Remastering The Sims 1
Honestly, I just bought this game, very excited to play it again, just to find out it will not install on Windows 8 or 10. And that disappointed me considering I was very excited and looking forward ...

DICE TeamHi there,
We try to stay creative by thinking of new and fun ways to change the gameplay for our titles. Therefore we usually don't go for remasters if we could instead create an entire new game. Though, we certainly do understand that some of those older titles might actually be your favorites..
What did you enjoy so much about the Sims 1? How did you find it compared to Sims 3 and 4?
I adored The Sims 1. The storyline for your sims was a blank slate! The build editor for shopping and housing lots was fantastic. I do like how the sims age in The Sims 2, though. (You can always use a code to turn aging in The Sims 2 if you like.) I liked the fact that you could only have ONE spouse at a time in Sims 1. Then, if you break up they would would move out and just become a townie/spurned lover who came back to steal you paper or kick your trash can over. LOL
OH!! The random events in The Sims 1 were awesome! (Especially when 'Free Will' was turned on.) I really loved how basic Sims 1 was when it came to gameplay. The expansion packs filled in a lot of blanks.
Off Topic: I downloaded The Sims Mobile because I thought it would be exactly like The Sims 1 just on mobile devices & have better graphics. The LONG events and low paying jobs in The Sims Mobile kind of irk me a bit. Plus, in Sims Mobile you don't even need to take care of them - they have no vitals at all! ☹️ How can you call it 'The Sims' anything???
