I've never looked into the legacy challenge, and I guess I'm sort of doing that, but with an entire neighborhood? I have a neighborhood I built from scratch, and the little families all have kids that are growing up together. My first batch of kids is getting ready to go to college/enter the workforce. I've got eight kids like that and then seven coming up behind them. I like this way of playing, because a bunch of these kids grew up together and are best friends, and it's cute. I like that they all have life long connections. One day some of them will get married and have children and then I'll be on generation three of my legacy. It's a fun way to play, it feels like a soap opera. If I get tired of one house, I just go play a different house. Mad scientist house? Actor/sports star house? The house with the single mom who builds furniture and her weird kid whose obsessed with fishing? I'll play whoever I want! I think it's interesting to see how other people play The Sims. I feel like we all sort of assume most people play it like we do, but there are so many different styles!
I know this is a base game guide but if you have City Living, you can get a cowplant berry at the Spice Festival when you harvest the plants there. It's where I usually pick up my cowplant berries. The Sylvan Glade is a great place to get them through fishing. I was trying to complete the fish collection recently and I needed a fish that's specifically found in the Glade and my Sim caught four cowplant berries in 10 minutes. By the way the Not-So-Berry challenge isn't Base Game exclusive.
Thank you so much for the great tips Sabrina!! Defs the Spice Festival is great for getting cowplant berries! And apologies about the Not So Berry Challenge, bit of an oversight on my part!
I love your positive attitude about the game. So many point out short comings but you really do see the glass half full with sharing how there really is a lot of details there for players to work with. P.s. I hope the mischief trait computer interactions are in part two. I have a family that makes all their income as a scamming center. They use mischief interactions as well as paint from reference to make knock off art and other non base game options to scam sims out of their simoleans
Everyone is saying that the ' Not So Berry' challenge is not compatible with base game (which is true) however, there are rewrites out there that are made to be compatible with base game, and are just as fun! Highly suggest you look into it!
Another really interesting challenge is to play as already existing household but change households every sims week. That way townies are connected more with other sims, have children and have skills rather than growing old and dying. It's fun and has ton of drama in it
I kinda wish being a plant sim was a bit more semi-permanent…or treating it like a werewolf/vampire/spellcaster where once you become one, it’s permanent, but you can become human or the supernatural relatively easily
The museum idea is really nice! I really like this idea of gathering stuff through generations, even tho I haven't put that into practice yet (I forget haha) I think that having your sims build a whole city, say, Newcrest, would be cool too! Even tho you can't own community lots, you can always keep a record of how much was spent to build a lot and then subtract that from your family's funds or something. And oh, the grilled cheese aspiration... I keep forgeting about it! Dang it haha, thanks for reminding me of it's existence
I don't currently play sims 4 (it comes and goes in phases) but I still watch and like all your videos because your content is incredibly high quality and you deserve the attention! X
This is awesome! There are very little base game ideas and none of them are as good as yours! This was so interesting and informative, engaging and so much fun to watch! I hope to implement these ideas into my game.
I never really knew what aspirations did lol, I didn't know we could get extra interactions from those. The Sims Team are so lazy at showcasing the actual gameplay possibilities. I don't think there would be much negativity if they made creative lots, interesting and established characters, added more specific tips about aspirations (like if we gave a sim a related trait or job, maybe it should just be automatically matched with an aspiration), so we didn't have to do everything from scratch everytime we start a save and then forget to do things because we forgot they exist lol.
Hmmmm, grilled cheese was served at school for lunch today and tonight we are having grilled cheese and bacon..... if I eat too, perhaps I will get the grilled cheese aspiration!
