With Sims 2 being a clusterfuck on re-release (colour me shocked) i'm dipping into Sims 3 which I never really got into at the time.

Sims 1 was fun at the time, but the difficulty now is too chaotic.

Sims 4 LOOKS very lovely, the graphics are a delight, the gameplay is somehow very empty indeed. I've spent hundreds on packs, expansions, kits etc trying to get a GAME out of it, and for whatever reason it's just not there.

Sims 3... I don't know what my issue is. It looks fine, I enjoy the open world where you can bop around the town without loading screens, I like the game play broadly it's just not grabbing me.

Sims 2, which is old and ugly and clunky and looks extra bad on modern PCs, still has the best actual game play. I look forward to a patch so I can play with it again. I do have the freebie one, but it's a pain in the tits to get it to run.

"Lyn, I didn't ask" no but you WERE wondering what my thoughts are on Sims games. You just didn't know it.
