Additional notes:
- Both games have all the DLC (bar the IKEA collection for TS2 from I believe).
Both games have the Denuvo DRM for some reason so keep that in mind if you're worried about it.
Seems to be a false alarm, EA removed any mention of Denuvo from the store pages.- The Sims 1 will still run at its original resolution, but will now scale pixels to make better use of larger monitors while preserving the look and layout of the game.
- Old save files and mods are compatible with this version of the game (TS for sure according to the help page, I'm not certain about TS2).
I’ll wait for the community patches and -50% sale to get the Sims 2.
Denuvo for 20 year-old games??
Edit:
No denuvo and EA app https://steamcommunity.com/app/3314060/discussions/0/594013679434946419/
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.
Both games did get some compatibility fixes but for the most part yeah.
Right?
Edit: Yes, I could use Lutris to launch EA app and verify this game. I know it's lazy of me, but these little unnecessary barriers are annoying; I will just save my money and spend it on a game that opts to not use them like EA is wont to do. As the company can't help itself, as it is trying to emulate the success of Steam but falling on its face.
Happy The Sims 1 and The Sims 2 remaster day, regardless, as EA listened to The Sims community at least!
No standalone expansions, missing some expansion packs, no visual improvements, no UI scaling, no modern settings, and they want 20 dollars for EACH?
I'm good
Nonono, you misunderstand. They want $30 for allowing you to play The Sims 2.
Well, isn't that just great
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?
Here's what EA has to say about this.

As a casual sims enjoyer, it genuinely does feel like they're salty people liked Sims 3 more than Sims 4 and won't release an "everything" version of it.
I still have the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection from the time they ended up giving it to everyone who'd claim it for a few days.
They haven't removed it from the app... yet. Not taking any chances, I'm re-downloading it on my current PC right now.
I don't think they'll remove the Ultimate Collection from people's libraries. The main incentive to buy is... well, the ability to buy the games and the improved compatibility with modern systems - UC doesn't really affect the main demographic, i.e. people who aren't interested or knowledgeable enough to fix those issues on their own.
they used flat ass dialog popups and fucking comic sans for the text
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!
