I love the calmness of Sims 2 the white noise in the background does well to immerse you completely into the world. It doesn’t feel as cold and stale as sims 4 does.
Feels like Sims4 is a building & making avatar simulator but when you actually play it, it's just bold. Meanwhile Sims2 might have worse graphic and you can do "less" but it's more much contentful and your sims has more personality and doesn't feel like you're playing with lifeless dolls.
That’s a good way of putting it. My biggest turn off with Sims 4 is how lifeless it is. Like, the NPCs in previous titles all had varying personalities, but in Sims 4, they just feel hollow.
I started playing the sims 2 like a month ago and the first time I saw the animations I was like "wow i could spend the rest of my day just watching them cook 👁️👄👁️"
I noticed how creepy the sims 4 is, the sims make random emotion noises all the time, laugh randomly, etc, they don't even say words they grunt and laugh. What the hell is that, they do feel like lifeless dolls, which is the complete opposite point of a sims game... but okay, EA

I also hate when they started making animations worse, when sims teleport around, when you don't even see them getting inside a car, things like that... it feels weird and too videogamey. it's a simulation!
At 10:30 The Sims 4 Sim has this creepy smiling expression while doing the motions and grunts of a woman complaining that the coffee wasn't done immediately. Her expression shouldn't be like that unless it's supposed to be a horror scene of some kind. Have them at least drop their smile while they get anxious about the coffee taking a while, EA.
it's really interesting to see that the sims2 stuff is not only more detailed but also takes more time. maybe that's why sims4 feels easier, just because doing everything goes way faster. they even take less time eating than sims2
I really miss how the sims used to actually have various animations and the proper ingredients when making different meals 😢 And piles of leaves were so much more autumnal, you could make temp bonfires and kids and pets would jump in them!

The way how Sims 2 feels more realistic is insane and the fact that Sims 2 is 20 years older than the Sims 4 current state with updates it's insane also
@@rechan12read the comment again. The Sims 2 was released in 2004. The Sims 4 in 2014. It is now 2024 and The Sims 4 is still the contemporary version being updated regularly. William above said "current state" which means he is comparing to the now - 2024. That makes 20 years and not 10.
I really dislike how they made the sims in the sims 4 animations look so goofy. Like, there is an adult making something or acting like a child. I can't take ts4 seriously

Sims 2 animations have aged really well. They are still a pleasure to watch. Even if it has technological limitations in comparison to newer Sims games it still has so much more personality in the animations alone.
I loved watching my sims 2 do things, they had different ingredients for each recipe, they took things out of drawers and cupboards to do things, they could put something in the oven and leave to do something else for a while (though if they didn't come back in time the oven would get set on fire), if you made them sit still for a while they would fidget in fun ways, if they were near someone they liked on the couch or in bed they would get closer to them, it felt as if they were really doing those things, and had awareness of others around them, there were always seemingly random little quirks to notice. In the sims 4 objects appear and disappear as needed in a poof of smoke, even sims, there are animations that have people scoot close to each other but once the animation is over they go back to being separate, ... honestly sims 4 are just boring to watch. There's more to do in sims 4 but it's not as fun watching them do it. Honestly if I could play sims 4 but have sims 2 basic animations I would be so happy.
I can’t get over how in thesims4 they’re always smiling or happy it just feels so fake and stale. in thesims2 they feel so real. It’s the little imperfections that gives it so much life, heck even the scooting in chair gives it that realness I love
I think the username is just Sim City but they did a physics analysis of TS2 - 4. 2 has water physics where the water will go all the way to the edges and corners of the pool. TS 3 & 4 don't have that.
Now i understand why people compares sims 4 with sims 2 so much.. i feel like sims 4 is even way much lackluster now, kinda wish i didn't know lol. sims 2 has so much details that it kind of makes my heart feel clenched because sims4 is missing out so much.. but yeah there are some parts sims4 is doing better. and gotta love the extra details of sims 2.
I don't understand the constant comparison. Play the game you feel is 'better' period. Stop trying to convince others that one is better than the other. If Sims4 was that awful, it wouldn't have easily outsold all it's predecessors...including Sims2.

My husband knows nothing at all about the sims. He had both games completely flipped in this video. He thought the old was the new and the new was the old, simply because of the attention to detail.
Seriously, sims 4 has no excuse for lacking so much gameplay wise. Semi-open world is not the issue, it just doesn't have the charm of sims 2. They don't even have cars!
