The Sims 2 introduces a new aspect into the game: Aspiration. The Sims Body Shop, a tool which allows a user to design a Sim's body, clothing, genetic features, etc., was available before the game's release. The graphics and house design engines have improved with more choices for houses, neighborhood design, food and clothes. In addition of taking place in a fully 3D environment, Aspirations of a selected Sim are also available for view, indicating the Sim's "Wants" and "Fears". Good and bad experiences are kept as memories and can affect the Sim's behaviour.Īn in-game screenshot of The Sims 2. Other unique events such as deaths, birthdays and a first kiss also take place in a Sim's lifetime. Sims are pregnant before having children (unlike in the previous version, where children just appeared). In this installment of the series, Sims can have more realistic marriages with engagements and parties. As Sims age, get married and have children, these relationships are recorded in an extensive family tree. Family relationships are much more integral to this version of the Sims than the previous version. Sims age through 6 unique stages: baby, toddler, child, teen, adult and elder (although another stage, 'young adult', was added with the University expansion pack).
