I personally love being able to watch your streams on RUclips because I end up missing the actual stream on Twitch all the time due to work. So it's nice to be able to catch up.
So happy you already uploaded this! I missed the live version. Also, poor simsie. Always doing het absolute best to word things perfectly and minutes in someone is already coming at her because they misunderstood. I don't understand how tho. Simsie explained it so well. It's not her job to make sure everyone understands. That's thousands of people. She does try tho 💕
some ppl purposely misunderstand things to try and start drama and get reactions out of others, which is very childish. i really enjoyed her stream but ppl’s outlandish comments are so frustrating.
I think it’s the people that are chronically online that do that, because they’re used to discourse, like the shit show that happens in Twitter. It ends up becoming second nature to them. It’s really sad, because they bring this behaviour offline too, and dealing with this kind of people makes life hell.
I love, love, love the build mode of the pack. A LOT of it reminds me of Brazilian homes (even though it's not inspired by Brazil... Cough cough EA... We need a Brazil inspired world) and it'll be easier the build realistic Brazilian houses with this, even this is not meant to be Brazil representation it kinda is? Brazil has such a mix of cultures. Anyways, I'm happy this pack exists and sad that my PC is broken and I can't play with it
For Rent reminds me of Seasons in that it comes with a huge gameplay feature that is useable in every world, and Seasons didn't come with a new world at all so I can see why Tomarang is on the smaller side. I kind of wish it was designed better though. Like if it's going to be small then the lots should be less spread out, or something like the tiger sanctuary should've been an actual building with the rabbit hole inside of it, instead of the whole thing being a rabbit hole. I can imagine they got overwhelmed getting the renting feature to work and unfortunately the world suffered because of that. I also feel like people who don't like to build will get less out of this pack than they do out of seasons and holidays. For me, Horse Ranch wasn't worth $40 because I don't care about horses, but it is for people who have been waiting for that feature, because the bigger scope meant it got the proper care that it needed. I just waited and bought it on sale to access the features I was interested in.
I agree, for me the only sims pack I bought full price is snowy escape, I think it wasn't worth the $40 price. I barely go on vacation and I use the world has an dating activity but gameplay wise it lacks compared to this pack. For rent really changed the world of sims. Lucky for me other game packs I just bought this black Friday was 15.99 and with all honesty if I would've bought them full price I would've cried. It's really hard resisting the temptation of buying this pack right now.
For Rent seems to be inspired by Asia which explains why the lounge is opened air. A lot of public spaces are opened aired especially with the street markets.I personally like that's opened like that, if I end up buying this pack, I will make an opened air build.
@@chewlizabeth I know, I just like the opening for it, i'm just saying i personally wouldn't change it and deal with the lighting issues to keep it authentic
I think this would work really well with some of the archways in game instead of spandrels. Plus open air windows and stuff. That way the lighting won’t glitch but it still has the same vibe.
Seems like the Tamarang (sp?) Aspiration would have been better as a scenario. Also i'm so happy we can opt out of mold. It was giving me the heebie jeebies 😂
EXACTLY! 😭 Like you can't wait for it to be rent time, and to be forced to pay it and be more broke?... 💀 YEAH, no weird af. 😩 Even when you say for for rent... Yea no, weird ass vibes 😂
Pesonally, my favorite packs are Cottage Living and Werewolves, largely because there are distinct characters, and really unique things to learn about both the world and the people in the world. This pack having such a foucs on snooping, I was really excited that it would be similar, but it feels like Tartosa instead - it's a beautiful world, and you can learn little factoids about the people occasionally, but there's no depth or characters who I'm going to remember for a long time.
Also lets all thank little Simsie for post this video for us since she got early access to do so. So ty to Litte Simsie for posting this video for us to see. 👍✌ Nice build she made too. 👍💫
Thanks for sharing this! I love that you're more positive. It saddens me how there's soo much criticism of the sims lately. I've grown up visiting this game throughout my life and it's always brought me joy. ❤
I feel the same way that's the reason why I follow her is because how positive she is and honest about the sims than other RUclipsrs. Like how can you hate a game so much that you play all the time. It makes no sense to me.