SIMPLE "INSIDE OUT" CHALLENGE 1 household, RELATED. Create Joy, Anger, Fear, Sadness, and Bing Bong, And Riley. Joy(Cheerful, Outgoing, Good)= Health job Fear(Socially awkward, clumsy,any)= at home job Anger(Hot-Headed,Mean,Self-absorbed)=physical job Sadness(Gloomy,Creative,Loner)= creative job Bing Bong (Goofball, Childish, Outgoing)= Comedian job Teen/Child Riley(Any)= Any Challenge: Experience how all the household helps to raise Riley. See who she becomes. CAN NOT PLAY AS EMOTIONS AT ALL. Can play as Bing Bong or Riley. HAVE FUN! Came up with it in a dream.
Another good one, which ties into the fitness fanatic thing is to create a max body size sim & start a weight loss journey! Or on the flip side, start a weight gain journey lol
I just made a science museum coz of this video! Trying to figure out where I can place those big skills items like the microscope and a science museum is such a good idea! 🥳
this was a cool guide, but the official version of the not so berry challenge needs more than just the base game, though you could probably adapt it to only use base game stuff
I love all these ideas. I’m building a save game with my friends in them and different gameplays for each friend would defintely be something I’d want to do!
Orchids. Plant about 50 ASAP and after a Simweek money will never be an issue, you can hire a gardener and maid after that. If you suck at building you can buy any lot and pretty much any home from other creators and customize it any way you want after a Sim month of selling orchids. Don't even get a job until then, just run around every map collecting and selling random plants and treasures, eat at the park and couch surf at other Sim's houses. Most of my Sims start off homeless and living off the kindness of others, busking with a guitar helps too but they all end up with $9,999,999 in no time at all. Then I build an entire neighbourhood and stock it full of characters from the Gallery and give them full autonomy, goals, the ability to have babies, fix objects, adopt, switch jobs or not, age up or not, die, etc then let them live their best (or not) lives while my Sim finally gets a real job and starts playing the game for themself.
Well I'm huge fan of sims 4 but never able to get a single dlc but I started collecting my money for a year my parents didn't allow me to get pocket money and I too didn't really want get I start collecting money and buy all th 75+ doc heheh😅
Im trying to make a cult in the base game and the grilled cheese thing might be an area of study for some of my high priests Now that im typing this out ive realised how insane it is. But we're too deep now.
I made that one from scratch but it's based in the fashion district. Behind the scenes it's a bit of a mess of a build lol... like the upstairs and backyard isn't finished. So it still needs work to be honest.
Always giving me stuff to do in the Sims handsome... If only you could gimme something to do in person, eeeeowwww. I jest, but another great/informative video sir! xo
Challenge 1: Set Sim lifespan to short and attempt to complete / max out every aspiration, career, and skill. Challenge 2: Live as a bum. Set money to zero, start on an empty lot and you can't build walls or rooms. Live off the land, use public facilities, and good luck getting good sleep.
@@GK-ob1ni You make a good point, but this is my honest opinion about how other people play. The whole point of playing challenges is...well, challenge! So where's the challenge if you're cheating?
@@drjawesome8278 I get that - and I even agree, to a point, but I don't see why that should stop you from doing a challenge yourself. You can't even see these people playing, you're just assuming they're all cheating and choosing to let their play style dictate how you play the game. Even if everyone is cheating, why do you care? It has nothing to do with you and doesn't impact your game in any way. I just think it's very unhealthy to live your life by mirroring what other people do instead of developing your own personality and making your own choices based on what's right for you rather sitting back and letting others decide what you should or shouldn't do. My advice to you would be to stop looking at what everyone else is doing and focus on yourself. I'm sorry if that comes across in a negative way, but I'm genuinely trying to help you. Don't be so easily manipulated.
@@GK-ob1ni Thanks for the advice, and in general, I wish other people were like me; not just simmers. By the way, when I say people are cheating, I mean I see the RUclips simmers cheat. The image on the screen changes in the blink of an eye, so they must have cut the camera. That makes me wonder what they did while the camera was off; like using cheats or mods to raise their sims' needs. If they insist on playing that way, they could at least not hide it from us.
@@drjawesome8278 Oh, I see what you mean. When that happens I just assume they're editing out the boring bits when not much is happening (like when their sims are sleeping, for example), to keep the video from being too long. Hopefully, that's all it is and not something more cheaty.

