    The Sims is an enormous franchise, spanning over a decade at this point, so it's only natural that over the course of it's long and sordid history, there have been some fantastic entries- and some absolute duds. Today, let's take a look at a selection of Sims expansions, from the fantastic, to the mid, to the horrifically terrible.

    My favorite part of Sims 4 'Get to Work' is that occasionally the detective path will bug out and the criminal you're investigating will be another cop, which you can't arrest. Which means you can't finish the case. 10/10 great realism.

    The Katy perry pack is worth the 30 dollars exclusively because it is the reason that there is now a video Katy Perry herself In the recording booth singing Last Friday Night IN SIMLISH and that alone is too funny to be mad at. Imagine being one of the number one pop stars in america at your peak, and during one of your recording sessions they hand you a lyric sheet of your own song converted into nonsense gibberish and ask you to sing it with a straight face. And now it's the number one source for translating between simlish and english.

    its so funny because obviously looking back, katy perry's sweet treats "expansion" was just a moneygrab for EA and katy perry im SURE, but i remember as a 8 year old girl just absolutely LOVING this pack SO MUCH. decked out my entire house with candy stuff, literally BECAME katy perry in-game and made a multi-generational legacy world full of music career popstars, with drama and divorce and DEATH. i literally utilized this DLC to its absolute limit. i feel like i am the only person who genuinely loved this pack LOLL, i still have the physical copy around im sure.
    (to the fair, this might've been because it was the second expansion i ever got, ambitions being the first, but i was a little girl so i could care less about the jobs haha. nowadays? my fav is supernatural and seasons for sure. sims 3 is still ABSOLUTELY my favorite game of the franchise just bc of the open world, and imo im willing to deal with the greater presence of bugs for it loll.)

    I think somethings that gets forgotten about is the Sims 3 Store content. It was very much the precursor to the Sims 4 model of pulling out bits from packs to sell you later but obfuscated by being priced in "simbucks". I remember it kinda a joke because they were really easy to share around and would pop up within 24 hrs of their release. When I started seeing Sims 4 Game Packs/Stuff Packs/Kits it made we wonder if that was one of the reasons they rush release of Sims 4.

      If you hadn't bought Late Night, it unlocked Vampires because they were so integral to the backstory, it had Werewolves, Witches, and Faeries and it was the most fun I'd had playing the game. So yeah, Supernatural was a great addition, really felt like they cared back then.

    the final straw for me was the high school years pack. i was SO excited because it added features i had always dreamed of and i was waiting for months for it to come out, but when it did, it literally broke everyone’s game and didn’t work. apparently the reasoning is because they no longer had hundreds of international testers as they always used to, instead they only had THREE (3) outsourced indian testers who approved it because they didn’t know what flaws to look for (which was the same reason my wedding stories was so broken, but high school years was even worse, it literally corrupted peoples save files). i didn’t end up buying the pack and haven’t opened my sims 4 game since. it’s so obvious they care way more about profit than actually making good games, and it’s just not even fun anymore

    Re: “making too many videos about the Sims”
    I got into your content back when you released your video on Warrior cats, as I was hugely into that series as a kid. From there I watched more of your stuff and realized we were around the same age (I was born in 97) and our childhoods had a lot of the same core interests as a result - Neopets, Warriors, the Sims, etc… and not only that, you introduced me to a lot of really interesting stuff I wasn’t aware of (e.g., I loved your video about The Path - a super cool thing I had never heard of!)
    Anyway, I write all that to say:
    1) you should make videos about whatever you want to, because your passion for breaking down and talking about these subjects is clear in your videos and is a huge part of their appeal and reach,
    and
    2) I genuinely love your videos about the Sims and am always happy to hear you talk more about the series :) it was a huge part of my childhood, too (specifically 2 & 3).
    Anyway, thanks for all you do! Hope you continue to make videos about things you’re passionate about; I’ll be here to watch. :)

    Please don´t apologize for making sims videos, make as many as you want; they always make my day! I love them; I think I´ve watched all of them at least twice, and I could watch them again.
    Btw The Sims 3 World Adventures has always been my favourite expansion; it´s not the best but I loved it SO much, I had a blast playing like my sim was Indiana Jones exploring the Pyramids or the underground temples in China lmao. Also next to the pets I´d add the 4 Seasons expansion, no matter for which sims. I think it adds so much realism to the game. It was my first sims 2 expansion and the first expansion I bought for the sims 4 and just with that the experience changes so much, it truly is remarkable how the weather and the mood depending on it can make it so much more realistic. I never had it on sims 3 and I always noticed its absence.

