The Sims 2: 50 MORE FUN LITTLE DETAILS not in Sims 3 & Sims 4

Today I'm going to show 50 more little details in Sims 2 that makes the game livelier but aren't implemented in Sims 3 and 4.

Gotta do some more clarifications again: - Sims 4 do have split screens in the console games, but the games will always use 4-player splitscreen regardless of the player's number. - I'm gonna admit I got the "messy eating" wrong because you can eat messily as a slob sim in Sims 3 (not Sims 4 glutton eating, it's different than sloppy/slob) - EDIT: Also admitting about the barista bar tending to be wrong because Sims 4 sims can tend on barista bar if there's no one tending, though they won't be paid hourly like in the video - Yes, some of the features here are also in The Sims 1, but this video is titled "Sims 2 Details not in *Sims 3 and 4* ", remember? - Some of you said toddlers can throw up as well when you play with them in Sims 3, but I can't seem to reproduce them in the game after doing it several times. Can you tell how do you do it?

[@loophole1170]

OMG Please do Sims 3!!!!!

[@TheSimsTutorialsEg]

Toddlers can throw up in The Sims 3? Never seen it either. Though the last one does remind me that sims in The Sims 4 can tend barista bars (from Get Together expansion pack) if there's no barista tending it. It's an easily forgettable feature (since not often you get a chance to tend a barista bar unless you put it in other places).

[@weirdreportt]

These little details are the reasons why Sims 2 felt more like a "Sims" game than Sims 4. I like the new features and all don't get me wrong, however Sims 4 seems like it was a spinoff. They added emotion system yet it felt hollow. Perhaps it was just the lack of "realism" that makes it off.

[@Carmnprobably]

xyz_ The reason why I said sims 2-3 was better than sims 4 was because sims 4 does have very good graphics but the gameplay tends to get boring. And the sims 4 has a loading screen for almost everything. I wish the sims 4 was open world like the sims 3, and had more details. Also I was very pissed with the college expansion pack for the sims 4, the expansion pack trailer makes it look like you can do a lot. But in reality there’s only like 3 buildings you can actually go to (depending what college you pick) In sims 3 you had a backpack every time you went to classes, and on top of that you can actually see your sims in classes, and you can make them do stuff like take notes, nap..etc. You’re also in an actual dorm room that has two floors, and you can chose a frat house or sorority house. ALSO SIMS 3 HAD FLIPPING CARSSS!! There’s so much stuff that the sims 3 had that sims 4 doesn’t. Like this doesn’t even scratch the surface of how much stuff sims 3 has, like bruh. Edit: (Sorry about my little rant 😅)

[@-CrimsoN-]

The issue is that The Sims 4 was rushed and changed midway through. The Sims 4 was originally going to be an online game similar to The Sims Online, but was changed to a singleplayer game midway through development. So what we got was a lackluster Sims game at release. Also, that’s the reason why everything is instanced and they did away with the open world (easier for a potentially online game). My hope is that EA moves on from the Sims 4 and just starts development on The Sims 5 and make it a singleplayer experience from the ground up. Go back to just using expansion packs and stuff packs and fill them with content worth buying (this likely won’t happen) and build off everything that made The Sims 2 and 3 good. Also, bring back the weird Sims 2 style Maxis humor (without Will Wright, that’s unlikely to happen). Sims 4 just feels so un-Sims like with all the real world and meme references.

Yeah, although I always make sure to go buy the clothing before the Sims age up because otherwise they get a randomly generated outfit and like 9 times out of 10 it's the weirdest, most ridiculous-looking thing

[@marieleroy1645]

Also, in sims 2, every sim records the eye and hair color that they inherit from both mom and dad. They use only one for themselves, but the other is stored as 'recessive'. When that sim eventually procreates with another sim, either the dominant or the recessive gene will be used for any resulting baby. Thus, a sim might get hair and eye color from a grandparent, even though neither mommy, nor daddy shows that color. For example: John has black hair, but a recessive red gene. Jane has blond hair, and also a recessive red gene. When their baby Tina is born, the game takes one hair color from mom, and one from dad. Dad's black hair has a bigger chance to show up, because it *is* dominant, but little Tina might still end up blonde or ginger. But whatever color she gets for herself, Tina will also carry the color that she got from the other parent. whereas in sims 3 and 4 there are no such thing as dominant and recessive genes. Plus, they can't inherits their ancestors features unlike sims 2.

