My favorite little detail from the sims 3 is that you can regularly go grocery shopping for ingredients and that having them will make recipes free to cook. It’s neat because when you see the prices pop back up you know you have to send your sims out to go shopping again. It feels realistic
The sims 4 com Vida campestre ( fazenda ) tem uma opção de traço do lote que você pode fazer todas as comidas comprando ou plantando, tipo para fazer um jantar você também precisa de todos os ingredientes para preaprá-lo assim como Ts3. Mas tipo para quem não gosta ou tem preguiça é útil pois dá para ativar ou não essa opção.
You needed to go grocery shopping in 2 though it was less convenient as you had to literally do a loading screen to go to a grocery store lot or have them delivered. 4 also lowers prices if you have ingredients (there's even a simple living lot trait that makes you have those ingredients to cook) but again you'll have to either get them delivered or be near a booth that sells groceries. I found the rabbit hole you could drive to the to be the best combo of convenient and immersive

No, they're trying to distract you from the fact that all recipes are just cutting veggies for a salad, and no two ingredients appear at the same time on the board...
Sims 2 had the smoothest animations by far and the best details. From what I've seen through gameplay, I barely see anything locking into place, and I just love how they open drawers just to get the utensils they need. Sims 3, while not as smooth and detailed, is still pretty good and it has its own details that Sims 2 didn't have. Plus most of the recipes aren't just placing ingredients in a bowl and mixing them.

Why is Sims 4 so obsessed with dumping things and why do ovens and dishwashers open automatically? Sims 2 > 3 > 1 >>> 4
You forgot to mention that in Sims 2, if you have Seasons installed you can grow and fish for fresh ingredients, which if you cook with them will give the meals a sparkling look to them, indicating improved quality.
Sims 2 may have some of the best animations, but Sims 3 has the best implemented cooking with its various meals, the skill level requirements, and their use of appliances. It might not look as good, but there's more to offer in the feature department.
I think sims 3 couldn't have too many detailed animations like 2 because the sims 3 already requires a NASA supercomputer to run the program. I appreciate the diversity in the appliances and recipes.
@doom3798you also need some mods to help with bloat and routing issues (overwatch and error trap, plus master controller for reset everything). and an fps limiter. the gameplay is there for ts3 but the performance is rough without some work.
I never realized how ahead of its time The Sims 2 was. It came out in 2004, literally 20 years ago and its attention to detail and gameplay is what we SHOULD have in The Sims 4… It’s like the developers went backwards. The Sims 2 and 3 were definitely made with love, passion and dedication.
They also forgot that food in TS3 requires ingredients, and uses the correct one even in base game. TS4 requires Cottage Living just so eggs, milk and meat would be available as ingredients...
@@adrianblake8876 So far in the base game in TS3 like there are only 2 recipes you NEED to find the ingredients for which is Angel cake (Forgot the name of it) And Ambrosia
oh man ... i really dislike the Sims 4 and all these over-exaggerated personalities ._. ... but i just love how many different dishes and meals there are :/
Did you know that there is a new and improved Sims Game coming soon called "Life by You" ? It's made by Will Wright, the original creator of The Sims and the Maxis production studio 🩷 its the game we've all longed for as Sims Fans.. Sims 4 was absolutely disappointing and you could tell that it was a quick cash grab for EA..that's why Will started a new production studio to give us the game we've always wanted 🥺 improved graphics, it's open world (unlike Sims4), new activities, accessories and a lot of stuff that would normally be sold as separate add ons 😩🩷 it's just all-round a better game !! They even posted a few Game plays on their TH-cam channel (also called "Life By You") - *keep in mind that the Game plays on their channel are on the unfinished game 🥰 they still need to add voices/ a language and fine-tune a lot of things !* I really don't know how he managed to do it without getting copyrighted by EA 🤣 that's also why there isn't a language yet because they have to create a new one similar to simlish 🥰 If you're a Sims fan then please show them some love by following their TH-cam channel 🥺🩷 He spend all this money because he's ashamed of what happened to the Sims and how disappointed many of the fans were.. OH I ALMOST FORGOT TO ADD: ITS CUSTOM CONTENT FRIENDLY 😍🩷
While Sims 4 definitely expanded the cooking, the simplification of the process with the teleporting utensils as well as over-the-top animations (the knife spinning, the bowl flipping) can get so annoying after a while.
