense to change the wording on when to roll for aspirations.
When a child becomes a teenager, roll for the teenager aspiration (ignore what the adult aspiration says for the moment) and go with whatever is assigned. If your teenager is able to complete their aspiration before adulthood, then you can either choose to go with a randomly generated adult aspiration from the generator next (to add some more randomness to your challenge) or do what has been done in the past and choose the next one. It’s up to you!
The rules have also been reworded to reflect this.

The Fantasy Legacy 65 – Moving Things Around
First off – I apologize for the quality of this video. I updated OBS (the software I use to record) and somehow all of my settings got messed up and I didn’t notice until after I finished recording.
I was tired of Morrigan being all the way on the back of the lot when she recorded her videos so I did another minor house update!
