    No one told me life was gonna be this way. Talented The Sims 4 custom content creator IanRoach has duplicated a series of familiar sitcom settings using EA Maxis' life sim franchise as his canvas. Search for Origin user "ian8000" in The Sims 4's Gallery feature and you'll find a faithful recreation of Jerry's apartment from the '90s comedy series Seinfeld, letting you reenact your favorite nihilistic moments with pre-created doppelgängers of Jerry, Kramer, George, and Elaine. Friends fans, meanwhile, can download the show's full cast and five locations ripped straight from the series, including Monica and Rachel's apartment, Joey and Chandler's apartment, Ross's apartment, Phoebe's apartment, and coffee house Central Perk. If the screenshots here and here leave you speechless, don't worry -- I'll be there for you (like I've been there before). IanRoach has also created environments inspired by Arrested Development and The Golden Girls, if you're interested (hint: you are). [Image: EA Maxis / IanRoach]