But to be honest, when I made my first own pizza from 0, i did something like a rain dance of happiness, so i guess its not from nothing (still boring after 99x time tho...) XD
Through all the little details in 2 that were absent in 1, you can tell that Maxis were excited to express themselves and their new ideas for a next-gen game with the capability to bring so much more to life. There was passion there.
Sims 2 & 3: *Is cooking with focusedly, showing the proper way to cook while at the same time being glamourous at it* 4: *Doesn't focus and instead playing with food *
@fbi_weegee because instead of wasting time animating those flashy comical animations they could have put that effort into detail like how in the sims 2 they take the bowls out of the cabinets and they prepare the food realistically instead of it just appearing.
@@fbi_weegeejust because they pop tons of food choices in UI, doesn’t mean there’s substance. The previous installments had less ingredients but they had passion, love, substance, gameplay and most importantly… functionality 😂
I realise why I enjoy the Sims 2 - its the movement, quirks and surprising details like the baked Alaska, how the Sim would react to the food that made the game playable many times over.
I notice that Sims 4 feels like they make the animation for cooking silly to distract how low quality and lazy the food looks while making it compared to other games.
i mean you can’t deny that the sims 4 has the most complex, fleshed out cooking system which is so much fun to play. where they lose me is with those animations. i don’t understand why everything about that game has to be so damn cartoony and over the top
The Sims 2 has the best meal preparation in the series with only a few let downs as there’s no particles when pouring or chopping and the food in the mixing bowl doesn’t spin which both appear in the Sims 3.
For Sims 4, I had to use a mod so my sims wouldn't be so over the top and showboaty when cooking. Miss how the sims prepared food from the Sims 2. Never played 3, but it looks pretty impressive from what I've seen.
"Sims 4 has more options that affect nothing except the flavour text while having worse animations and graphics, as well as less actual gameplay" is a comment that's true for this video and virtually any other sims comparison video. With cows for some reason being the only exception
The over exaggerated animations of the sims 4 will never not annoy me, my patience would not cope 😅 also the laziness of the whole oven animation 20:25 is outstandingly bad that it doesn’t match up where the rack just teleports back into the oven because they couldn’t be bothered to animate sims bending down. They cut lots of corners and it shows, which knowing sims 4 was intended to be a mobile game makes even more sense now that there’s no in-depth animations. I’m sure the animators are good at what they do, but given the time constraints I imagine they had no choice but to cut said corners, yet with how much money this game has made EA, there’s no excuse for it really. I have major concerns for TS5 with all that in mind. Expect more corners to be cut. 😬
I’m definitely biased but Sims 3 is my personal favorite! Also being able to shop for ingredients is a great feature (even better if you get the nraaas mod that requires ingredients to be able to cook). Who else gets kind of nervous when the TS4 sim spins that knife around?😅
I liked the sims 2 but the sims 3 had me in a chokehold! I didn’t like the sims 4 at first but once they fixed and expanded the game more I liked it. If they created open world for the sims 4, owning multiple properties and the color wheel, it would be the best sims game in my opinion.
The garden salad in sims 4 gave me chills... for all the wrong reasons. The veggies are prepared, why is she spinning the bowl like a maniac? It shouldn't take that long to mix prepared salad and put it on a plate 😭 The crazy laughing while cooking was pure cringe 😳😵💫
I always have a soft spot for Sims 3 cooking. It felt very realistic and I loved going to the grocery store and picking out ingredients and buying new recipes, or cooking a family member’s favorite for their birthday. It was the little things. The Sims 4 is weird. I love the new cultural dishes and the variety but it still feels weirdly shallow. I think it’s the ways skills themselves work and the fact that I can’t set any kind of favorite or preference without sacrificing one of the only three traits you get. I feel like I can take different approaches to cooking in TS3 but weirdly don’t feel like I have as much flexibility in TS4 despite all of the new options.