I wonder if it's more an issue of the Sims 4 team having very low quality talent when it comes to staff animators and modelers or if it's an issue of over working what staff they have.
More like rushed time and EA intentionally cock blocking the devs. ( someone checked the items in a certain pack, it seemed pretty damn odd that they stopped at 199 items in said pack. Almost as if there’s an artificial limit on how many they could actually add per pack.)
I think it's more that sims 2 was a passion project following an unexpected success, and sims 4 is a game rushed out in installments to generate revinue
Sims 2 is nearly 20 years old and yet i still prefer it over sims 4. Sims 2 is a really well done game all the way around and it's aged extremely well too. There's a sort of magic about it.
Wow, that is impressive how much better it is in details. I love it and I wish I had sims 2 again. Brings back so many good memories. I miss the sounds, they were more realistic and so were the sims in general. When she was eating, she even made chomping noises. It’s like nobody on the sims 4 team has ever played any sims before the 4th one.
Don't forget. In Sims 2 this is not the only animation when sims are eating. If your sim is cleaner (due to personality), it is not gonna eat like 7:55. Also, the hair in the Sims 2 have movement. When you are in the CAS or stylist and you rotate the sim, the hair always move (this is the best form to see the dynamic hair, but you can see it everytime your sim does something). Also, the dynamic animations are on the comfy objects. When the sim sits on a sofa or rest in a bed, the object have an animation for the weight. You can see it also when the kids jump in the bed. P.D: sorry for any misspelled, English is not my first language.
Sims 2 is and always be my favorite iteration of the Sims. That said, I do think it's worth noting that you can make much bigger leave piles in Sims 4, you just gotta take more. And then options for playing in and burning the pile come up.
You missed playing Marco Polo in the pool in Sims 2. Once your sim is in the pool click on another sim and ask to play. The thing that annoys me about Sims 4 cooking/coffee is how childish the animations are. They stir and pour like they are 3 years old and don't know how to control a spoon or how high to lift a coffee pot. Never understood why they thought such exaggerated animations were good. I guess I will be sticking with Sims 2 forever.
It's not too complicated, if you are only interested in "building" or if you just want to do some challenge and some random dumb shit with good graphics, without need to worry that you will ended up wasting several of hours, go with the Sims 4, if you are looking for a true life simulation game with a lot of interaction, go with the Sims 2, if you want a true life simulation game with more immersive world with some touch of reality go with the 3. All the Sims game have its own strength: The Sims 2: Variety of Interactions and the sims(even a townies) are actually feels alive. The Sims 3: Has a really immersive world that just make you feels like getting sucked into it. The Sims 4: Doesn't make you feel bad for pirating it.
This is so true. Sims 2 requires dedication to built relationships and fulfil wishes that you actually get to love the characters, plus having to satisfy the motives.
Sims 2 feels like the developer keep thinking how to make every action feels as realistic as it should be While Sims 4 just ask how far can we milk this default animation...
All you needed was a video of a sim taking a baby/toddler out of the highchair and then putting them in bed with one click in TS2 and about 20 clicks in TS4. Serving the family food at the table. Having a water balloon fight. Getting a sim to join an activity. Teaching a toddler to use stacking toys, or shape sorter.
I wish I could remake the Sims two with better graphics. It is a good game. I just wish it looked more like the Sims four or realistic like we all thought the Sims four was gonna be before the launch trailer came out.
In the Sims 2 my Sim was devastated for days because her fish died and the she stepped on some cockroaches. In the Sims 4 I had kill sims and the family will get happy by watching TV and hour after…
I think I'm less worried about remastered sims 4 graphics and more a perfected version of the graphics in the Sims 2. I like the aesthetic choices about the models, some of them could just use a little more shaping.
Sims2 is my childhood, when I was in primary school, my favorite thing was to turn on my PS2 and play Sims2 after finishing my homework. Although I was too young at that time and didn't know the conditions that needed to be fulfilled for the game to pass, I never passed the game, but just operating the characters to experience all kinds of life in the story mode made me feel very happy, and Sims2 will never be able to be replaced in my heart.😭❤
I am going to start playing The Sims again after not playing for YEARS and i bought The Sims 2, i've played 3 and 4 also but even after all this time not playing the game at all i just return to The Sims 2, i love that game so much ❤
Actually my grandmother puts eggs in her Mac and cheese and it greatly improves the texture. It only works for baked Mac and cheese, not the stove top kind
Ts4 also has small details that we don’t notice at first for example with brushing teeth, did you know that in ts4 if u don’t brush them they turn yellow?
