It’s as if they’re actors who can’t remember their lines or don’t realize it’s their cue to speak. “Listen here you dirty two-timer! *smiles at camera* Did I say that right?”
The divorce one too Like the sims 2 the kids were angry and crying when they saw the parents divorce while sims 4 they just cry for 2 seconds and that's it nothing else
The fact that in the Sims 2, they can be upset over a deleted object is one of my favourite details, and it works because Sims actually have relationships with objects coded into the game! It’s the same reason ghosts often go back to their old beds and cheer when it’s still there or sims missing an object when it’s stolen by a burglar. The game uses this in place of something like the Sims 4’s bed assignment system, because it makes the sim recognise something as belonging to them. It’s a really subtle and sophisticated system going on in the background!
@@Star.gazrrr As far as I know favorite objects are chosen based on how much the sim uses it. Usually its bed, car, couches and various entertaiment objects. Strangely enough, I haven't ever seen sim/or ghost missing the fridge, dining chairs/table or toilet much, even though they have used it every day, so some objects must be an exeption.
In Sims 2 not only the reactions are on point, but they also DIFFERENT depending on personality and relationship. When watching Sims fight, nice Sims will run out of the room, mean Sims will cheer the fighters on, only Sims who are friends with either on of the fighting Sims will express concern. When witnessing Sims who pissed themselves, Sims who do not know them will LAUGH at the affected Sim. Children who witness parents fighting will either cry (nice) or get angry (mean) Sloppy Sims will giggle at burps and farts, but neat Sims will express disgust. Sims will also react when the Sim who has high chemistry is nearby When witnessing Sims who died, Sims who don't really know the dying Sim will sigh sadly, Sims who don't like the dying Sim will laugh. Sims will cover their eyes when going out doors during hot sunny days, and shiver when going out in snow days.
So much thought went into traits & personalities in TS2, there's still so many things probably undiscovered. We have yet to see a life sim with this amount of coding...
You're totally right! The attention and amount of details was insane in S2. Back in the day, Sims 2 was made with love, now it's cleary made for money 😢 it sucks (by the way your video was great 🙏)
I guess you are confusing sims 2 and Sims 3. In 2, they had no *personality" they had stats. Yet they reacted according their stats, for example my Sim was turned on by bad smells and red hair, but his wife was red head and had high neat stat. She had a bladder accident so she was down to red and he got visibly turned on, tried to get her to the bed but she was "not in the mood" and cries. This was sims 2. Sims 3 had personalities instead of stats. My sim has hot headed and disciplined, meets a diva sim while there's an evil sim and a good sim watching. Diva makes comment on my Sim, my sim immediately fights diva, evil sim cheers and laugh it out while good sim panics.
Another example that The Sims 4 is a half-baked, dlc greedy, cashgrab While The Sims 2 is what EA "used" to be, even The Sims 3 wasn't that greedy. I mean sure it had poor optimization, but with Sims 3 you only needed the base game to enjoy it and you still got a good amount of content
The Sims 3 evolved in a bunch of things, like open world, no loading screens, color wheel etc, so I personally believe that maybe the developers focused so much in the brand new content that they were forced to slightly downgrade some details. Yes, it'd be better if they existed in TS3 but at least it still gave us several new things. I think that TS3 doesn't deserve to be called greedy because it didn't disappoint.
I've started playing Sims 3 again yesterday and even with the base game only it's so much more fun than 4. It's not the prettiest game imo but gameplay-wise it has so much to offer. Same with Sims 2, which will always be my favourite!
It’s funny looking back, because the Sims 2 expansion packs were still a case of cash grabbing, since it was like £30 per expansion pack and still meant the full game cost upwards of £300. The difference is, back then, they knew they really had to put care and effort into it, or people just wouldn’t buy. In the modern era, they’ve made so much money out of the franchise, that they feel that they can just force players to pay thousands for a full game experience in The Sims 4.
The most greedy the sims 3 ever got was the store but everything else you can tell was made with passion and love. The packs were so fleshed out and detailed and even with the base game there's still so much to do it's a very hard game to get bored of
So funny how TS4 was advertised as the most emotionally complex Sims in the franchise. Yet the girl seeing her mom showering in TS2 was INSTANT. Where TS4 the girl had to pause and then go "Eeek!" TS4 honestly could have been so much better if they scrapped the entire thing and started from the ground up, instead of building off a preexisting code for an online game. Like it's no mystery that TS4's faults lie within its spaghetti coding. If TS4 was exactly like TS2 but had its graphics and CAS/Build systems, it could have been the best.
