That way, there's no wear-and-tear or danger of disk loss, and I can install the game on machines that don't have an optical drive, but I can also show that I do legally own the game.

I made ISO backups of all my disks, and I have several copies of those ISOs in different places and, in fact, in two different US states, and that's what I use to install/reinstall if I have to do that. I'm just not really a fan of most digital delivery systems or the fact that they're now used as DRM, like Origin is in both senses. In fact, my opinion on them has always been that they are too vulnerable to loss and damage, like any other physical recording medium, and I think digital is a much better format, generally speaking. I don't have any particular fondness for disks even though I, too, am old. I don't use the UC mostly because, since I DO have Origin and have to keep it on this machine, I want no possibility of EA being able to get its grubby fingers into my TS2 game, so I don't want my game linked in any way to Origin. Unless of course you have other games that are dependent on it.

So really, all you need it for is to download and install the game and then you can uninstall Origin, if you want. But also? You can use a certain method to get around running Origin when you load/play the UC, anyway. That said, not everyone has the luxury of having a dedicated-to-Simming machine or good network/internet security, so that's certainly a consideration. It says nothing excessively private about me and probably a good chunk of it is fake. So, they can have that data all they want. And I have good network/internet security in general that comes at a pretty steep price. It's internet-connected, but all I do on it is play Sims games and visit non-sensitive websites like Sims forums.
It can collect all the data it wants off this machine.
I'm not exactly happy about it, but I'm also not very concerned. Ideally, I'd like to copy over my old 'hood and downloads that I saved from my old game, but if that's not advisable, then, c'est la vie. The processor is Intel Core i7-7700 (3.6ghz). My new computer runs Windows 10, and the graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti. I know there are issues with TS2 and newer computers, so I was wondering, is it easier/quicker/less likely to give me a nervous breakdown to reinstall using disks, or would it be better to download UC? Or does it not make a difference? I'm fully resigned to the fact that I'll no doubt have to do some amount of dicking around to get it to work again, but I just wondered if one method was better than the other. I still have all my original disks, and I also have the Ultimate Collection in my Origin library. However, in that time, I've bought a new computer, so I'm looking at a complete reinstall. So I've been having a Sim-break for two years now, and I've finally decided I want to play again.
Advice needed please - disks or Ultimate Collection?
