The Sims 4 is straight up theft imo. Been waiting for an alternative for years because I refuse to buy any of EA's crap any more.

Depending on how you feel about sailing, there's some decent "third party acquisition options" for the sims 4 that work with the official stores. I have the complete collection on steam, didn't pay a dime.

How do you mean? I know it's pretty standard to pirate the Sims games because of their dlc costs, but I don't know any way to get it legally and on steam.

I didn't suggest legal; I said "third party".

"anadius (dot) su" has unlockers for the sims 4 DLC and an updater app to download it. Obviously downloading copyrighted material over clearweb is risky, use a VPN or at the absolute least some kind of proxy.
