The entire story of The Sims // The full timeline of The Sims

2 роки томуThe sims is one of the most successful games out there, love it or hate it, it has received an overwhelming following over the years, it has won multiple awards and after over 20 years it’s still going and still making the big bucks.
But in order to understand how the sims became what it is today we will have to travel back in time to the very early beginnings, 1984, buckle in gang it’s time for a history lesson!
In this video I’ll be talking about the entire story of the sims, a full timeline, from the games creator, Will wright’s first games, right the way through to the latest sims game, touching on each spin off in between.

Sims 2 was such an adult game, Sims 3 was not that chidish either but afterwards... They basically made the game for much more younger audience. Sims 4 is unplayable without mods, at least for me. I hope they don't continue to this "childish" gameplay type in their further Sims titles.

The Sims game taught my son to read because it associated written words to specific objects and actions. He started out asking "What does this say" and after only about a month, one day he asked "Does this say make coffee?" and it did, and seriously within 2 months after that with some extra help and rewards, he was reading fluently.

I also learned English while playing especially this game. Because as you said this game is needed to be looking at what it says. And at first, I wouldn’t even know what each words actually mean (except the most known ones like; water, yes, no, book, computer and basic ones etc.) I always had a keen on to somethings that I’m obsessed with and wanted to grasp and learn the language because I wanted to know what it was saying on the screen and what my household is going through. And then, I was translating each sentences on Google Translate on my phone without even getting bored. By the time goes on, I started to don’t look up the translate that much. I was like 14 it’s when the sims 4 first released. I immediately went to shop and got it. However before the sims 4, I played the sims 2 less tho. Because it was boring to play it and the graphics were not that great and alluring for me. Then, I spent most of my time playing the sims 3, loved it, but somehow I didn’t even involve in to look up the translator. I speak 3 languages; Turkish, Sign Language and English. Now I’ll turn 23 on 27th August and currently majoring in English Literature. And studying French. Then Spanish will come after it. 😊

Sameee, I remember preordering sims 4 and practically buzzing when it finally arrived. Plugged in my lil plumbob emotion light that came with the preorder and then... Was bored. Was completely underwhelmed. I know now from friends and UKpostsrs that they have added a shit tonne of packs to make it alot better and fill in the gaps but a) the lack of a second hand market so you don't have to pay a billion dollars on origin sucks and b) I don't think I'll ever get over the utter disappointment of being so so excited for the Sims 4 only for it to be a hollow unfinished game

I am a Sims 3 player as well. Sims 3 was an extremely ambitious project for its time, especially with the Into The Future Pack. I only wish the Sims 3 is a newer game made with more modern technology and has better optimization, so more people can actually enjoy it without experiencing so much bugs, and thus, more people will understand why the Sims 3 deserves many loyal fans. Gameplay wise, the Sims 3 offers a highly immersive, realistic, and customizable experience. FYI. I actually use the Sims 3 to recreate scenes from other video games, thanks for its fully customizable CAS system and palettes.

I loved playing and creating families throughout the years of this whole franchise. I'm 38 now and still enjoy playing. I have a family of my own now, but when they all fall asleep it's like old times for me and I turn back into that 17 year old and stay up late playing Sims 4 for hours again 😍

LOL once I thought I paused the game as I headed off to school and when I came back my sims had all either aged up or kicked the bucket (DIED) or there were new family members lol. I was like "Miss Mary what did you do?" Luckly I was smart and saved the game but I did play with the newly created sims.

I actually played the Sims 3 for console first when I was 9 or 10 years old when I first saw my daddy play it. 💖 I also played The MySims spinoff series as well. And I do agree with everyone who say The Sims 3 is arguably the best in The Sims Franchise. I especially loved Create A Style and the open world! 🌈💖💕❤️ When I got to play The Sims 4, I got the console version and it honestly felt like an upgrade because I got to play with more than one family, unlike The Sims 3 for console. I was sad that Create A Style was gone and the loading screens were too frequent. I still can't believe that I have to wait between a loading screen when I want to visit a nextdoor neighbor. So I was annoyed about that. But I was happy to have more sims in my household, 8 instead of 6. I also got to experience Sims packs for the first time. From Expansion Packs to Game Packs to Stuff Packs. So I certainly love The Sims 4 and do admittedly think The Sims 4 have some improvements over the previous Sims games. However, I do think that there's plenty of room for improvement. ❤️💕❤️

Some other interesting trivia: Sims were first mentioned as the citizen of SimCity and first appeared onscreen in the 1996 young audience spin-off SimTown, while Simlish is first heard in SimCopter.

