I was wondering if you were going to include the The Sims 2 in the nostalgia series. I was happy to see the content. I am this happy after a long time. I saw the game for the first time on my girl cousins' computers. They got married and now have children but this game still moves me. It was great to see people we knew inside the computer. Being able to do things that we cannot do in real life. My girlfriend was a fan of this when I started college. I miss her. I miss the rainy afternoons of my childhood. I have never seen the sun as red as it was when I was a child. I still listen to Simlish songs and I'm still an emotional person.

Omg it did feel like this!!!! You brought the memories back, so chill, I was a depressive sad teenager back in 2004, but the sims 2 took me to that happy place and you really revived it!!!! Even the installing screens or going to the sims website made me so happy, im no longer depressive but watching this feels so good, the sims 2 was my friend, Nina, my sim self, our daughter and son, Orlando centowski, so many good memories, if the definition of depression for a 2000s teen was the hoax of happiness playing the sims 2, then I guess I lived that and I’m thankful, so many years I was guilty for having “wasted” my youth on a computer but now I feel proud and thankful of being a teen in the 2000s and the sims 2, now i occasionally play sims 4 and it’s just as good but that feeling the sims 2 gave you was the best thing, it gave me hope, rush home after middle school to play this game, it gave me hope, and a sensation that’s hardly equated

Sim nostalgia right here. I like this game alot. Even though Sims 3 was typically the best version, the story modes of Sims 1 and 2 were great on PS2. For PC these games has always been fun things to do besides all the other games out there. It's a niche game about simulating a real person inside of a home, it's quite hilarious but at the same time it does bring alot of joy when the fire department comes or when the thief appears to steal your stuff. That's kind of the best parts about this game.

Sims 2 was for you when you were younger. Sims 3 was for your girlfriend when you were older. Well, at least that's how it was for me, lol. When Sims 3 came out, I wasn't interested in playing dolls anymore, even though I could appreciate how the game had improved

Thank you for making this video. I have such fond memories of playing this game while I was in my room, in a calm sunny day of summer. I'm so glad I could experience those beautiful moments back then, this video made me remember those days of downloading a cracked version of The Sims 2 on torrent while leaving the computer on all night and then installing the pirated game with a sense of joy, like if you just fooled an entired company and getting the game for free. Surprisingly, I first tried this game because my school bully lent it to me. Sounds weird, but it's true. I considered him my friend, because he was my neighbour and we were bored and just wanted to play. But I was so young and Innocent I did not understand he was bullying me, he had family problems. I think his dad beated his mom. Good thing is, there was still a kid in that young guy, and besides all the emotional pain he could have cause me, he also introduced me to this game, which I appreciate.
