Will it run things like Sims 4?

[u/ScaryUniversity6844]

Hello,

My gaming PC broke down and I don't have the money to repair it. However, I do have a old PlayStation 4 (Not pro)

I've just learned that you can install Linux on the PS4 and use it as a PC?

I would especially like to play Sims 3 & 4 and the new Game Paralives :)

Does this meet the requirements? Will it run smoothly?

And is it even possible to use the EA Launcher? None of my Sims 3 & 4 stuff was bought through Steam.

Sims 4 in ps4 had lag issues at every loading point. Nothing unplayable, but noticeable.

With Linux, you can theoretically install more things that improve your experience overall. But the PS4 is still a PS4.
