Cars : Sims 1 vs Sims 2 vs Sims 3 vs Sims 4

Finally addressing one of the many elephants in the room when it somes to sims 4. Cars have been a staple of the sims since the very start and now theyre just gone. Even if they eventually reintroduce them, I dont see how they could make up for 11 years of them being missing. But this is a comparison and not the takedown Sims 4 deserves, so what are your thoughts?

Mine?

Sims 1 was the base as always, something to build up on. Sims depended on cars for everything and it was annoying ngl but I liked how detailed the models were and how distinct they all looked

Sims 2 lacks variety but it makes up for it in details, details on the car animations and the overall look of the ones in the basegames. Sims were not as dependant on them so they felt like a nice evolution to what Sims 1 had done

Sims 3 is where I start to be a little split, on the one hand, they work better because of the openworld, on the other, there is 1 car that has actual sim interaction and its behind a paywall. They have a huge variety but this is when the game cut a little detail back. Which may not be a big deal to the majority, but it is to me.

Sims 4, I almost didnt want to include it here, but seeing they do have cars, technically, I thought it would be interesting to mention them. They are basically set dressing but I thought it was worth a mention in case they ever reintroduce them. I remember when they did the burglars update, lots of thought bubbles with cars would show up, so I thought that was a sign, who knows! But 11 years after its initial release, I dont see just when we might expect them.

So those are my thoughts, what about you? Let me know and have a great day. And btw, I see people have started dropping EA affiliation and I never had anything to do with them so this channel stays as it is. For now Im only complaining about the sims 4 even more
