I feel this. I loved 1 and 2 growing up. Easily the most nostalgic games for me. 3 was pretty good but I didn’t get too far into it tbh. Spent a lot of time with 4 (pirated) and enjoyed it.
Fast-forward to a time where I no longer pirate games so I decided to play it through Xbox Game Pass with limited DLC and it was just bland. Felt like I was missing the “full game” and the price tag to own such a thing is out of this world. Last I checked if you want “everything” you’d be spending around $1k USD.
EA is disgusting.
It's still $400 to buy Sims 3 as well despite the game being over ten years old.
Wow, didn’t know that. Simply egregious.
I really miss playing Sims and Sims 2 growing up. That, and the random other Sims games, like Sims Theme Park. I loved those.
I do still play Sims 4 but MAN the amount of basic game content that is locked behind a million different DLCs is insane.
