The Sims 2 was the best version of the game...

However, last time I tried to play it with all DLC, on a computer made in 2018, it took over 2 hours to load.

Will that still be an issue?

Nope! It'll probably just crash or something instead

Unlikely. I tried it with all expansions a few years ago (back when EA released it for free) and loading times were "only" a few minutes.

Did you have a bazillion mods installed? What kind of hardware were you using?

Did you have an SSD? Was the game and DLC installed on said SSD? Do you have one now if you didn't before? This may be the difference between 2 hours and only 1.

I dont think my wife was using mods. I don't know what her hardware was either, but I believe the computer came from ibuypower.
