I have played The Sims 2 since it came out and I have never seen it this broken before.. The pictures is speaking for themselves. I playtested without mods or cc installed. (Bought the game on Steam, using Windows 10 on my high spec gaming PC)
The Curious household is the most broken thing I have ever seen..
More under the cut..
Rod Humble doesn't come with just one present. He comes with at least two, every sim day! You only get one PC, so he's arriving with empty boxes. He also gets stuck and teleport in the process!
The alien abduction is not working as it should in this particular family. Vidcund's abduction is not working as intended at all. The abduction cutscenes is severely bugged and doesn't actually abduct him. He can be abducted without the cutscene, but it's still kind of bugged. The abduction sound gets stuck forever in a loop. When Vidcund comes back, the UFO is bugged in the air and won't ever disappear. No pregnancy occurs. The birth of Pascal's alien baby cutscene is also broken.
I have different experiences with cooking/serving food. Sometimes it's working, sometimes it doesen't. The sims forgets the meal in the middle of making it. When using the stove, the food bugs out and disappears, while the sound from the stove continues. This happens mostly in the Curious family. The door to the oven gets stuck, when the animation bugs out.
I have also encontered a problem with the vacation reminder notification. When Lazo took a day off work the notification came as usual, but It didn't stop.. as you can see.
I have seen a lot of people having problems with crashing when they have made a family in CAS. I did not experience crashing but the loading screen just.. skipped. The family got saved to the family bin.
I have seen people having problems with the mirrors when changing appearance, but I personally haven't experienced it.. yet.
I tried the alien abduction in another neighbourhood and the cutscene and everything worked well.. Everything unless the birth of the alien baby, which was still bugged. I tried multiple births of "normal" sim babies and these where completely normal.
If you bought the game and have any problems, please report it. I have reported my experience with these bugs. According to SimsCommunity's website EA have made a statement:
"Sul Sul Simmers!
We recognize some fans are currently experiencing various issues with The Sims: Legacy Collection and The Sims 2: Legacy Collection. We are currently investigating these issues and hope to have more information on fixes soon.

ngl, this whole experience was actually kind of funny cause everything was such a mess.. I would wait to see if this get's fixed, before you buy!
