Addicted To Sims 2
in The Sims 2
Sims 2 is like my favorite! Oddly it used to be Sims 3, but the more I play TS2 the more I love it! I have tried to get into TS4 but I just can't get into it like I can TS2. Now I just wish TS2 had horses! :P

If you don't mind CC, there are definitely horses and poseboxes for gorgeous TS2 photos. In my hood my boarding school has stables.
Here are some links to get you started:

Do the horses move or are they just for looks? Thanks!
I linked the mod above for the rideable horses. The animation isn't going to be TS3 level of course, but you get your moving horses
Happy simming!
@MidnightAura same here!
I thouht Sims 3 was good but ive been converted!
Just dont understand it they were on a winning formula with sims 2 and 3...what happened?
Ah well back to simming
Glad you're liking it!
Yes, they were. Sims 2 is great. As to what happened? I think most of us are still trying to figure that out.
Welcome to the club! As to what happened.....greed
The more you play The Sims 2, the more you see how much depth, detail and gameplay it has. I also love The Sims 3 and the beautiful open world but I understand how someone can get addicted to The Sims 2.
Actually I think I am addicted too, since last week I've read someone talking about how they lost their Mansion and Garden so I immediately felt a little bit of anxiety and searched for a used Mansion and Gardens disk here in my country. Fortunately I found one (the Last one) in the biggest online retailer here, for a very affordable price. So now I have all the collection plus two Mansion and Gardens. I know, greedy. But I see myself playing this game and The Sims 3 for a long time, maybe till The Sims 5.
Hear! Hear! I just hope TS5 will be like TS2 with an open or partially open world (e.g., similar to TS4) with all the amazing content that TS3 had
@nanashi-sims - Me too! I don't mind having a semi open world as long as it's like TS2 and TS3
You would think that Sims 2+Sims 3 = Sims 4 but instead its more like Sims 3 + Sims 4 = Sims 2
Anyways don't mean to stir the pot
Loving the depth! Just discovered plants you us to decorate your gardens actually need trimming from time to time and wild weeds grow everywhere!!!
I love this game!!!!!!
Now i just need mod to slow the clock down like the relativity mod for Sims 3
Seems there arent any sort of mods from my searches but no matter found a good one for individual ageing on and off as well as individual free will which makes life a lot easier....and more control for me
*steeples fingers*
Excellent
Reminds me I need to find Castaway. Glad you're having a ton of fun!
Yuppers
I was bored today & thought I'd play around with photoshop.
that would be... how can I put it?
Perfect.
also: working wall cabinets. I'd like to see Sims storing their food in wall cabinets for a change.
But at least in TS2 they will sometimes use the counter drawer while cooking (I noted this yesterday and found it super cute).
Ive just noticed that as well! Didn't realise they actually use cupboards when cooking, so many little hidden gems
I really must sleep....must stop playing sims 2......maybe one more hour.....

this sounded really familiar for me...
I haven't played The Sims 2 for years and after trying to enjoy The Sims 4 and giving up TS4 now I feel like a junkie for The Sims 2.
I hope my obsession will get to normal levels like it is with TS3 though, this is not normal, heh.
That's why I can't play it when I'm busy because I know once I start... I'm not coming back up for air for at least a fortnight!
This is why I don't think I'm being unfair in my critique of the other Sims games. EA and Maxis got the formula right, so there is no reason outside of lack of talent or will that they can't get it right again
I think you hit the nail on the head as to why TS4 is so lacking in comparison to TS2. It is NOT the same team that originally worked on it. Ergo, they don't have the talent/ability to make it what it was, and that is VERY sad. And EA doesn't seem to care so long as people continue to buy their products. As long as they show a profit, that's ALL they care about. Certainly NOT the consumer!
