I do prefer Sims 3

I've been playing Sims 2 and the Sims 2 Open World EP for Sims 3 which was made available with the NRaas Mod collection.I've got the entire Sims 3 collection installed and use tons of Mods with tons of CC and the game almost never lags though it can take upt to three minutes to load if it's an EA world.

@TadOlson I have not heard of the Sims 2 Open World EP for Sims 3 before. What is it?

I prefer sims 3 also and it being out longer makes me want to play it more anyways. With sims 4 you have to wait a while until something released applies to you and more mods too since so many break after updates

Whats' that?

Honestly, I do miss being able to fully customize the colors and patterns of things, and open world is nice. Sims 3 is what I was introduced to Sims with, so it will always hold a special place in my heart, and I still play it depending on what kind of game I feel like doing at a given time.

On the other hand, Sims 3 loading the game or a town takes forever, and the open world eventually bogs down my games to the point that even doing a Legacy Challenge I have to save the sims out and drop them into a fresh world every few gens - or else things go so slow it's ridiculous. 4 may mean loading when traveling, but there's a part of me that will take that since the game thus far runs so much nicer. Plus CAS is a huge deal for me. Even with the cartoony features, I like the CAS way more than the sliders of sims 3.
