i don't wanna be mean or anything cuz i know it's in between the cuts but can you blink more you didn't blink a single time in the first 1:30 and i've noticed a similar trend in a lot of your videos
I actually want this because I just lost my Dad and he used to make jewelry and I wanna honor him with that, I just gotta wait for a stupid amount of time till I can get it because I and my husband are between jobs at the moment, I've been playing The Sims almost since The Sims 1 came out and I've played almost all versions even URBS: Sims in the City I just never got a Wii or whatever to play the MY Sims game I love all of them
i was watching jennxpenn the other day, she was playing sims and a sim in the hotdog suit showed up and the whole chat was shouting stanley! it was so heartwarming for me
Stanley put his blood, sweat, and tears (sometimes even his life) into becoming the iconic entrepreneur he is today. So proud of him for this accomplishment. He deserves the recognition 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😭
@@Seen_not_heard Stanley Humphrey is the name of the hotdog man she plays with in most of her rags to riches challenges, and I think the Sims 4 referenced it bc they’re always collaborating w lilsimsie
I think that's what I'm gonna do! I haven't hardly touched the growing together keepsake boxes and I think this will probably get me started on using those lol
@@alittlesimsobsessedI was reading about the challenge and people actually recommend you only have one baby at a time. Obviously you can't control it, but you wouldn't intentionally increase the odds of getting twins and triplets. Having twins or heaven forbid triplets throws it off greatly. I think it has to do with the fact pregnant sims don't age and the 8 sims per household limit.
CAS UNLOCK TIP: If you go to the gallery and search 'cas unlock' under households, you should be able to find a sim that you can add to your household to unlock all the hidden cas stuff! It can be limiting bc it can take a while for these gallery sims to be updated with the newest unlockable cas stuff, but if you want a quick and easy way to unlock hidden cas stuff, thats how! Wish the SIms team made it easier tho
yess that's a great tip but i don't think it would work for this particular pack because the jewelry isn't accesible by cas as far as I understand, like you wear it from the inventory but I don't think you can access it by cas even if you have made the items and "unlocked" them
Omg I never knew you could do that! I upload my sims with collectibles all the time but I didn't know it unlocked it for people. I just know it uploads them with global superstar and stuff. I'm so mad I lost my super sim when my computer broke before I got it fixed. I would've uploaded her she had all collections and a lot of career unlocks 😭
@@kailvslav you're right yeah im not quite sure if it would work for this pack with how complex the jewelry is! Guess someone will have to test that lol
I mean... I would be happy for her to be paid for it! (For an honest review not a dishonest comertial of course) Her gameplays are such an inspiration for many simmers and I'm sure I'm not the only one who gotten inspired to play the Sims after watching her videos or even bought stuff, becouse I liked it in her game. It would be honest money for her and great investment for EA
@@ola1532 She can afford to be honest, but clearly sometime she says stuff that does not stand at all and are purely to be ''positive'' and very unrealistic... like she knows what she is doing.
A happy witch living in her microhome making magical moon jewelry. The most OP Sims concept? Perhaps. Able to magically clean and repair, boosted skill gain and happiness, and all the crystal boons! You'd be unstoppable.
I am like dying to create a necromancer who only dabbles in curses, is only friends with ghosts and has a bunch of jett crystals bc she wants to be besties with grim PLUS I can use the goth kit
Open a jewelry store in Tartosa and sell wedding rings and stuff for people getting married! This pack actually looks really fun and I'm excited about it.
@j2ft2zn6o There should be... it works with listing on plopsy so I'm sure it works with the retail stores. So far I don't think I've seen a pack that doesn't work with retail stores?? Maybe food doesn't-- I've never tried because restaurants are a thing and now they have home chef hustle.
Kayla seems to forget that Tiny Living was a stuff pack xD (which is definitely her most used - see all the get rich quick schemes) Count me in on the crystals, however. That was always my favorite collection :D
Oh yes I love that pack! Since I got it, I always play in micro homes because why should I want anything else than all those perks? 😅 I just can't resist! And also, building such a small home is really quick and easy.
