I STREAM THE SIMS 4 & SMITE EVERY WEEK ON TWITCH 🌆 CURRENT CHALLENGE: BEAUTIFYING BASE GAME 🌆
Been playing since 02, and when my baby sister was old enough, I taught her how to play - 20 years later, we still play side by side when we can (this happened literally this weekend)
anyway a lot of my memories are around opening new games with her, like Pets, which was basically the best ever, besides Nightlife

Was given sims3 as a gift, but skipped the tutorial thinking I didn't need it, and never really knew how to play so it was frustrating, plus I didn't have much time. Again, never got expansion packs.
Got sims4 after seeing someone else play, and played that obsessively for a while. It was missing something, seemed very shallow, not much in the way of excitement, and everything felt built around just clothes and useless decor rather than gameplay. That has improved a bit since, but it's still the least like simming of them all. Too easy, no real thrills or chills. Good for building and decorating virtual dollhouses, not so good if you want that old simming thrill of things being at least a little unpredictable and funny or sometimes spooky.
Before the EA app, I rotated between sims4, sims3, and sims2. Now, I rotate between two PCs, one strictly offline and never updated using Origin so my sims3 is just as it was, and one online with the ea app. That's getting better for sims3 but still a pain, and works fine with sims4. Sims2 is on the offline pc only as it's another legacy game and has started crashing or corrupting or something. Too bad, because when it works well, it's perhaps the best of the series.
I wish I could play sims1 again. It was shallow compared to sims2 etc but something about the perpetual springtime, the whistling paperboy, the daytime TV show sounds, Bob Newbie watching cartoons and eating pizza in his stained t-shirt, Bella Goth sighing in bliss as she sinks onto a much-needed bubble bath...and of course the unforgettable music.

I first played original Sims in 2003, which feels like a lifetime ago. The Sims 2 was my favorite of the series, although I feel like I have the most nostalgia for The Sims 3 because I loved so many aspects of it and was hooked on some incredible stories people were writing about their Sims.
Listening to the classic or retro (I can't remember what it's called) radio station in The Sims 4 makes my heart so happy because it plays Sims 1 music <3 Then when I hear Sims music on commercials, I can never NOT point it out, lol.