Oo just saw your review vid (you're always the first review I watch as you are always fair with it) and had to go look for the stream, might have to watch it in parts, 4 hours is a long time, but excited to watch you play! 🥳🥳🥰 Edit: Oo yay I love watching advent calendar opening, and I don't always find time to watch your streams cos of timezone differences lol, you stream when I game or meet up with my friends of an evening lol, and then I hardly ever have the time to watch them after!

Plus you did go over it nicely in your review vid and the Livestream covered it well too, apart from you showed us the cute female hair I don't think they did lol! I always get confused when people say it isn't an expansion either, a lot have said about Horse Ranch too, and I don't get it with that either, I didn't cover all the gameplay, but I had to get back to my legacy family, and I'm itching to get back to it....but now there's apartments lol I try not to think about all the money I've spent over the 22 years of playing lol, but I'm sure its a lot lol! That being said DDV is there with it's at least £40.00 game and now an expansion for £20.00 so gaming is just expensive, I'm grateful for Gamepass that supplements the cost of a lot of games I want to play lol! Oo loving where this build is going! 😍 I haven't put my mods back in since Horse Ranch as I haven't needed to find any of my Sims graves or get the teen events to work properly, I am tempted to get MCCC to help me do more things though but I keep wanting to get the most updated version and then I forget or they realise a new expansion...

Cringe being playing video games, rude lol! But yay for being immune to hystericalness lol! 😆 Hold on microwaving water? Why lol? Milk I can understand, I do my mochas via the microwave lol, but just water....bleurgh lol! I just drink filtered water from my water filter in the fridge. I do love that kettle, just like I have at home lol! Was hot cocoa with marshmallows a thing already in game...never seen it before lol! 🤔 I really enjoyed watching the whole stream, but the last hour and a half of it, I watched when I had a migraine so was unable to comment about it in full but I loved seeing the new expansion up close! Cannot wait to play with it tomorrow! Thanks for sharing so much! 🥳🥰 I have seen another stream uploaded but I may not watch it all so I get some surprises for after work tomorrow! 😊🥰
i cant exactly think of why but this ep really feels more like a stuff pack. like it’s something id want to use in all of my gameplay like seasons (cant think of any other oops) but it feels more adjacent to tiny living even with the new world and multiple aspirations. also yeah, the aspirations have started to get kinda odd cos like why is using a toilet three times part of a milestone?? and why do they act more like tutorials than anything else? overall id love to have this pack for the rental stuff (plus the kettle and other build/buy) but for the price that it is?? no way
@@sophiag612 i guess that makes it easier for new players too but i kinda wish they didn’t?? (or at least had a better mix of tutorial and normal fun gameplay)
@@deniedred I think they should focus it maybe on one a pack, instead of it being all 3. But honestly, the old system was fine to me. The first level is gaining skills and introductory and then it gets more difficult.
@@sophiag612 yeah i honestly really like the base game aspirations (for the most part) i like the build up it makes sense as a life long goal for the sim
@@deniedredMe too. For the most part it takes sims at least 2 life stages for me to complete them. They don’t match TS3 aspirations (those were soooo hard) but they can be pretty difficult and I like that!
It introduces a whole new career, and a large one at that. You don’t have to be a builder to enjoy this. You can download builds or use the preexisting apartments that are with the world.
To me, the gameplay of the pack doesn’t warrant it being an expansion… The features & world feel pretty lackluster to warrant the high price point. Most of the aspirations are lazy, the rabbit holes, and buy mode lack of thought/swatches. The multi-unit lots are really giving the build mode changes that Tiny Living (a … stuff pack) gave. I’d rather the sims team have given us the multi-unit lots in a stuff or gamepack and saved this world for a future pack until they could’ve fleshed it out better.
1:58:08 My mom actually cooks water and drinks it. Apparently it's supposed to be healthy... even if it is, I'll stick to tea thank you :'D That is *COOKING* it though, I can get behind that. Microwaving it just feels wrong on so many levels.
23:52 I've been waiting for this pack to come out because I was thinking of building a tiny home trailer park. You know like make 30 tile micro homes on like a 30x20 lot. And then they look like little huts that can be rented out. I've been wanting to do that ever since I saw the pack trailer. But that's one thing I haven't seen any creator on RUclips do. I've seen separated townhomes and duplexes and container homes, but how cute would it be if you built two or three lots next to each other with three micro homes on each lot? It would look like a tiny home park. And I was thinking of doing them in different themes, like three log cabins or three contemporary style bills, or three beach houses or yurts, and then just have the three homes connect with like a foot path or something. I think that would be so interesting
It makes sense. A penthouse is, by definition, a single apartment that takes up the whole top floor of a building...thus making it essentially a house. If it is split up into more apartments, then it isn't a penthouse. Then you get to the actual coding, and that lot type is unique. That's like asking for a retail lot to be apartments, or a vet clinic to be apartments.
