The charming basket appears in the Sims: Makin' Magic and Sims 3: World Adventures. Snake charming was a secret skill in world adventures. It's possible that it's an Easter egg for an upcoming pack or it could just be maxis being maxis and messing with us.
As a Malaysian, just a note that squat toilets are not commonly found in homes nowadays, so take that into account when building. Mostly they are found in public buildings or rural areas, eg if you stop at a gas station toilet along the highway while travelling interstate, or if you visit say, a mall or office building (but if so, usually mall toilets or whatever will have one or two squat toilet stalls and the rest will be sit toilets).
yea in turkey we had them everywhere back then but nowadays new buildings usually dont have squat toilets but in my home we have one squat toilet on its own and one normal toilet at the bathroom and honestly it is so useful especially when the one is taken
curious that while being more common in Asia, the first one I ever saw was in a gas station at France around the 1980s-1990s, in Japan there are still plenty of those, even in not so old-buildings, but houses do have either normal ones or the fancy bidet ones.
@@MERDADEGPLUS Think it depends. We had squat toilets but had to convert them to sit ones for my grandfather when he got older and was unable to physically use them.
Honestly, the mysterious basket seems like another Maxis prank. If even the all-knowing Petey of Sims guides doesn't know, it has got to be a prank right? XD I've always said EA is evil but Maxis is mischievous! They prank their own players quite a bit 🤣...rather than ruining their players' lives as EA does.
Squat toilets are something I tried once and I felt absolutely ridiculous. I had no balance so I'm using my hands on the floor to hold me steady and I'm looking around the room and I realize that I look like my dog, squatting outa poop while looking around my surroundings 😂
Those toilets are god sends for us women after giving birth who cant sit on a toilet seat after giving birth lol I wish I had one after I had my baby lol
Whaaaat? Does that mean that you usually sit on public toilets? I never touch them public toilets with my butt, no matter how clean they are 😂 Unless you are a man, in that case you won't have any problems because you can do it standing lol Btw I am from Italy, we have both kinds of toilets here
Unfortunately the pressure cooker's meals have to be paid outright, instead of using ingredients to lower their cost. I hope we get a future patch where the recipes can be made with the right ingredients. That would make for a rental off the grid challenge somewhat interesting.
Also fresh chef perk to keep food made by perk holder from spoiling, doesn't seem to work for food made in new cooker. hopefully this will get addressed in a patch as well
About the radiators if you got the Vampire pack the old radiator also works and can be synched witth seasons thermostat. I don't have For Rent yet and maybe best untill they fix the bugs (hopefully)
Since I got the For Rent Expansion pack, I got most of the items in this video like the kettle, pressure cooker, squat toilet, Tibert the Tiger, Tiger Inspector Badge, Tassels, Air Conditioner, Radiator, Mysterious Basket, & Sugarcane Juice Tray. I never know there was an option you can drink the unicorn galaxy tea that can make sims playful, I’ll try that for later hehehe. And yes, I’m also struggling to find out what to put on the mysterious basket as well 😅. My most favorite item from the pack was Tibert the Tiger, I can’t stop patting Tibert because I find it so cute 🥰
You can also get an Uncomfortable moodlet. Something about achy thighs or inability to balance. I wonder if it's trait based or related to fitness stkill?
thank you so much for this video! I knew that all these items existed but I definitely learned about some new gameplay that I will definitely be trying soon. your videos always teach me something new about this game that I've been playing for years haha 😄
@@JhinJhin365 I was rather hoping like in real life. when the lid goes through the range hood into the ceiling and the pot puts a gaping whole in the surface. 😂
Radiators, I like it. As someone living in the Netherlands I was really missing these items that come with the house here when you move in. And that you can connect them to the Seasons thermostat is even better - and realistic. But squat toilets? I've never seen those before. And never thought they exist in the first place. Theyre...interesting, I'll give them that. The only place I would do my squats though would be at the gym, but with pants on - as was recommended to do so.
Squat toilets can be found in Italy too, especially in places like the pool or the beach. However you will never find them in a house, only in public places
There are two issues with the pressure cooker that are deal breakers for me. One is that it's unnecessary. You can cook the same dishes on the stove. With its very small range of meal options, this isn't all that useful. Worse is that food made in the pressure cooker is unaffected by the Fresh Chef Trait. Even if you have that Trait, food made in the pressure cooker will still spoil. I've tried the device. I wasn't impressed and I don't use it in any house. I would rather cook the meals on a stove and have leftovers last indefinitely.
@@loppydoodle726 There aren't any interactable snakes yet in Sims 4. Some environmental ones in specific worlds, but nothing you can pick up or put anywhere. Maybe the basket/promo is a hint that they're going to add snakes soon?
as an asian.. quat toilets is been use everyday... and instead toilet paper.. we clean with water... so same in reverse.. i kind not sure how to use sit toilet and toilet paper >.

