The Sims

[Macintosh Manhattan 6,511]

Yeah that's what I thought but I don't think my pc is powerful enough to run sims 4 

I'm running mine on a Windows 7 PC on low graphics. It's not a very high spec set up I have but I've got a decent enough RAM so runs it quite well. It can take a little time to start the game but afterwards loading in is quite short.

I'm gonna take a look, thank you! I've been craving some Sims for a while and since I deleted Sims 3 from my pc a while ago I might try and play Sims 4.

Oh wow this is massive, thank you! I think I'm gonna hold myself for a while and now download any cc for now because when I start I can't stop lmao my cc folder for Sims 3 had so many stuff it was ridiculous. But I might look into it if the game starts to get boring.

 

Gonna take a look on that guide though

it makes me sad how much the franchise has basically fallen; literally all the sims games before 4 were really fun to play. i feel like 4 actually really had potential but so many features were left out of it and the expansion packs were really minimal compared to those of the previous games. i'm really hoping they fix stuff up for the sims 5 but i'm not holding my breath for EA.

Yes!! I can always go back to 2 and 3! They both have so much more lore and character interactions..and Sims 3 borrowed a lot of animations from the sims 2, but with 4 they didn’t reuse any animation so they had to make a whole new set from the ground up and it really shows! It’s so sad because a moder can create a whole open world, and the team can’t even do simple animations!

 

im looking at newer lifestyle games like paralives and my little sims world, but like you I’m also kinda just holding out for Sims 5. I was super disappointed when they basically announced it won’t be until at least 2022 (they have the full 2021 figured out).

Sims 4 base game I bought on release. It was the most expensive by far and completely unfinished. Unplayable. I used to be kinda poor and would be able to play only the base game for YEARS. I played through the sims 4 base game in 2 weeks. All of the DLC has been stupid, overpriced, and was played out in a week. I stopped buying packs in 2017 and have since quit playing all together. Hundreds of dollars wasted. Just play a unlegal free copy or skip it entirely. I have no hope for sims 5 and frankly they don't deserve my money.

I am a big fan of the sims franchise as well. I had high hopes when sims 4 firstly came out but I instantly lost interest when I started playing . I think that it is the worse compared to the rest. I really despise the element of not having an open world,  when it was in fact advertised as so ahead of its time with its new additions to not be able to walk freely through neighborhoods. 

I am really looking forward to paralives and in the meantime I prefer playing the sims 3 and its expansion packs 

[lilyyyy 36]

the sims 4 is basically shit without expansion packs or custom content. idk why the dlc/expansion packs are so expensive. like they really aren't worth what you pay for them. ea has really fucked up the game.

[May 13,312]

the issue really is that the DLC doesnt even add anything. like yes, even for TS2 and TS3 the dlc was expensive, but the content that they added had a LOT of detail to it and really changed things for your sims. the sims 4 base game is piss-poor but the dlc doesn't add much to the actual gameplay - it's mostly just superficial. compare island living to island paradise, for example. for ts3 you got mermaids, resorts, houseboats, new traits, scuba diving, fully-fleshed out world and lots more...for ts4, you got mermaids (just sims with a tail), scuba diving (as a rabbit hole) and...not much else. the dlc is fun for an hour or so but it just doesn't do ANYTHING apart from add a nice gloss to the limited gameplay already. 

 

and even so, the approach to releasing DLC is pretty gross. like why was tiny living not part of university life? why are vampires, realm of magic, and paranormal stuff separate? fucking journey to batuu (and i say this as a mega star wars fan). the fact that they're bringing out "kits" now, too, fills me with zero hope for the franchise. don't even get me started on the sims themselves - they have no personality in sims 4, with the traits doing absolutely nothing to change the way they work. the emotion system is terrible, too.

 

honestly, sims 4 was doomed for the get-go. when they switched from online to offline last minute, they doomed the game. it was delivered half-baked and continues to be so. it's coming up to 7 years since it was released and there is still nothing worth of note

lmao didnt know we had a thread here.... but for ts2 users, i do have a pretty accurate lana sim that i made! download ha if ya want xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sims 3 is probably my fave Sims Game. Recently I started to play Sims 2 again and I love it

Sometimes I play Sims 4 with some extansion packs but it feels so boring. I think the previous sims games are more chaotic & fun

the sims 3 is the best life simulator to exist period. the only flaw with the game is how it was programmed to work on extremely specific computer specs

if only full-blown graphics mods were a thing for sims games the same way they are with other games like gta... id literally never come off sims 3. i love it but sometimes the graphics can be hard on my eyes

 

what’s everyone’s thoughts on Paralives?
