I definitely have not been playing the sims for nineteen years because my parents hated the sims games. So I had to sneak it when I was a kid and the first game I played sims wise was sims 2 pets on gameboy...I didn't get into PC sims playing until Sims 4 was out and from there I went backwards.
I think everyone is entitled to their own opinions and all that good stuff but I never really understood why people compared sims 3 to sims 4. Sims 3 had a ton of gameplay, don't get me wrong...I really need the elders in sims 4 to get a cane...actually I need all the lifespans except adults to be revamped because yikes. Anywho, I got sick of the rabbitholes and I could only have a few eps going at once because, i had a low end laptop, and I just got sick of playing it.
Right now I think Sims 2 is the best one because of the intense gameplay and the fact that you could actually go into places. It was annoying but I liked how the groceries would run out and you had to either go to the store or get groceries delivered to you. And the vacations...yeah sims 2 really did it for me when I played it. I still play it when I'm prepared to stare at a screen all day long.
But the Sims 4 is my favorite and I believe when it's complete it has the potential to be the best one. I do understand a few critiques but honestly the sims 4 is amazing. Sims 4 is lacking in gameplay when it comes to family things. And for me that means canes for elders, being able to place picture frames on tables, being able to go to school with the kids, having bachelorette parties, being able to actually dance together and not next to each other, honestly more romance interactions in general would be great. Someone else said it earlier (sorry I forgot who) but it needs an expansion pack that's focused on just gameplay. No new world, just an expansion pack that adds some good gameplay to make things more realistic. We need a generations pack. I NEED A PROM. A PROM I CAN ACTUALLY SEE.
I don't know what my point was in this post
It's currently 3am so I think I'm just talking to talk but...yeah.
But I think the expansion pack looks amazing and it seems pretty darn full to me. I already have a few things planned for it.