I was tempted to buy a Lego advent calendar, but it was so hard to choose, and then Usborne released another book advent calendar which OBVIOUSLY I had to buy...
rofl, 'fortnite is still big, honey'....oh, no... *honey*, it really isn't. It's barely still big with the 12 year olds. Poor Simsie, getting shit on by her own chat...who are clueless about how cringe Fortnite always has been and will be, lmao! What a clueless moment from that twitch chatter, lmao! Embarrassing for them. And I can't wait to see more 'void sims' - Steven Pawn is obviously Stephen King. xD (And I love the Boulder! HA!)
I’m going to be getting the Sims 4 soon and I’m planning to get both Seasons and Growing Together around then. If I decide to buy one first and then get the other one later, which one of those two do you think I should get first?
Seasons affects every save with no effort on your part. It also comes with a full set of doors and windows. Growing together will affect you if you play with families/ want a new world to play in. Cats and dogs is another EP that has some major gameplay to it in the form of small pets. It will affect every save but you have a bit of control over how much you want it to affect you. This one also has a new world. I know you only asked about the first two but I personally love cats and dogs so wanted to throw it out if you've ever thought of getting it.
Does lilsimsie get a discount or does she actually pay full price like we do? 🤣 cause it is really expensive to be a simmer especially in this economy 🤣🤣🤣💀
@GoldenShadows yeah I suppose so. But now if you put lilsimsie in your purchase she also gets part of your purchase. I just wonder with early access and also collaborating if she would get some sort of discount. Either way it’s still alot to get packs whether she pays or not. Not that this specific one isn’t a great pack.
@@jlpkbrb1086This isn’t true. Creators get the packs for free. I specifically remember when the sims stopped sending LGR the sims games for free probably due to his honest reviews.
The world looks nice but the price is NOT Also, the fact that we only get ONE neiborhood and 1 or 2 lots, just does NOT seem WORTH the crazy buying price of this exspansion pack either to be honest. But again the world looks nice. And of course EA built the world and the one appartment place who else would ?? Lol. Also I think this pack would be somethieng that some builders would proably like. Just a guess though. 👍✌
There are two neighborhoods in the world, not one. The builds are by the Maxis team, not EA. It's priced the same as every other expansion pack - did you expect that the price of the packs would go lower or something? I mean, people employed by Maxis have to eat and often pay their rents as well. The team is working on the packs for months and then people assume that they should work for free, smh. There are games with much higher prices for the expansion packs. It may not be worth it for you but "screaming" in caps the ultimate judgements about the price is ridiculous.
“People who work at maxis have to eat and often pay their rents as well” LMAO. You are brainwashed to believe that they are not price gouging. It’s just a fact that sims dlc over time have been less fleshed out with less and less content.
@@sophiag612 Oh yeah, "I'm brainwashed" to believe that people have to eat and they shouldn't be paid peanuts for months of work. Meanwhile you're repeating the same worn-out catchphrases like a parrot, clearly knowing nothing about coding and looking through rose-colored sunglasses at the older content. Hate the new packs? Vote with your wallet and don't buy it. Simple as that. No one is holding a gun to your head and making you buy it.
Oh come on now, this expansion is not massive. There's hardly any gameplay even assuming that the barebones system of renting actually works and isn't buggy. The world is completely empty. EA has consistently done game pack worthy content and called it an expansion.
I will forever pirate sims content because it’s ridiculous how little comes in this pack. I understand that a lot comes in the pack, but there is barely anything to actually do. The world is tiny and has nothing to it. The building tool is cool but…that’s about it.