Yeah I really want them to add food favorites as a favorite type. Having just one favorite was a bit weird in 3 (and you couldn't change it so a kid would have the same favorite their whole life) but it was still nice to have them recognize it and specifically get that bonus if you made it. Since there's so many foods maybe they can do do categories like they did with personality traits, like put everything that would have pork together so we can have halal or kosher sims. Also in 3 they were better at recognizing which foods were for what meal. Only the insane or childish sims would automatically eat cake for breakfast. Littlemisssam has a mod that improves it but it's annoying
@@keit99 Yes they did, so they just need to add it as a category. It's mostly pretty cool, they even have unique descriptions for the moodlets when someone likes or dislikes things. Right now we have color, decor, fashion, music, hobbies and skills, conversation topics and types of Sim (though we can't find those last two out for other sims yet)
Fun Fact: In the Sims 4, there are certain foods that can effect your sim's mood. For example: Heart cookies will make your sim flirty and gummy bear pancakes will make your sim playful.
0:47 i remember as a kid i didn't understand that you really need minimum 1 skill in cooking to avoid near guaranteed fire, and so i never bought my sim a stove. it wasn't until the game gave me a random tip that i can avoid nothing but salads if i have a stove that i realized what i had put my guy through
Sims 1 - больше резала себе пальцы, чем еду. Sims 2 - супер проработка Sims 3 - чуть лучше чем 2 часть, но торт подожгла не об жопу😂 Sims 4 - больше цирк, чем готовка (крутит, вертит) Спасибо за видео ❤
the sims 1: good amount of detail especially for the time, real effort put in good prep, had the texture because of its time (2000) the sims 2: most realistic meal preparation, detailed as hell, beautifully styled. a *20 year old* game the sims 3: the most realistic looking textures at least to me, (the sims 3 art style and textures are a personal favourite.) less detail and realism of the food prep than sims 2. sims just pull a mixing bowl from their ass. it still looks good, at the sacrifice of some details. as of now this is an almost *15 year old* game. looks the best out of them all the sims 4: unrealistic cooking prep, most foods look like they are being made the same way when using the cutting board and mixing bowl. it looks as though salt and pepper and tomatoes are cut up for every meal including desserts?? sims wave their hand for EVEN MORE things than ever before to just magically appear. the art style is revolting for a game of its time similar to claymation (claymation is fine, but not for this game) and both the sims 2 and 3 look much more realistic. the food textures are horrific, worst looking *so far* worse than a child's playdough sculpture. overall lacking real depth, the cooking feature, as well as the sims 4 as a whole, is the worst out of the 4. the other games look and feel like care was put into them. the sims 4 feels soulless.
Hey Mole! I wanted to talk to you for days now. Have you not been home? Also what do you mean the sims 4 is the worst?? It has juggling knives!! Isn't that realistic when prepping your play-doh breakfast?
The oly meal with a unique effect in sims 3 is ambrosia, it will always be "glowing" a hazy glow when its done not sure why this dish the the only one unique
@@ChXrisIf I recall correctly, ambrosia also resets the age bar of the current life stage the sim was in. If a living sim ate it, the age bar would just reset. If a ghost ate it, they’d be revived and the age bar would reset.
I personally really love the attention to detail in Sims 2 where Sims if they have available space under the counter (for example if there is no dishwasher and such) that they take the utensils and bowls from there ... and this is just for cooking, I remember that even interaction with a car was more in detail. For Example if you bought the cheapest piece of garbage your sim would have troubles closing the door for example or starting the engine .. I really hated when they completely got rid of these animations in Sims 3 and instead car just teleported to the street and sim teleported into it
I love The Sims 2. I never played it. From what I can see, the animations had a lot of time and effort put into. I love how she sets the table properly. I can't find it on steam. I only have The Sims 4 and I wish it had all of these features.
@@EdwardSmith-gs1xg I know that the third game is incredible, but in my opinion, Sims 2 is better and if I say that Sims 1 got a 9.0 it is because it is a masterpiece that revolutionized the genre. and if you say the sims 3 is better well, is good.
I absolutely HATE that the Sims4 animations are so cartoony and exaggerated Its like theyre trying SO HARD to go the Disney route and appeal to little kids
Sims 1: gets hurt all the time Sims 2: very robotic/quiet Sims 3: realistic/what humans do Sims 4: *just dance* *mess around* *circus show* *play with the food*
the other sims: *cooking like a normal person*
sims 4: *laughing UNCONTROLLABLY at the salad*
the sim had the Evil trait, that's why she kept laughing

@doom3798you also need some mods to help with bloat and routing issues (overwatch and error trap, plus master controller for reset everything). and an fps limiter. the gameplay is there for ts3 but the performance is rough without some work.
