EA should just scrap all plans for Sims 5 and start working on this instead.
I think EA should concentrate on creating Sims 5 and fixing bugs in Sims 4 first. Then after a few packs for Sims 5 come out,EA can start working on a Sims 2 remaster if they want to They may not even want to do a Sims 2 remaster.

Doesn’t this already exist? Isn’t this the version being sold on the Mac App Store right now?
Not with better graphics and support.
The Mac version also doesn't contain everything Ultimate Collection has. They never finished Sims 2 for Mac. I played on a Windows partition on my Mac so I could have everything.

Yeah, I was sad that I didn't get those other two expansions. I never got to play them.
I can't go back to the closed world and not being able to travel from world to world. Pass.
You could travel from world to world in TS2...
You can't go from Pleasantview to Veronaville. Or has it been that long since I've been able to play it?
Either way, the worlds are so dull looking, I can't go back.
You couldn't go between the pre-made neighborhoods. But you could go from your neighborhood to Downtown(s) and Bluewater. A lot of people had an Uberhood created on MTS that converted the other neighborhoods into downtowns of Pleasantview. Or, did what I did and used SimPE to move the Sims and houses from all the neighborhoods into a cleaned neighborhood. There was also the three travel destinations and 3 University worlds you could go to.
It was nice when they added the ability to travel between them all with 3&4. A remastered version of 2 would need that added.

I voted no - it's just not something I'd be into personally.
It's odd really, because when I was much younger I loved TS2 and I remember playing it so often. I'm pretty sure I had hardly any DLC for it either but still found it fun. However, I was able to get my hands on the Ultimate Collection maybe about a year or two ago and so I went back to TS2 and absolutely hated every minute of it.
As I was trying to remember all the controls and gameplay, it frustrated me how "needy" my Sims were. I spent a good portion of my time fulfilling their needs because they seemed to go down so quickly. I know people say needs in TS4 are so easy but honestly, I prefer it that way so I can focus on other aspects of gameplay. I know it's probably such a weird thing to comment on but it was enough to make me give up playing after a couple days lol.
Sims 4 Wish List:
> Option to toggle on/off random townie generation.
> Turn vacation worlds into residential worlds.
> Option to purchase separate worlds or a world pack.

It also only has 3 of the 10 stuff packs.
I did not know TS2 had that many stuff packs.
Happy Holiday, Family Fun, Glamour Life, Holiday (a repackaging of Happy Holiday with new items added), Celebration, H&M, Teen Style, Kitchen and Bath, Ikea, and Mansion and Garden.
I guess that's technically only 9 since one was a re-packaging. Ikea was probably my most used one.

That's fair. I know with sims 2 there's a sort of progression. Needs are a bit tricky in the beginning, especially when you're playing a full house of Sims with no skills. But as your sim progresses in their careers or aspirations for example, you get unlocks that make life a little easier.
With sims 4 I feel like it's already pretty easy to manage and then you get unlocks that only make it much easier. So at least for myself there's no sense of progression.
It comes down to the individual but I know what you mean. My younger self always whipped out the cheats for the first 2 games. 😅

That doesn't count. I like being able to go to the other cities, not the stupid downtown area.
Hello Simmers! and everyone at EA/ Maxis, i got started on sims3 for the wii, so never experienced sims1 or sims2, but what i've heard about sims2 it would be cool to do a remake
Yes! The Sims 2 is my all time favorite of the series, and after being stubborn for so long I kind of moved on to The Sims 4, but I would LOVE a remaster. I still play Sims 2 once in a while.
I mean even if the textures are refreshed The Sims 2 CAS and Build Mode are such a pain.
The only things I would keep from TS2 are the Live Mode and CANh (Create-A-Neighborhood).
Sure, a remastered version would be nice to play with my old savegames but I used a ton of CC (10 164 packages),
the modders would have to refresh their creations too.

What's the difference?
Not to mention you can even create your own downtown and make it look like something else. What an ignorant comment.
Yes x1000
Although TS3 is my fave of the whole series, I say TS2 is the actual best in the series. I could have fun with just the base for days on end. I'm not currently playing it, but I have the Ultimate Collection. I never had as much fun with a Sims game than I did with TS2. I didn't even know a community, mods, and cc existed at the time when I was playing it. LOL
I wouldn't want a "remaster", Sims 2 is great as it is. What I mean when I say yes to this question is that I hope The Sims 5 is like Sims 2, but with better graphics and other features.

That's because they have no taste.
