Hey everyone, I know almost nothing about The Sims series, but it keeps popping up in my feed all the time, so I finally decided to give it a try. I bought Sims 2 with all the expansions, installed everything, and now I’m sitting at the main menu. I’ve heard that the game doesn’t really have a clear “goal.” So I’m curious — what do people actually do in it besides just watching your family live their lives? And most importantly — how should I start to get the best possible first experience?
