She should totally study something like psychology or history and pursue a career in paranormal activities after resurrecting her brother. He can be a warlock but she can be a ghost hunter!
I agree, she may have wanted money early in her life, but having to go on an epic quest to bring your brother back from the dead is the sort of thing that will change a person.
@@slendersage8728 absolutely! And also since she's on a secret society, she could be easily been a Mason or Illuminati (simliminaty?) And fall in love with the trade in the castle. And Bretnel he could just go slack now. He just returned from the dead there's no time for college just pleasure.
@@Apocalipstick Right--it occurs to me that Brentnall might be done with the whole Warlock thing, now that the encounter with the Witch turned out so badly. But Doona is very intrigued.
@@Ladytulipbug It's in the first season. After this spoiler alert: Alice "applied" to Brakebills because her brother died there and she wanted to investigate what happened with him. And if I remember correctly after Alice learnt what happened with him and what he turned into she started to work a solution to bring/turn him back.
Wow, I love that story development! And how Tara and Doona talked about Brentnall when they met! That's so cool and adds so much personality to the game! I'm really missing this. And btw, the fact that Doona was actually an unwanted child and now had such an important role really pleases me :)
For future, the career awards unlock somewhere around levels 5-7 Also if you hover over their aspiration meters it will tell you their life goal eg. head of adventure career, have 5 grandkids etc, and if you fulfil it, it stays platinum permanently which makes dealing with their moods a lot easier .It will also give them a new lifetime goal every time you complete one.
This was my favorite episode yet! I actually like the university episodes better than the at home ones because I miss when I used to play sims 2 university 😭
Doona: I just brought my brother back from the dead! what is the first thing he gonna do? is he gonna hug me and thank me? brentnall: * goes to talk to his stalker *
Hey James! Did you know you can speed up relationships by greeting multiple times? Hit greet, then high five, tough handshake, fake out ect until the queue is full... also if you want a faster longterm relationship, cuddle on a sofa or bed and click peck multiple times.. the bar will always rise by 1.
Actually, without cheats Doona was your only option anyway, because the career path that unlocks the Resurrect-o-nomitron is only available for Sims that graduated from college.
Doona gave her teenagehood up to save Brentnal cuz he was an idiot who died to get it on with a witch and the first thing he does when he comes back is go flirt with the stalker... nice 😂😂
tbh, I don't think anyone would have cared if you had cheated Bretnal's needs back up in the first place. He got legit stuck, if the game cheats you, cheat back
just for future reference: greeting with one of the gestures starts out with a higher relationship number and if you queue them up before your sim greets/meets the other sim, you can raise your short term relationship faster. Thus, you can become friends with others faster. Just fyi! :) love your videos
BRENDTNAL’S BACK! Now Doona and Brendtnal can be in University together... and Nina and Eggton still have to deal with Beetle EDIT: and Sned, sry everyone
Hi James! To figure out what your sim's lifetime aspiration is (their lifetime want/what career they want to be), hover over their aspiration bar which is under the aspiration icon. If you complete a lifetime want, your sim will always have platinum aspiration! Cheers
I love how the sims sit and talk in this game. They cross there legs, lean back, and be casual. In the Sims 4 they sit up on there knees and its SO weird and unnatural for adults to do lol
Hover over her aspiration meter to see what her lifetime wish is. You can pick a Major that helps her achieve her lifetime aspiration if it's career related (e.g. Get to the top of the business career)
Tips: you can actually hover on the meter left of the wants / fears. It will tell you the lifetime goal of your sim. Also you can click on the memories for a description. Ive never seen you do that. Career rewards dont require ur sim to be level 10.
I love watching you play this series! Pure hilarity. It’s so nice to see you go with the flow (even if that means sims die) and just to see what happens while playing the ridiculous Sims 2 P.S. I love all of the children’s names. Especially Beetle
Yay, Brentnall! I'm glad you didn't skimp on the funds and bring him back as a zombie. (Though that might have been funny. . .) And LOL, he is definitely his mother's son -- freshly back from the dead and already ready to start sweet talking his favorite stalker. XD I'm glad you made him go back and give his sister a hug, though, that was sweet. :) I'm also glad you took the "Doona goes to college to save Brentnall" route rather than the "Eggton quits his job to save Brentnall" route because a) Eggton's Lifetime Want is to be a master architect, and I believe you're SUPER CLOSE to making that happen; b) I don't think Eggton has the ability to enter the career the Resurrect-o-Nomitron is a reward for, because I think it's one of those that are university-grad exclusive. So, uh, that would have been a lot of wasted time and you would have been mad at yourself. *nods* Anyway! Here's hoping that Doona in college means coordinating all these Sims gets a heck of a lot easier for ya! Just two kids at home now, aaaaaah. . .
okay been meaning to tell you this quick easy friendship and LTR builder. Okay after greeting the sim chat with them a few times and joke. You'll unlock gossip. Use that to get to around 24. From there either hang out or do kicky bag to get to friend. Once friend do this! 1. Tickle 2. Admire 3. Bust a Move (have to lvl up your dancing) 4. friendly hug 5. Gossip. Repeat. it'll quickly build your friendship up to 100 and it will slowly build your LTR up. Admire followed by Bust a Move always brings LTR up by one point. This way you don't need to flirt with everyone. Also, quick easy grades? Befriend your profs. While building their relationship you get points toward your degree grade. You can also influence someone to do your term paper. Once they start go to another computer and do your term paper. It will double up on your grades. More time for skilling and parties. Oh and lastly parties! To have a good one just do a Red Hands, Admire, Bust a Move. Red hands, Admire, and bust a move. (so twice) and then move on to your next guest. If you can't find them on the lot go into build mode and look for them in the darkened out rooms. If they are in one of them just walk into the room.
It's still June 4th here in Germany, so HAPPY 25th BIRTHDAY, Semaj! Have a very lovely birthday and enjoy your days in LA! Lots of love from Munich, Germany. (btw: I wondered if you could recreate the Octoberfest site in the Sims 4? I guess, it would be hilarious to observe a lot of totally juiced up Sims having a crazy bavarian style booze-up party there :>)
I remember when I finally got all the sims 2 expansion packs, I created a household with one of every kind of supernatural in it. I think it would be a fun challenge series to get one of every kind!
I'm pretty sure I've never played the Sims 2 (or 3 lol) at it's full potential. Like a lot of things i didn't even know were possible like resurrecting a Sim!!!
@Harry Lagom I've had sims 4 since a year or two after it came out and I've played it on and off. I used to play sims 3 and sims 2 for hours and hours. But I just get so bored with sims 4 after just a couple of hours. The only thing I really enjoy doing in it is building.
@@rose32599 it's super easy to pirate, just search up "sims 2 free download" on youtube or google and you should find a tutorial for installing the ultimate collection which includes every expansion + stuff pack. I did it a few weeks ago and the game has been running almost perfectly on my computer (windows 10) with some minor lagging.
Hope you had an awesome birthday, J-dawg! 😍 Technically it still is in the US! 🤘 Anyway, we’re both 25 so we should totally be friends if you ever come back to the States! I have a major friend crush on you. 💖💖💖🥰
I don't think the career rewards gave any negative affects with low aspiration, but as long as it's gold or higher they won't experience any of the negative affects.
Did anyone else get super anxious whenever James didn't have Doona's needs on the screen? 😂 "Please don't let Doona die as well, please don't let her die"
Happy Birthday James, hope you had a great time. Have fun at EA Play buddy, hope you make many awesome memories. Travel safe James and Deli, looking forward to your EA Play updates and vids. XOX
Js, back on twinkii island you would of gotten a voodoo doll from the witch doctor, and then you can just make the secret society members your best friends.
When choosing who to call on the phone menu if it ONLY showed their faces on the Sims 4 we’d all be so lost as to who we want to call because the Sims 4 always CHANGES our Sims outfits when we play a new household! And it’s always so random 😩