Sims 2 is how real people would react when they run into someone in the shower. The only time Sims 2 Sims get delayed reaction is when they are busy doing something else. Sims 4 have to freeze for a while and "Oh, you're here and you're NUDE!"
You can blame EA for that. EA told Maxis to make Sims 4 multiplayer online only...like they told Maxis to make SimCity 2013...and we ALL know how that went. So Maxis made the game they were told and were almost finished with it before EA scrapped the whole thing (after seeing what happened with SimCity 2013) and then told Maxis to make our current Sims 4 game from scratch with only 6 months to do it. The Sims 4 should have been post-poned for at least a good 4 years not 6 months... But EA being money-hungry and all that. They would still have a good reputation if Sims 3 lasted another 4 years instead of forcing Maxis to make a game that clearly wasn't ready. They did the best they could. :(
Sims 2: Human emotions that last for days and create memories that can resurface Sims 4: Sudden wacky animation with cheering followed by remembering they ate an edible 3 hours ago and giggling
This only confirms that EA never understood what actually made The Sims a success, after the creator left the development team the game became what corporate thought it was about, a dollhouse simulator. You build, decorate and play with expressionless mannequins.
I remember last year, I was trying to give Don the ultimate slapfest by having him invite all his lovers over so they could catch him cheating with the garden club lady. But before I could set things in motion, Tybalt Capp shows up to steal Don's newspaper because he was a grouchy guy, and everyone on the lot: Don, Kaylynn, Cassandra, Dina, Nina, and the Garden Club lady all turned to point and yell at Tybalt as he ran off the lot with the paper. XD
In the Sims 4, after reacting in a bit of second they are back to normal again just like standing doing nothing and always smiling. They were like robots. A generation of nonchalant Sims
One of my pet peeves about Sims 4 is the constant emotion changes. A sims finds their spouse cheating. They get mad for 2 seconds, then happy and then excited, all within a span of 10 seconds. I get whiplash with all the emotion changes.
0:20 On top of that, the sims2 has 3 different reactions to fights depending on the sim’s personality. 10:25 I’d be pissed if my TV disappeared while I was watching it too 😂
Instead of Project Rene I want to see EA & Maxis make a 4K ultra HD remaster of The Sims 2 with every DLC installed. But unfortunately they never will because they are EVIL!
Something I just remembered about The Sims' reaction to death is another moodlet would overpower their sad moodlet, even if it includes hearing about the death of another Sim. I think that's something Maxis should consider in the next Sims game (if there will be one).
Even in Sims 3, the death moodlet (or any negative ones for that matter) weren’t overpowered by them. Even if their mood bar was in the green they would STILL cry every now and again.
Wow youre right half the time they just stand there chuckling. NO SOCIAL AWARENESS NO BRAIN CELLS. Also how are your TS4 sims at least sitting down? Mine just stand around and NO AWARENESS of wedding happening
The Sims 2 is the best sims game tbh, it was made w so much attention to details. I played for YEARS with only the base game and it was super fun, once I got all the expansions it only got better. As a long time fan, seeing how we went from that to whatever the hell TS4 has going on is very sad
I don't how true the story of the original build being lost to an office fire is, but if the TS2 is the game we got despite that major setback... my god. TS4 could never and will never.
Simlish sounded so good in TS2 as well, the way Sims in general speak much more "fluently" really helps it sound like a foreign language rather than funny noises read dispassionately off of a script
TS4 Sims creep me out. They may be having the worst day, but just (figuratively) jingle your keys in front of their faces and they'll be happy again. I really dislike that emotion system, they feel so empty now.
What’s worse is that a lot of the reactions, emotions and interactions in sims4 are only possible if you buy kits and expansion packs; At least in sims2 they were just all automatically in the base game 🤦♀️
This is a wonderful video, thank you for making it. I still play ts2. I tried ts3 and ts4 when they first came out, but I played them each for only 1 day, I was so disappointed right away. I expected them to be better than ts2, but they totally were not. I went straight back to ts2 and didn't look back. I'm so grateful the people who worked on ts2 did such an amazing job.
