Can't access old gameplay

Hi! So, I've played The Sims 4 on a laptop that has been wiped clean and that I don't even have access to anymore. I downloaded the game again on the current laptop and, surprise surprise, I can't access my old gameplay. I've seen people saying that I have to copy the files manually from one computer to another, but that isn't possible for me. Is there really no way to play my old gameplay? Thanks.