I mean, I never condone pirating (unless its from Nintendo), but if you aren't a builder and don't find enough value in basement suites, townhomes, duplexes, etc. as well as having options beyond the absolute garbage and just terribly unrealistic and boring EL and CL apartments then that's your opinion and you're allowed to hold it. like I will agree, this is like 60% a build pack and 40% a gameplay pack. However, I think that this is something that you shouldn't pirate. I think piracy is disgusting, you are stealing from harding working people who spent many hours pouring their hearts into these packs and games. I know you may think its just a scam and I know EA sucks but pirating hurting the creators of content a lot because EA will see lower sales numbers from packs and so they will give the sims team less money which means future packs will be worse quality AND future sims games will be bad.
it really does annoy me when people say “it’s a game pack with expansion price” specially when it comes with literally game altering systems… yes the world is small everything else sort of explains it though.. people think the new build system could be made with gane pack budget 😅😅 same thing with horses, like do people seriously think that the development of HORSES from scratch isn’t hard, time consuming and that it needs the biggest budget they have?? like 😂
Having game altering systems shouldn’t be the only selling point of an expansion pack. The paranormal stuff pack has some of that and is just 9.99 lol. From what I’m seeing, it does feel like a game pack with expansion pack price. It feels a little incomplete to be honest. The world isn’t great, same can be said about the CAS.
@@amphagorey91well I disagree, from what I’ve seen the only downsize is the world, which don’t get me wrong it’s a big flaw, but I don’t think it grants dragging the whole pack down. I feel like paranormal stuff isn’t that groundbreaking as this or horses, ghosts already existed and the little ones are just new versions of the normal ones bc besides that is a table and a system from get to work… regarding CAS I just think is a more stylized choice of clothing which might not be for everyone but it fits the culture and the premise of the pack. it has just as many items (even more shoes I think), really cute and usable hair… I don’t see any flaws in CAS tbh
@@Augustforever13 paranormal stuff might not be groundbreaking but it definitely feels like a complete pack and it’s just 9.99. The same can be said about werewolves pack and it’s just a game pack. They were well done. From this specific pack the build/buy and CAS items are pretty and it’s great that they are bringing new cultures to the game. The pack is not worth $40 in my opinion. Like I said, it just feels incomplete to me. The world is lacking considering it is an expansion pack. Maybe if we had a third neighborhood, or lots that were better. That tiger rabbit hole and the natural park just look mediocre tbh. The swimming river? We already have that in High School Years pack. The cave? There is already one in Island Living. Like Kayla said, it’s definitely not the worst but it is disappointing. Just not worth $40 lol. Definitely a game pack with an expansion pack price.
@@jlpkbrb1086 People like you are the reason EA releases bugged/broken packs ALL the time. Simmers will buy anything this days and put down people that demand EA to do a better job. It is very obvious they’re only doing just the minimum when they release new packs. The base game is plain boring on its own, so yes, you’re basically forced to buy packs to have a better gaming experience. If you think the pack is worth wasting $40, then great for you, I guess. It is still a pack only worth buying when is on sale and doesn’t feel like an expansion pack at all. The pack doesn’t bring anything new. The system to be a landlord/tenant is great but the way the apartments work is almost the same like the gameplay in City Living. Basically, you’re only buying the pack to be able to build apartments, something we are not allowed in City Living. A new culture is always great but the small world doesn’t offer anything new because all it has we already have it in other worlds or packs. Again, definitely a game pack with expansion pack price.
that person was definitely lying to you 😭😭 no one just drinks plain hot water much less microwaves it and i say that as an american living near the canadian border 😭😭
I live in Korea and sometimes people recommend that I should drink hot water for this or that reason (sore throat, stomachache, whatever). It’s awful. It has terrible mouthfeel and I just can’t get it down.

For Rent is only usable if you’re a tenant or a landlord. Seasons affects you no matter what sort of gameplay you’re doing. It’s not the same.
The Horse pack should have been a game pack though. All it did was add horses and it didn't even implement that very well.
For Rent seems to be inspired by Asia which explains why the lounge is opened air. A lot of public spaces are opened aired especially with the street markets.I personally like that's opened like that, if I end up buying this pack, I will make an opened air build.

The new sink classification update is a bigger deal than painting ceilings. I said it, and I'd say it again.
the last thing I expected was for kayla to speak of the Dear Leader, Jim Pickens 2:08:43
This pack is like made for Jim Pickens to be an evil landlord. Can’t wait to see Kevin play this pack and meet Jim’s less evil doppelgänger.
