This in my opinion is one of the best Sims games EA has ever produced. It has a ton of features that make it stand out such as a curfew for your teen sims, cars, and an open world with around 90 lots to explore. Did I not mention that this is all in the base game? The Sims 3 is the only Sims game with an open world which does have some downsides *cough* Island Paradise *cough* it makes the word more open not just by locations but by the Sims themselves. The Sims 3 introduces story progression, where the Sims (even the ones you create) do things by themselves. You can actually see this in the world which makes it feel way more open than another Sims game that I won't mention because you already know. There is also Create a Style where you can choose which texture, and color specifically you want your furniture to be. You can use it with really anything you want which is really cool. Gameplay is amazing you'd just have to see yourself. While the game is amazing there is some issues, such as lag and the game being corrupt. On some systems it may not run as well as on others so make sure to check. But overall, it's an amazing Sims game to play and enjoy and is definitely one of my favorites.

While it is free, believe me you are not going to enjoy it without mods or custom content. The base game is very bare, the sims look okay but compared to the previous The Sims games it is a huge disappointment. I do like the create a sim and build mode but it lacks features from the previous titles such as alarm clocks, cars and open worlds. While I do like the semi-open world system it kind of has in place, if you want to go to lets say a neighbor's house or something across the street. You're going to have to sit through a loading screen. And if that's not enough disappointment already, the life stages are very bare in the base game. There aren't even any changing tables in the base game even though there are infants for god's sake! If you're not going to play as a young adult you're going to be super bored. Even if you buy packs, you'll still be bored because the fun only lasts from a day or two to a couple of minutes. I didn't even mention the amount of bugs. So, if you want a good Sims game, The Sims 4 probably isn't the best option. I could mention a lot more but it'd get too long.