@muticere 2 роки тому
The Sims 2 was the first and last time I found myself playing primarily with the pre-made Sims. In TS1 they just weren't that interesting. In TS3 they were interesting, but the story progression system made it impossible to be in any way invested given how any household not currently under your control would just fly off in whatever crazy direction and the backstory groundwork would quickly mean nothing. And of course TS4, well, we know what went wrong there. TS2, though, playing pre-mades was like "the game" in TS2. It felt like I was actually playing out a scenario that was setup and I get to decide where it goes. It was always so fun and interesting. easily my all time favorite was Brandi Broke, love her to death, I've sunk so many hours into taking her life into all different interesting directions.

I think the Sims 3 is the best Sims game. I love that: -You have so much freedom to do what you want in the game. No one’s telling you how to play. You don’t need to follow stupid points to keep your sims happy and succesful. -You have an open world. You can go anywhere with your sims, not like the other games where they’re basically locked up at home. Not to mention the town is fully editable with more and bigger lots. -The sims 3 sims actually look like real people and their interactions are also realistic, including romantic ones as opposed to the Sims 4 which are just so robbed of passion. -It has colorwheel, so you’re not forced to settle for any lame patterns.

I got incredibly into Sims 2 for years, only dabbled in Sims 3, but have been going heavier into Sims 4 of late. There are a lot of things I like about Sims 4 but I still think Sims 2 is my favorite. Possibly because I spent so much time on that one and had thousands upon thousands of custom creations that I had downloaded over the years. Either way, I'm a Sims addict.

Loved this video. It gave me flashbacks to the first time I played sims (sim city and Sims1). It was awesome seeing the transformation from the first Sims 1 generation up to the Sims4 generation. Each sims generation had something I liked so its really hard to say which I liked better. The Sims has definitely come a long way. Did you know that in the Sims 2 and (if I remember right) Sims3 you could make any lot the size lot you wanted and you could use the turain tool do do it? If there is anything I miss from the older packs it is being able to make the lot size you wanted and designe it the way you wanted. One more thing I miss that the earlier sims generations had were the Zodiac sings. I love the Sims franchise and have since the first generation sims game.

Best video ive seen focused on the lore behind the franchise. Just in time to the fact the team is being given a lot more freedom and will be adding more stuff to the game as updates that were in previous installments like more lore to other families

Someone commented that this is a very complete and well written video overview and I agree! However I was disappointed you didn't mention two very important aspects of the games: same sex relationships was possible right from the start making it more inclusive than any other game had been, and cheat codes could be used to skip the grinding! In my option Sims 2 is MORE fun to play with cheat codes because you could modify you sims to focus on story and less on career development/making money. Thank you for doing this video~

Great video! Just watched your previous one with Bella Goth, and was suggested this one. My personal favorite is the sims 2 and sims bustin out, played them so much during my childhood! Not really sure with the sims 4 though… seems like they just keep releasing packs and exstras instead of releasing a new game…

Sims 2 will always be my favourite game, although that being said I absolutely love Sims 4. I played Sims 3 a few times at my sisters but it honestly never grabbed me. I think there was too much customization to be honest, it took too long to do ANYTHING and the loading times were ridiculous. I love the style of the sims 4 and I don't use mods that change gameplay, only that assist with quality of life stuff (tool mod, better build and buy etc). I'll be happy with the sims 4 for another few years yet!!

