Still planing with TS2 anyone ?

Although I was rather disgusted with TS2's glitches a while back; I am a much more tolerant person now, so yes, I still play it.
I am also still playing TS1, which I have never been able to uninstall. There's just something about it. Probably the music that came with Makin' Magic, along with the mist-filled village and the glorious, moon-swept fields…and the strange noises that can be heard at night…the butter churn…the autumn foliage… I better quit there.
Yes! The atmosphere in Makin' Magic was so eerie and actually felt a bit magical. TS2 and TS3 failed epically on that.

I concur.
If there was ever a time when I truly longed to fall through my computer screen, it had to be when I was playing Makin' Magic.
WA had such potential. But what does EA create? Three huge, redundant, memory-sucking neighborhoods that have no cultural appeal or lasting satisfaction. Yet a little town in Makin' Magic practically oozed sensation and character.
Quality, where are you now?

I still can't get past the doughy, boneless look of the TS3 Sims. I don't have it and can't run it on my computer, but I have not experienced overwhelming sadness about not having it.
The thing I miss most from TS1 is the gnome-making bench (and the gargoyle-making bench, I suppose). One of my favorite things to do was to make them make gnomes until they were in multiple motive failure, then let them eat, pee, and nap, then back out to more gnomes until they were in multiple motive failure, and after a couple of days, when you let them sleep, they'd have nightmares about making gnomes, and wake up with little "gnome" thought bubbles.

One of the few reasons I'd consider going back to Sims 1 is the Makin' Magic stuff.
But, yeah, lack of genetics is another big reason for avoiding the S3. I like it when somebody's red hair pops up 3 generations down the line in an otherwise black-haired family. That and the no personalities thing. Quirks do not equate to personality. All they seem to be is Stupid Sim trick generators.
Assmitten:
Well, Mr. Jolrei beat me to the...well, beatings, but I did want to say that I am installing ALL of TS2 right NOW. I have never had all of them before. I have not played in 18+ months. This is like Christmas but without Uncle Fritz passing out in a ditch somewhere.
