    Thanks for the heads up! Both my favorite ladies love The Sims, and I've been looking for a reason to build a PC for the littler of the two.

    While the game is fun and addicting I write a lot and use the character creator to make the characters in my stories while I learn Daz3D studio. So anyone who creates worlds or stories, the character creator is super robust and the genetics feature is crazy. I made one character, then made his parents from him, and then his four sisters from them. Awesome stuff.

    Just a heads up for the other Linux tildeans here, installing it through Lutris worked perfectly here on my Arch system.

    Thanks for the heads up on this! I apparently have an EA account, which is weird. I don't own a PC, just a Mac, so there's like three games that I can play on Origin, but if one of them is free then heck yeah I will give it a shot.

        I'm having a blast with the Sims 4, so it's no big deal! I haven't played since Sims 1 and I'm glad to see that the people don't pee their pants as often. It was a bit out of hand on the original game.

    Thanks for the heads-up about this, I enjoyed the previous two iterations of the game but hadn't tried 4 yet.