[@missline95]

Yesss,. That shit is so important! Makes it so so much more realistic.. You cant fuck with genes😛

Actually sims 3’s base game is quite whole unless you just want a pack to have it, sunset valley is a beautiful town, the townies are great and have good stories, They careers are great and get more interactive, the lots are also amazing and all of the little things you can do. But the thing is sims 2 does get bland without any packs if you play it all day every day, because you want apartments and plantsims and college. But the packs are all terribly over priced I like the game but in my own opinion take away all of sims 3 bugs and compare the games with all packs and without sims 3 is better 🤷‍♀️

When Sims die, other Sims will react according to their relationship with that sim: if they didn't like them, they will laugh while grim reaps their soul. Also Sims can plead for their loved one and have a chance of winning them back! Also at a Sims grave, they will mourn accordingly to their relationship with that sim: some include: crying, shrugging, shaking their head, looking down in sadness, etc. If they had a bad relationship, they can kick the grave

I sat there watching open-mouthed ... was I really seeing that?

When a sim dies, their cremation urn is placed in the house. If another sim on the lot is really unhappy with their life, they can get so angry that they'll smash the urn and break it to pieces, even if it was their family member. It was kind of a scary and sad thing to witness, actually.

[@auzzpanda3497]

Another detail might be that dogs could lift themselves into the “seat windows” from mansion and garden stuff to look outside and bark And also teens could sneak out with friends at midnight and they could or could not be caught by their parents. The friend would go and pick them up in a car that’s quality depended on how rich the friend was Hmm sort of a strange one but unlike the sims 3 and 4 where all teenage animations are copied off of the adult ones, in sims 2 , teens “romantic hug “ was different to adult one and same goes for the “make out “ in the hot tub Growing up animations would be different depending on whether they grew up well or badly Oh I guess the whole memory system is also worth mentioning xd Parents could drive their kids to school and teens could drive themselves Oh also sims having their own fears based on their aspirations and tons of stuff was unique to sims 2 And so was stocking the fridge ! You would have to order groceries after a while and/or go shopping for them I’m not 100% sure but I think that having a rug in front of a lot chimney could cause a fire lol Sims 2 (holiday stuff) also had Santa Claus lol it was pretty hard to get him to come but you basically had to leave out Santa cookies and a few other things and he would leave you a present under the Christmas tree Oooh and there was a hidden “dancing skill” (which I guess is in sims 3 late night with the club dancing) but at least in vanilla sims 2, the more your sim dances , the better they’d get , they would eventually start spinning etc. They would go unlocking animations I’m not sure about sims 1 but career rewards were unique to sims 2 I think ? And unlike sims 3 , the lifetime aspiration points were usable objects that could be deadly if you used them without having your aspiration high (for example smart milk or the thing that would make ur needs go up) Depending on the sims aspiration they could unlock different perks (associated to that aspiration) I guess the unique mental breakdowns lol Oh and how about the different options you would get when you went to work ? Where if you picked wrong you could get fired and stuff In sims 3 and 4 you never have to “greet” first unlike sims 2 , and they would greet someone depending on how much they liked them , but since relationships weren’t always mutual , one of them could like the other and greet them happily whilst the other could hate them and give them a “hmph” for example Oh another good one would be that they would have different poses for their portraits , whereas sims 3 is all the same and sims 4 I guess just depends on the current emotion which in the end is all the same , as well as that when you would log into the household , the poses between the sims would depend on their relationships Parties could be broken up by cops I gotta say the fact that every age had their own walking style was so simple yet necessary Having a bad date could result in a bag of poo lit on fire at your doorstep lol Oh what about the “environment “ need ? That was only in sims 2 though I guess it was still there in the other actually but as buffs Sometimes the game would make sure your sim got punished for doing something like getting caught cheating by speeding up the animation that they were doing in order to get slapped Also gossip was a pretty strong tool in the sense that if , say , someone was getting cheated on and that persons sister catches them , they would not only lose relationship with the person cheating but also if you made them “gossip” to the person getting cheated on , they would find out The amount of candles on birthday cakes were according to the age Also maids were the only ones capable of cleaning puddles under an object And the fact that acquainted sims would always wave and say something whilst having that sim appear in their thought bubble whenever they walked into a room

