After buying the Legacy Collection edition of The Sims, I think I finally figured out why I can't seem to get into the other Sims games.

It's the aesthetic.

All of the games' aesthetics suit the times in which they were released. Because of that, the original game has a late 90s/Y2K aesthetic to it that appeals to so many of us in the retro games community.

It's like a charming final snapshot of American life before the 21st century.