That's so interesting! As someone who's only lived/traveled in the Americas and Europe, I've never seen a real squat toilet! I find it fascinating that such a common thing is so different for different cultures - and it's really cool that The Sims is making more of a dedicated effort towards representing more cultures in the game!

Yeah i wonder what this masterious basket is going to be used for or is being used for? ! The sims never shake the basket ever so how is it possible to shake it.?! Very very Curious!!?!!
I remember commenting on this video about a sim that was in the marbles part But both the comment and the sim are gone now That or I’m on the wrong video 😅
Its a summonable familiar a sorcerer sim can get from the respective magic item- I think either duelling the sages for artifacts or buying one in the magic market

The water heater can also be scaled down to be a one tile object and placed higher on the wall and it still works

Ooh thank you for sharing this interesting info :)
@@espeon9466yeah I was wondering how the elderly managed to use them
1:48 It's so cute when you say "nom nom nom", I replayed it like 10 times 😂💚
Same haha 😂
I love this series. There's so much in the game, but I always seem to forget them or never find them because of it. This helps.

That's what I was thinking lol! If Petey doesn't know then it has to be a joke lol
Really? Ruining their lives? That must be a 'first world' problem.....

@@DREAMINDIGO no. I never said that. you're extrapolating
@@shayne87 so how do you use sitting public toilets?

Squat toilet was easy because they already had the squat to pee animation from werewolves.
Not the same animation. Werewolves lean over farther with one hand on the ground.

It looks so cute, I'll buy the pack for the Tiger.....
I love these videos- they teach me so much about every pack. Happy holidays!
Using the squat toilet will give your sim from time to time a positive moodlet. I think it’s energized.
You can also get an Uncomfortable moodlet. Something about achy thighs or inability to balance. I wonder if it's trait based or related to fitness stkill?
@@TheInsaneVane thinking about it my sim had the „child of the village“ trait…maybe that’s why she never got uncomfortable?
thank you so much for this video! I knew that all these items existed but I definitely learned about some new gameplay that I will definitely be trying soon. your videos always teach me something new about this game that I've been playing for years haha 😄
thank you for the kind comment :)
So the mysterious basket is still a mystery? Go figure. 😆😆
Gren! :) Haha very much still a mystery... I am so curious!!
You are by far the most helpful SIMS4 channel. ❤ Do you have a creator code we can use to support you when purchasing packs?
Awe shucks thank you KM, that is so kind of you for asking and I am so appreciative! :) Sadly though I don't have a creator code or anything.
Awww. That's too bad!
HSM’s Bop to the top supremacy, I’m glad I stan a man with good taste
Thank you always for your videos. I love finding out what other things are good in packs.
What I love about the kettles as well is sims don't autonomously make drinks over and over, unlike the base game tea maker
I love and appreciate your videos.!
1:03 I had that coffee filter thing that she had on top of the cup, someone pinched mine.
1:25 I wonder if it can explode 😂
It can explode. A sim guru posted it. The steam just burns. Nothing major happens.

The tassels went in the basket for me.
Pressure cookers food recipe are from Indonesia & Malaysia, its called Nasi Lemak 👏
Anybody else refuse to give their sims coffee/tea machines because they always leave the mugs all over the house? 😂
When i use the tea machine my sim wont stop drinking them until the pot is empty. one right after another
@@AmyMinckler 😂😂😂😂
OMG yes!!!! Lol
I love these videos!
I like the Japanese home shown in the Tiger Inspector Badge. I wish I could find that house.

For the basket, can a snake go in it? Like the snake charmer in the promo video?
How do you get a snake? I would love to get a snake

Thank you for this! ❤
Thank you for the kind words :)
OMg I can use the water heater and fuse box to garages and give all my lots more real game play!
Thanks for sharing ❤
Maybe the basket will be useful in a future pack? You know, you can only use it if you have both?
They dont do that in the sims 4
@@reading1713 Yes they do, you can only use the first pet stuff pack if you have the cats and dogs pack....

You mean is used everyday

Did you try feeding it the hamster?

But both the comment and the sim are gone now
That or I’m on the wrong video 😅
RUclips deletes comments.
If the basket makes noise when you shake it and you put objects in it only for them to disappear…I think the basket is alive!! And it’s HUNGRY!
What's the little green bat thing following your sim at 5:50?
Its a summonable familiar a sorcerer sim can get from the respective magic item- I think either duelling the sages for artifacts or buying one in the magic market
squat toilets scare me
Hot cocoa is pronounced coco.
Oops! Sorry about that!
@@PeteyPlaysIt no worries just thought id mention it
I think the pronunciation depends on where you are from. Vowels shift and change in different languages and different accents
