Really. I find myself screaming at the screen. he goes so flipping fast that he misses the obvious ALL THE TIME and makes it three times harder on himself.
Julia Danielsson They could've start to build a relationship so it would be easier for Angel to take Stephanie from Max but he probably just wasn't thinking of Angel at the time.
So, like, there's this guy in my neigbourhood who's pretty awkward. He's got, like, the worst character values. My parents hate him. But, like, my parents can't control me. And he's kind of cute, in a way. So anyway I asked him out to a restaurant, but he never wanted to go in??? He wanted to chat for a bit, and then he wanted to stargaze, which was cute. And he kept complaining about being hungry, but we never actually got food. So I was like "fuck this I'm going home I want food" so I went home. And then I thought you know, his family doesn't have a lot of money, maybe the restaurant was too expensive. I should have thought of that really. But we can still hang out at his, right? So I asked if I could come over, and he said yes, but when I got there he was in an absolutely AWFUL mood. He seemed so stressed, grumpy, kept complaining about how tired he was. Mind you, he always seems to be tired, like he has some kind of sleeping problem or something... anyway he got this day-old plate of fried eggs out of the fridge, and offered me some. I'd already eaten but I didn't want to be rude so I took some. He sat down in the kitcken, but like the kitchen was absolutely DISGUSTING. Like there were stinking plates of food that had been left out for days, and the sink was broken and water was gushing out into a puddle on the floor. I don't want to be snobby or anything but, like, I can't eat in a room like that. So gross. So I went upstairs and chatted with his family.
I love that Stephanie is so uninterested in Max she's chatting with a random dude while they're having their first kiss lol. I like to think she invited Max on the date just because she knew he likes her and wanted to make him happy (after all, she's the perfect daughter from the perfect family, I imagine her being very kind and not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings) but she secretly likes Angel, and she wanted to move things somewhere by going to his house after school (because Angel was asking if he could bring her over when you refused ;D) but since she couldn't come, she felt heartbroken and then said to herself "oh well, I can at least date his brother" so that's why she agreed to be the girlfriend of Max. Buut then Angel explains to her that it was just his weird parents not wanting her over, they will start dating, and Max will have his heart shattered and will never recover from this heartbreak, aand we know the rest... lol, yep, I look to much into it, and yep, I have no life :'D
This series is great! It's so nice to see you focusing more on storyline and your sims relationships and personality, not just grinding for skills or money. But like, still doing a challenge/having a goal at the same time. I feel like that's the best combo for a sims lp! Also: I loove their house, it's so quirky. It's awesome.
Julia Danielsson And yet, Super Sim Challenge is all about getting level 10 in all of the skills and completing all of the aspirations to get all of the bonus traits & to get potions of youth to have the super sim stay young.
Make max blowup the house at his birthday as a goodbye to his family and make an episode in the super sim challenge which max sees his brother and Stephanie married after a long time , like so James can see
Maybe they're vampires. Maybe Stephanie's family have been vampires all this time, and that's why they're so perfect. When Stephanie marries Angel, she turns him into a vampire too so they can be immortal. That's what inspires Max to be immortal too, he says "fuck this I can be immortal too but I don't need any of that vampire stuff I'm gonna be immortal just by being so satisfied by my own achievements that I can literally bottle youth and drink it." But then over time he sees Angel and Stephanie living their vampiric lives, and he's still jealous. So he decides to become a vampire too, and be even better at being a vampire than Angel.
On his birthday have max set off fireworks. That can be the catalyst for him getting kicked out and going out to be the best sim ever to prove to his family that he's better than them.
LMAO 'Angel would like to invite Stephanie over' James: (without reading it properly) 'NO!' James: 'Okay we need somewhere without distractions for this date...' selects a nightclub full of dozens of other sims. "WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PEOPLE HERE? JEEZ!' James: 'WHY ARE YOU JUST SITTING THERE??' (Keeps fast forwarding time for another 4 hours without resetting the sim). I think James losing it at Sims and making daft decisions is the funniest thing. :D :D
Please put Max's bed in the separate room on the top floor and drape a curtain over the archway or something. It'd give him so much more privacy for, you know, _using tissues_ or something like that
I agree. Max is having a pretty awful life at the moment he should at least be able to use his tissues without his parents walking in to watch his TV or use his bathroom. No wonder he's so tense all the time! Let the boy relax and use his tissues in peace.
OOOh now Max is addicted to moodlet solvers / potions of youth assuming they're made from similar stuff, and he drinks more and more trying to relive that night with Stephanie, and that leads him to living forever.
I'm going to miss this series when it's done! It's my favorite one that you've done so far. Are you planning a rags to riches series with owning a vet clinic?
