I love the Sims 3. . .an honest review from a veteran Simmer

[jamesabrown1]

I agree. If you don't want to buy stuff, don't buy it. I think we all got really spoiled with the EPs and SPs in Sims2, but I think that those are coming in 3, as well, and also the mods and CC are starting to show up all over. I do like a lot of the concepts in the game and I think they will expand into something really good over time.

Yeah, I'm missing the major expansion features. At least out of the expansions I had. Up to and including Seasons. The minoring gardening doesnt cut it with me. I'm talking weather and Plant Sims.

But, as I said multiple times, the lack of control to play as I see fit is driving me batty. I only recently got a mod that enables me to kill Sims when I want them dead, however I want them dead. Which is a blessing. Because 1. I'm noticing that Sims arent as combustible as they used to be. 2. If I want them back its as easy as ressurecting them with ambrosia. And I dont have to worry about losing them to the idiot feature of the game removing them itself should the neighborhood get "Too full". Yet, it keeps creating its own Sims which I have to grind into powder.

Dont get me wrong, I like the Sims 3. But, I wanna play it how I wanna play it. And that requires mods to fix certain aspects of it, nd certain annoyances in general. But I also would like the stuff from the Sims 2 to show back up in it as well cause that stuff was cool.