Lazy duchess patches fixes most of sims 3 issues including the bugs and crashes.
I never realized how ahead of its time The Sims 2 was. It came out in 2004, literally 20 years ago and its attention to detail and gameplay is what we SHOULD have in The Sims 4… It’s like the developers went backwards. The Sims 2 and 3 were definitely made with love, passion and dedication.
I know everyone will say 2 is the best, but I want to take a moment to appreciate the little details in 3!
I think that The Sims 2 e 3 are both the best
@@MVinyM I support this stance!
Agreed
I've played all the games and have owned all EPs for sims 1-3. Sims 3 with the open world and the Ambitions EP was my favorite.
@@MVinyM Yeah! It's really all on taste in those two.
You forgot how the Sims 3 also requires appliances. Hot dogs require a microwave unless using a grill
They also forgot that food in TS3 requires ingredients, and uses the correct one even in base game. TS4 requires Cottage Living just so eggs, milk and meat would be available as ingredients...
@@adrianblake8876 So far in the base game in TS3 like there are only 2 recipes you NEED to find the ingredients for which is Angel cake (Forgot the name of it) And Ambrosia
@@Macmactoolazy You say it like you don't need an egg and a fruit to make pancakes...
@@adrianblake8876 Oh Sry
oh man ... i really dislike the Sims 4 and all these over-exaggerated personalities ._. ... but i just love how many different dishes and meals there are :/
I mean yes they are many but if you consider the Shit 4 lacks gameplay, love, passion, ambition and functionality… the recipes won’t do much 😭
All of that but the food visuals in sims 2 still looks better 😂
well, not personalities since every sim in ts4 acts the same when cooking lol
Did you know that there is a new and improved Sims Game coming soon called "Life by You" ? It's made by Will Wright, the original creator of The Sims and the Maxis production studio 🩷 its the game we've all longed for as Sims Fans.. Sims 4 was absolutely disappointing and you could tell that it was a quick cash grab for EA..that's why Will started a new production studio to give us the game we've always wanted 🥺 improved graphics, it's open world (unlike Sims4), new activities, accessories and a lot of stuff that would normally be sold as separate add ons 😩🩷 it's just all-round a better game !! They even posted a few Game plays on their TH-cam channel (also called "Life By You") - *keep in mind that the Game plays on their channel are on the unfinished game 🥰 they still need to add voices/ a language and fine-tune a lot of things !* I really don't know how he managed to do it without getting copyrighted by EA 🤣 that's also why there isn't a language yet because they have to create a new one similar to simlish 🥰
If you're a Sims fan then please show them some love by following their TH-cam channel 🥺🩷 He spend all this money because he's ashamed of what happened to the Sims and how disappointed many of the fans were..
OH I ALMOST FORGOT TO ADD: ITS CUSTOM CONTENT FRIENDLY 😍🩷
Sims 4 is as exaggerated as the society has become.
While Sims 4 definitely expanded the cooking, the simplification of the process with the teleporting utensils as well as over-the-top animations (the knife spinning, the bowl flipping) can get so annoying after a while.
I feel like Sims 4 cooking is unnecessarily emotional...
Sims 4 animations in a nutshell.
But to be honest, when I made my first own pizza from 0, i did something like a rain dance of happiness, so i guess its not from nothing (still boring after 99x time tho...) XD
The Sims 2 had so many tiny details, for every single thing
The likes we’ll never see with the way they keep making games now 😣
Through all the little details in 2 that were absent in 1, you can tell that Maxis were excited to express themselves and their new ideas for a next-gen game with the capability to bring so much more to life. There was passion there.
Sims 2 & 3: *Is cooking with focusedly, showing the proper way to cook while at the same time being glamourous at it*
4: *Doesn't focus and instead playing with food *
I love all of them. Because watching the sims cook the food is super satisfying regardless of the game.
Sims4 with all the flashy but no substance. I hate it with my passion.
The animations are so annoying they try so hard to be quirky
Wdym no substance there's literally no many different cooking options, there's arguably the most substance of all the games
@fbi_weegee because instead of wasting time animating those flashy comical animations they could have put that effort into detail like how in the sims 2 they take the bowls out of the cabinets and they prepare the food realistically instead of it just appearing.
