  • Taking a break from rotational play because I've found out Sims 2 loading screens are still as annoying as ever. For the moment, I made a family I'm playing as a solo thing, so no rotation for them. Just having them live together until death, rinse and repeat, not really caring too heavily if their friends age with them or…
  • My mother really liked Sims 1, and I remember being around 3 or 4 when she let me have a chance of playing it. I was a bit young to really get into it, but I remember her buying Sims 2 a year or two after and I instantly became obsessed. After that, I had to have every pack, and she thankfully got them for me. Specifically…
  • It's been a while since I've played Sims 2, so I decided to reset the Pleasantview hood and start fresh in it. I'm giving rotational play a chance, which will be the first time I've ever actually tried it, and I've been playing this game since I was a kid so... Better late than never, eh? I wanted to go ahead and get the…
  • I'm a terrible rotational player, too, and never even really tried as a kid. I just made my family and stuck to them forever. And because I hated rotating families, I would just make everyone from the family live together until death. That means grandma and grandpa had to go before I had any new kids. I preferred doing it…
  • I reset my neighborhoods a lot because the starting premades are so good. Depending on which premade I start with depends on how I do the Cass/Darren/Don thing. If I start with Darren, I have him become enemies with Don and fight it out to win her heart, making that playboy run away like a coward. If I start with Don, I…
  • Absolutely not, because look at Sims 4. If they had kept making content for Sims 2, we'd get a terrible let down of a game eventually. The Sims 2 is perfect, or at least nearly perfect, as it is right now. Plus, we'd be forced to play with discs still, most likely, and since most desktops and laptops are being made without…
  • They really need to release the Stories for digital download. They did it with Sims 2 (for only a few years, but whatever), so they can do it for the Stories.
  • Neighborhood stories, and adult family bios. Firstly - Neighborhood stories were the absolute best things ever, because you could build your town from the ground up and add all the details in those stories about your townies. It made the game much more customizable, and more story friendly that just 'here, play this.' It…
  • I don't consider Sims 1 as a Sims game, because it actually isn't a game at all. It was a program used for house buyers. In no way was it supposed to be a video game, but when Maxis saw that their users actually had fun in it they figured they could make some money off it. And obviously they made A LOT. But the fact still…
  • Sims 1: Superstar Sims 2: University Sims 3: University Sims 4: Parenthood Superstar was amazing because I could basically go to work with my Sims, instead of just sit and wait for them to get home from their regular jobs. The only thing I didn't like was the Sims 1 basics itself - the fact that I had to CONSTANTLY keep up…
  • Reinstalled Sims 2 a few weeks back, but have just messed around. Tomorrow I'm planning on getting a game rolling. I plan on playing most of Pleasantview premades, and adding in a few of my own Sims into the mix for fresh drama. My plan is this: First, get rid of the Dreamer household. They bore me, and I don't want…
  • @puzzlezaddict Thanks for the info!~ I do plan on having an SSD, although just an OK one starting out. They're still pricey, so I'd rather start with low numbers for those and work my way up. Even a small one will help, I know. I plan for a desktop. I've played on laptops only for most of my life, but I feel like it's time…
  • I haven't played Sims 2 in years (Sims 3 took up most of my time), but after reinstalling a few weeks ago I did find out something new to me. I thought I had already discovered everything as a kid and nothing could surprise me, but nope. I was playing a random Sim I had made for Uni, just to get the hang of the school life…
  • Hello~~ I'm Aleksandra, but just call me Aleks if you want :smiley: I've been playing since Sims 1, although I was real young then. I was 3 or 4 when my mother let me play, and after that I was obsessed. I had every Sims 2 game, and then later every Sims 3 game. I played these daily, usually after school, but during the…
  • I was real young when my mother bought my Sims 2, but I'll never forget my first save. This was maybe 2 years before Sims 3, so there were a lot of expansions. My mother only bought me the base game starting out, just to see if I liked it - She didn't want to waste any extra money if I didn't. So, I started with the iconic…
  • I consider my way of play to be half and half. Half of the time I'm helping them get their Wants, and trying to avoid their Fears. The other half I'm doing what I want to do, and just letting their Wants and Fears exist while I have a bit of fun with their lives. Even when I'm focusing on their Wants, I'm still trying to…
  • Oh, also, I do have the NRAAS mods that help with lag, but not even they can fix this
  • Hello~ I'm in desperate need of some PC tech advice if any are willing to give it? I have a 6 year old laptop that can play any game besides Witcher 3 and Sims 3 (Gabe was right, Threequels are a curse). Everything runs smoothly on medium, and I'm happy with that. As long as the game runs, I couldn't care less about how…
