Finally someone else who says live mode the way I do! I thought I was going insane when I heard other people saying it. I always thought of it as "going live" - like live TV.
I can see an argument for both but it's definitely live as in 'living' to me, because you are 'living' the sims lives. I mean they both mean the same, we say 'going live' because metaphorically the thing that has gone live is 'living' now. That's also the pronunciation we use for the root word of them both 'alive'
Another depth thing I love is that when you throw a bday party for a sim’s kid, family sims will usually roll a want to have another baby. It’s almost like they are waiting for their first kid to age up, or like empty nest type of feeling seeing their kid grow up makes them want to have more kids. It’s just so cute and makes both the family sim and their kids and just the family aspect feel so real and like the bonds rlly matter in the game.
I remember forcing romance sims to settle down & automatically seeing their wants go towards things like divorce, death of certain sims, etc & loved the realism.
I literally have the salsa songs stuck in my head 24/7 after listening to it for years. I had these tunes engraved in my mind before I knew what salsa was. I forgot I could change the station so to me all sims just enjoy salsa music.
ngl i really miss your videos but let me tell you something. i know what you went through and i know that you’re not quite gotten over it yet. your health (and most importantly your mental health) is really important so you must take good care of yourself even if it means doing one vídeo a year. we want de best for you. (btw sorry if i made mistakes but english is not my first lenguage)
I wanted to add more Pleasantview Sims, so I ended up making the Tutorial family as Joey Simms and Jane Jones. They recently went on a trip to Twikki Island and Jane had the worst time: she got sunburnt, struck by lightning, and peed herself. On the last day, Joey proposed on the beach to a very sunburnt Jane. I think she was just happy the trip was over.
So happy you're back!!! Do not feel obligated to post certain things or a specific amount! We will support you no matter what! Seeing any notification from you makes so many of us happy!
I found most of the building tricks like ctrl-click by accident when playing, fun fact: you can ctrl+shift+click to delete a whole room of floor tiles and wallpaper too.
Fun fact. In The Sims 3, click Settings/Lessons, but don't choose any particular lesson. You'll see a Sim in an orange sweater that should be familiar to you by now. Another fun fact. Russian version of TS2, known for some quite ridiculous names, calls Tutorial Joe Sim "Vladimir Obuchalko", which is basically "Vlad McTutorialFace".
I think you're right, it's LIIIIIVE mode! I grew up playing the German version, and even there it's always "Live Modus". Notably, whenever the word "live" is used in German it's always the non-translated term for when something is being broadcasted in real time. If it was supposed to mean "to live" the button name would be translated as "Leben-Modus".
@@PizzaFreaak As a German player I can say it was however always "Live Modus" since the first game up til the most recent one. I can also confirm that the Sims games actually have a pretty good translation (expect for maybe having them change basically every Sims 1 Sim's name for literally no reason. Why changing names like Bella Goth into Julia von Spinnweb?! Bella wouldn't even be a super outlandish name over here :'D). So yeah, I somehow can't really see them doing a good job on basically everything and than making a mistake with just that one. Especially over several games.
It made my day to see you upload a video! Wow, I never even noticed there was a tutorial. Also I say "live mode" the same way, as in "this is happening live".
I also say live mode!! The first time I heard liv mode it totally threw me off. So happy to know someone else who says it like me😆 also I’m so happy you’re back! I hope you’re doing well💕
1:41 I never knew anyone called it anything different until now lol To me it's like "the simulation is now live" because whenever you go into Build or Buy the game aka simulation automatically pauses, so it's not 'live' anymore idk if that makes any sense but it does to me XD edit: oh ok lol you literally say more or less the exact same reasoning as me in fewer words XD
yes you're back! I recently started watching your Sims 2 let's plays and I love them so much, it's the most entertainment from a Sims Let's Play that I've seen it makes me want to start playing it
This tutorial is so fun! Glad to see you back on RUclips and hope you doing great! I really like Joe and Jane, might add them to my rotation. They deserve more memorys beside getting alive bc of a kiss :D
I missed your videos so much, glad you are back! I just love to listen to your voice in the background and after finishing this video I really want to play Sims 2 again haha
This is activating a memory of being 9 and playing the Sims 2 for the first time, being kind of confused because it was so much more complex than the Sims 1, and being SO excited about the potential of this new game.
You're back!! You look so great! I hope your path continues on a happy one, and remember to take time for yourself if you're not 100% ready, we will always wait
I say live mode too and I always will. 😌 Pressing play to me means the game is going live. I'm almost certain this is the same tutorial, if not very similar, to the one I did a few months back in Sims Pet Stories, but after I re-learned all the controls I stopped paying full attention to the rest of it lol.
I always say "live" mode(as in going live) too Cindy!!! And I had no idea you could use the space bar to toggle between sims! So cool! And so happy to see you❤❤❤❤❤❤
First thing I did as an 8 year old playing a game for the first time was to do this entire tutorial. I managed to even get attached to the characters, unless...I started experimenting with death types and debug cheats so I wouldn't have to kill off premade sims or risk entire neighborhoods, as the tutorial just resets itself every time you access it. It's wonderful to see you again Cindy, this brought so much nostalgia!
ah i'm so glad you're back!! i was worried when i noticed you'd deleted everything on life plus cindy, and i missed your stream the other day but i'm glad you're doing okay!! btw i call it live mode as in 'alive' because i've always seen it as 3 verbs like in the first sims trailers; to live, to build, to buy :')
@@leahdavis9434 i mean alive as in 'to live' as opposed to live music lol i realise i probably didn't make much sense looking back at the original comment
What you said is true...they did put more thought in sims 2 tutorial mode than sims 4 lore and gameplay overall combined ...it is sad Sims 4 does have intuitive and solid buy/build modes(still waiting for auto-roof ) but the rest just falls....completely flat. On another note, almost all shortcuts on sims 2 are on sims 3 and sims 4, ctrl + right-click to delete , shift + click "," and "." to move the camera around etc it's actually amazing they kept throughout the games.
Yay!!! Happy to see you back out and about, Cindy! I had some bad news that is giving me mega-anxiety, but seeing your video is taking my mind off things so thank you, ma'am!
Love you Cindy. I caught your stream. Let me just say your happiness and mental health are always most important. Im glad you put yourself first. We will always be here to watch and support you! ❤️
What a pleasant surprise! It's great to see you back, I was able to make it to the last stream last week but had to lurk - Just want to say I'm still here and supporting you/your channel! Looking forward to hopefully seeing more of you, but only if you put yourself and your health first :)
I started playing Sims 2 in 2006/2007 and I was taught by one of my mom's work colleagues. Then my parents got me my own game (I still remember it was Sims Deluxe, Pets and Free Time, because I still have them ahah) and that's when I figured out there was a tutorial. I had so much fun learning more things I wasn't taught by the woman! I remember it so well. I miss those times playing Sims 2 after school.
When the world needed her the most, she came.
Thanks Cindy, needed that it seems.l watched it as I did not play Sims 1, but I forgot about the fence!
Pause
Sus
😏
@greenamogus its a woman... dont think you know how to use pause
Cindy just casually coming back in style 😌
i mean she never goes out of style right?
@doll i’m not sure if you mean the original commenter, i was just referencing a taylor swift lyric which goes “we never go out of style”
"I got Sims 4 issues like some people got daddy issues" - Cindy, August 2021
I got called out 😳
Truly iconic. I think we all need t-shirts 👕 with this blazoned across the front! 😂👍🏾
Pleaseeeee Cindy make that into merch and it's in my cart 😭😭😭
I got both
Finally someone else who says live mode the way I do! I thought I was going insane when I heard other people saying it. I always thought of it as "going live" - like live TV.
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌yes🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
SAME
That's how I have been saying it since ever.
I also say "live mode" (the way Cindy/Pleasant Sims says it) idk the way some Sim players say it sounds odd to me
I can see an argument for both but it's definitely live as in 'living' to me, because you are 'living' the sims lives.