@@alexf225 ok maybe in a few cases yes, but I still enjoy this game and has many good features like skill trees for occults sims, famous system, cas mode, build and buy mode, social dynamics is good and this when your sims can change their traits during gameplay.
I play the sims 2, and it always takes up more time, but all the details make it feel more life-like. Personally, I think both games are good. Sims 2 pays more attention to the function details, lole cooking and etc But Sims 4 has more details in making the sim.
I agree. The sims 2 is superior to all other sims games. Gameplay is simple, graphics have aged well and game looks great but it doesn’t need as much space and it loads pretty quickly. The sims 4 has few good things but it’s way too complicated to be as enjoyable. 🤔
Do we want to talk about being able to "go shopping" that is present in 2 but not in 4? And the fridge that fills up? The cars?? The black wolf that roams around the houses? THIEVES?? Come on, how can you remove THIEVES from the sims! Improving the graphics and losing details seems almost a joke >.
Sims has lost the soul and meaningfulness to its gameplay. Sims 4 even with all of the DLC seems like it still gets boring after you make your Sim(s) and their house. There was this sense of mystery and intrigue about the townies and the world in previous entries. I never really cared about any of the townies in Sims 4, theyre all so bland.
I miss little details and 6:12 animations in Sims 2. It's been about 15-17 years since I played it. I also enjoy Sims 4 unlike most of the fan base. Only complaint about Sims 4 is I miss certain things like cuddling etc tht was in Sims 3. I also hate all of the loading screens other than tht I enjoy it.
I feel like every thing in life is becoming more mass produced to just shove it out the door to start making the money off it. It’s sad that the same has been done to The sims. The game has come along way.. but not really.
The Sims was so ahead of it's time and everything was very intricate, I really enjoyed going back to it after years, and I still have fun and find myself playing for hours, the amount of love and care the creators had for this game is truly amazing.
This is the same sensation I felt, when I first watched a GTA IV & V Comparison and I realized why I always thought that GTA IV was way more fun. It's the same with Sims 2.
yeah, i also feel that their graphics and "sims" are rlly uncanny. i'm hoping it turns out good, but i'm actually more excited by paralives, since it seems more cozy
you can tell they put more time and thought into the game even though technology wasn't as advanced they did what they could and it feels more immersive.
I love the calmness of Sims 2 the white noise in the background does well to immerse you completely into the world. It doesn’t feel as cold and stale as sims 4 does.
I think all the random emotion noises from the sims 4 are so immersion breaking :/ sims 2 defo perfected sound design

Without a color wheel and only like 12 haircolors it doesn’t feel like a avatar simulator too. It’s so limited in every possible way it’s crazy.

While Sims 4 just ask how far can we milk this default animation...
Sims 2 even got the Mac and cheese sound down, to the point where I even had to mute it because the sound was to much lol
LOL, thanks!
All you needed was a video of a sim taking a baby/toddler out of the highchair and then putting them in bed with one click in TS2 and about 20 clicks in TS4.
Serving the family food at the table.
Having a water balloon fight.
Getting a sim to join an activity.
Teaching a toddler to use stacking toys, or shape sorter.
Thanks for the ideas! thanks for watching.
Sims 4 has as much personality as a worm
Hey now! Don’t do worms dirty like that
This comment needs more likes.
At this point give me a sims 2 with open world and I can happily die
If that happens, you wouldn't be able to play.
But hey, I'm with you. 😂
I want open world so baaaaad..the loading to go to the neighbours is so annoying especially after the for rent expansion
sims 2 just feels wayyy more realistic, even down to how the sandwich would actually look loll
I wish I could remake the Sims two with better graphics. It is a good game. I just wish it looked more like the Sims four or realistic like we all thought the Sims four was gonna be before the launch trailer came out.
Yes, I agree.
Sims 2 - life simulator
Sims 4 - goof simulator
LOL, thanks.
You forgot to compare how they do two different actions at the same time, like eating while watching a movie, or how they show emotions lol
In the Sims 2 my Sim was devastated for days because her fish died and the she stepped on some cockroaches.
In the Sims 4 I had kill sims and the family will get happy by watching TV and hour after…
@@ChibiDanyz I think we played different games
The sims 2 is way better than the sims 4
@@hamburguimmemes6312 Just repeating that on a loop is like saying nothing
@@barawen_who but its true, its way better, most people in the sims fanbase know that
All we want from the sims team is the sims 2 remastered with sims 4 graphics. That’s it!!!!