@@Mady0@Mady0 also true, but honestly, the furniture in Tiny Living is super fun and useful as well (Murphy bed with the extra death, the multi-functional TV-radio-bookshelfs, etc) - and Kayla uses those a lot too. I would definitely count it as one of my favorites for the furniture alone, not to forget the lot perks and the cute outfits :3
There is one extra top when you turn off the masculine and feminine options. It is literally a hidden gem... 😅😅 Which I love. This is a kit I'll actually get because it looks fun as hell to me.
That seems like an oversight. I'm pretty sure every article of clothing is tagged with at least one, if not both, but since you can't set your sim's fashion sense to both/neither, everything should be tagged. Hopefully they fix that (OR LET YOU SET IT THEIR FASHION SENSE TO NEITHER. My god, the number of times I have to manually disselect masc/femme fashion choices in the filter to actually pick clothes I want 😩)
Omg I LOVE that they mentioned Stanley and your 'can i get rich with..' series, that is so fun! I love this pack, eventhough it's lacking some cas and b&b but I'm gonna loveeee the new skill
I think the kits helped with this. I’m hoping we don’t get any more stuff packs like the old ones that have no real game play features and are mostly JUST stuff and they’ll focus those stuff-only ideas on the kits. 🤞🏻
Same!!! ❤❤❤ It's a game, gameplay should be the priority!! Not Cad, not Poser, not Daz, Not a Fashion Show, Not Avatar Makers....although we can use all of those features, it's still a game that needs gameplay the most!
I agree on the hair clips and hair colors. With the clips, I wish they had separate swatches where that would be interchangeable, such as gold, silver, and copper, or clear like with barrettes so it can go with any color of hair. Then have separate swatches for the flower on the clip. And with the hair itself, they need to have sliders like they have for the makeup. That way there will be a multitude of different colors for each style. It would be so freeing and creative to have this.
I agree! I would even like it if they just had the same color clip in a neutral color. That way it's less of a glaring mismatch and more like "my sim grabbed a brown hair clip that was laying around"
I’m OBSESSED with the idea of heirloom jewelry!!! Like- imagine your sim wearing their great aunt or somethin’s favorite necklace- Or proposing using your parents ring- Orrrr having all the family jewelry in one of those time-capsule-thingys (or whatever their called) from growing together and also- with get to work you can make JEWELRY STORESSS I like this WAY more than I thought I would ASJ,HEFAKJHESFKJHFESKJ
I'm disappointed about the lack of CAS , the rest of the pack’s aesthetic is a very pretty witchy/whimsigoth vibe and I’d love more whimsigoth clothing for my sims :[ There was so much potential for stunning clothing in this pack!!
There is one more shirt for adults but its not tagged properly. Just tick off masculine and feminine frame filter and there it is - Deligracy discovered it
OH MY GOD. A pottery pack would be soooooo amazing. The compatibility possibilities is endless. Vases that with cheats can slot around some of the existing plant decorations. Mugs plates bowls for decorations omg
I saw on Twitter that toddlers and infants got one pair of earrings but I don’t think Kayla mentioned that. It isn’t much but it’s cool that it’s the first time infants got jewelry! I’m so excited for this whole pack though, it looks like so much fun😊
Wondering about the cross compatibility with cats and dogs? Like jeweled collars and give them a boost in hunting or training? That would be cool to see! Or even in horses a jeweled saddle to help in competitions etc
Idk why but I think this pack would go well with get to work as well The idea of creating a jewellery shop sounds awesome gameplay wise...the idea of building one in the wedding stories world and having my sim go there to pick out an engagement ring sounds awesome
I’m already planning my polycule of sims who all have a thing they craft who will open up a little shop together to sell all of their wares. 😍 I know you can do without this pack, obviously, but the crystals and jewelry gave me a burst of inspiration for the specifics. 😂
The thing with hair clips is there’s so much cc that has customizable hair clips/scrunchies and it’s so good! I wish the sims team could do something similar since modders have found a way
I wouldn’t worry about the jewelry not being in cas straight away, even without cheats to get them someone is going to complete the collection put it in a room and upload it to the gallery, that’s how I get potions with difficult to find ingredients or ambrosia when I need it
I think that blue is a very wide ranging colour, certainly in English. We have a lot of shades we call blue. But for example, light red has a whole different category; pink.😊
This comparison just makes no sense. Pink is its own color with its own shades, red can have as many shades as blue, they just simply don't add anything other than blue
In many languages, like Russian, what we would call "light blue" and "dark blue" are referred to as two different colors, just like how we call red and pink two different colors!
