The Sims: 1, 2, 3 Anonymous 09/29/2024 (Sun) 21:53:46 Id: eca229 No. 1020562
Thread for the discussion, gameplay & screencap sharing of The Sims 1, 2, 3 & 4? 1st Question: >Which Sims is the best? (1, 2, or 3?) 2nd Question: >Have any characters / families / houses to screenshot & share? 3rd Question: >Recommend any good mods? Tell any stories about your time playing The Sims™.
If you want to play the Sims 1: https://github.com/voicemxil/TS-Starter-Pack I recommend following this Starter Pack (web installer) + Use the installation guide (it's really short): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gKoQyXQKPA9hTtywt8OWEZzb4-9615uaSlibAPGb5Oc/edit ... If you want to play The Sims 2: (use the web installer): https://github.com/voicemxil/TS2-Starter-Pack + read this guide also: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UT0HX3cO4xLft2KozGypU_N7ZcGQVr-54QD9asFsx5U/edit#heading=h.5t80i9q0zk0q
Was the existing thread not sufficient.
>>1020582 Which thread? The Sims 5 is canceled thread?
>>1020583 Yes. >>1020582 Good point.
>>1020588 That's basically a /news/ thread. It isn't really a thread for Sims 1, 2, 3 discussion.
>>1020591 Whatever, can we talk about simcopter? Cuz I got bored of Sims like 20 fucking years ago, but hitting rioters with tear gas canisters, and then giving them a very long guided helicopter tour of our great city before finally dropping them on the hospital from 300 ft for a guaranteed fatality will never EVER get old.
>>1020592 >Whatever, can we talk about simcopter? Sure, you can talk about Simcopter, Sim City, & Sim Ant as well.
>>1020562 >Which Sims is the best? (1, 2, or 3?) 1-3 all has their charm But 2 is that sweet spot its amazing how its not nostalgia on part and videos actually exist show casing I didn't imagine how polished it was. 1 had a abundance of soul but it was the first game of the series there was wrinkles 3 was ambitious but is held back by alot of things it found its footing near the end but large problems were still existent like terrible load times >4 I never tried it bar the base game. Suffice to say I was not impressed enough to even look at the expansions >Have any characters / families / houses to screenshot & share? >Recommend any good mods? >Tell any stories about your time playing The Sims™. I recreated the pleasant family for sims 3 including the husband just to cuck him from his wife and created a harem with his daughters and the maid with the wicked whims mod. All this before I knew cucking was even a thing.
Sims 2 had the cutiest sims, I used to make my cute sim girl make out with other cute girls and I would fap to it (don't tell my mom). Sims 3 sims are fugly potato-faced trolls, I don't know how they fucked up that bad.
>>1020627 Sims 3 also had the best gameplay so it balanced out. I wish there was a better version of 3 that was more stable and didn't look quite so strange.
>>1020562 >best? 3>2>>1>>>>>>>>4. 3 would rank a bit higher if it didn't run like ass. No game should have a warning to turn off DLC to make the game run well. There are tons of guides to help boost the performance at least, but it is always annoying having to go through a checklist of fixes. Moving on, I'm not saying 1 was bad, I just got too used to the features in later games. That aside, the music in Sims 1 is still embedded in my head, and I have no problem with that. 4 on the other hand was a downgrade in far too many ways. The gameplay, the customization, etc all felt like a step backward from previous games. The fact they chose to stick with it over trying again with a new possibly better game tells me they probably lack the talent to make a new game. Which is also probably why large parts of their Sims 4 DLC have been broken or just extremely buggy. >mods Nraas for sims 3. It has so many useful bits that I wouldn't play without it.
The only good thing what came out of TS4 was the Meme House by Joel. It was a fucking brainrot, and nice background noise for my workout. Also its funny how many time the game shitted itself under it. Like that fecalmatter wasnt even good for a simple streaming. TS3 atleast had an excuse to run shit (its massive even without expansions), but TS 4 is barebone at best. However TS2 is a whole different story. You could play that shit so long your characters and families take over the whole fucking city several generations later. You can tell the devs behind it really cared. Its a shame how they didnt sticked with TS3 to root out the performance issues.
>>1020826 >spore on the pc That's somehow a more sadder story then the sims.

>>1020601 The gurgling sounds they make as they choke to death on their own blood is easily the most gruesome, and also coolest thing a dev has ever had in a video game, that I believe was rated E? Thats why you take so long on the medevac. >Simant Fairly badass snes rts, about ants. Everyone's played a little bit I am guessing, enough to understand lawn warfare. But if you played long enough you could infiltrate the house, and also make war on rival ant tribes. Good fun. Dismembering and then eating your enemies is fairly fucking brutal as well. >SimCity Absolutely no interest. Fuck civics.
>>1020962 Bowser is in it, though. It's canon to Mario lore. And also to Link's Awakening.
>>1020592 SimCopter and Streets of SimCity had so much wasted potential. Imagine more games using maps made in city-builders to play around in. I could see a GTA-like game or a multiplayer FPS that uses maps from a city-builder.

>>1020962 >Absolutely no interest. Fuck civics. It's not about the civics, it's about gaming the system to create nightmares.
What are your guys go to mods for each game? I'm not asking for a comprehensive list, just mods that you usually add when you reinstall whichever of the games you play. There's one for 2 that backports the traits system from 3 and I enjoy how it can combo with the existing star sign system enough that I can't play without it.