Yh and she doesn’t need to max the job at level 5 I’m sure she unlocks the reward for the paranormal career to resurrect the bro
@@Apocalipstick Right--it occurs to me that Brentnall might be done with the whole Warlock thing, now that the encounter with the Witch turned out so badly. But Doona is very intrigued.
yaaaaaaas
A teen goes to college to resurrect her brother...sounds like the plot of a novel. 😆
It was actually the plot in The Magicians xd
Ferenc Kövecses which season??? I haven’t seen that show in forever!!! I need to re-watch thanks for reminding me lol
@@Ladytulipbug It's in the first season. After this spoiler alert:
Alice "applied" to Brakebills because her brother died there and she wanted to investigate what happened with him. And if I remember correctly after Alice learnt what happened with him and what he turned into she started to work a solution to bring/turn him back.
Ferenc Kövecses oh yeah!!!
Or an anime series
The fact that Tara was talking with Doona about her crush on Bretnal 🤣 yeah let me tell you about how i love your dead brother
"What turns you on, I hope it's me" is one of the best lines I've heard
Especially since he clicked the “what turns you off?” question
Nu prea iesi din casa sa inteleg
@@ToraAnbu taci fa
Killed Brentnall by ignoring his needs and he starved to death.
*Almost kills Doona the same way*
Wow, I love that story development! And how Tara and Doona talked about Brentnall when they met! That's so cool and adds so much personality to the game! I'm really missing this.