23:11 "you can propose with things that you have crafted" okay that is ADORABLE !! my grandfather made jewelry, and i think either he or my dad (or both) proposed with a ring he made. i know he definitely gave my mom (his daughter in law) a necklace, which i always found very sweet, like a sign of approval. the fact that they've worked things like this into the pack is soooo cool! i might just have to get it one of these days (and maybe that pack with witchcraft... i can finally make the witchy house of my DREAMS instead of just putting debug crystals everywhere lmao)
I was ready to drag the pack after the CAS and buy/build mode but I loooove the gameplay and that's what's most important for me in a pack. The crystal charging is just incredibly useful and the proposing with the ring is so cute ❤
Kinda wish the bookshelves had a variation for the three different wall heights. It's so difficult to build when you want a high ceiling as everything else looks stupidly short.
I just got the crystal pack, and tried it with the book nook stuff (which I got for the same reason, I could make tall bookcases for my library) but they don't clip to the top of the new bookcase, just sort of hover a few inches above it. which is sad.
about all the blue swatches- i remember as a kid playing sims 3, my mom would walk by and always ask me why my houses were always so blue and i would tell her that that’s just how the house came (i didn’t build at all and only used the pre made houses) so kayla is absolutely right- it’s the games fault that everything is always so blue
she should do an only blue swatches build challenge - really give her favourite items a time to shine in the ultimate blue suburban (even if it’s already been done, the newer packs are so pretty)
10:13 FUN FACT!! bc i don’t think i heard/saw it mentioned- both the jewelry boxes are storage units! you can drag all ur jewelry into it, and also put the boxes into ur inventory (side note i was so disappointed that i couldn’t display necklaces on the cordelia’s bust)
The MINUTE this goes on sale I'm absolutely buying it, I've always wanted this hobby and the furniture is my WHOLE VIBE. I'm so excited! But I'm not touching the game till there's a way I can remove that shopping cart lmao
oh my GOD i need pottery, soap making, and i can just envision a stuff pack called "sentimental journeys" or smth and it just be ENTIRELY for scrapbooking, with maybe origami, throwing paper balls mischief interaction, paper mache included
There’s an extra top that hasn’t been catagorized so it won’t show up for masculine of feminine sims. If you delete the gender option in cas then there will be an extra top shown!! I don’t know why EA didn’t categorise it, but just so you know!!
I have a super sim family trying to collect all the things with just the eight of them. We're currently working on all of the paintings. Obviously, I am SO excited. I love collecting things. All my sims end up with "retail lot" museums. I might not sleep tonight. Now I know this isn't for the average simmer but holy cow... it's definitely for me!
