    Watching this really makes me wish EA would add a bunch of modern furniture to the base game. The quality of the newer assets is miles ahead of where it started. The original base game item aesthetic looks like it’s from someone’s grandmother’s house. The developer made houses are always so ugly because it’s always whatever the new aesthetic is mixed with grandmother. And not in a cute granny chic kind of way. Just dusty and sad

    This is supposed to be the Tinkers house, isn't it? This is a gorgeous version that maintains it's original style. I always felt this house didn't fit the Tinkers personalities. I redid it once to reflect the family better. This has given me an urge to redo my redo.

      I completely agree. I've always felt that the house fits neither the neighbourhood, nor the characters. I'd never actually considered the idea of it being old, and then developed around, so I think i'll use that. Perhaps they bought it at auction as a fixer upper and Tina is doing a green renovation. It still does seem like a very small lot for the style of house though.

    i've got "juice" goggles on tonight and at first glance i saw the original EA build and thought "oh it's not the worst, at least for them" but the more i looked at the details the angrier i got-- unrelated to their lot restrictions, there was no excuse for that initial roofing or window placement.
    i do love a good reno that improves the lot without completely changing the structure or aesthetic of the original build--i especially like the entrance hall, with the color of the rug and bookshelf contrasting with the walls.
    edit: idk if you've ever renovated StrangerVille Overlook before (you might've built a new house in its place in let's build the worlds for some original characters), but the inside of that house is so offensively ugly if you're looking for reno recommendations

    Honestly I didn’t want to watch because I knew it was this terrible house. Lol you got a like the moment we started the tour, couldn’t stop laughing as you pointed out every error on this build. But the yellow chair killed me. ☠️☠️

    Everytime I see this house I can't help but cringe, then I cringe again realizing someone built this on purpose. Excellent job fixing this montrosity.

    I would love to see you renovate the monstrous green house EA build for the parenthood pack. Its not placed anywhere, but it is in your library under "commodious residence". Its... something.

    You just made realize 'Why' the single windows didn't get the color update! Darn it as I thought they were an over sight but instead not part of the base game.
