    Gonna make some corrections here:
    -Baba Yaga is actually originating not only from Russian, but *Slavic* folklore. (And I admit to have pronounced "Baba Yaga" wrong in the video)
    -The Bella Goth sim that I used on 0:51 is actually the Bella Goth from Strangetown, not the missing one from Pleasantview. They both have a slightly different face structure.
    Thanks so much guys for pointing these out!

      From what I remember hearing back in the day, the pig actually has a bit of a story to it.
      Supposedly, back before the Pets expansion came out, the standard response Maxis had to "when are you adding dogs and cats?" inquiries was "when pigs fly". Then lo and behold, when Open for Business (the expack before Pets) came out, they added that floating inflatable pig easter egg.

    In sims 2, when a burglar is caught by the police, as soon as the police officer gives you 500 simoleons for helping out click the police car and you’ll have about 2 seconds to select “open rear door” in which you can free the burglar and gain a relationship!

    If more than one Sim in your family has a Social Bunny visiting them, the bunnies can see and communicate with eachother. There's 3 colors they can be, and how they get along depends on their color. Some combinations make them friendly, some make them enemies, and I believe blue and pink bunnies will become lovers.

    Here's a little secret I've never seen mentioned before and only seems to happen some of the time: if you cheat on Dina or Nina Caliente as Don Lothario, one or the other may storm to your house and slap you, basically finding out that you've been cheating. I think this is because, in 2, if you have multiple lovers that live on the same residential lot, there's a chance that one will tell the other, and your secret will be out!

There is a ghost pirate on board that if you talk to him, he may teach you a pirate song (my observation is that the song sounds like “A Pirate’s Life for Me” but please correct me if I’m wrong about that)

    Harvey's not as well known as some of the other stuff referenced in the game so not as many people might realize it's a reference. I thought it was pretty cool when I realized that though.

    Sims 4: Sims 2 But WACKY and WORSE

      Angled items? Do you mean when you rotate them? You can do that on Sims 2 as well, you just need to use some cheats. You can place objects off the grid as well.
      Angle cheat -> boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation [true/false]
      Off grid cheat -> boolProp snapObjectsToGrid [true/false]
      Sims 2 is one of the best games actually, bc it doesn't have a lot of bugs and it has a whole bunch of details. Sims 3 was innovative but it's an ok game imo. Sims 4 is... well, it lacks a lot of stuff that it's predecessors had (Sims 2 is far more interesting, and c'mon this game was made in the early 2000s). I honestly don't know what they're doing with this generation, they're probably just milking their own fan base at this point lol.

There were cars, complete life stages with their own unique experience, good graphics for it’s time, stable gameplay, deep experiences, best reationship/dating/hangout system, memories, wants and Fears, aspirarion meter, neighborhoods with their unique lore and history, dramma, EXTREMELLY smart sims with real personalities and preferences, good apartament system, a great business system, amazing college experience(really, going to university in sims 2 felt always so real and nostalgic with their 90’s vibe), smart functional pets and the BEST vacation/trips system, that really made you feel like you’re in vacation, and let’s not forget, a GREAT genetics/genes system. God, i wish they could do a sims 5 like this again. There are no flaws that i could point on sims 2.

    I don’t know if this was mentioned in another video, but like the piano name, the violin is based off an existing maker as well. In game it’s called Simavarius which is a direct reference to the famous Stradivarius violins which are sold for millions. It’s been a while since I’ve played sims again and now it just so happened that I’m into classical music now and I can’t believe things like those just flew over my head.

    This isn't really an Easter egg but it's kind of a secret that in The Sims 2 when parents are getting in an argument/fight and their kid catches them, the kid might run away from home