I have an important exam tomorrow and I was kinda panicking right now.. So glad that you uploaded this video. Your voice really calms me down and im already feeling much better. Love from Germany, I hope y’all will have a great day
a pottery pack would be super cool, id love to have different pots and vases for plants and stuff--- I mean, id argue that plants are most peoples favorite thing to decorate with and for the record I've been planning to buy this pack since the second I saw the furniture
For gameplay unlocked CAS, you can just add a gallery sim who has it unlocked to the family and you'll be able to use it for the rest of the sims (you can delete the extra sim before leaving CAS) There's some sims on the gallery called CAS unlock that you can just add right in with all the career, knitting etc. stuff unlocked. I'm sure they'll be updated very soon after the pack drops
unpopular opinion but am i the only one who actually likes the fact that in order to get the jewelry from the pack you have to actually do it in game??? they’re supposed to be special to your sim and that’s what the intention was, hence the thousands of option there are. that’s the whole point of “gameplay” 😭😭
I could not disagree with you more on the CAS stuff 😂 Honestly, it's a jewellery pack not a clothing pack, so I think the stuff you get in CAS in terms of clothing is actually kind of great (And I love the dark academia vibes they went with. Absolutely gorgeous). The fact that they made over 1000 different combinations of jewellery for the pack shows they put a lot of effort into it, and I feel like it's a bit unfair to be criticising them on how 'little' CAS stuff there is, when you can unlock so much more. I do, however, agree with you on the hair clip thing. I wish you could change it separately, but at least it's in the back of your sims head so you can't always see it🤣
agree like It's a pack about making jewelry, you have to do it, have it in cas like straight away is kind of against what the pack is proposing, and also the amount of in-game combination that the jewelry have 🤯 I don't think that would fit in the cas like at all
I agree and I really like those four tops for the masculine framed sims! I always find it funny how people ask EA for more basics, (I’m sure I’ve heard Kayla say this in a video) and then say the new items aren’t standouts or are too basic 😅
I always think its so cute, that she mentions to use ANY creator code. The most streamer/youtuber thinks just of themself. Also the way she mentions i really feel her good soul. Greets from germany ❤
I immediately clocked that swivel chair as one of the top items in the pack when I watched your trailer video. It’s giving WWII era library. So good with Book Nook, Castle Estate, Realm of Magic, get together, etc.
We NEED a pottery stuff pack!! Just you advocating for that and putting it out into the sims universe makes me so happy! I would buy that in a heartbeat 😊
I am always so impressed by how eloquently you put things you are just such a wonderful speaker and I cherish that you come out here and be vulnerable with us all.
Honestly I love how the sims team makes references to content creators in the games. I recently had a cow plant and the default name was Lil Simzee and I loved it so much I didn’t even change it.
Genuinely such an amazing sim pack! I'm usually a builder but I actually played through this pack and it's getting me back into playing Live mode more. At the same time... the build items are absolutely fantastic and I have SO many ideas from this pack! It works so well in conjunction with Paranormal Stuff and Realm of Magic :DD
As a beginner gemstone collector, the existence of this pack makes me smile. Just eye rolling a little at the esoteric element of charges haha ;D they're pretty, not magical.
they should change the hair function to something similar to the paint feature on pets, like custom hairs and accessories. it'd be SOOO popular honestly. like me with my money pieces, i simply cannot go anywhere close to that without CC
I wish you could use the gemcutting table as a regular desk! It´s so pretty, I had hoped there was a desk that looked like that OR that you could use it as a regular desk because this is the prettiest desk we have ever gotten (if you don´t count paranormal).
I’d love to see a Fashion Designer pack now. Maybe something similar to Dream Home Designer where you need to hand make outfits for clients based on their taste. Somewhat like the thrift store function in High School Years but you get more home-studio style mannequins and your sim gets to use sewing machines and inspiration boards. The build items can be studio stuff with rolled up material and messy tables with thread and scissors all over it. I’d love to see clothes that look more amateurish and obviously sewn together when you’re early in the skill and then gorgeous outfits when you’ve maxed it.
oh my gosh, the need increasing one! I had those plants in the sims 2 that slowly increased the needs over time and I would always fill my sims' houses with them!
I imagine a jewelry retail shop will be so much fun to play - Maybe your sim isn't crafty but still wants to buy a gorgeous ring for their spouse-to-be. I think this pack really expands the world in a fun way.
I was really excited to buy this pack right away but the shopping cart update has meant I'm not updating or buying it at all 😞 hoping the modders will come to the rescue before too long. Thank you for your honest and fast review as always Simsie!
please please please make a jewellery shop as a retail lot that be so cool and would make good use out of wedding stories so you can go pick out a ring!!
As someone who as done a bit of jewelry work in my time I’m very impressed w the jeweler’s bench(work table)! I wasn’t expecting that much attention to detail!
