Hello, burglars has been one of the most requested videos since I started comparing and I always answered I'd wait to see if Sims 4 reintroduced them, but you know what? I'm starting to think we're not getting burglars in Sims 4 after all. I wanted this to be a short but lately all my short ideas have turned into full videos (lol) so here it is, a not so brief comparison of burglars
I don't know if Sims 4 will reintroduce them eventually but if they do I guess I'll find a way to compare it without repeating everything I said on this video.
What do yall think about them? Me?
I absolutely hated him in Sims 1 because there's no possibility for revenge, it's an NPC which you cannot seek nor interact with in any way so if you forgot to buy the alarm chances are you won't see him again. But that's a good mechanic imo, something out of your control that you cannot predict and it's just there to make your game more challenging
Sims 2 did a great job of giving them a bit more personality, it's no longer a sneaky sim (which doesn't even sneak) but just a bunch of sims coming to get your stuff and you have many ways to prevent robberies. I don't like that they're not wearing a mask though.
Sims 3 mostly followed Sims 2 except they added even more ways to prevent burglars from robbing, I like how you can follow them and they're in the criminal career and how Sims can steal stuff for themselves, it's fun to utilize the open world concept to just go around houses stealing stuff, I'd love it if you could steal things back from burglars by following them home
For me it goes Sims 3 with Sims 2 very close behind and Sims 1. Altho, the way Sims 2 react to everything going on around them is always a big plus. But that's just my opinion, let me know yours and I'll see you on the next one, will probably be infants seeing they're coming in march but let's see if I can fit in a few shorts I've been meaning to do before they come.