Tayla Dunn Yh and she doesn’t need to max the job at level 5 I’m sure she unlocks the reward for the paranormal career to resurrect the bro
He knows about the life goal he talked about it before on this lets play
All sim have a lifetime wish please look at and after select a major for Doona :(
Tutku Yılmaz i know I want him to give the simmies what they want!
Yes! And Bretnall
This was my favorite episode yet! I actually like the university episodes better than the at home ones because I miss when I used to play sims 2 university 😭
Yes me tooo!
james: complains about doona’s outfit
also james: goes to a community lot dedicated to clothes and buys none
This was, accidentally, the best plot line ever. How do you fail into success so well, Semaj?
James: I didn't want two university episodes back to back...
Me: I do
The struggles real bro LOL
Doona: I just brought my brother back from the dead! what is the first thing he gonna do? is he gonna hug me and thank me?
brentnall: * goes to talk to his stalker *

Just high five until you are friends forever. It's also how it works in real life :D
Actually, without cheats Doona was your only option anyway, because the career path that unlocks the Resurrect-o-nomitron is only available for Sims that graduated from college.
Destiny .. yep. It was always weird to me that the Paranormal career required a college degree. Sims things.
Doona gave her teenagehood up to save Brentnal cuz he was an idiot who died to get it on with a witch and the first thing he does when he comes back is go flirt with the stalker... nice 😂😂
"now that we're friends, leave me alone"
Classic Semaj
Dislikes her outfit, takes her to a clothing store, does not buy new clothes. Lol 😂
Sims talk on the phone until their social need bar is full
Exactly. Your sim is the one hanging up the phone James😄
tbh, I don't think anyone would have cared if you had cheated Bretnal's needs back up in the first place. He got legit stuck, if the game cheats you, cheat back
"Now we are friends, leave me alone"
this is how true friends treat each other
Honestly, same.
Semaj - Don't go talk to bloody Jasmine the stalker!
Best line ever LOL - Glad it worked out for you :)
just for future reference: greeting with one of the gestures starts out with a higher relationship number and if you queue them up before your sim greets/meets the other sim, you can raise your short term relationship faster.

BRENDTNAL’S BACK!
Now Doona and Brendtnal can be in University together... and Nina and Eggton still have to deal with Beetle
EDIT: and Sned, sry everyone
"The other one" aka Sned
Sry Sned
Justice for Sned. #teamsned
Hi James! To figure out what your sim's lifetime aspiration is (their lifetime want/what career they want to be), hover over their aspiration bar which is under the aspiration icon. If you complete a lifetime want, your sim will always have platinum aspiration! Cheers
Doona is on a mission!!! You go girl!! 🙌🏾😂
Thank goodness you didn't get Eggton to quit. You can only get into the Paranormal career by graduating college
I love how the sims sit and talk in this game. They cross there legs, lean back, and be casual. In the Sims 4 they sit up on there knees and its SO weird and unnatural for adults to do lol
Hover over her aspiration meter to see what her lifetime wish is. You can pick a Major that helps her achieve her lifetime aspiration if it's career related (e.g. Get to the top of the business career)
*Your younger sister brings you back to life, goes to talk to the sim who follows you around.*
If you mouse over the aspiration meter you can see their lifetime want (once you fulfill it, the sim will live in a permanent platinum level).
I’m loving this LP so much! Now I’m feeling inspired to go back and play some Sims 2 myself.
Tips:
you can actually hover on the meter left of the wants / fears. It will tell you the lifetime goal of your sim.
Also you can click on the memories for a description. Ive never seen you do that.
Career rewards dont require ur sim to be level 10.
I feel like James is ultimately going to end up with zombie Brentnall 🤦🏼♀️
Lmao, I think so too
welp, i guess not. we judged him too early. Lmao
Yea I think he's not going to end up with enough money to get him back...
Is it me or James has been EXTRA charming these days?
I speak French and "Volauvent" (which is written vol-au-vent) is actually a type of food hahaha
Vol au vent also means fly on wind
My favourite dish ever!
I love watching you play this series! Pure hilarity. It’s so nice to see you go with the flow (even if that means sims die) and just to see what happens while playing the ridiculous Sims 2
P.S. I love all of the children’s names. Especially Beetle
I’m glad you are bringing him back. He’s the only reason why I watch.
Yay, Brentnall! I'm glad you didn't skimp on the funds and bring him back as a zombie. (Though that might have been funny. . .) And LOL, he is definitely his mother's son -- freshly back from the dead and already ready to start sweet talking his favorite stalker.