Fun Fact at about level 8-9 you will get 3 crystals or metals per node and if you have get to work, the scientists career's lot has A LOT of metals and crystals to collect so if you want to harvest a lot just follow them to work once or twice
I have a legacy family with Morgan Ember as the father and a OC as the Mother. 3 kids. The oldest is the only boy and the only one who isn't a spellcaster - he is a wishing well kid instead. And then there two girls, both spellcaster. The youngest is called Gem! I didn't know what to do with her as a storyline. Now I know. ❤🎉
Honestly, I have a couple custom hairs with hair tie options that are separate items so you can change the swatch separately and it's pretty annoying to pair them once they're downloaded. And I'm not sure how else the hair additions could be swatched separately. Tho I'm not a modder so maybe they could do something. I really like the vibes of this pack and I actually love doing the collections aspiration for rags to riches and always need more shelves for that! Very fun
There's actually one more shirt, but you have to turn of both masculine and feminine. Even if you could access the jewelry in CAS, with say 10 of the same swatches, but only the crafted stuff had all the gameplay stuff, that would have been cool.
Hiii! I'll be live on Twitch at 4:00pm ET playing with the pack! If you're interested in seeing more gameplay, click here: www.twitch.tv/lilsimsie 💚

Absolutely, this fills a big gap in the game! I'm happy about it :)
Same 😂❤
Sameee
No cause same. I love having shelves all over with clutter pertaining to my family.
Me too, I’ve been wanting more shelves lately.
The lack of CAS is kinda annoying cause the rest of the pack’s aesthetic is a very pretty witchy/whimsigoth vibe and I’d love more whimsigoth clothing
Yeah I was really excited to get a lot more CAS in that style, or at least more jewelry you can wear right away
hoping modders figure out how to unlock them lol
I suspect that a couple cheats will unlock them, like with the crafted furniture from eco lifestyle or the knitted clothes from nifty knitting.
Yeah they really missed the chance to do better with the Goth clothing kit and this. Could have really made something cool with those two...
Then buy Realm of Magic, Werewolves, or the goth kit? Like we already have a bunch of that.
Stanley put his blood, sweat, and tears (sometimes even his life) into becoming the iconic entrepreneur he is today. So proud of him for this accomplishment. He deserves the recognition 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😭

Wondering about the cross compatibility with cats and dogs? Like jeweled collars and give them a boost in hunting or training? That would be cool to see! Or even in horses a jeweled saddle to help in competitions etc
I can see modders adding that functionality. From what I've seen it doesn't come with the pack itself 😔
Idk why but I think this pack would go well with get to work as well
The idea of creating a jewellery shop sounds awesome gameplay wise...the idea of building one in the wedding stories world and having my sim go there to pick out an engagement ring sounds awesome
I’m already planning my polycule of sims who all have a thing they craft who will open up a little shop together to sell all of their wares. 😍 I know you can do without this pack, obviously, but the crystals and jewelry gave me a burst of inspiration for the specifics. 😂
OMG STANLEY IS NOW CANON IN SIMS
The thing with hair clips is there’s so much cc that has customizable hair clips/scrunchies and it’s so good! I wish the sims team could do something similar since modders have found a way
agreed! it just sucks for console players that can't download mods and cc
okay but the CC creator snapped with that jewellery, I do wish it was more quantity but she ate with the rings!
Yes they are so talented. I have a bunch of their cc
I wouldn’t worry about the jewelry not being in cas straight away, even without cheats to get them someone is going to complete the collection put it in a room and upload it to the gallery, that’s how I get potions with difficult to find ingredients or ambrosia when I need it
I think that blue is a very wide ranging colour, certainly in English. We have a lot of shades we call blue. But for example, light red has a whole different category; pink.😊
And an off red is orange! But an off blue is teal which could be green but is usually still considered blue
Suddenly this makes so much sense!
This comparison just makes no sense. Pink is its own color with its own shades, red can have as many shades as blue, they just simply don't add anything other than blue
@Relevart9169 They are talking about naming conventions and how if you add white paint to red, it becomes pink. Colours and humans are fun like that.
In many languages, like Russian, what we would call "light blue" and "dark blue" are referred to as two different colors, just like how we call red and pink two different colors!