James: Ugh the sims wont do what I tell them they take forever Also James:I need to slow down the speed the game is breaking Also James:*is always on second or third speed*
I dub this "the episode where James officially lost it." XD I mean, I know you've been frustrated with this family in the past, but MAN, I don't think it's EVER reached this level of pain before. Then again, Max's needs have never been this consistently low before. . .at least it was good for FINALLY getting his emotional control over the line! Though just barely. . .I hope one of the last episodes has him smash a few things or throw a few more tantrums to properly seal the deal. Gotta make sure he's terrible, after all! And oh jeez, I know ALL ABOUT mixed signals with my Sims. I've recently only just gotten over a struggle between two Sims who apparently liked each other, but kept randomly refusing flirts and such. At least the important bit -- Stephanie being Max's girlfriend is over. Now to make the last two days of Max's teenager "years" the worst ever via his brother. XD
It drives me nuts every time they have a mood swing because they stop what they are doing. Espically when I'm trying to get them to eat, sleep, do homework, go to school.
We just got hit by hurricane Irma. We have no power it is 90 degrees in our house and could be weeks before our power gets turned back on. Yet here I am using my very little battery life on watching my favorite LP.
I feel like maxes whole family either dies in a fair at the end, explaining why they're not in super sim , or they all move away without him to the new world coming. That creates a traumatic experience for max also explains why he's so heartless in the challenge.. ehhh??
There is a bug where if you ask them to do ANYTHING in a que with a command to pay the bills on their phone, they seem to never do it. You can que it up on the computer and it will work, but if you use the phone, they cannot have anything else to do but that.
Plot twist... She doesn't end up loving him so he either 1. Gets together with her mom and becomes her stepdad... Or 2.. he lures her down to the basement, keeps her there til she dies because if he can't have her...no one will..
I feel like killing Max would be great for the story. Max dies as a teenager, he was terrible, and then his parents have to work to bring him back to life, and from then on he's obsessed with immortality and mastering everything, now that he knows whats on the other side waiting for him.
So there's some sort of bug with paying the bills. I get it too. If you ask them to do anything after they are told to pay bills before they finish they quit paying the bills to do the other action.
James. Stop. Fast. Forwarding. So. Much. It causes the game to freak out and Sims get stuck (like Max sitting st the table for hours while you were on 2x speed) and it's super hard to tell what's going on. I LOVE this let's play, but speeding things up so much just causes more problems.
Whenever you leave the home lot, all sims left at home get reset once you get back. I've been annoyed by this problem for a couple of months already. It makes me not want to leave the lot with a sim unless all others are at work/school.
In the last episode you asked for a way to get sims to leave the conversation. An extreme way to do it is to install the "teleport any sim" mod (andrews studio) which gives you the option to click on a sim "just go away!" And they will instantly leave the area. I use it for ugly townies but it workd well for this too 😂
James you're getting less options because the Sims 4 social menu algorithm is ridiculous, but there is an option in the game settings to switch it to the Sims 3 style of social menu where all the options are displayed or more pop up in a way that makes sense.
Some day James will realize that having a yellow moodlet makes flirting pretty much impossible EVERY time. I know I've mentioned this before... many times. 😂😂
It’s pretty amazing how James is still so terrible at dating in the Sims after all this time 😂 I mean if this all was acting, then it was PERFECT! But something tells me they were some very genuine fails! 🤣
Is there someone who can help me? My sisters and I play the sims and have different households. I try to tell her not to play because when she plays with another household my sims are busy aging up but I don't want that to happen is there a setting I can change?
lilmissmuah, okay so open up Sims 4 and into either the family or world selection. Click on the triple dots in the corner to open the menu and select game options. Select gameplay. Here you can toggle your aging. You can have it off for everyone, on, auto age unplayed Sims or have only the active household age. That way your sister's Sims can age buts yours will not. Don't forget to select Apply Changes down the bottom afterwards. Think that's everything you need to know :)
Why don't you ever read the name of the classmate they wanna invite over tho? Angel was trying to invite Stephanie over, it would have been perfect!!
Really. I find myself screaming at the screen. he goes so flipping fast that he misses the obvious ALL THE TIME and makes it three times harder on himself.
Julia Danielsson They could've start to build a relationship so it would be easier for Angel to take Stephanie from Max but he probably just wasn't thinking of Angel at the time.
Julia Danielsson he might not have even noticed since he kept calling her Sophie anyways😂

And you just gave character to a sim. This was delightful to read, honestly.
That was great, honestly. Such a good point.
I love that Stephanie is so uninterested in Max she's chatting with a random dude while they're having their first kiss lol.

"ACCEPT THE FLIRT" -James, 2017
Pheonix B this would make the best awkward t-shirt ever 😂
Stephanie is literally a ghost, appearing and disappear when it's inconvenient
Sums up my ex

The Great ParQur They would be dead by now you would think.....unless there also drinking Potions of Youth
EP1CxEMAN08 You never know 😉😂

Every interaction between Stephanie and Max is like pulling teeth. Slow, painful, and kinda awkward.
