    The Sims 2 was the best version of the game…

    However, last time I tried to play it with all DLC, on a computer made in 2018, it took over 2 hours to load.

    Will that still be an issue?

      Did you have an SSD? Was the game and DLC installed on said SSD? Do you have one now if you didn’t before? This may be the difference between 2 hours and only 1.

        I dont think my wife was using mods. I don’t know what her hardware was either, but I believe the computer came from ibuypower.

    Mmm, nah. I’m not giving money to EA for the sims. I will continue to get every new install of sims and sims 2 from the open seas and play them with WINE without issue like I have been.

    I see you EA, trying to get an emergency cash injection via nostalgia after flopping with the veilguard. This won’t keep you off the chopping block forever.

    High seas is still the best way to experience these games!