23:11 "you can propose with things that you have crafted" okay that is ADORABLE !! my grandfather made jewelry, and i think either he or my dad (or both) proposed with a ring he made. i know he definitely gave my mom (his daughter in law) a necklace, which i always found very sweet, like a sign of approval. the fact that they've worked things like this into the pack is soooo cool! i might just have to get it one of these days (and maybe that pack with witchcraft... i can finally make the witchy house of my DREAMS instead of just putting debug crystals everywhere lmao)
I was ready to drag the pack after the CAS and buy/build mode but I loooove the gameplay and that's what's most important for me in a pack. The crystal charging is just incredibly useful and the proposing with the ring is so cute ❤
Kinda wish the bookshelves had a variation for the three different wall heights. It's so difficult to build when you want a high ceiling as everything else looks stupidly short.
I just got the crystal pack, and tried it with the book nook stuff (which I got for the same reason, I could make tall bookcases for my library) but they don't clip to the top of the new bookcase, just sort of hover a few inches above it. which is sad.
“And Humphrey inc knows that all too well”
Me: I REMEMBER IT ALL TOO WELL-
I was looking for this comment😂
Glad someone else saw it too. This whole pack makes me so excited
about all the blue swatches-
i remember as a kid playing sims 3, my mom would walk by and always ask me why my houses were always so blue and i would tell her that that’s just how the house came (i didn’t build at all and only used the pre made houses) so kayla is absolutely right- it’s the games fault that everything is always so blue
can’t wait for this pack!! it’s gonna be great for occult sims
I will be so surprised if there are NO bugs AT ALL. But it's good to know you haven't experienced any (even though it is just early access)
she should do an only blue swatches build challenge - really give her favourite items a time to shine in the ultimate blue suburban (even if it’s already been done, the newer packs are so pretty)
10:13 FUN FACT!! bc i don’t think i heard/saw it mentioned- both the jewelry boxes are storage units! you can drag all ur jewelry into it, and also put the boxes into ur inventory
(side note i was so disappointed that i couldn’t display necklaces on the cordelia’s bust)
The MINUTE this goes on sale I'm absolutely buying it, I've always wanted this hobby and the furniture is my WHOLE VIBE. I'm so excited! But I'm not touching the game till there's a way I can remove that shopping cart lmao
what shopping cart are you referring to? tbh i just updated a mod that said it removed it in the changelog and i still dont know what it is lol
oh my GOD i need pottery, soap making, and i can just envision a stuff pack called "sentimental journeys" or smth and it just be ENTIRELY for scrapbooking, with maybe origami, throwing paper balls mischief interaction, paper mache included
There’s an extra top that hasn’t been catagorized so it won’t show up for masculine of feminine sims. If you delete the gender option in cas then there will be an extra top shown!! I don’t know why EA didn’t categorise it, but just so you know!!
I have a super sim family trying to collect all the things with just the eight of them. We're currently working on all of the paintings. Obviously, I am SO excited. I love collecting things. All my sims end up with "retail lot" museums. I might not sleep tonight. Now I know this isn't for the average simmer but holy cow... it's definitely for me!
I have an important exam tomorrow and I was kinda panicking right now.. So glad that you uploaded this video. Your voice really calms me down and im already feeling much better. Love from Germany, I hope y’all will have a great day
You’ve got this💪🏻 make sure to take care of yourself and get some good sleep so you can kill that exam :))
Good luck on your exam!!!
@@fallenaster that’s so sweet of you, thank you very much
good luck you can do it 🥰
@@izabella4823 Thank you
i literally need the Stanely Humphrey video with this pack RIGHT THIS INSTANT
a pottery pack would be super cool, id love to have different pots and vases for plants and stuff--- I mean, id argue that plants are most peoples favorite thing to decorate with
and for the record I've been planning to buy this pack since the second I saw the furniture
For gameplay unlocked CAS, you can just add a gallery sim who has it unlocked to the family and you'll be able to use it for the rest of the sims (you can delete the extra sim before leaving CAS)
There's some sims on the gallery called CAS unlock that you can just add right in with all the career, knitting etc. stuff unlocked. I'm sure they'll be updated very soon after the pack drops
My 83 yr old mom has that sweater. Killin it with the grandma aesthetic.
