And yet I somehow have a very nagging feeling that they screw it up somehow. Either some expansions missing, lincensed content packs (like the Ikea one) not available or some financial decision that will bleed any fan dry more than anything.

They gave people who could prove they had Sims 2 the Ultimate Collection on Origin and... you are correct. It was missing content. I see no reason that it won't still be true.

Heck, for The Sims 1 there was a ton of official stuff that you had to download from Maxis's website. Some of it is lost media.

Wow, fun. 3 had so many improvements over 2, but some things that were so fun about 2 got left behind in 3 as well.

Well, that's good, because I don't have an analog PC.
