If anyone is interested. This is The Sims 2 with DLC from an EA “giveaway” some years ago. Just installed this yesterday and still haven’t found any problems. No EA bullshit and all the DLC. https://github.com/voicemxil/TS2-Starter-Pack
Why waste money on employees for a new Dragon Age game, when you can just repackage the old shit?
How are these things even related?
EA just laid off a bunch of BioWare employees.
I’m well aware. How does them re-releasing older games make this worse?
Mmm, nah. I’m not giving money to EA for the sims. I will continue to get every new install of sims and sims 2 from the open seas and play them with WINE without issue like I have been.
I see you EA, trying to get an emergency cash injection via nostalgia after flopping with the veilguard. This won’t keep you off the chopping block forever.
The Sims 2 was the best version of the game…
However, last time I tried to play it with all DLC, on a computer made in 2018, it took over 2 hours to load.
Will that still be an issue?
Nope! It’ll probably just crash or something instead
Unlikely. I tried it with all expansions a few years ago (back when EA released it for free) and loading times were “only” a few minutes.
Did you have a bazillion mods installed? What kind of hardware were you using?
Did you have an SSD? Was the game and DLC installed on said SSD? Do you have one now if you didn’t before? This may be the difference between 2 hours and only 1.
That’s tempting… put too many hours into sims 2
