Sims 3 was best, no? I feel like it was the full package and mostly complete right out of the box. Didn’t have the same feeling in 4 at all. Been some years since I tried 4, but when it launched I remember going back to 3 almost immediately after a couple weeks.

I did the same thing. It may have been because there weren’t as many dlcs and expansions, but it just felt really dull. Plus it didn’t have the completely open world like 3 did. Sitting through all those loading screens every time you wanted to go somewhere was a pain.

2 was by far the most polished, but 3 had more features so I guess ideal lies somewhere in the middle

All I want is someone to make an open world Sims 3 like game with 64-bit support and better multicore support. Can’t wait to see if Paralives and Life by You will deliver

Sims 3, with all its faults, is the golden age. Long live the mods.

I tried playing Sims 3 again recently and holy hell is the performance bad. Like the FPS is running at whatever I cap it at but there are constant freezes and stuttering with no FPS drops even with all the recommended performance mods. I then remembered I stopped playing for that very reason ages ago and now my desktop is like 100x more powerful.