An updated version of the Sims 1
Not the sims 4 graphics, just a remasteres sims 2 😂
I think I'm less worried about remastered sims 4 graphics and more a perfected version of the graphics in the Sims 2. I like the aesthetic choices about the models, some of them could just use a little more shaping.
Building in ts4 is better but gameplay in ts2 beats every other sims imo
Nice! thanks!
14:29 bro what is that? It looks like a beaver with a corgi head.
Thanks for watching!
i never realized how much better the graphics for the food in the sims 2 was
Getting on a speed boat while naked, only in the sims 😂
LOL, yes!
Sims2 is my childhood, when I was in primary school, my favorite thing was to turn on my PS2 and play Sims2 after finishing my homework. Although I was too young at that time and didn't know the conditions that needed to be fulfilled for the game to pass, I never passed the game, but just operating the characters to experience all kinds of life in the story mode made me feel very happy, and Sims2 will never be able to be replaced in my heart.😭❤
I am going to start playing The Sims again after not playing for YEARS and i bought The Sims 2, i've played 3 and 4 also but even after all this time not playing the game at all i just return to The Sims 2, i love that game so much ❤
Now i appreciate my dad buying me a cd of sims 2 on my birthday way back 2005's+ dont remember what exact year its is. Because i am a kid then .
I said before and I'll say it again SOMEONE NEEDS TO MOD SIMS 2 ANIMATION DETAILS ONTO SIMS 4
that would be a lot of mods & imagine them constantly breaking & having to be updated 😵💫
Great concept. Thanks for watching!
I wish we could just combine ts2, ts3 and ts4 tbh
Yep, would be very interesting!
And ts1 !
Sims 2 is my favourite, period. So funny, so detailed, so smart. Brilliant game ❤❤❤
Thank you.
11:34 sims 2: *CAFFEINE KICKING IN*
Sims 4: hold up this coffee is making me dook
If I had played sims 2, I would have hated sims 4
In sims 4 there are options to either play in or set fire to the leave piles. Don't know why the options wasn't available here?
Nicht hoch genug
why do you need flour and eggs for Mac and cheese 💀💀
The main ingredient of pasta is flour and eggs.
@@fueyo2229but they’re not doing pasta from scratch, the sim just puts it all into the pan on the stove
@@czfuchs I guess they are doing pasta from scratch. Or at least it's what they want to represent.
Actually my grandmother puts eggs in her Mac and cheese and it greatly improves the texture. It only works for baked Mac and cheese, not the stove top kind
Can be stovetop baked Mac n cheese.
The Sims 4 went backwards. Also the Sims 4 was intended to be a online game.
Thank you for watching!
Ts4 also has small details that we don’t notice at first for example with brushing teeth, did you know that in ts4 if u don’t brush them they turn yellow?
Yeah and people still think that The Sims 4 has no details.
@@mekamino_kushi It has much less details than the previous games, especially the sims 2.
@@alexf225 propobly has the same amount of details but different.
@@mekamino_kushi It really doesn't. The game feels empty compared to the other games.
@@alexf225 ok maybe in a few cases yes, but I still enjoy this game and has many good features like skill trees for occults sims, famous system, cas mode, build and buy mode, social dynamics is good and this when your sims can change their traits during gameplay.
Three words : Open for business
Sims 4 food looks like slop.
For real. When playing Sims 2 I always zoom in on my Sims food because some dishes look so good!!!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching!
6:35 was hoping you’d show off when they try and get the water out of their ears after exiting the pool haha.
Yes, I forgot to include that, thanks!
They could've just made the sims 2 remastered
Have a happy Holiday and a happy new year and thank you for the videos
Happy holidays! Thanks for watching!
excessive emotions do not add personality to The Sims 4 at all, it looks like a cheap farce
Thanks for watching.
With the mac and cheese scene, in The Sims 2 gal, her body goes with the motion of stiring the mac and cheese... Look at that belly jiggle.
I play the sims 2, and it always takes up more time, but all the details make it feel more life-like.
Personally, I think both games are good.
Sims 2 pays more attention to the function details, lole cooking and etc
But Sims 4 has more details in making the sim.
This is why sims 4 base game is free on so many platforms now. Back to sims 2 for me.
I hate the way Sims 4 sims just stand around smiling and making dumb noises.
Sims 2 was made with LOVE, sims 4 was made in the sloppiest way possible!
Yes!
