I think Pleasantview is supposed to be a drama bucket. The only pre-mades I ever really played were in Veronaville. I was surprised to hear how many people said it was their least favorite hood. I guess I thought having a gender-reversed Pleasantview and not ever using it seemed wasteful, and considering I'm on Gen. Nine, having one extra household at Uni is no big deal.
Remember the Sim Secret from a few weeks back that was "I hate it when writers use the Maxis pre-mades: you should make up your own characters?" I'm starting to like them. I'm beginning to think of them as a shared vocabulary. It's like using Legacy Sims in a way, only *everyone* has access to them.
Still, playing a neighborhood where a lot of Sims are pre-wired to hate other Sims can get old.
