Happy Anniversary from this simmer also!
What does the Sims mean to me? It's been different things over the years. A place to decompress and destress from real life problems or more serious issues. A place to create stories and delve into a fantasy world that is mine alone. Sometimes too, as simple as a place just to relax and enjoy what's in front of me a little more casually.
I get attached to the little people and in turn can be a benevolant or fearful god. It's a safe place to do all this.
I like how many ways there are to play these games and that has only grown over the years for me due to various additions made to the game.
I started with The Sims in 2000. I have so many great memories associated with the game and even with my family enjoying the game and having discussions about it also. I loved Sims 2 just as much if not more than the first one and expanded more on my ways to play it to tell stories... such a great outlet. Fast forward to now and for me it's only gotten better. Many of the things I dreamed would come to the series are in it.. and I mean literally daydreamed about.. usually lying in bed before sleep thinking.... I wish they could do this... or that. I wish we had this..
For me this and that is happening right now.
Can you be in love with a video game?