@NS I I'm partly in agreement with you there. Graphically, the best one was S3 Seasons, but I liked the mechanics of the season changes more in S2 - I think they did it a lot better and more realistically. In S3, the weather and temperature will take a sudden change literally overnight when the season changes, as apposed to the more realistic gradual change you get in S2. I made one of my S2 neighbourhoods as a mountain/alpine village and it was winter for three out of the four seasons, the other being summer. I recall as it changed back to winter, it was still pretty hot for a good four days as the temperature slowly got colder. In S3, as summer changes to autumn, they're pulling on their outdoor clothes by the end of the first day. So yeah, S2 Seasons is for me, the best seasons pack for that reason, but it's not as aesthetically pleasing as the S3 one and the S4 seasons is ... well ... urrgh!

[@FerDeLance06]

Because it came off the back of Sims 1 and it was still being made by Maxis. They put in a lot more care and attention to detail before they released it and they took the same care with their expansions. That all changed when EA took over; all the care went out the window, they just threw their packs together, got them out onto the shelves and couldn't care less if they didn't work. Their final S2 pack - Apartment Life - was bugged to the hilt. They didn't fix it, there were no patches released, they didn't care about it; Sims 3 was about to get released and all they cared about was how much money they were going to make from that. It was modders that fixed Apartment Life, EA had nothing to do with it - they released it broken and washed their hands of it. They did the same with Island Paradise for Sims 3; Sims 4 was on the horizon and they weren't going to spend anything fixing their broken product. They'll do the same with the final S4 packs. Actually, from what I hear, they've been doing it already.

These lists are exactly why everyone says Sims 2 was the best game. As Sims 4 proves, the little details (or lack thereof) are all that stands between your sims feeling real and engaging ... and your sims being boring lifeless robots who all act exactly the same. I actually reinstalled 2 a few weeks ago, to see whether it really was as good as people said, and although the graphics and build mode were a bit painful (the only things 4 has actually improved on), I was surprised and charmed by my sims in ways that I'd forgotten I could be! Clicking back onto my sim to find out why it was taking so long for him to eat, only to find that he'd fallen asleep face first in his cereal genuinely surprised me, and cracked me up! Seeing my sims staring out the window by himself, watching them interact with each other, all these little details are what give the sims life and make them seem like real people! I just wish more people would stop buying the ridiculous, empty expansion and stuff packs so that EA has to actually make some changes.

In Sims 2 the windows fog in the cold. I also feel the way they "over did" the sound of seasons e.i. wind blowing in winter, actually made you want to light the fireplace! I still play it 💖

[@NS-ku1kf]

Sims 3 too

[@revis--]

sims 3 has both foggy windows and wind howling in the winter in Seasons pack

[@joandsarah77]

When you open the freezer to buy groceries the glass fogs for awhile.

[@westworld237]

The sims 4 does these things too

[@lynareantoinette]

I play all three games. It’s just the way S2 does it that I love! I didn’t play much S3 but liked the ice off the roof detail.

This is why Sims 2 felt so much more magical and endearing

[@Celrrose]

I have some: When you get a money plant and have service people or any other sims on your lot, they will commonly steal the money from the plant sneakily. When you go on a date and it goes well, there's a very common chance that the sim will leave a bouquet of flowers, a single flower or a card at your Sims door with a cute note attached, but if it goes bad theres a chance they will leave a flaming bag of poop at your door. If a sim is furious with you, they might steal your newspaper in the mornings and knockover your trashcan at night, usually every night they do this!

