      It is cheating. What's the point of a "challenge" if you're going to find a work around to make it easier.. At that point, it's not a challenge. Same as creating a challenge just to speed through the whole process. Making non genuine relationships or forcing them just to take a sim to prom or date them. Then, changing the rules for high school grades because of not doing it properly and realizing later on how it should've been done. It's cheating regardless. If you're making it easier to do, it's cheating and a parent dying of a toddler during a toddler play date should be considered a failed challenge. It should be added to the rules. No parent of any child your sim or sim's child knows can die or you failed the challenge.

    • @christineblomeier
      @christineblomeier Месяц назад +6

      ​​@@CharXP I mean you're not technically wrong but a little bit of cheating is sometimes more fun then an insufferable lot of eating sleeping feeding repeat and not getting to do any challenge related stuff cause you're busy keeping your sims alive, especially to watch. Like playing for yourself sure why not everybody can play the sims however much "cheaty" or not as they like but on youtube it would probably just take like 50 parts and get boring REAL quick
      Also I get it's not ideal in real life but how would a parent dying during a toddler play date mean this task (that is not even a main goal but only a fun side quest) is failed? Like the toddlers met, the toddlers played, that's a toddler play date to me😅 also I think a parent dying just adds to the chaos we all love so much
      And why would it have to be a rule that no parent of your kids can die? I mean how would you even prevent that like they're not in your household they can go die all they want😅

    TOOL Mod Tip: In case this happens again, if you encounter a snow pile glitch in your room and can't move it out of the way. You can actually use your TOOL Mod and shift+click on it, toggle move object and move it out of your Sim's way. To move toggled object, just click on wherever you want the object to be moved, then you can access your room again. Also, the good thing about the TOOL Mod is, you can also use it on your Sims. For example, if a Sim refuses to move out of your Sim's way and blocking the fridge or whatever, you can shift+click on them, toggle move object and done. Sometimes, you may need to reset the Sim that you want to move away before using the TOOL mod on them.

    I thought you would plan the toddler play date at the rec center, not outside. Too funny. Also, I think it would be fair if you made jewelry that fills needs for Semaj so he didn't need to eat or sleep, but let everyone else have regular needs that have to be filled. That would make it challenging but not impossible.

    Just got to baby number 4 in my challenge save. It’s definitely been interesting 😂. When the adult sim (or whoever is carrying the toddler) stalls in doing something, check the toddler’s task panel to see if they’re watching that sim… it happens quite often for me and when I cancel the “watching” task, the same holding the toddler can actually do what you tell them.

    First let me say, as a cat mother myself, i understand completely how estressful it is and I hope your little guy gets well as soon as possible...Por thing :')
    Secondly, you shouldnt have to apologize to anyone for how you choose to play or not; i think people forget that gaming streamers are just PLAYERS...and even if they are "pros" (making money for sharing how they play), they have lives outside this... You wouldnt expect a cashier or a fireman to make themselves and their whole lives available to you, right? Well, James doesnt even have to let us know something is going on with him if he doesnt want to, and if he wants to use something thats a feature IN GAME, and a feature put there with the intent to be used that way at that -, he can do it, cause he doesnt even cheat very much and barely uses the most common mods... not like if he used them would be bad, im here for the stories he tells and to get inspiration for my own gameplay xD
    Idk, i feel like James is constantly apologizing and explaining every little thing he does that helps him continue telling the story and I really feel like it's not that big a deal...It's not like modding/cheating is frowned upon on the sims...It's about telling stories!
    And James already challenges himself SO MUCH to find new challenges and ideas to do for US and then to complicate the gameplay and not always go "the easy way", idk if anyone has said anything in comments before cause i dont really interact that much on youtube aside liking videos, but i hope if you have read all this you maybe thought about this

    " To host a toddler play date you actually have to know toddlers, which is kind of weird" - As a parent that made me laugh. It's obvious to me that you don't randomly host an open-invitation playdate at your house to meet toddlers, but it never occurred to me that the concept of a playdate isn't common knowledge.
    edit: I get it now that James was referring to it being weird in the sims because you don't have any other ways to meet toddles easily, but I misunderstood and it made me think of people hosting toddler open houses which made me chuckle 😆

    • @JamesTurnerYT

      Well yeah in real life that makes sense, but in the sims 4, there’s really no easy way to meet other toddlers easily. You either have to make them yourself, or like I did search every house to find them.
      Or there’s making a club and only allowing toddlers.

    They should really add a lot trait for "Toddler Time" or something like it, that could be applied to Rec Centers or parks, where there are toddler interactable objects, and Sims with toddlers show up, just like the teen hangout, and university hangout ones do. It would be incredibly helpful for building long term childhood friendships, and much more realistic. Toddlerhood is when you really start getting out in the world with your kid, interacting with other toddlers, especially at rec centers. There are so many mommy-and-me classes, where your kid meets other little ones, and they can then do play dates. Sims team, please make this a thing! Also, toddlers and children really SHOULD be able to "play together" on objects, like they could in TS2 & I assume, TS3.

    Gardening's gonna be hard in the winter, so you might want to shelter them. Also, there's a bug with plants that are out of season, where they get weeds and bugs, but can't be tended to. So long as you're tending the garden, I think it's fair to allow weeds to be cheated away when the plant is out of season

    Just put the crystal in the house!! It holds charge for two full days, you don't need to keep charging it the way you do currently - put it in the hallway so it reaches as many rooms as possible. Then charge only when you need to - the one night it spends charging won't be long enough to make everyone's needs abysmal, so it should help in the long run if you do it this way!
    Edit: Also yay! I asked about the wheels on..I think it was the previous video, so I'm excited you made them publicly accessible! I found some good ones on my own but they were a pain to get every time so this will help immensely, and also make my own run of the challenge work a bit more like yours, which is what I wanted :D