A video about parenthood and an awful teenager, and I had an ad about condoms and unwanted pregnancy ;)
On his birthday have max set off fireworks. That can be the catalyst for him getting kicked out and going out to be the best sim ever to prove to his family that he's better than them.
LMAO

james screaming and yelling at the sims just makes the series better and better
Angel is tense all the time but on the outside he looks like he has it all together, Deep.
I love that it asked if Angel could invite Stephanie over and James said no.
Shoving others and breaking dollhouses/school projects works a lot better than throwing tantrums
I'm going to miss this series when it's done! It's my favorite one that you've done so far.
Are you planning a rags to riches series with owning a vet clinic?
Makes Angel own it and him marrying Stephanie
Actually Flower owning a vet would be pretty cute I think. She's been pretty ignored
Flower being the vet owner would be cute! But I would miss the bigwallets... maybe she could marry into that family?
What about the max sister who have no personality or story line? What she will be/do?
Alexandra Prundis i agree he should start doing her storyline
She should eventually be given the restaurant if they ever get it
Alexandra Prundis do the grass roots challenge with her !
Capricorn 1 what's that?
Pascal Schehlmann search Zylria and grassroots challenge then she explains the rules in the first intro episode
I KEEP SCREAMING JUST LET MAX GO TO BED JUST LET HIM YOU'LL HAVE FUN, BATH LATER
James: Ugh the sims wont do what I tell them they take forever
Also James:I need to slow down the speed the game is breaking
Also James:*is always on second or third speed*

The game is so stupid Max just walked past his bed and passed out on floor.
Will Whale I had a sim literally sit on the toilet and then stood up and peed herself.
Danielle Snider Lmao.
Will Whale similar to mine it got out of bed to pass out
It drives me nuts every time they have a mood swing because they stop what they are doing. Espically when I'm trying to get them to eat, sleep, do homework, go to school.
We just got hit by hurricane Irma. We have no power it is 90 degrees in our house and could be weeks before our power gets turned back on. Yet here I am using my very little battery life on watching my favorite LP.
Me too XD
Jessie Reissman this was me after Harvey😂😂😂
Jessie Reissman Glad I'm not alone...but my power got turned back on after 18 hours
EP1CxEMAN08 ugh we are still without power since 8pm Sunday night and they are saying days more.
James, the time limit on food goes up if you put it in the fridge, even if it just has an hour left when it's on the counter.
You were crafting furniture so you could board up the window to angel's room
Gotta admit, I love how James sabotages himself. With literally everything. 😂
Have really been enjoying watching 👀 this series all these years later ... its Great
I feel like maxes whole family either dies in a fair at the end, explaining why they're not in super sim , or they all move away without him to the new world coming. That creates a traumatic experience for max also explains why he's so heartless in the challenge.. ehhh??
Galacticy So much time have passed in the Super Sim Challenge, They would be dead already anyways
There is a bug where if you ask them to do ANYTHING in a que with a command to pay the bills on their phone, they seem to never do it. You can que it up on the computer and it will work, but if you use the phone, they cannot have anything else to do but that.
anyone else gets tilted sideways by the teenage sims constantly fucking around on their phone while talking to other sims?
Everyone in the comments watching James struggle is thinking "shoulda picked my family, James, shoulda picked mine" 😂
I can feel james temple pulsating through out this video
You could lock Max's door so nobody uses his bathroom.
Plot twist... She doesn't end up loving him so he either 1. Gets together with her mom and becomes her stepdad... Or 2.. he lures her down to the basement, keeps her there til she dies because if he can't have her...no one will..
Shelly Pacman That went for 1 to 100 real quick. xD
Ryland Kyle gotta have drama and options :D
Shelly Pacman I love both of these more than I should. xD
I feel like killing Max would be great for the story. Max dies as a teenager, he was terrible, and then his parents have to work to bring him back to life, and from then on he's obsessed with immortality and mastering everything, now that he knows whats on the other side waiting for him.
he is so bad at playing this game i legit get anxiety looking at his sims needs. love you tho xD
And this is why James will never do the 100 Baby Challenge.
I love that you don't edit anything out, I love it this way! Keep up the good work! 😄
U sound just like me when my sims don't listen 😂I get soooo intense 😆👍
James cracks me up
*How about Flower being the one who steals Stephanie from both brothers* (mwahahaha) ...?
Just an idea ^^ Loving this series!
Flower is way to young, good idea though! :)
She's about to age up ;)
Gold, just gold
James, will you upload the house to gallery as it will be when you end the series?
So there's some sort of bug with paying the bills. I get it too. If you ask them to do anything after they are told to pay bills before they finish they quit paying the bills to do the other action.