Pesonally, my favorite packs are Cottage Living and Werewolves, largely because there are distinct characters, and really unique things to learn about both the world and the people in the world.

@@sophiag612 yeah i honestly really like the base game aspirations (for the most part) i like the build up it makes sense as a life long goal for the sim
@@deniedredMe too. For the most part it takes sims at least 2 life stages for me to complete them. They don’t match TS3 aspirations (those were soooo hard) but they can be pretty difficult and I like that!
Some people actually like to play the game not just build so of course to you it’s going to feel “big”
It introduces a whole new career, and a large one at that. You don’t have to be a builder to enjoy this. You can download builds or use the preexisting apartments that are with the world.
@@AmberCalendine even stuff packs have new careers. They could have just left out the landlord part and added apartments to the base game
To me, the gameplay of the pack doesn’t warrant it being an expansion… The features & world feel pretty lackluster to warrant the high price point. Most of the aspirations are lazy, the rabbit holes, and buy mode lack of thought/swatches. The multi-unit lots are really giving the build mode changes that Tiny Living (a … stuff pack) gave. I’d rather the sims team have given us the multi-unit lots in a stuff or gamepack and saved this world for a future pack until they could’ve fleshed it out better.
I can wait for property management it’s speaking to me as a business student 😂 love it so far
I have had the wallpaper lag for a week and a half now, it’s been awful. I obviously don’t have the pack yet so I don’t think it’s associated
1:58:08 My mom actually cooks water and drinks it.
Apparently it's supposed to be healthy... even if it is, I'll stick to tea thank you :'D
That is *COOKING* it though, I can get behind that. Microwaving it just feels wrong on so many levels.
23:52 I've been waiting for this pack to come out because I was thinking of building a tiny home trailer park. You know like make 30 tile micro homes on like a 30x20 lot. And then they look like little huts that can be rented out. I've been wanting to do that ever since I saw the pack trailer. But that's one thing I haven't seen any creator on RUclips do. I've seen separated townhomes and duplexes and container homes, but how cute would it be if you built two or three lots next to each other with three micro homes on each lot? It would look like a tiny home park. And I was thinking of doing them in different themes, like three log cabins or three contemporary style bills, or three beach houses or yurts, and then just have the three homes connect with like a foot path or something. I think that would be so interesting
I love making multiple home lots it's so fun for gameplay that's sounds cool to make ❤
Was surprised you didn't make Dan build the snowman for you 🤣
I know you can't see the gallery, but do you think there's now a way for apartments to be uploaded as apartments and not as broken rooms?
This version has no gallery access at all
@@jlpkbrb1086 i know! i’m asking if she thinks that it’ll happen!
I find it very disappointing you can’t build apartments on penthouses. I was really looking forward to that
It makes sense. A penthouse is, by definition, a single apartment that takes up the whole top floor of a building...thus making it essentially a house. If it is split up into more apartments, then it isn't a penthouse. Then you get to the actual coding, and that lot type is unique. That's like asking for a retail lot to be apartments, or a vet clinic to be apartments.
Kayla I love that sweater so much
today is my 2 year anniversary of when i started watching your videos
I was tempted to buy a Lego advent calendar, but it was so hard to choose, and then Usborne released another book advent calendar which OBVIOUSLY I had to buy...
her twitch chat is so annoying
rofl, 'fortnite is still big, honey'....oh, no... *honey*, it really isn't. It's barely still big with the 12 year olds. Poor Simsie, getting shit on by her own chat...who are clueless about how cringe Fortnite always has been and will be, lmao! What a clueless moment from that twitch chatter, lmao! Embarrassing for them.
And I can't wait to see more 'void sims' - Steven Pawn is obviously Stephen King. xD (And I love the Boulder! HA!)
I’m going to be getting the Sims 4 soon and I’m planning to get both Seasons and Growing Together around then. If I decide to buy one first and then get the other one later, which one of those two do you think I should get first?
Seasons affects every save with no effort on your part. It also comes with a full set of doors and windows. Growing together will affect you if you play with families/ want a new world to play in.
Cats and dogs is another EP that has some major gameplay to it in the form of small pets. It will affect every save but you have a bit of control over how much you want it to affect you. This one also has a new world.
I know you only asked about the first two but I personally love cats and dogs so wanted to throw it out if you've ever thought of getting it.
if you tenant house breaks down do you pay for it in the new pack
Build mode is extremely laggy on console too.