Im so glad this pack turned out well!! VERY excited to play with it
at 13:19 the plumbob necklace that you hover over has the description "za woka genava!" from the sims 3 flirting interactions :3
This could be a really cool concept to create a jewelry shops, and it could provide more accessibility to the jewelry.
unpopular opinion but am i the only one who actually likes the fact that in order to get the jewelry from the pack you have to actually do it in game??? they’re supposed to be special to your sim and that’s what the intention was, hence the thousands of option there are. that’s the whole point of “gameplay” 😭😭
I could not disagree with you more on the CAS stuff 😂 Honestly, it's a jewellery pack not a clothing pack, so I think the stuff you get in CAS in terms of clothing is actually kind of great (And I love the dark academia vibes they went with. Absolutely gorgeous). The fact that they made over 1000 different combinations of jewellery for the pack shows they put a lot of effort into it, and I feel like it's a bit unfair to be criticising them on how 'little' CAS stuff there is, when you can unlock so much more. I do, however, agree with you on the hair clip thing. I wish you could change it separately, but at least it's in the back of your sims head so you can't always see it🤣
totally agree. also toddlers and infants got earrings which i find so cute and am excited about since it’s so common in my region ❤
agree like It's a pack about making jewelry, you have to do it, have it in cas like straight away is kind of against what the pack is proposing, and also the amount of in-game combination that the jewelry have 🤯 I don't think that would fit in the cas like at all
I agree and I really like those four tops for the masculine framed sims! I always find it funny how people ask EA for more basics, (I’m sure I’ve heard Kayla say this in a video) and then say the new items aren’t standouts or are too basic 😅
Feels like “everything EA didn’t include in realm of magic” stuff pack
I always think its so cute, that she mentions to use ANY creator code. The most streamer/youtuber thinks just of themself. Also the way she mentions i really feel her good soul.
Greets from germany ❤
I immediately clocked that swivel chair as one of the top items in the pack when I watched your trailer video. It’s giving WWII era library. So good with Book Nook, Castle Estate, Realm of Magic, get together, etc.
Aw man that needs gain crystal is gonna be sooo helpful for our infant/toddler dungeons.
You’ve sold me on this pack. Pretty stuff, and I don’t yet have a yard sale table.
OMG, they mentioned Stanley!
me, a crystal witchy girly, really NEEDS this pack, even though CAS has disappointed me a little, i feel the build/buy and gameplay makes up for it!
Can't wait to make a jewelry store my sims can go to and find their engagement/wedding rings 😭❤️
We NEED a pottery stuff pack!! Just you advocating for that and putting it out into the sims universe makes me so happy! I would buy that in a heartbeat 😊
I am always so impressed by how eloquently you put things you are just such a wonderful speaker and I cherish that you come out here and be vulnerable with us all.
Why do I see Tinker’s child using this skill
I AM CRYSTALIZING FOR THIS NEW PACK 🔮✨
Nice pun.
htis is gonna be the first pack im gonna buy immediatly when ti comes
THE STANTLEY TABLE IS MY FAVORITE ITEM
just wait like max 2 months and it's cheaper
@@IHateKaeya why would they put a packs that’s ONLY $10 on sale two months later. it’s literally ten bucks
its not gonna be in slae 2months later in my country its gonna be in sale in like july and thne theres no idea of gettin it@@belleeec
kept refreshing waiting for this ^^
Same
same lol
I like the idea of the blank ones for shop display items
Honestly I love how the sims team makes references to content creators in the games. I recently had a cow plant and the default name was Lil Simzee and I loved it so much I didn’t even change it.
I'm always up for more displays. My sims are always collecting so it's nice to free up their inventory and display everything.
Genuinely such an amazing sim pack!
