This although I always made one character which was me. If I liked a family's house I would take control of them put them all in a special room filled with like cookers and remove the door. Then after they would die my character would buy their house for cheap, keep their remains around the lot and use their ghosts as bodyguards.

Depends on what you mean by that: There are loads of ways as the Player to kill Sims. However, if you want a certain Sim to kill another Sim then you can't do that without mods. Moreover, even with mods it's just an illusion trick and other Sims won't react to it.

I always liked how the burglars in sims 2 got added to your telephone contacts so I just roleplayed as a vigilante
I invited them to hang out, used that item that lets you drain their stats and found new ways to kill them, the first time I did that was the most satisfying feeling I got from video games ever

Every sims game is good with expansions.

I was pretty pissed when I bought 3 and half of the fucking items were paywalled, though. That is some right bullshit. If I cared enough I would pirate it.

Switch 2 and 3 around depending on how many expansions that you want to install.
>>
>>340940060
Loved Vacation and Livin' large. All other expansions were kinda meh. I liked Hot date cause they added single beds.
>>
Do do Sims 3 or 4 show your sim at work? I know you can run a home business in 2 but I don't want to stare at an empty house for 8 hours (if playing a bachelor) when I have to travel to work.
>>
>>340936540
Sims 2 is easy as fuck, Sims 1 wasn't challenging or anything but at least you still had to maintain a schedule for your sims instead of just spending the first 2 weeks of your sims game getting 10 in everything and never sleeping again
>>
>>340941218

Is 4 that bad? I didn't play 3 much, I played the shit out of 1 and 2 and I don't feel 3 was bad, I just wasn't able to get into it. Even so I think I would have a hard time going back to 2 over the improvements of 3.

If it's a vanilla job, your sims just goes into a building.
If it's a self-employed / expansion career, you generally have to actually take your sim to go do something yourself.

Sims 3 is probably the best with ALL dlc, but its a major pain in the ass to pirate and install everything
Sims 2 has an easy all expansions included torrent and is a bit more stable. Sims 1 feels a bit barebones compared to 2, so probably play 2 over 1. Sims 3 has a HUGE amount of content with all the paid DLC though
Never played 4 so no opinions on that

Yes all of them included something great.
>House Party added an option to invite multiple sims at once

>Makin magic added gothic themed items.

But all of them were also disappointing at some point
>House Party lacked content
>Unleashed's pets were annoying as hell and required a family member slot.

ATTENTION EVERYONE

EA are incompetent fucks and The Sims 3 doesn't have a frame limiter. Most of the micro stutter and performance issues you suffer from are caused by your too powerful GPU rendering literally thousands of useless frames per second. Use a program to limit your FPS (30 is sufficient, but >muh 60) and you'll have a better time.

He was a kid when it happened and that was his way to deal with the loss of someone that was dear to him, perhaps his first death. He checks now and then due to sentimentality. There's nothing weird or creepy there.

If she wasn't his friend, it'd not be a loss to him.

The engine runs internally at 30 fps. If you go over this the game stutters. You need to limit to 30, 60 isn't an option unless you want to deal with the stutter. Just a shitty engine.

Don't buy it. You'll get jewed so hard you have no fucking idea. The mods work with the Piratebay collection, and it runs like Sims3.

If you really must support, buy Sims3 base and nothing else.

Pick a career and play it until you get to the top, and get a family so you don't run out of things to do and you have someone to play as when your guy dies.

Sims 3 has a shitload of stuff to do besides the rabbithole jobs, so there's always something new to do. Last time I played I owned a horse ranch. I have hundreds of hours in TS3 and I still haven't done all the stuff there is to do in that game.

Store items. I remember back when World Adventures came out, the game with two expansions and all the store items had more items than any sims ever (unmodded).
The asian store items were even better than the ones in the expansion itself...
>>
These games are boring as fuck now unless you do something weird with them.
I have started a Vampire dynasty and married my kids off to other pure bred vampires, in Sims 3 if you both your parents are vampires and the child is a vampire they learn things 100x faster than normal, my teens mastered guitar in seconds, basically every skill except fishing and gardening takes seconds.

My dynasty has gotten too big, neighborhood is too small to sustain them and I have ran out of pure bred vampires to bred with.
The patriatch of the family is Vlad III and his son Vlad IV is a mad scientist, in order to feed his family he has built friztel styled basements for cloned sims to be fed off of.

They live in box rooms with glass walls so they have no privacy, there is no lights, they get a shit kitchen, a toilet, a sink, a bookcase and a sleeping bag.
They basically live their short lives constantly depressed with red moodlets from various things wrong with the rooms, plus they have no showers.
They go stir crazy from not leaving the room and crave social attention that they welcome the vampire's bite because it is their only social interaction.
The only relief they get is when Vlad IV starts preforming experiments on them that eventually leads to their death.

But then the local necromancer steals their corpses and turns them into zombies for his basement.

I never understood the game because I fucking GAMED it, while my girlfriend fucking PLAYED it.

I'd deliberately set my sim to be lazy as fuck who'd never flush the toilet or make the bed or wash the dishes because I could fucking hire a maid to do that for me while I was at work. Just bullshit like that. I'd thinking nothing of making them bust balls maxing out their required skills and then just socialising on the phone to gain social, ignoring the family completely. I'd never brush my teeth or wash hands I'd just use the sonic shower and BING everything is fine. Why sleep? Why watch TV? All you need to do is turn on that aroma thing which restores FUN while touching a bug lantern to regenerate ENERGY and then take a half hour dip in the on suite jacuzzi and you got all your motives back for 1/10th of the time

Whereas she'd make all the beds, force her sims to brush teeth, wash hands, and socialise, she'd care about the meals they ate, how the house was set up, even change their clothes each day and worst yet - make sure they got time to hang out with friends at bars and shit in the "overworld" wasting fucking time.

So I guess males can't understand the Sims. Just like how females can't understand actual REAL video games. So that's all good.

Don't play fucking games like this. Sims are meant to make you happy through a social sim based on polygonal shapes and coding. I mean, any game can be played however you want but Maxis wanted to make these games to create something that was never accomplished before. Go and enjoy the sims. Be a happy kid again taking a shit in neighbors toilets. Become a thief and steal things in peoples homes. Wed all the girls in sims. Enjoy yourself man, you're not even happy playing a video game that means to escape from your failed life.