Vol-au-vent is a meal. We have them a lot in Canada. It's chicken in a Puff Pastry Shell (with veggies and bechamel sauce - white sauce)
I love how the grim reaper is in the sims
he's like "Thanks for the purchase of your brother's life! just another day at work"
Doona out here going Veronica Mars to find her brother

That Grim Reaper voice was spot on. Great job!!! 😉😂
I remember when I finally got all the sims 2 expansion packs, I created a household with one of every kind of supernatural in it. I think it would be a fun challenge series to get one of every kind!
To stop Sims from dying from hunger I always try to keep some sort of food in their inventory. Cookies, chips and in newer games, apples or pears.
I'm pretty sure I've never played the Sims 2 (or 3 lol) at it's full potential. Like a lot of things i didn't even know were possible like resurrecting a Sim!!!
Watching this LP makes me remember how much I used to love the Sims 2
This was a great episode,they’re all great 👍🏼
"Try not to let them die again..." Love the passive-aggressive in-game burn, lol.
Never seen Semaj so focused and efficient! Good show James
Hope you have a wonderful birthday James 🎂🎊🎁🎉
Holy Moly. How am I this early? Oh man I miss the sims 2
@Harry Lagom Agreed. I miss open world and cars.
@Harry Lagom I've had sims 4 since a year or two after it came out and I've played it on and off. I used to play sims 3 and sims 2 for hours and hours. But I just get so bored with sims 4 after just a couple of hours. The only thing I really enjoy doing in it is building.
Doona is the cunning hero lmao, nice
I was just playing the sims 2 (downloaded it yesterday for free🤩) It’s the best!
Plumberri how’d you get it for free?!

I know that when I always imagine what the Grim Reaper sounds like its definitely with an Australian accent.
I don't think the career rewards gave any negative affects with low aspiration, but as long as it's gold or higher they won't experience any of the negative affects.
Did anyone else get super anxious whenever James didn't have Doona's needs on the screen? 😂 "Please don't let Doona die as well, please don't let her die"
Doona the MVP
Didn't know Grim Reaper had an Australian accent lol
Hahahah his reaction when James cancelled out of the action to hug his sister instead :D
Finally an episode that wasnt a total fuck up! So satisfying Semaj!
Soooo much easier than the Benadryl resurrection.
I needed this after my A Level Law exam
same here, i just has sociology
For the first 5 seconds of the video I thought James was wearing a white bathrobe. Edit: Oh okay he noticed it too 4:34
People: I like your blazer
Me: 7:36
James pls try to rebuild this iconic Dorm in the Sims 4
"people fade out of existence when they talk to me" LOOOOOOL
I spend the whole beggining of the video very confused actually thinking you were in bathrobe until you mentioned it 😂
This is great story line for him being a warlock, he had to DIE to become the warlock, now he is one with the spirits and dark magic or good.
Tara Turner is very close to my name. Makes me giggle everytime.
Happy Birthday James, hope you had a great time. Have fun at EA Play buddy, hope you make many awesome memories. Travel safe James and Deli, looking forward to your EA Play updates and vids. XOX
Doona goes on a secret mission to infiltrate the Sims University, join the Secret Society, and use the machine to resurrect her dead brother. Epic
Happy Birthday from America Semaj!
James. If you want to reset a Sims lifetime benefits you can do it with the aspiration point reward ReNuYu Senso Orb.
James’ video descriptions are life. 😂
I used to resurrect sims all the time and have a lot of zombies! How I miss The Sims 2
Sims 2 > Sims 4
I need this in Sims 4
I give you small hint James. Take a vacation and do the vacation quest adventures. It been awhile since I played Sims 2 Uc.
Poor Doona, gives up her teenage years to bring back her brother, and all he can think about is Jasmine his stalker.
I totally thought James was wearing a fluffy spa bathrobe!
Js, back on twinkii island you would of gotten a voodoo doll from the witch doctor, and then you can just make the secret society members your best friends.
When choosing who to call on the phone menu if it ONLY showed their faces on the Sims 4 we’d all be so lost as to who we want to call because the Sims 4 always CHANGES our Sims outfits when we play a new household! And it’s always so random 😩
I'm living for that Grim Reaper voice XD
Happy birthday James.
Late happy birthday James. Hope you're still celebrating!
I like to think of this family as the ancestors to the Bigwallets.
Love the Grim Reaper voice, LOL
"They just copied and pasted it!" Well, that's how every dorm building I've ever been in seems like
Just to give you some more information: vol-au-vent is a famous Belgian dish (chicken pastry). Weird name for a secret society though..
I can't believe they named the secret society volauvent that's hilarious 😂
Omg I love this female skin she's so funny 😂
I think it’s always Nina in the college cut scene because it’s the parent they have the higher relationship with
"Now we're friends, leave me alone"
Heck yes, been waiting for this
Happy birthday Semaj
I love that you use facecam for these!