  • @TheDawnofVanlife
    @TheDawnofVanlife 17 дней назад +8

    I love that you are covering all of the games and cracking some of those rose tinted glasses about the past. That being said, city living for sims 4 has run down apartments with mice and noisy neighbors who’s doors you have to bang on as well as beautiful penthouses for when you can move out of that crappy apartment and move up in the world. Tho I would still rank Sims 2 as doing apartment life overall best.
    As for active careers, I don’t think EVERY career needs to be active, my Sim who has an office job can just go to the office, I’ll see them when they get back. In fact, I like a mix of rabbit hole filler jobs and fun stuff that actually make sense as an active career. The detective career in Sims 4 COULD have worked if clue gathering was actually a thing and its not, the game just has a cycle of random things they throw at you and make it easy for anyone to be a detective. I think active careers should be inherently more challenging, like mini rpg. Tho I think a lot of the non-get to work active careers actually are fun to play. I got Get Famous on a lark in sale just cause I wanted the fame system for my musically talented sim. But decided to play with the active acting career and for a week I was literally obsessed and I still come back to it for some Sims. The Scientist career is also litterally the best thing in the Get to Work pack as it actually has progression that goes some fun places. I am still mad they have nursing as a lower stage of the doctor career as being a nurse and being a doctor are two different jobs and in 2024, we should know better.
    If all school and careers are active, then you are going to be missing someone’s day as most people get married and have kids in sims, I find too many active things get frustrating after awhile. As you have to pick and choose who you care to work on progressing the most. When I follow the active high school day I find my parent Sims just get left to their own devices a lot. Same with university if the Sim lives at home. In Sims 4, I think the failure with active high school was also the focus on classes over activities. I’d rather follow my sims to activities and clubs over class. I think this is something Sims 4 university was better at then Sims 4 High School Years. Class as a rabbit hole is totally fine for me, but an active school with club rooms and club activities would be fun.
    Also, by your sims “can’t go to the hospital” when they are preggers (Sims 4) do you mean for checkups or birth cause you can def give birth at the hospital if you have “get to work”. I usually have my babies at home now tho cause the trip isn’t worth it. You go, if you bring your partner a lot of time your partner/other baby parent/spouse gets distracted and wanders off to play on the computer or get snacks and your doc uses a weird machine to pluck the baby out, then you, the baby, and (if they came) the baby’s other parent just teleport home. There is no “experience” at the hospital that makes it worth going. Might as well stand in front of the bassinet and do it at home.

    Island Paradise was my fave Sims 3 expansion (I had them all except showtime), but I don't really remember playing in the Isla Paradiso world at all. I had earlier downloaded a custom world by fagersims called Enekjaer Island, it's this super cute (and really nicely made) Scandinavian-inspired island. The world was made before IP came out and so i had a lot of fun adding the IP content to the world, adding coral reefs, a dock or two, and I loved building houseboats. I didn't have any of the issues you mentioned that I recall, but it probably helped that I wasn't using the Isla Paradiso world. Later I would visit some islands outside Stockholm in Sweden and I instantly remembered Enekjaer, I had such nostalgia walking around Swedish islands I'd never been to before, lol. fagersims really did such a great job, if you still play Sims 3 I definitely recommend it, it's still up for download.

    One of them glitched in the Create A Sim section by turning into a glitched Slenderman. I was so terrified I jumped out of my chair and ran out of the room. Then I was too scared to close the program out, so I had to navigate the computer screen with my eyes half closed.
    All of this happened with two Japanese temporary transfer students in the living room with me, with no context as to what just happened. All they saw was a preteen freaking out when 10 minutes ago they were having the happiest day of their life.
    I refused to open the game up for a very, very long time.
