The sims don’t really build anything on their own. I play the Sims 2, because it’s got decades of mods available at this point. The newer games don’t really seem worth it - the Sims 4 is very much focused on parcelling our everything as DLC.

Basically, I have a bunch of STALKER and Fallout 3 assets ported into the game and use them to decorate my little post apocalyptic setting. I try to destroy/rebuild in a way that looks sorta organic - having them squat in abandoned bowling alleys and the like.

Imho the Sims 2 is worth getting into. We’ve reached the point in the nostalgia cycle where the ridiculous early 00’s clothing is endearing. It’s a really open ended story telling tool, and with modding you can do things like historical simulations or weird sim cults or prisons… but even just playing the vanilla game has a lot of charm of its own.

The Sims 2 is 100% the best of the series, yeah. At this point you can basically mod the game to look however you want, and mod it to play as you want, there's insane amounts of mods and content available. There's custom options for the UI, you can even get a fixed version for the launcher. I've been playing it for around 20 years now, and last I played "like you're supposed to" was like 18 years ago lmao.