Does anyone know whether or not you’re able to make 2 stories one apartment? Kind of like a townhouse?
Yes you can. It can be as big or small as you want, you just have to label each room for whichever unit you want it to be.
Since this isn’t the normal sims game and you don’t have access to the gallery, will this build just be gone by the time the pack is released?
The save game can be manually transferred so she could get this into her main game if she does that!
Did any one realize she says “ umm “ a lot 😂😂 I just caught on its alotttttttttt . Love your videos just something I picked up on lol
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again playing the sims is awesome when you have parents that will pay money to keep you from annoying them
All hail the dear leader lmao
Jim Pickens?
The sims team taking up two spots to add functional/non-functional item instead of just adding a toggle off feature 🙄
It comes out on my daughters 2nd bday 😂
I miss the chocolate advent calendar
2:22:07 Why are sims so weird?😅Because that was the best time to sit and watch.
Does lilsimsie get a discount or does she actually pay full price like we do? 🤣 cause it is really expensive to be a simmer especially in this economy 🤣🤣🤣💀
@GoldenShadows yeah I suppose so. But now if you put lilsimsie in your purchase she also gets part of your purchase. I just wonder with early access and also collaborating if she would get some sort of discount. Either way it’s still alot to get packs whether she pays or not. Not that this specific one isn’t a great pack.
Do creators not get all the packs for free from EA? I guess I always just kind of assumed they did.
She pays full price. She wont get her preorder until the 7th
@@jlpkbrb1086she is part of the creator network which means she gets early access and all packs for free
@@jlpkbrb1086This isn’t true. Creators get the packs for free. I specifically remember when the sims stopped sending LGR the sims games for free probably due to his honest reviews.
The world looks nice but the price is NOT
Also, the fact that we only get ONE neiborhood and 1 or 2 lots, just does NOT seem WORTH the crazy buying price of this exspansion pack either
to be honest. But again the world looks nice. And of course EA built the world and the one appartment place who else would ?? Lol. Also I think this pack would be somethieng that some builders would proably like. Just a guess though. 👍✌
There are two neighborhoods in the world, not one. The builds are by the Maxis team, not EA. It's priced the same as every other expansion pack - did you expect that the price of the packs would go lower or something? I mean, people employed by Maxis have to eat and often pay their rents as well. The team is working on the packs for months and then people assume that they should work for free, smh. There are games with much higher prices for the expansion packs. It may not be worth it for you but "screaming" in caps the ultimate judgements about the price is ridiculous.
“People who work at maxis have to eat and often pay their rents as well” LMAO. You are brainwashed to believe that they are not price gouging.
It’s just a fact that sims dlc over time have been less fleshed out with less and less content.
@@sophiag612 Oh yeah, "I'm brainwashed" to believe that people have to eat and they shouldn't be paid peanuts for months of work. Meanwhile you're repeating the same worn-out catchphrases like a parrot, clearly knowing nothing about coding and looking through rose-colored sunglasses at the older content. Hate the new packs? Vote with your wallet and don't buy it. Simple as that. No one is holding a gun to your head and making you buy it.
2:31:02 the way she said it😂
Kayla is a slumlord! 😂 That's what I want to be!
Malcolm landgraab suspected arsonist lol
All hail our dear leader Jim Pickens!!
Is it intentional that Phil Vang looks like Phil Wang the UK comedian?
Curious to see if your statement is still true today @2:23:10
does @moresimsie know that smeagie is a reddit post and the dog is very haunting to look at 😂
to be fair, this pack is giving game pack.
Am I the only one who doesn’t have the pressure cooker in my game?
You can’t have it, because it’s part of the For Rent pack that isn’t out yet.
Oh come on now, this expansion is not massive. There's hardly any gameplay even assuming that the barebones system of renting actually works and isn't buggy. The world is completely empty. EA has consistently done game pack worthy content and called it an expansion.
can you clean up the mold in the new pack
If you watch this video or anyone else's, they tell you.
You and @callmekevin should collaborate on a video with him and Jim Pickens lol
lol nice now we build it
Speed build snow man
I will forever pirate sims content because it’s ridiculous how little comes in this pack. I understand that a lot comes in the pack, but there is barely anything to actually do. The world is tiny and has nothing to it. The building tool is cool but…that’s about it.