Love how the sim from sims 4 starts clapping then stomps with an angry face before going right back to smiling. I hate the constant smiling. Most people have a resting face. No one goes around just standing around with a smile for no reason.
Can we talk about the fact that we have to sit there and earn extra traits instead of being able to get five off the rip like in Sims 3. Or even have zodiac signs in Sims 2. And how the hell do we have to get 40 different packs to get body piercings but yet none of them come with lip piercings yeah you get that off the rip with Sims 2
The animations don't have as much emotion because in The Sims 4 they have those feelings where the emotion they are feeling and a description are written. so you don't see much but you read.
Would be great if emotions actually had an impact, but everything is overpowered by positive emotions, so this doesn't even work... Also, I play games to see & experience actual gameplay, not for reading endless descriptions...If I wanted to read, I'd rather take a book.
Muitas pessoas dizem que geralmente quem gosta mais do the sims 2 é pelo fato da nostalgia mas eu conheci o the sims 4 primeiro mas quando conheci o dois desinstalei o 4 e fiquei só com o dois mesmo, porque convenhamos ele é muito superior e o meu favorito ❤
@@LianeCarinaNot difficult at all. Only needs 3 patches. The 4 gb one, the shadow fix one and the graphic rules to make it play. Any sims 2 website will help you, and after 19 years there's still a ton of them.
@@LianeCarina4 gb helps it run on new powerful computers. Shadow fix removes the strange black boxes. Graphics fix heps it to run with new computers better resolutions and your done.

@@Diovanlestat thanks 🙏 but this sounds really difficult and complicated for me haha😅 and I only have a normal laptop 💻 now I love the sims 2 but with all this work I’ll just play sims 3 and 4 😊 I’m not so smart with this stuff🤣
Also, alot of TS4's Delayed Reactions are both...because the Broadcaster is freaking SLOW. but also doubly so with Death broadcasters. I Personally took it on myself to make death broadcasters much faster. sims often start reacting before the sim has stopped the animation, though mind you I Still prefer the older games
i just love it, it shows how much care and attention went into the making of the sims 2, compared to how much of a mess the sims 4 is, even with its 82 packs its gameplay with sims 4 wont ever outshine how the gameplay in the sims 2 is, yes the sims 2 has its problems well mostly technical ones, but mods can help with that
So far Sims 2 will always be my favorite game they had better emotion and was more entertaining than Sims 4 the Sims on 4 are just little robots waiting for instructions on what to do next, Sims 2 they were more entertaining because they would do more things on their own and I have to say I love it when they look at the camera and complain because you make them do something they do not want to do like cleaning.
EA most definitely gave us an u finished game back in 2014. There's no other explanation to the lack of life in comparison to the sims 2. With all the missing details and pools and half baked animations in the sims 4 it's like right in our face that the game was never finished or in a final state of production. They just needed to release the game already because they needed their investments back so they released it as it was and what it was was not done. This is my only viewpoint on the matter because how could actual game developers not see the issues when I know nothing about a video games make up and can see that this is just an incomplete game.
S4 Sims just feel so shallow. Like, I can see that they're mad, but what are they mad about? How will it affect their future? Something about it is so uncanny.
It feels like there's 3 main issues: 1. Forced Reactions to certain things. That clapping in the cheating thing was forced, then she actually reacted. 2. Late Reactions + No Staying Power. Appearntly they have to finish what they're currently doing, even if it's literally moving or reacting to another thing before actually reacting proper. Then it's like that thing barely had any effect at all on them. 3. Sims don't look. This doesn't sound like much, but this *seriously* bogged it down. Take reacting to sim in shower. Not only can you see 2 in spades, but the kid didn't even look at the shower. It makes it hard to parse their emotions without *any* effort to make them at least look in that general direction.
@@Sitycims i love Sims 4 but Ur videos are so creative and I enjoy watching them. I think u are good RUclipsr because you can convince ppl who have different opinions.
As an autistic person, I find Sims2 sims the easiest to understand because they emote so much with their whole bodies as well as speech and facial expressions.
Dude this perfectly encapsulates everything I hate about The Sims 4. it feels like the world was made for you to watch and only you, characters live together but dont seem to care to what happens around them or about other characters. I always enjoyed observing how the sims in The Sims 2 react to the weather, what other sims do, to life events, it felt a world lived in, it's a world made for them where you're just a part of it not the sole reason why all of it exists, they may acknowledge your presence sometimes but thats just it, it makes you feel as if you werent there watching they would still live their lives, go to school, spend time with their families and get lost in their own shenanigans.
