Last gaming obsession ~ Sims 2 💚

Good morning!
Going back with the nostalgia, I ended up buying the Sims 2 package that EA decided to re-lauch about 2 months ago now?
Slipping into obsession, that’s literally all that I do, daydreaming of coming off work to be able to play my sims 🙈
I’ve been playing since the Sims 1; again, brought to me by my uncle that would play with me/pass me the disk so I could download it on my family computer. Growing up, I continued playing and bought all of them.
Sims 4 definately had gotten more of my money than I’d like to admit..
There’s so many details that I had forgotten that I love!! Especially the sims’ memories, omg the memories!! 😠although i’m really missing the family’s inventory that’s unexistant.. and omg that goddamn phone on the walls- which is bothering me so much how it just keep ringing! Gotta give it to them, although I miss little pieces, for some i’m so glad it changed in present game. I also found myself bothered not being able to play with the longevity of the sims, or how long seasons lasted.
Usually, like in my Sims 4, I’d create my family from scratch and play a few gens before I get tired of them/buy a new pack and repeat. However this time, all i’ve been playing had been the already set up families! I find hilarious how more than half of pleasentville is now related 😂
I broke down the wedding between Sandra gothik & Don Lotario- making her go with Darren Dreamer & have twins together. I made Vladimir Gothik go with Dina Caliente, having a child together; Vladimir unfortunately died of old age. Dirk Dreamer stayed with Lilith pleasant & had a child. Angela pleasant stayed with Dustin Broke and also got a child. I made the parents pleasant stay together and made daniel hold off his love adventures.
Have you went down memories lane with sims 2? (Or newly discovered it?)
How do you usually play your sims games?