Was about to comment that about Not so berry challenge. It requires some packs
Thank you so much for the great tips Sabrina!! Defs the Spice Festival is great for getting cowplant berries! And apologies about the Not So Berry Challenge, bit of an oversight on my part!
I really need to have my Sim visit the Spice Festival more often in that case.
There is a basegame version for the not so berry challenge
I love your positive attitude about the game. So many point out short comings but you really do see the glass half full with sharing how there really is a lot of details there for players to work with.

The knock off art idea is brilliant haha!
exactly the reason I subscribed to this channel

Your game play idea videos are my favorite! They really keep me interested in the game.
Aww yay I am so glad you like them Renee :). Thanks for the kind comment!
Just a fyi The Not So Berry Challange is not base game compatible! It requires careers, traits, and skills from other packs! Great ideas though! c:
Apologies for the oversight Elizabeth! Thank you for pointing that out and the nice comment :)
I don’t have many packs so I looked up “not so berry challenge base game” and I found many rewrites if anyone else wants to try the challenge
SIMPLE "INSIDE OUT" CHALLENGE
1 household, RELATED.

Joy(Cheerful, Outgoing, Good)= Health job
Fear(Socially awkward, clumsy,any)= at home job

Came up with it in a dream.
The legacy challenge is all I ever do 😂 while trying find cool stuff to do on the side
I'm not a beginner player but it sure feels like it.
Another good one, which ties into the fitness fanatic thing is to create a max body size sim & start a weight loss journey! Or on the flip side, start a weight gain journey lol
I just made a science museum coz of this video! Trying to figure out where I can place those big skills items like the microscope and a science museum is such a good idea! 🥳
I was literally JUST looking for a video like this yesterday. How are you reading my mind? 😂
Ahahaha one of my many talents :). I joke, but we do love this coincidence haha
“You can’t go wrong when there’s cheese involved” darling my intestines disagree😭😂
Thanks! I only have a base game, so I’m looking for more ideas.
I love the smooth transitions between ideas.
this was a cool guide, but the official version of the not so berry challenge needs more than just the base game, though you could probably adapt it to only use base game stuff
I couldn't hit play fast enough! Love your videos ^.^
Awe shucks thank you so much Tim!!
Currently doing the Eeveelution Legacy; just finished the Eevee Gen and now her affair child the youngest twin is going to be next for Vaporeon Gen
I love to watch your videos and awesome tips about the game Petey. Thank you ❤
Another informative video. Keep up the great work and have an amazing day!
Thank you so much k mraz! Hope you have a 15/10 day as well :D
I love all these ideas. I’m building a save game with my friends in them and different gameplays for each friend would defintely be something I’d want to do!
I love creating a legacy game and including royals is a fun way in winderbug
Wait, there is a hidden world accessible via the big tree next to my poverty-stricken sim's house...WTF?
Willow Creek is the best!
So many great ideas!! Thanks!!
Thank you, I had no idea about these things in the game
Appreciate your guilds. Find them very helpful.
I’ve had the sims for a few years. I’m only 2 minutes in and I already had no idea about all these cool secrets 😅
Thank you so much your videos have been very helpful
Thank you for the kind words Linda :)
Another idea: make a sim museum and paint them :D
"which will make the cow plant devour you almost as fast as i devour lasagna" same,with all kinds of spaghetti too
Great video as always.
Thank you so much Lissette :D
How can I get more objects for the base game? You have so many different things like the couch and the oven..
"Say - Cheeeese!" ;)
Orchids. Plant about 50 ASAP and after a Simweek money will never be an issue, you can hire a gardener and maid after that. If you suck at building you can buy any lot and pretty much any home from other creators and customize it any way you want after a Sim month of selling orchids.

Well I'm huge fan of sims 4 but never able to get a single dlc but I started collecting my money for a year my parents didn't allow me to get pocket money and I too didn't really want get I start collecting money and buy all th 75+ doc heheh😅
Im trying to make a cult in the base game and the grilled cheese thing might be an area of study for some of my high priests
Now that im typing this out ive realised how insane it is. But we're too deep now.
Great Leader says Cheese knows best. Trust in the Cheese. Your life belongs to the Cheese.
How do we accomplish building a glass sided pool?
Use the wall-sized windows.
I don’t know why but i can’t breed frogs :( like i don’t have that option
"You can never go wrong when there's cheese involved"
Lactose intolerant people: 💀
Ahahahah such a fair call lol
Witch penthouse do you use in some of your videos mainly the k pop one
I made that one from scratch but it's based in the fashion district. Behind the scenes it's a bit of a mess of a build lol... like the upstairs and backyard isn't finished. So it still needs work to be honest.
@@PeteyPlaysIt is it on the gallery
Does anyone know what cc is that computer at @10:50? The one that the girl sim was using?
Always giving me stuff to do in the Sims handsome... If only you could gimme something to do in person, eeeeowwww.
I jest, but another great/informative video sir! xo
Ahahaha thank you for the awesome comment Daniel :D
I miss the Plantsims from The Sims 3.
I think selling cupcakes is GTW-only
Heads up! You can't actually play Not So Berry with only base game. It actually uses a lot of packs. :(
Apologies for this Blueberry! Yes it was a slip up on my end there to include that!
if a vampire eat a plantsim fruit stuff , he die or recharge?
Sims 4 : * have a sketch pad that can draw stuff by taking a picture *
That one guy with whicked whims:
when he said soos chef 😭
You need packs for the not so berry challenge.
So i can go to space in base game but . . . . no rain . . . or weather in general
Challenge 1: Set Sim lifespan to short and attempt to complete / max out every aspiration, career, and skill.
Challenge 2: Live as a bum. Set money to zero, start on an empty lot and you can't build walls or rooms. Live off the land, use public facilities, and good luck getting good sleep.
Go Petey!!!
Awe shucks thank you Alexandra!!
❤
I didn’t look through all your videos and I can’t find anything with the music in the entertainment career
These are some good suggestions, but what's the point in doing challenges if everyone else cheats at them?
Why do you care what other people are doing in their game? Why not just play your game your way and let other people play the game their way?

The space ship broke when downloading cottage living
there's a mod to fix this. Sucks that ea hasn't fix it yet, it's been long time since the bug occurs
The not so berry is not base game firendly
why this game has transgender sims?
Did you just say "sous" with the last S? It's pronounced "sue".
Nah. Just nah. S4 is absolutely unplayable in every aspect.