@@LianeCarina I think I'm in the same boat, my Asus laptop is a gaming one so it handles TS4 pretty smoothly but it's getting old (2016) so I think I'd definitely need a new one for Inzoi
i assume its because in the sims 2 emotions are based on the action while in the sims 4 actions are based on emotions. sounds dumb but let me explain, in sims 2 your sim only gets angry at specific events like beeing cheeted on, noticing someone they hate or seeing an object they repeatedly failed to repair (yes i had one sim who was activly mad at a stereo he got electrocuted from 3 sepret times, he only got mad while the object was broken) in the sims 4 on the other hand emotions are basicly flags and what your sim does is based on whatever emotion is currently the strongest. in normal gameplay the "happy" mood is usually dominating, wich is why its always overritten by some other positive emotions, but the negative ones barely stand a chance. so even something like beeing cheeted on wich schould give a huge negative moodlet barely puts a dent into their overall emotion and they continiu to be happy/flirty/energised ect.
the Happy emotion is the default emotion for the sims, that's the reason why they look so stupid and goofy.. the Fine emotion should have been the default emotion for sims.
sims 4 is me after my whole family died in a fire but suddently the energy drink kicks in and i do pushups and think about jogging while smiling the rest of the day
I actually prefer TS3's reactions to bladder failure, how most sims are concerned for the sim who is having a accident, compared to the animations displayed in TS2, and the Lack of animations in 4, also you do realise that Trisha Traveller was smiling in TS4 because she had Gas N Giggles....forcing her to laugh, it's a Get to Work Illness. I can tell
It seems like Ea expected us to control every step of each sim to make it more believable, the only way it could have some realism is when I decided to turn off "full autonomy" in the settings, so at least I can't be bothered by stupid and nonsense attitudes by my sims.
The sims 4 be like: a sim witnessed a literal tragedy but they feel inspired/happy bc the room is well decorated
Crazy that the 2nd game has better emotions when Sims 4 was literally advertised as having THE MOST complex emotions in the entire series.

If you put 2 on the right, it would look like the sequel. Even graphics wise it looks better than 4.
Even their hair has more emotion
What’s worse is that a lot of the reactions, emotions and interactions in sims4 are only possible if you buy kits and expansion packs; At least in sims2 they were just all automatically in the base game 🤦♀️
This is a wonderful video, thank you for making it. I still play ts2. I tried ts3 and ts4 when they first came out, but I played them each for only 1 day, I was so disappointed right away. I expected them to be better than ts2, but they totally were not. I went straight back to ts2 and didn't look back. I'm so grateful the people who worked on ts2 did such an amazing job.
Love how the sim from sims 4 starts clapping then stomps with an angry face before going right back to smiling. I hate the constant smiling. Most people have a resting face. No one goes around just standing around with a smile for no reason.
1:19 him just swinging after divorce😂
Just looking at the title I already knew that without a doubt!
0:32 bro was happy at first then realized "wait a second"
XD
A Sims 2 character smelling their own fart and having a giggle about it is so real.
Can we talk about the fact that we have to sit there and earn extra traits instead of being able to get five off the rip like in Sims 3. Or even have zodiac signs in Sims 2. And how the hell do we have to get 40 different packs to get body piercings but yet none of them come with lip piercings yeah you get that off the rip with Sims 2
The animations don't have as much emotion because in The Sims 4 they have those feelings where the emotion they are feeling and a description are written. so you don't see much but you read.
Would be great if emotions actually had an impact, but everything is overpowered by positive emotions, so this doesn't even work...
Also, I play games to see & experience actual gameplay, not for reading endless descriptions...If I wanted to read, I'd rather take a book.
@Sitycims Exactly. Are we reading, looking at a mood ring or enjoying the creation of an experience for both ourselves AND our creation?
@@Sitycims
All of it includes reading especially if you want to do things like travel to Sylvan glade or the tunnels in the werewolf place.
Man why the fuck sims 4 looks like they all always high?
they are all in drugs xd
Like many others say, sims 4 is broken. Some may even say dead.
They shot themselves in the foot, honestly.