@@fbi_weegeejust because they pop tons of food choices in UI, doesn’t mean there’s substance. The previous installments had less ingredients but they had passion, love, substance, gameplay and most importantly… functionality 😂
@@fbi_weegeeHave you seen the pizza? It looks like shit.
That sims 4 sim doing the Maniacal laugh while cooking like if shes doing something mischievous with the food
She is evil, so she does that a lot unfortunately ❤️
I realise why I enjoy the Sims 2 - its the movement, quirks and surprising details like the baked Alaska, how the Sim would react to the food that made the game playable many times over.
I notice that Sims 4 feels like they make the animation for cooking silly to distract how low quality and lazy the food looks while making it compared to other games.
The Sims 2 is well cooked for certain. I so want to play it again.
Same! ❤️❤️
@@tintaverse I love The Sims 2 so much, with all my heart
i mean you can’t deny that the sims 4 has the most complex, fleshed out cooking system which is so much fun to play. where they lose me is with those animations. i don’t understand why everything about that game has to be so damn cartoony and over the top
The Sims 2 has the best meal preparation in the series with only a few let downs as there’s no particles when pouring or chopping and the food in the mixing bowl doesn’t spin which both appear in the Sims 3.
We really took the sims 2 for granted. All the love and care they put in it and it showed!!! 😢
For Sims 4, I had to use a mod so my sims wouldn't be so over the top and showboaty when cooking.
Miss how the sims prepared food from the Sims 2. Never played 3, but it looks pretty impressive from what I've seen.
what mod is it plss

"Sims 4 has more options that affect nothing except the flavour text while having worse animations and graphics, as well as less actual gameplay" is a comment that's true for this video and virtually any other sims comparison video. With cows for some reason being the only exception
Sims 1 *while steering the pot*: “ouch”
Also sims 1 *holding a hot pan right off the stove*:🗿
The over exaggerated animations of the sims 4 will never not annoy me, my patience would not cope 😅 also the laziness of the whole oven animation 20:25 is outstandingly bad that it doesn’t match up where the rack just teleports back into the oven because they couldn’t be bothered to animate sims bending down. They cut lots of corners and it shows, which knowing sims 4 was intended to be a mobile game makes even more sense now that there’s no in-depth animations.
I’m sure the animators are good at what they do, but given the time constraints I imagine they had no choice but to cut said corners, yet with how much money this game has made EA, there’s no excuse for it really. I have major concerns for TS5 with all that in mind. Expect more corners to be cut. 😬
I’m definitely biased but Sims 3 is my personal favorite! Also being able to shop for ingredients is a great feature (even better if you get the nraaas mod that requires ingredients to be able to cook).
Who else gets kind of nervous when the TS4 sim spins that knife around?😅
You can also shop for groceries in the sims 2, you can even go inside the grocery shop!
I liked the sims 2 but the sims 3 had me in a chokehold! I didn’t like the sims 4 at first but once they fixed and expanded the game more I liked it. If they created open world for the sims 4, owning multiple properties and the color wheel, it would be the best sims game in my opinion.
The Sims 2 was chefs kiss . 🤌🏼
12:58 first thing this idiotic sim from sims 4 does is moan lmaooo i hate sims 4, my god, it sucks
Saaaammme the food in Sims 4 looks like Play-Doh.😂😂
lmfaooo same
i love when they're sitting there, doing nothing and then just burst out a fat moan because they're happy or w/e
the sims 2: sims really get the utensils from the kitchen cabinet
the sims 3 and 4: utensils magically appears in the sim's hand
I don't know why The Sims 4 always scream and laugh? Like a crazy psycho :(
I love the freaking logic of the first Sims: chop vegetables -> boil soup -> end result: steak and beans
Who the hell cooks like in Sims 4?
No one. Thats who 😂
People who want the spagghetti sauce spilled all over them...
@michaeljbowker9782challenge everything, including your normality
The garden salad in sims 4 gave me chills... for all the wrong reasons.
The veggies are prepared, why is she spinning the bowl like a maniac? It shouldn't take that long to mix prepared salad and put it on a plate 😭
The crazy laughing while cooking was pure cringe 😳😵💫
Only cooked for grilled cheese aspiration.