[@davidkonevky7372]

They can also kick your grave or throw your ashes

[@picao2338]

hahaha the last happened me always

[@LucyAdroit]

Yes, I remember ALL of these

[@PaperVisage]

I used to have one that would just sneak up in the early hours of the morning , knock it down and then run away with that evil smirk LOL always cracked me up!

[@PTsR]

Little detail: sim can snap when walking

[@bestofsmall]

and whistle!

[@russell6clacks]

And do the eyyyyyyyy finger guns

[@iheartart0827]

And clap too

[@iheartart0827]

Another little detail: when you flush the toilet in Sims 2, the water actually spins. EDIT: was not expecting to get 1K likes 😂😂

[@EliseKessels]

No way

[@chynagraham2432]

WHAT!

[@daynemacalalad7477]

NANI?!

[@karenfingerman8168]

What?! I never noticed

[@klaudiasasanka5371]

@All and Nothing yes! It totally spins. Checked it!

[@nicolecruickshank7501]

In Sims 2 you could scan a room and it would light up the person your Sim was most attracted to. That was way cool. If you liked them too, get 'em together! In Sims 3 you had the hearts come up and then there would be a moodlet when they were nearby. You couldn't always tell where the attraction moodlet was coming from but it wasn't hard to figure out after a while. Sims 4 doesn't appear to have any type of system like that, or if it's there I'm missing it. You'd think if Sims liked each other they'd get the Flirty emotion or something, but nope, that just seems to happen randomly or not at all!....

[@OceanHedgehog]

I wish they would bring back the expanded romantic options of different kisses and flirt interactions. Also, regarding Number 70, even back in the early 2000's, Maxis and EA knew that a minimum wage of $7.25 is too low!

[@kaidou8069]

Another fun little detail in the Sims 2 is that when its snowing and the penguin appears you can leave fish on the floor and the penguin will eat it. Penguins can also use the stairs, the first time I discovered this I was impressed.

[@JI04]

Yeah when it was snowing I was waiting the penguins to come because they were so cute and liked to pet them.

[@muszyniankaxxl]

Not only turns-on's and -off's have to do with either our sim will find someone attractive but also their zodiac sign and aspiration. There's whole article about it on the sims wiki on "Chemistry". Not sure how it works in the other the Sims games as TS2 is the only one I played.

[@veroniquehill9314]

I'm literally crying because I miss the Sims 2 so much, I wish my computer was still able to play it because I would never play Sims 4 again 😭

[@catdadsims7669]

the helicopter thing shocked the hell out of me when it happened, i just heard this loud whirling noise and it being a sims game i was obviously confused. then a dang helicopter showed up to pick up my sim (my sim married her, i didnt know she was that high up in the military career). one of the few times my jaw literally dropped

[@INeedYouToBreathe]

Didn't you ever watch that video when the game starts? There's a helicopter right there

[@catdadsims7669]

@@INeedYouToBreathe nope i have a mod that removes the intro both in sims 2 and 3. it annoys me

[@solosolo6644]

let's makes petition to maxis to tell them to put this amazing interaction in future (sims 5)

[@tildetjernberg8994]

Solo Solo yes!!

[@phillykano]

You forget EA owns sims

[@jenell3]

Philly Kano ok and your point is

[@Alexandra-xk3gu]

jenelle renee Not happening.

[@dijaadijaa]

plz make this a thing!

[@davidgunawan546]

Another few details about carpools. When you reach either the top of the Law Enforcement or the Natural Science career, you can literally fly to work!!! Also at the top of the Natural Science career, your uniform is a bit.... *ahem* revealing. Great work on your videos! I love how much effort you put trying to find these details

[@onlyabidoang]

Thank you so much for the kind words! Yep, I know that, but I kinda talked about it in my old Sims 2 easter eggs video. But I never knew that natural science career do that as well so thanks for letting me know

[@Nakia11798]

Cars in general are an improvement on sims 4 where your sim just disappears into the ether

[@Hestia23]

Aguest lmao I died

[@Jilly6667]

I also remember in carpools the parents could take the, kids, to school if they had a car! I seriously miss that in all other sim games

[@Bioletta7]

I'm currently playing Sims 4 and I want to cry. This is so much better. Thank you.
