My style of playing would definitely involve trying to explore as much crafting option as one can have. I'd have my sims craft, find jobs and try to find the most optimal route to $$$ and skills. Also, I also like to use CC because it helps with making sims with appearances more close to what I envision.

Basically, I'd say it's the skill fantasy and character creation fantasy that draws me to the Sims.
