What's the best Sims game, Holla Forums?

4 is the only one where the characters can look good enough, it also runs better than 3, but that probably has a lot to do with how limited it is and the lack of a real open world.
If 4 had the same mods as 3, I'd pick that former without even thinking about it, S3 characters look disgusting.

It's 2>3>1>4 you fagmaster.

I've been playing since 1, but I honestly think 2 was my least favorite.

Unpopular opinion: I enjoyed 4 more than 2, and 4 was terrible.

I don't know why. I just felt like 2 felt held back. It improved on so much shit but didn't really make any giant leaps, other than a 3D engine. Then you have the beginning of EA jewry with a billion full priced DLCs. When I played 3 I realized 2 felt like a beta, and 3 felt like the Sims game they always had in mind.


I hate 4 but I'd choose its Sim appearances any day. The one problem is customization in 4 is a hell of a lot more limited than 3. Yeah, they're ugly in 3, but at least you could tweak every single detail. Even more with mods. With 4 you've got good looking presets but very poor physical customization.

That pretty much sums it up. 4 has a well defined art style, specially for the character models, 3 was an attempt to make S2 characters look more real and the end result is awful.
I had some hopes for S4 mods, but I don't think the game was ever popular enough for people to waste their time into adding more customization, much less all the time and effort it would take to make a proper porn mod framework.
Some guy on fallenangel (or whatever it was called) forum said he was working on the porn mode for S4, but haven't had any news about it.

fuck. i want to play 3 again but three hour loading screens is not really what i want.
wat do? thinking of getting only the expansions i want, maybe this will fix it
what are the must have or just good ones?

Any premade female sims from fiction for Sims 3 without much CC I can DL and rape?

If anyone managed to fucking optimize and unbug 3, it would be the perfect sims game.

There really needs to be an open source sims clone, like with so many open-ended games, the main limiting factor is waiting for someone to hack the game apart to add desired content, and if bugs exist, hoping that the bugs get fixed by the company.
Sims3 is a nightmare when it comes to performance and bugs, and because the game is 32bit, it will never be capable of taking advantage of 64bit systems since EA rather pumped out a new game with less features and smeared plastic over all the textures.

We need a new Maxis.

From prior sims threads:
>quintessential expansions are Late Night, Into The Future, Generations, Seasons, and Pets if you're desperate

>loading times are shit, there is no avoiding this, but installing to an SSD can help

>you'll see 2000000000, just change the 2 to 4 and you're done

...

oh thanks for that.
gonna try the games4theworld version
