    I can't believe my eyes are wet because of a game i used to play when i was a little girl! Sooo much memories... How i loved The Sims 1 and it's simplicity, although in that time it looked to me like something magical, a unique game where i could enter a beautiful, new world and play for hours and hours. After The Sims 1 i've played the rest of the series, but that feeling of pure happiness only the first one had given to me. Thank you for bringing me back so great memories of my childhood! :)

    I have been clinically depressed for months and right now I am on Prozac. Sadly it wasn't enough. I listen to LGR's videos over and over for therapeutic purposes. I have no idea how it helps me. All I know he can make a fortune just out of his voice. He is my savior. God bless you, Sir.

    One of my favorite additions to The Sims 3 is the ability to -sleep with- interact with pretty much ANYBODY, Townie and NPC alike, as apposed to the Sims1 where you couldn't even interact with half the NPCs and the ones you could only had one or two options depending on their function in the game.

    I remember the box for this expansion had a trailer for The Sims 2 and the most exciting thing in the world to me was the fact Sims could now sit on the floor. I was so happy about that. Also, the last few videos got oddly depressing as Duke's adventures failed more and more.

    I rewatched this entire series for the first time in a while this Summer, and had the idea of making a compilation of the funniest moments in the series and uploading it today to mark the occasion, but life's been busy so I haven't had the chance. Maybe I'll do it in the future though.

    The problem is that a lot of these expansions require some effort and grinding to get anywhere. Creativity to be a superstar, logic, and pets are a responsibility all on their own. These vids were great for a laugh, but only because I knew full well the way you'd be playing them disaster was inevitable :P Great memories though. The Sims 1 had a lot of charm.

    Have you taken even a quick glance at the *entire* rest of my channel? Or even the opening shots of most of my videos? Because you'd see the copious amounts of older and vintage computer games all over the place. My logo is a retro font and a vintage PC for a reason.
    Knowing this, why's it weird for me to look at a slightly older Sims game when I review old games every weekend?
    And refusing to play a game due to graphics is pitiful. Might try gaming for the gameplay sometime, it's awesome.

    @LGR  12 лет назад +1

    That's one of those games that loses its effect entirely if you're not the one playing it. It's a narrative that's very much driven by your own actions, and it's effective because YOU are the one changing (or are unable to change) the outcome on-the-fly. It's not a game so much as it is a piece of interactive fiction, so no, I won't be doing an LGR Plays video on it. There is a short write-up of my thoughts on it posted on my blog though.
