I still play Sims 2. (In fact I was just playing it a few minutes ago.) I have given Sims 3 a try on several occasions, but it just doesn't keep my interest for long. I like that I can do some more things like basements and Create a Style, but that doesn't mean much if the gameplay frustrates me. Don't get me wrong, the idea of Story Progression which is great for Legacy gameplay. But let's face it, it isn't very good. The seamless neighborhood is great for legacy as well, but what if I don't want to play legacy and want to play each household (or only a few of them) at a time? The Sims 3 is too limiting for me in that way. I guess Sims 3 is dead for me, and it could be the same thing for Sims 4 if things aren't better.