I'm usually a builder but I actually played through this pack and it's getting me back into playing Live mode more. At the same time... the build items are absolutely fantastic and I have SO many ideas from this pack! It works so well in conjunction with Paranormal Stuff and Realm of Magic :DD
As a beginner gemstone collector, the existence of this pack makes me smile. Just eye rolling a little at the esoteric element of charges haha ;D they're pretty, not magical.
they should change the hair function to something similar to the paint feature on pets, like custom hairs and accessories. it'd be SOOO popular honestly. like me with my money pieces, i simply cannot go anywhere close to that without CC
I wish you could use the gemcutting table as a regular desk! It´s so pretty, I had hoped there was a desk that looked like that OR that you could use it as a regular desk because this is the prettiest desk we have ever gotten (if you don´t count paranormal).
I’d love to see a Fashion Designer pack now. Maybe something similar to Dream Home Designer where you need to hand make outfits for clients based on their taste. Somewhat like the thrift store function in High School Years but you get more home-studio style mannequins and your sim gets to use sewing machines and inspiration boards. The build items can be studio stuff with rolled up material and messy tables with thread and scissors all over it. I’d love to see clothes that look more amateurish and obviously sewn together when you’re early in the skill and then gorgeous outfits when you’ve maxed it.
oh my gosh, the need increasing one! I had those plants in the sims 2 that slowly increased the needs over time and I would always fill my sims' houses with them!
love the sweater youre wearing in this vid🤍 so adorbs
I’m actually obsessed with the build/buy items 😍
I imagine a jewelry retail shop will be so much fun to play - Maybe your sim isn't crafty but still wants to buy a gorgeous ring for their spouse-to-be. I think this pack really expands the world in a fun way.
I was really excited to buy this pack right away but the shopping cart update has meant I'm not updating or buying it at all 😞 hoping the modders will come to the rescue before too long.
Thank you for your honest and fast review as always Simsie!
I’m glad ea has been adding gameplay around cas. This is definitely a pack I’ll be buying once it’s on sale :)
The needs boosting would be super helpful for 100 baby challenges!
please please please make a jewellery shop as a retail lot that be so cool and would make good use out of wedding stories so you can go pick out a ring!!
As someone who as done a bit of jewelry work in my time I’m very impressed w the jeweler’s bench(work table)! I wasn’t expecting that much attention to detail!
THIS SWEATER!!!! 🌸🌻🌼
It's so cute!!
Someone else said it’s from cider
As someone who doesn't have home chef hustle or eco lifestyle, I'm really happy to get the yard sale feature in another pack
You can also get yard sale tables from City Living and Jungle Adventure
i hope someone makes a nice engagement ring shop and you can download it from the gallery so your sims could buy a ring for their loved ones
The only thing I wish they had done was add the ability to make candles with the "crushed/shaved pieces" of crystals.
Fun Fact at about level 8-9 you will get 3 crystals or metals per node and if you have get to work, the scientists career's lot has A LOT of metals and crystals to collect so if you want to harvest a lot just follow them to work once or twice
I can finally build the library from the opening of Beauty and the Beast now that I have that ladder bookshelf
I have a legacy family with Morgan Ember as the father and a OC as the Mother. 3 kids. The oldest is the only boy and the only one who isn't a spellcaster - he is a wishing well kid instead. And then there two girls, both spellcaster. The youngest is called Gem! I didn't know what to do with her as a storyline. Now I know. ❤🎉
Actually Pottery would be nice, especially since Sims seem to be Sooo Obsessed with playing with the lump of Clay
There are:
48 jewelry styles
27 gems
25 metals
that makes 32 400 possible combinations
Honestly, I have a couple custom hairs with hair tie options that are separate items so you can change the swatch separately and it's pretty annoying to pair them once they're downloaded. And I'm not sure how else the hair additions could be swatched separately. Tho I'm not a modder so maybe they could do something. I really like the vibes of this pack and I actually love doing the collections aspiration for rags to riches and always need more shelves for that! Very fun
The gem that increases motives reminds me of the bouquet you can craft in the sims 2 if you have a gold talent badge in flower arranging
There's actually one more shirt, but you have to turn of both masculine and feminine. Even if you could access the jewelry in CAS, with say 10 of the same swatches, but only the crafted stuff had all the gameplay stuff, that would have been cool.