I agree. The sims 2 is superior to all other sims games. Gameplay is simple, graphics have aged well and game looks great but it doesn’t need as much space and it loads pretty quickly. The sims 4 has few good things but it’s way too complicated to be as enjoyable. 🤔
Yes, 4 often glitches as well a lot during gameplay at times. Thanks for watching!
Call me old fashioned all you want, but the first sims game will always be the best to me!
Awesome!
Even the sounds of the sims 2 are better.
Thanks!
All you had to show was the sims getting into their car and driving off the lot and it’s already better than the sims 3&4 combined.
Yes, the car interaction comparison is one I should do, Thanks!
1:03 *cries into sandwich* : ((((
Thanks for watching!
I like how the sims 2 character eats normally, whereas the sims 4 character looks like a hamster storing the food in her cheeks.
13:57 I think if you rake leaves once or twice again, you can burn the pile in sims 4 as well
i want to play sims 2 so badly...
Do we want to talk about being able to "go shopping" that is present in 2 but not in 4? And the fridge that fills up? The cars?? The black wolf that roams around the houses? THIEVES?? Come on, how can you remove THIEVES from the sims! Improving the graphics and losing details seems almost a joke >.
The psychotic expressions of sims 4 always get me.
Sims has lost the soul and meaningfulness to its gameplay. Sims 4 even with all of the DLC seems like it still gets boring after you make your Sim(s) and their house.
There was this sense of mystery and intrigue about the townies and the world in previous entries. I never really cared about any of the townies in Sims 4, theyre all so bland.
Cooking
Sims 2: actually looks like preparing the meal
Sims 4: *chops frantically and pours onto the plate*
My favorite will always be sims 2 on PC
Unfortunately I can only play sims 4 on PS4
I miss little details and 6:12 animations in Sims 2. It's been about 15-17 years since I played it. I also enjoy Sims 4 unlike most of the fan base. Only complaint about Sims 4 is I miss certain things like cuddling etc tht was in Sims 3. I also hate all of the loading screens other than tht I enjoy it.
Yes, the loading can be tiresome. Thanks!
0:36 I too put mustard on the sandwich with my hand, followed by a butterknife, and then my hand again.
Still better than sims 4 😅
THIS MADE ME LAUGH WAY TOO HARD. Ty, I really needed this right now 😂
I miss playing the Sims so much.. life was so simple back then lol
Yes, agreed.
Just looking at the sandwiches compared, I really don’t think Sims 4 graphics are that good. Sims 2 just looks so much better
Jfc sims 4 sounds like a radio station with all the random sound effects
The teenager in me says they Hawk Tuah’d into the sink. Still, awesome comparison video.
the random “aw yibs” after emptying the coffee pot 😭
LOL, I know.
Indeed, I always scream out loud "AAAH YES" in the middle of the night whenever I empty a coffee pot, nice job EA
The litle details in the sims 2 are awsowme
I feel like every thing in life is becoming more mass produced to just shove it out the door to start making the money off it. It’s sad that the same has been done to The sims. The game has come along way.. but not really.
me watching these scene (4:49) at wednesday at 1:00 am: "Yeah, that's cool."
I could just clearly watched myself 2 is being showing off and bullying off of how glamourous the game is really is to 4 😂😂❤
Yes! Thanks for watching!
@@Pronoun_Sims Ya❤❤!
The Sims was so ahead of it's time and everything was very intricate, I really enjoyed going back to it after years, and I still have fun and find myself playing for hours, the amount of love and care the creators had for this game is truly amazing.
Awesome, thank you for watching and sharing!
This is the video I've been waiting for. I actually downloaded Sims 2 already like 4 months ago but I still haven't installed it
Sims 2 only failed on the eating speed tbh
i think its been fixed by now but in the sims 4 sims would never stay still while sitting down for meals!! they kept playing musical chairs
You can really see how lazy the sim team got on the sims games.
This is the same sensation I felt, when I first watched a GTA IV & V Comparison and I realized why I always thought that GTA IV was way more fun. It's the same with Sims 2.
Yep! Thanks.
I'm excited for life by you. I hope they'll do something with their human graphics, cuz as of now, im not loving the look :))
yeah, i also feel that their graphics and "sims" are rlly uncanny. i'm hoping it turns out good, but i'm actually more excited by paralives, since it seems more cozy
you can tell they put more time and thought into the game even though technology wasn't as advanced they did what they could and it feels more immersive.
the little nuances, such as scooting of the chair in when she sits down to eat, that make the Sims 2 feel more natural and real.
11:36 why is she all shaky lol
too much coffee, hahah
