The Sims #2 We still love it

1
I forgot there was a thread for The Sims. I've been out of the loop but wan't to start playing again. Could anyone recommend the best stuff/expansion/game packs to get? The last one I bought was University.
 
I think it’s subjective. My favourite Expansions are Seasons, horse Ranch, growing together, city living, cottage living and get together. Game packs i love are Parenthood, vampires and I can’t think of any more game packs st the moment, depends on your playstyle?
 
Thank you. I prefer playing as opposed to building. I used to enjoy making houses in previous games but find it too confusing on The Sims 4 or maybe I just realised all my builds are shite :ROFLMAO:
 
I'd love to help, but until recently, I barely had any packs and the ones I buy are pretty much just based on the build and buy catalogue 😅

I think James turner did a video recently om the most popular packs. Might be helpful for you!
 
Can anyone help me please. I’m trying to link my EA and Steam account so I can launch Sims 4 through Steam and although I’ve linked accounts the game isn’t showing in my Steam Library. I wanted to try the game on my Steam deck and thought this might be the easiest way to do it, thanks

I figured out that I just needed to download base game on the Steamdeck so now it’s downloading all my packs
 
Does anyone else really enjoy Lucid Simmer on YouTube ?

I'm such a fan of her Lucid legacy challenge it's so relaxing and her story telling imo is just the best .

All I will say is don't get roped into the crap 'freeplay' versions on Android and Apple.

All they are designed for is to extract as much £££ out you as possible, whilst offering an inferior experience.

Whilst they may start off like a regular game, you soon start hitting paywalls that require money to be spent, rather than waiting a long time.

That is one thing that was definately better in 2001.

None of this 'pay to win/progress' and 'in-app purchase' rip offs like you see today.

Totally agree. I also think that the reliance on being able to roll out game updates via Origin/EA store has made the dev team super lazy about getting expansions ready and bug-free in time for release. The expansion packs used to represent great value for money to add so much new content and gameplay. Now, all the different types of pack are equally sparse and generally don’t work for months, by which point they have released a ton of the ‘exclusive’ features for free into the base game and heavily discounted the pack from its original price. I won’t spend money on them again and still prefer playing Sims 2 to Sims 4! I only go into 4 to satisfy my building itch every once in a while.
