Title
The Sims 3 and The Sims games in general is the dream of a gynecocracy, a fantasy of reality by the whims of whoever plays the game. When women or more conservative players are behind the computer, the game is more or less played in the correct way.

When it is in the hands of a man or whoever wishes to push the limits of the game, it becomes hell on SimEarth. Perhaps it's the most mainstream example of a Rorschach test.

With The Sims 1 and 2, the game was simplified to a point where it can be interesting and enjoyable with the pre-9/11 atmosphere of late-90s suburban living for the first game and the second remaining a modest chill. With the introduction of The Sims 3 and the opening of "Web 2.0" since 2007, mods are now bigger than ever and they are determinable of what occurs in the game.

When Electronic Arts fully became EA in 2001-05, it was very clear which direction they were heading. Like putting the "Christ" out of "Christmas," they essentially took the "Arts" out of EA.

    it's a clusterfuck of a game. the sims are the ugliest they have ever been, and even on a decent machine, it can be so laggy to the point it's unplayable. but if you can get it running well it's a pretty decent game, and it can be delightfully chaotic (i mean, a meteor can fall on a school full of children ffs). better than ts4, but worse than ts2 imo
