The Sims & The Sims 2 Legacy Collections - Official Reveal Trailer
-
I haven't had issues with Denuvo on Linux thus far. It's been a non factor.
-
Good to know, so these might be playable as well.
-
I keep seeing "have all DLC" but they seem to be conflating Expansion/Stuff Packs with actual Downloadable Content.
Does The Sims 1 contain all the Maxis website stuff? Is the downloadable Elle Woods no longer lost media?
Does the Sims 2 include all the downloadables from The Exchange? The downloads from Sims Store? The downloadable pre-order bonuses? The downloadable Christmas pack?
-
I've tried to like these games so much since the first one came out back in the day. I've played all of them, multiple times but can never go last one hour. I don't get it. I should like these games!
-
Why would that matter? Pirate the original if you want. Denuvo barely effects performance. That claim is so over exaggerated.
-
So if I'm reading these right, these are the same as downloading from an abandoned website but they've added drm? Uhhh I'll pass.
-
It just seems like an unnecessary headache, configuring Wine tends to be a mixed bag situation, at times it simply works and other times not so much. I don't know if I want to pay EA for the privilege to develop a headache because Wine is being precocious and annoying. Honestly, the Denuvo implementation killed my interest fast, I don't buy games with that anti-tamper software embedded in it, unless it can be turned off like in Steam's Easy Anti-Cheat. Thank you for the suggestion!
-
EA... EA never changes
-
I wasn't trying to imply anything else to be clear, just wanted to mention that their app on its own doesn't mean it won't work. I completely agree otherwise.
-
Both games did get some compatibility fixes but for the most part yeah.
-
What about the pizza hut content? 99% of people don't even REMEMBER the pizza hut stuff!
-
they used flat ass dialog popups and fucking comic sans for the text
-

You're fine, I was just stating my own opinion. As it's true, if I didn't have such an intolerance to certain barriers to entry...I could get this game to work easily. As weirdly enough, I will spend more than 10 minutes looking for obscure repositories to add to my distro to make something work (like Vintage Story, I needed an older Fedora 39 repo of .NET 7 to make the game run) even if a Flatpak exists. ROFL
I'm just a silly sausage, I took zero offense...If anything, my initial comment was too speedy and needed more consideration before posting it!
-
It's all good, I didn't take your reply as a negative. It would be awesome if we could play anything with zero issues but we can't always be this lucky I'm afraid (though I'm all for heckling big corps about DRM).
-
No standalone expansions, missing some expansion packs, no visual improvements, no UI scaling, no modern settings, has mandatory EA App and Denuvo integration, and they want 20 dollars for EACH?
I'm good
-
none of those are DLC
-
Nonono, you misunderstand. They want $30 for allowing you to play The Sims 2.
-
As long as we consistently don't buy their intentionally compromised products...It's been shown that companies will relent. Like Sony did recently with their PSN requirements for certain games, as the hostile feedback was hurting sales. I will continue to heckle those big corps myself, until they kowtow! It's a boss battle, but they only have so much HP, Chip Damage is a successful strategy.