I mean, I never condone pirating (unless its from Nintendo), but if you aren't a builder and don't find enough value in basement suites, townhomes, duplexes, etc. as well as having options beyond the absolute garbage and just terribly unrealistic and boring EL and CL apartments then that's your opinion and you're allowed to hold it. like I will agree, this is like 60% a build pack and 40% a gameplay pack. However, I think that this is something that you shouldn't pirate. I think piracy is disgusting, you are stealing from harding working people who spent many hours pouring their hearts into these packs and games. I know you may think its just a scam and I know EA sucks but pirating hurting the creators of content a lot because EA will see lower sales numbers from packs and so they will give the sims team less money which means future packs will be worse quality AND future sims games will be bad.
They should have included burglars…:(
Some people who watch her ask the dumbest questions. I dont understand why they are so slow
👋🏻
it really does annoy me when people say “it’s a game pack with expansion price” specially when it comes with literally game altering systems… yes the world is small everything else sort of explains it though.. people think the new build system could be made with gane pack budget 😅😅 same thing with horses, like do people seriously think that the development of HORSES from scratch isn’t hard, time consuming and that it needs the biggest budget they have?? like 😂
Having game altering systems shouldn’t be the only selling point of an expansion pack. The paranormal stuff pack has some of that and is just 9.99 lol. From what I’m seeing, it does feel like a game pack with expansion pack price. It feels a little incomplete to be honest. The world isn’t great, same can be said about the CAS.
@@amphagorey91well I disagree, from what I’ve seen the only downsize is the world, which don’t get me wrong it’s a big flaw, but I don’t think it grants dragging the whole pack down.
I feel like paranormal stuff isn’t that groundbreaking as this or horses, ghosts already existed and the little ones are just new versions of the normal ones bc besides that is a table and a system from get to work…
regarding CAS I just think is a more stylized choice of clothing which might not be for everyone but it fits the culture and the premise of the pack. it has just as many items (even more shoes I think), really cute and usable hair… I don’t see any flaws in CAS tbh
@@Augustforever13 paranormal stuff might not be groundbreaking but it definitely feels like a complete pack and it’s just 9.99. The same can be said about werewolves pack and it’s just a game pack. They were well done. From this specific pack the build/buy and CAS items are pretty and it’s great that they are bringing new cultures to the game. The pack is not worth $40 in my opinion. Like I said, it just feels incomplete to me. The world is lacking considering it is an expansion pack. Maybe if we had a third neighborhood, or lots that were better. That tiger rabbit hole and the natural park just look mediocre tbh. The swimming river? We already have that in High School Years pack. The cave? There is already one in Island Living. Like Kayla said, it’s definitely not the worst but it is disappointing. Just not worth $40 lol. Definitely a game pack with an expansion pack price.
These people will complain about everything. They dont have to buy it. Seems well worth it in my opinion.
@@jlpkbrb1086 People like you are the reason EA releases bugged/broken packs ALL the time. Simmers will buy anything this days and put down people that demand EA to do a better job. It is very obvious they’re only doing just the minimum when they release new packs. The base game is plain boring on its own, so yes, you’re basically forced to buy packs to have a better gaming experience.
If you think the pack is worth wasting $40, then great for you, I guess. It is still a pack only worth buying when is on sale and doesn’t feel like an expansion pack at all. The pack doesn’t bring anything new. The system to be a landlord/tenant is great but the way the apartments work is almost the same like the gameplay in City Living. Basically, you’re only buying the pack to be able to build apartments, something we are not allowed in City Living. A new culture is always great but the small world doesn’t offer anything new because all it has we already have it in other worlds or packs. Again, definitely a game pack with expansion pack price.
Thanks for not showing cas... i like maje sims but watching cas is not the vibes, love your streams
joel is hot
Second!
First!!
that person was definitely lying to you 😭😭 no one just drinks plain hot water much less microwaves it and i say that as an american living near the canadian border 😭😭
That’s just your experience. I know people that drink hot water like that and are American.
I never have, but I've heard some people say they drink warm water to help them get to sleep?
I live in Korea and sometimes people recommend that I should drink hot water for this or that reason (sore throat, stomachache, whatever). It’s awful. It has terrible mouthfeel and I just can’t get it down.
