- Sims 2, definitely. I hate the Sims 3 faces, and Sims 4 is just way too cartoony.
- I've always liked the color scheme of the original the most.
- OldeSimsFan5 years agoSeasoned AceTS2 It may be old but the graphics are still good - sims are much better than either 1 or 3 (hair even moves), unlike in 4 you can get close to walls & floors and they still look believable, objects have amazing detail - even in places where you wouldn't expect it, map view is more detailed and is customizable. Snow looks like snow and has depth. It still delivers the goods even after 15 years.

As much as I hated ts3 style, it is still better than the other choices.
Ditto to this haha - Sims 2 has aged best in my opinion. Sims 3 looks great, and Sims 1 is special in its own way, but overall TS2 is by far the best considering it's almost 16 years old. You can zoom into a sweater and see individual threads on Sims 2, can't do that in any of the other Sims games.
- Magdaleena965 years agoSeasoned AceThe scenery and lighting in TS3 is still my favorite. The sims themselves, on the other hand......
- Sims 3 of course! <3 :) <3 It is better and looks better than all the other three combined! :)
- It's really quite a hard choice as TS2 & 3 aged like two types of fine wine (TS1 has its own campy charms).
On one hand, TS2 really does offer an unparalleled and unified game experience out of the box, and the art-style has really aged quite well due to the high quality of the textures, while the charm of the premades persists over the years.
On the other hand, TS3 is really one of those games that gives you so much freedom as to how you want to tell your stories. It's almost broken and ugly out of the box (you will need NRAAS and some default replacements), but with mods- it truly transforms the Sims from being a household simulator, to being a community simulator. I have NRAAS Tagger (which allows you to follow sims from Map View), and I'm always fascinated at how the game simulates sims running around town, each doing their own things, living their own lives, etc.
So...to each their own! - EricasMyTouchQ5 years agoSeasoned AceSims 2 has aged the best to me. I still play it 16 years later. I enjoy everything about this game. The gameplay is also the best.
- texxx785 years agoSeasoned Ace1 and 2 look too dated now.