I always have a soft spot for Sims 3 cooking. It felt very realistic and I loved going to the grocery store and picking out ingredients and buying new recipes, or cooking a family member’s favorite for their birthday. It was the little things.
The Sims 4 is weird. I love the new cultural dishes and the variety but it still feels weirdly shallow. I think it’s the ways skills themselves work and the fact that I can’t set any kind of favorite or preference without sacrificing one of the only three traits you get. I feel like I can take different approaches to cooking in TS3 but weirdly don’t feel like I have as much flexibility in TS4 despite all of the new options.
Yeah I really want them to add food favorites as a favorite type. Having just one favorite was a bit weird in 3 (and you couldn't change it so a kid would have the same favorite their whole life) but it was still nice to have them recognize it and specifically get that bonus if you made it. Since there's so many foods maybe they can do do categories like they did with personality traits, like put everything that would have pork together so we can have halal or kosher sims. Also in 3 they were better at recognizing which foods were for what meal. Only the insane or childish sims would automatically eat cake for breakfast. Littlemisssam has a mod that improves it but it's annoying
Didn't they add a like/dislike System now? Where you can choose stuff like music they like colours sim traits....
@@keit99 Yes they did, so they just need to add it as a category. It's mostly pretty cool, they even have unique descriptions for the moodlets when someone likes or dislikes things. Right now we have color, decor, fashion, music, hobbies and skills, conversation topics and types of Sim (though we can't find those last two out for other sims yet)
Fun Fact: In the Sims 4, there are certain foods that can effect your sim's mood. For example: Heart cookies will make your sim flirty and gummy bear pancakes will make your sim playful.
And that'll be another $40, thank you ☝️🤓
0:47 i remember as a kid i didn't understand that you really need minimum 1 skill in cooking to avoid near guaranteed fire, and so i never bought my sim a stove. it wasn't until the game gave me a random tip that i can avoid nothing but salads if i have a stove that i realized what i had put my guy through
That ding of food being done in TS2 still gives me anxiety because half the time it meant my Sim burned the food or it was going to be a fire 😅
The familiar sounds of sims 1: ow! Ouch! Ow!
Sims 1 - больше резала себе пальцы, чем еду.
Sims 2 - супер проработка
Sims 3 - чуть лучше чем 2 часть, но торт подожгла не об жопу😂
Sims 4 - больше цирк, чем готовка (крутит, вертит)
Спасибо за видео ❤
Это точно 😂
This reminded me that the jump from sims 1 to 2 was astronomical. What a time.
detail : when your sim has fresh chef trait food will never spoil
16:10 A little mistake here , steam cooker was added in For Rent , not Home chef hustle
Yes! It got mixed up in my document ❤️❤️
I love cooking in all of the Sims series. I also love that you don’t put music in the video. I love hearing the actual sounds. It’s very ASMR ❤
the sims 1: good amount of detail especially for the time, real effort put in good prep, had the texture because of its time (2000)
the sims 2: most realistic meal preparation, detailed as hell, beautifully styled. a *20 year old* game
the sims 3: the most realistic looking textures at least to me, (the sims 3 art style and textures are a personal favourite.) less detail and realism of the food prep than sims 2. sims just pull a mixing bowl from their ass. it still looks good, at the sacrifice of some details. as of now this is an almost *15 year old* game. looks the best out of them all
the sims 4: unrealistic cooking prep, most foods look like they are being made the same way when using the cutting board and mixing bowl. it looks as though salt and pepper and tomatoes are cut up for every meal including desserts?? sims wave their hand for EVEN MORE things than ever before to just magically appear. the art style is revolting for a game of its time similar to claymation (claymation is fine, but not for this game) and both the sims 2 and 3 look much more realistic. the food textures are horrific, worst looking *so far* worse than a child's playdough sculpture. overall lacking real depth, the cooking feature, as well as the sims 4 as a whole, is the worst out of the 4. the other games look and feel like care was put into them. the sims 4 feels soulless.
Hey Mole! I wanted to talk to you for days now. Have you not been home?
Also what do you mean the sims 4 is the worst?? It has juggling knives!! Isn't that realistic when prepping your play-doh breakfast?