At the cheating in the sims 4 she was like uhuul she finally got someone, waiiit is my husband 👀😡😤
Muitas pessoas dizem que geralmente quem gosta mais do the sims 2 é pelo fato da nostalgia mas eu conheci o the sims 4 primeiro mas quando conheci o dois desinstalei o 4 e fiquei só com o dois mesmo, porque convenhamos ele é muito superior e o meu favorito ❤
Os três primeiros jogos quando eu instalei eu joguei por meses sem enjoar, enquanto o 4 toda vez que eu instalo eu jogo por 1 semana e já enjôo
The only things I like about the sims 4 is the automatic bed making and washing their hands after using the bathroom.
Mary Sue cheering for her cheating husband made my day :D
Sims 2 is better than, sims 3, 4 and inzoi. Don't care what anyone says.
Ok? Lmao
Just nostalgic.
@@morryalone9082 no nostalgia, I only started playing sims 2, 3 months ago, after playing sims 4, for 6 years. And sims 2 wins in terms of gameplay.
once a sims 2 girl, always a sims 2 girl. first time i played was like 15 years ago and i still play from time to time.
sims 4 is too clean for me
but isn’t it really difficult to play still? I tried but I couldn’t even make it work😮💨
@@LianeCarinaNot difficult at all. Only needs 3 patches. The 4 gb one, the shadow fix one and the graphic rules to make it play. Any sims 2 website will help you, and after 19 years there's still a ton of them.
@@LianeCarina4 gb helps it run on new powerful computers. Shadow fix removes the strange black boxes. Graphics fix heps it to run with new computers better resolutions and your done. There are additional mods that you can install like Hatch's sliders that fix selectors in body shop being misaligned.
@@Diovanlestat thanks 🙏 but this sounds really difficult and complicated for me haha😅 and I only have a normal laptop 💻 now I love the sims 2 but with all this work I’ll just play sims 3 and 4 😊 I’m not so smart with this stuff🤣
The sims four sims just stand there like deer in the headlights.
Also, alot of TS4's Delayed Reactions are both...because the Broadcaster is freaking SLOW. but also doubly so with Death broadcasters. I Personally took it on myself to make death broadcasters much faster. sims often start reacting before the sim has stopped the animation, though mind you I Still prefer the older games
i just love it, it shows how much care and attention went into the making of the sims 2, compared to how much of a mess the sims 4 is, even with its 82 packs its gameplay with sims 4 wont ever outshine how the gameplay in the sims 2 is, yes the sims 2 has its problems well mostly technical ones, but mods can help with that
lol that is pretty sad. The more advance is less advance.
So far Sims 2 will always be my favorite game they had better emotion and was more entertaining than Sims 4 the Sims on 4 are just little robots waiting for instructions on what to do next, Sims 2 they were more entertaining because they would do more things on their own and I have to say I love it when they look at the camera and complain because you make them do something they do not want to do like cleaning.
Oh my gosh the son running upstairs to cry after seeing his parents fight. That's such a great realistic touch.
Getting mad that they sold the tv when you have no money for food 😭
The Sims 4 is too damn positive to the point the characters become dumb.
EA most definitely gave us an u finished game back in 2014. There's no other explanation to the lack of life in comparison to the sims 2. With all the missing details and pools and half baked animations in the sims 4 it's like right in our face that the game was never finished or in a final state of production. They just needed to release the game already because they needed their investments back so they released it as it was and what it was was not done. This is my only viewpoint on the matter because how could actual game developers not see the issues when I know nothing about a video games make up and can see that this is just an incomplete game.
S4 Sims just feel so shallow. Like, I can see that they're mad, but what are they mad about? How will it affect their future? Something about it is so uncanny.
That laugh after funeral or death literally a psycho 😂 6:55
Sims 2 is king !
Please people, boycott EA sims community. Trust me they will be automatically forced to make a less buggy and good sims game in the future.
It feels like there's 3 main issues:
1. Forced Reactions to certain things. That clapping in the cheating thing was forced, then she actually reacted.
2. Late Reactions + No Staying Power. Appearntly they have to finish what they're currently doing, even if it's literally moving or reacting to another thing before actually reacting proper. Then it's like that thing barely had any effect at all on them.
3. Sims don't look. This doesn't sound like much, but this *seriously* bogged it down. Take reacting to sim in shower. Not only can you see 2 in spades, but the kid didn't even look at the shower. It makes it hard to parse their emotions without *any* effort to make them at least look in that general direction.