James. Stop. Fast. Forwarding. So. Much. It causes the game to freak out and Sims get stuck (like Max sitting st the table for hours while you were on 2x speed) and it's super hard to tell what's going on. I LOVE this let's play, but speeding things up so much just causes more problems.
watching this post-series is so painful, especially knowing how he abuses moodlet solvers that seem to not exist in this game for max.
The STRESS
Whenever you leave the home lot, all sims left at home get reset once you get back. I've been annoyed by this problem for a couple of months already. It makes me not want to leave the lot with a sim unless all others are at work/school.
I laughed so much, watching this 😂 James getting stressed out lol 🙂
you should set the fireworks in the shed off right before he turns into a young adult so he can go out with a bang
get it
im trash
Watching this series with the dirty house + Sims who don’t do anything makes me so stressed. Maybe even more than James lol
Lol James you were super tensed in this video😂😂
james, the classmate was stephanieee
You did better with the mother haha
The frustration was real in this episode but luckily it all worked out!
James you really need to read up on coming on too strongly :')
You should have max be gay like he is in the beginning of the series and the flower steals Max's boyfriend 😂😂😂
This is a good idea, but by the time flower is a teenager, max will be a young adult, there is just too much of an age difference. :(
Watching Sims while playing Sims
Heyy new episode! Happy Monday!
If u have reward points u can get his energy up
This LP really seems to test James' limits of patience. ;)
this is the "Completely Pays Attention to One Person in a Family then Complains For Half an Hour on how Things Aren't Working" the series
Lmfaooo @ “whataya want from mehh” 😂
Oh Max...
The conflict resolution is hard to get to the other side, when your sim is a teenager.
In the last episode you asked for a way to get sims to leave the conversation. An extreme way to do it is to install the "teleport any sim" mod (andrews studio) which gives you the option to click on a sim "just go away!" And they will instantly leave the area. I use it for ugly townies but it workd well for this too 😂
You should play as Stephanie and have her ask Max to be just the friends... that will hurt 😂
In This Episode:
James learns why I always cheat relationships
Semaj! Max has to get fit before turning into an adult
James you're getting less options because the Sims 4 social menu algorithm is ridiculous, but there is an option in the game settings to switch it to the Sims 3 style of social menu where all the options are displayed or more pop up in a way that makes sense.
In my sims 4 game...paying the bills via phone never ever works, you need to go to the post box.
Some day James will realize that having a yellow moodlet makes flirting pretty much impossible EVERY time. I know I've mentioned this before... many times. 😂😂
I'm eating a tunn of bread right now watching this
Max did you really just say take out "Sophie"? Please someone confirm if I made that up?
This Cldve been so much easier if u wldve gotten the sleep drink from reward store or the fun drink,and u wldve been 👍😂😂😂
James, you had to learn this before. They cancel the pay bills interaction if anything else gets added to their queue.
So much Semaj rage 😂
It’s pretty amazing how James is still so terrible at dating in the Sims after all this time 😂 I mean if this all was acting, then it was PERFECT! But something tells me they were some very genuine fails! 🤣
I think even if he never gets the girl the story would work, either way Angels gets the girl and he doesn't.
He keeps calling her Sophie 😂
Hello max and James!
Is there someone who can help me? My sisters and I play the sims and have different households. I try to tell her not to play because when she plays with another household my sims are busy aging up but I don't want that to happen is there a setting I can change?
lilmissmuah it's under gameplay settings in the options menu.
tiana lloyd what is it called?
lilmissmuah, okay so open up Sims 4 and into either the family or world selection. Click on the triple dots in the corner to open the menu and select game options.
Select gameplay. Here you can toggle your aging. You can have it off for everyone, on, auto age unplayed Sims or have only the active household age. That way your sister's Sims can age buts yours will not.
Don't forget to select Apply Changes down the bottom afterwards.
Think that's everything you need to know :)
tiana lloyd thank you!
You're welcome
James get Angnes to make Large Abtract paintings they give the most money
Very good video🖒🖒
you cant do romance interactions after it get weird or else it would only get worse. do friendly stuff first!
Hilarious lp!😂😂😂👍
you can get a mod which fixes the [sims doing nothing for ages] thing.
Yay u did the rewards 😂👍👍
Hahaha Max does what he wants
Why don't you ever use the reward points to purchase the moodlet solver or flirty potion?
Geeeeeeez >.< Ur coming on to strong with him, you gotta take it slowwww
Poor James , He won't take care of his sims needs. So frustrating
Plz do the grass roots challenge with flower !
Watching this reaffirms my decision to not get TS4. The needs go down SO fast!
Kris B.
Nah. James is just bad at managing them
Use potions to help with needs
Please hire a one-time maid! This mess is actually starting to stress me out!
Clearly Max needs to find Teen Paolo!
