EA and Maxis have finally released The Sims 2 on PC, ending years of speculation about its return to digital stores. However, the game’s launch has been marred by technical issues, including frequent crashes, leaving many fans disappointed.
The new version of The Sims 2 boasts compatibility with Windows 10 and 11, as well as various technical improvements like widescreen and high-resolution support. Despite these enhancements, critics point to the numerous crashes experienced by players, which have been prevalent across multiple platforms.
While some users may not be affected by the crashes, the issue has become a common thread in both negative reviews on Steam and social media reports. The game’s poor performance is particularly disappointing for fans of the classic Sims series, which are considered two of the most influential games ever made.
EA and Maxis have acknowledged the technical issues and hope to address them with future updates. For now, gamers can expect some teething problems as they enjoy their beloved gameplay experience once again.