I missed Ur videos sitycims....I'm glad u back
Thank you! Yeah got lowkey burnt out by the last video 💀💀
@@Sitycims i love Sims 4 but Ur videos are so creative and I enjoy watching them. I think u are good RUclipsr because you can convince ppl who have different opinions.
I support the sims 2... Every reaction is spectacular.
Swinging on a swing while your family has a mental breakdown 😂
Man the sims 4 is so pathetic
When I get a new computer, I will definitely download sims 2 or 3
Sims 2 torches sims 4 for 11 minutes straight
As an autistic person, I find Sims2 sims the easiest to understand because they emote so much with their whole bodies as well as speech and facial expressions.
Dude this perfectly encapsulates everything I hate about The Sims 4. it feels like the world was made for you to watch and only you, characters live together but dont seem to care to what happens around them or about other characters. I always enjoyed observing how the sims in The Sims 2 react to the weather, what other sims do, to life events, it felt a world lived in, it's a world made for them where you're just a part of it not the sole reason why all of it exists, they may acknowledge your presence sometimes but thats just it, it makes you feel as if you werent there watching they would still live their lives, go to school, spend time with their families and get lost in their own shenanigans.
The Sims 2's characters are alive, while The Sims 4's ones are just dolls. 😢
I think there will be comparisons of The Sims 2 vs InZOI soon
I think sims 2 wins🤩 and I don’t like “inzoi”😒
@@LianeCarina then it will be a surprise :)
I don't even know if my PC can handle it/has enough storage left for it 💀
@@Sitycims I play sims on laptop now so I’m 100% sure I can not😹
@@LianeCarina I think I'm in the same boat, my Asus laptop is a gaming one so it handles TS4 pretty smoothly but it's getting old (2016) so I think I'd definitely need a new one for Inzoi
All these because Sims 4 originally have all the sims to be controlled by online players. That's why we got these reactionless characters 🙁
i assume its because in the sims 2 emotions are based on the action while in the sims 4 actions are based on emotions.
sounds dumb but let me explain, in sims 2 your sim only gets angry at specific events like beeing cheeted on, noticing someone they hate or seeing an object they repeatedly failed to repair (yes i had one sim who was activly mad at a stereo he got electrocuted from 3 sepret times, he only got mad while the object was broken)
in the sims 4 on the other hand emotions are basicly flags and what your sim does is based on whatever emotion is currently the strongest.
in normal gameplay the "happy" mood is usually dominating, wich is why its always overritten by some other positive emotions, but the negative ones barely stand a chance. so even something like beeing cheeted on wich schould give a huge negative moodlet barely puts a dent into their overall emotion and they continiu to be happy/flirty/energised ect.
Stereo rage is hilarious bro
Would explain why all the sims in 4 smile so much like it's the Trueman show or something
Are there any mods that improve reactions in sims 4? This is ridiculous 😭
10:30 when you deleted the TV they almost escaped the matrix because of the stress😂
TS2>>>
the Happy emotion is the default emotion for the sims, that's the reason why they look so stupid and goofy.. the Fine emotion should have been the default emotion for sims.
I find it interesting that Don Lothario didn’t slap Dina when he caught her “cheating”, but he reacted like shy?
sims 4 is me after my whole family died in a fire but suddently the energy drink kicks in and i do pushups and think about jogging while smiling the rest of the day
I actually prefer TS3's reactions to bladder failure, how most sims are concerned for the sim who is having a accident, compared to the animations displayed in TS2, and the Lack of animations in 4, also you do realise that Trisha Traveller was smiling in TS4 because she had Gas N Giggles....forcing her to laugh, it's a Get to Work Illness. I can tell
Sims 4 is so fake
Sims 2 is way superior to Sims 4. Sims 4 has the most lazy and obnoxious animations too.
Make sure to zip the sims 4 pants up while your at it
Creo que el problema de los sims 4 es que tienen muchas emociones diferentes a la vez. En los sims 2 sólo tienen una, no hay variación.
7:00 bro that laugh is diabolical
The Sims 4 has really bad animations while the animations in the Sims 2 are still the best in the series.
It seems like Ea expected us to control every step of each sim to make it more believable, the only way it could have some realism is when I decided to turn off "full autonomy" in the settings, so at least I can't be bothered by stupid and nonsense attitudes by my sims.
and then full autonomy breaks a lot of normal game functions so we just can't win 😭
