reminiscing about the sims
share how you discovered the sims franchise & the very first sims game you played (e.g. ts2)
One day, my sister checked out the Sims 4 from the library on a whim. We didn’t expect much, because we were under the impression that it was pretty much just a Marriage And Baby simulator.
Then we created a little gremlin man that ran around clogging drains, implying mothers are llamas, and performing voodoo. We loved it. My mom bought me the PC version for Christmas and I’ve been simming ever since. My sister, not so much lmao
I tag @are-they-all-sims, @oswanily, @anewnewcrest, @fundiesimsfamily, and @meetthefundies! (feel free to ignore though lmao)
Anyone that sees this and wants to do it themselves can consider themselves tagged, too :)
in elementary school, a friend had ts1 and for whatever reason I thought it was so fun when I played it at her house that I got it too. then ts2 and ts3 but I fell off playing in high school. I actually didn’t return to the franchise until covid hit and I had way more free time than I knew what to do with and decided to try ts4.
aside from the sims I’m not a video game person, like I’m never interested enough in any game to pick it up again after I play it once. I think this game keeps me hooked because I truly love storytelling and the sims gives me the ability to do that
I’ll tag @our-little-kingdom, @fundielicious-simblr & @needleworkreve
omggg so, my oldest brother was a die hard fan of the sims + the sims 2 and talked me up on it that way, but i didn’t start playing until ts3 was out & i was able to check those out from the library (and also got some random packs as holiday/birthday presents).
tbh the community (for me, ts3 and early earlyyyy ts4 era youtubers, a.k.a. the icons and the blueprints + early days of sim twitter) is what keeps me locked tf in and coming back time after time.
i’ll tag @thefundiesims, @avtvmnsalad, and idk whoever tf want to
(also im planning on playing the banks tmmrw...maybe...)