Sims 2 will forever be my favorite. I don't know if that's because it was the first sims game I played or because it's just plane and simply the best... my dream game would be a mix between sims 2 + better graphics and to adapt the old animatios like sims 4. I also want to tell you that your voice it's both soothing and hilarious to me depending the way you say things and I just love your vids for that. The minute I saw your fist video I subscribe, your voice also reminds me of Rebecca the character from The Originals, maybe its like a accent thing. Idk. But I love it hahah (i'm weird i know) Love from Argentina🇦🇷❤

Can't believe you forgot the Sims 2 for the Nintendo DS. Where you have to run build your Hotel, defeat a Mafia boss, Cult leader and Crazy cleaning robot, fight aliens with your water pistol and fight gangsters as the raticator, the rat Version of Batman. Also you can build aliences with interesting npcs, like a mummy, or the mole king. Oh also Big foot lives in your basement. Idk what the Sims 2 for Nintendo DS was, but it was something, and I had a good time playing it as a kid,lol.

Omg what a trip down memory lane! I was 11 when sims 1 came out and so was obviously obsessed. Even by sims 2 I was still playing and buying every expansion pack going haha then adult life came along and it became a game from my childhood until recently. I came back again to sims 4 a couple of years ago and also discovered mods and cc for the first time and my god how that has changed everything! I’m now back to being obsessed with a more adult version of the game! Great video

The Sims 4 was such a set back. It really is an incomplete game. TS4 literally is Sims 1 and 2 together with a few little add ons. Not to mention the Sims themselves look like generic cartoonish blocky playdough Sims. TS4 is just a money grabber. There are so many of those packs and kits that could be added together. Plus EA took away the lore of the families with TS4, they took away traits, added ridiculous walks, and the emotions are useless and rarely come into play. There's not a lot of people who play TS4 without mods and CC to make it playable. I will forever love The Sims 3. The creative freedom you have with that game makes it replay able. The Sims 3 have more traits which add to their personalities and how they interact with other Sims and they have Zodiac signs which play a big roll as well. Yes there's CC and mods for TS3 to help enhance gameplay, but, unlike TS4 where CC and mods are needed to make the game fun, the CC and mods for TS3 are there to enhance, but, are not needed. Plus, in the TS3, you can cause drama, where as in TS4, you can't. If a Sim cheats in TS4, they don't care, but, in TS3, if a Sims cheats, they pay the price. The Sims 3 is just the better of the all Sims games. I started with TS1 and loved it. Played TS2 for hours and hours and loved it and still do (the cut scenes and some interactions are just extra, but, fun). The Sims 3 will forever be my love. I've tried TS4, but, get bored so easily. With TS3, I can create storylines for my families and play it for hours and not get bored. Out of all the Expansions for the Sims 3, Supernatural is my favorite. Moonlight Falls is my favorite world. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

My favorite packs ever are all from the sims 3 (i know the names are off but u get what im saying lol): island paradise, the magic one, and university. Although buggy, the freaking hotel feature was my favorite!!! werewolves and fairies were also just so fun to play with :) lastly, the university from sims 3 would occupy me for hours. i loved the community aspect of that one and it was so easy to make new friends

This was a delightful walk through time. I'm probably older than most your viewers. I've played every single sims game ever released. My favorite was sims city 4 until sims 4 came out. I had spent many hundreds of hours playing Sim city 4 and as much as I loved the sims 2 and 3 nothing really hooked me the way sims 4 did. The game play is far more immersive than prior versions.

Well done! This was both nostalgic and informative. It was so interesting to see those 1st gen graphics again and recall those days back when The Sims initially came out. I had every single expansion pack and was a cc and mod junkie back then as well. I never played The Sims 2 or 3(I was still commited to the original until my laptop crapped out on me and I lost years of game play), but did get into The Sims Freeplay and Mobile for a bit. I ultimately left those by the wayside because particularly with The Sims Moblle, it was far too easy to spend money in game(it started to feel like a cash grab). I started playing The Sims 4 earlier this year while on furlough and I'm so glad I finally stepped into the present. The Sims 4 modding community is next level. EA definitely has their work cut out for them with The Sims 5. I hope they've been taking notes(they need to start offering some of our fave modders consulting jobs too).