@@ember9361That’s Mole2 😂 And he has been home, just busy practising his ballet 🤣
With as many times as sims cut their fingers when cooking im suprised theyre still always glued together
TS1 : serious cook
TS2 : professional cook
TS3 : magician
TS4 : clown with every second laughing
2:01 me asf waiting for my food to heat 😭
The oly meal with a unique effect in sims 3 is ambrosia, it will always be "glowing" a hazy glow when its done not sure why this dish the the only one unique
Didn't ambrosia revive ghosts that eat it? Or am I mistaken?
@@ChXris yes it does
@@ChXrisIf I recall correctly, ambrosia also resets the age bar of the current life stage the sim was in. If a living sim ate it, the age bar would just reset. If a ghost ate it, they’d be revived and the age bar would reset.
I loved cooking in the Sims games! Well made video. All those shots must’ve taken a while to angle. Great work
Thank you so much dear! It really was time consuming ❤️❤️❤️
The Sims laughing when cooking look so evil in The Sims3 and The Sims4...
sims 4 is like “oooo imma spin the bowl while i stir
I personally really love the attention to detail in Sims 2 where Sims if they have available space under the counter (for example if there is no dishwasher and such) that they take the utensils and bowls from there ... and this is just for cooking, I remember that even interaction with a car was more in detail. For Example if you bought the cheapest piece of garbage your sim would have troubles closing the door for example or starting the engine .. I really hated when they completely got rid of these animations in Sims 3 and instead car just teleported to the street and sim teleported into it
I love The Sims 2. I never played it. From what I can see, the animations had a lot of time and effort put into. I love how she sets the table properly. I can't find it on steam. I only have The Sims 4 and I wish it had all of these features.
Did you check my comment on the pizza one? 🤣
you can get the sims 2 for free! google osab's starter pack :)
Her evil laughing in sims 4 when she teleported the item made me bust up laughing 😂
The sound of sims 1 flies lives forever rent free in my head.
I can hear a lot of "Ow"s and "Ouch"s in the first Sims game while the sim is cooking.
I love how none of them ever used a glove/mitten to take out the food from the piping hot oven 😂
That's what I was thinking, they just go and take so casually
Sims1,2,3:um...yummy
Sims4:Please do not play the food😂
I rlly like your content, its so comforting watching your comparaison videos on a hot summer day!
I like the variety of foods in ts4 but I gotta give this one to ts2
Sims 2 and you can expand your menu with cc which I have .
Yeah
13:47 that laugh sounds likes Harley Quinn
I hate how extravagant sims 4 was. When i miss play sims 4 i will just remember they have terrible cooking animation
I love the Sims 2. The amount of detail they put into the graphics and animations is the gold standard for the series.
This is my Score of all sims games:
Sims 1: 9.0/10
Sims 2: 9.1/10
Sims 3: 8.9/10

How is sims 1 better than sims 3?
@@EdwardSmith-gs1xg I know that the third game is incredible, but in my opinion, Sims 2 is better and if I say that Sims 1 got a 9.0 it is because it is a masterpiece that revolutionized the genre.

I absolutely HATE that the Sims4 animations are so cartoony and exaggerated
Its like theyre trying SO HARD to go the Disney route and appeal to little kids
Lo único bueno de los sims4 es que hay muchísima mas variedad de platos a preparar respecto a otros juegos de la saga.
Even in cooking sims 4 is bugged😂😂
Sims 4 karakteri yemek yaparken deli deli hareketler yapıp kendi kendine gülüyor
I will always be a sucker for sims 1. Its the nostalgia of the early 2000s
Sims 2 was made with love and it shows in every single video
Cooking in the Sims 1 was a death wish unless you'd put at least 2 skill points into cooking immediately after starting your household
So many memories of hours upon hours playing all of these
Sims 1: gets hurt all the time
Sims 2: very robotic/quiet
Sims 3: realistic/what humans do
Sims 4: *just dance* *mess around* *circus show* *play with the food*
sims 4 girlie didnt need to be doing all that c'mon now..
also the constant clashing of the knives...
It's annoying how Sims 4 cooking is full of animation glitches that they never bother to fix, yet keep introducing new recipes...
Sims 2 is hand's down the best.
Will no one notice how cute Sim is waiting for food while looking at the microwave? I also looked in when I was a child when I came home from school.
2:21 Id like to think they pray since there is a brief pause before the sims eat, just a little detail not found in the other sims
would they be praying to the player since they’re the creator of the world?
The sims 4 reminds me of my adhd brother
