The Sims 2's rate of progression just feels far more satisfying though, and when you achieve something, it feels you really earned it. I don't get that feeling in The Sims 4 because I feel it's just way too easy and predictable at every corner.
And, of course, the little things like having to physically go to a grocery store to be able to feed your Sims, clothing stores to buy new clothes, owning a shop/restaurant your Sim loves going to, owning multiple vacation homes, multiple cars, etc. just makes it worthwhile and fun.
I so agree even better than Sims 3 as Sims 3 is very good and has excellent features but it lacks on the Sims part. There is more editing tools for Sims 2 and in Sims 4 you cannot edit anything outside of the lots and Sims 3 shine in this area. Sims Worlds are the same regardless on what lots you lay down as the playing field is permanently static.
