I've not played the latest Sims games, but I'm sure like a lot of you I played and enjoyed the originals a lot back in the day. Much like CK2 last week I'm sure it's only free so they can tempt you into buying lots of expansions, but the base game itself looks alright. Anyone played this one enough to offer any insight?

I don't play games, but I recently tried to get this one going for my wife on steam. I ended up getting it to work, but not through steam. She really likes the game, even just the base model that's free.

I think there is also a lot of modding that's done, so you could put those in.

The issue I hit was that it also requires the EA app, and I got frustrated putting it on Linux so I just got a cracked version, which came with a ton of the DLC's. Like, some 74 of them and every expansion.

She says it's a lot of options to choose from, but works fine after some tweaking.