also if your family sim is really broke they can have both a want and a fear to have a baby. It happened to my Brandi Broke
@@haiw72jthat’s way too real
It’s pretty sad that 21 years into the franchise and 7 years into Sims 4 EA is asking what we mean by in depth gameplay 🤦🏻♀️
I hope someone told them "go play Sims 2."
Betty’s illegitimate son Joe? I love some lore. Even the tutorial has a story to tell!
The lighting in TS2 is sooooo good, i remember putting like ten windows on a single wall in TS3, and the room still felt too dark
Thanks!
I literally have the salsa songs stuck in my head 24/7 after listening to it for years. I had these tunes engraved in my mind before I knew what salsa was. I forgot I could change the station so to me all sims just enjoy salsa music.
this is so real
LMFAO now that you mention it, I realize that it's THE same for me😂😂💀💀💀
every college dorm my sims have ever lived in has played nothing but that salsa music. Every time i hear salsa IRL, I have flashbacks
Yesss! I was waiting for new videos because yours brighten up my day so much!

New Zealand is back in lockdown and Cindy has returned when I have needed her most. Missed you so much Cindy! Hope you are happy and well 💗💗
My state (Victoria, Australia) just had our lockdown extended not long ago! Hope you're doing OK :)
I always said it as "liv" mode. Since "build" and "buy" are both verbs I always just assumed "live" was a verb too
Yeah that makes sense!
That makes more sense to me as well.
Cindy i'm SO happy that you uploaded, life is harsh these days and you are sunlight

The queen is back!!
When you pause something, then hit play, you go LIIIIIVE! Also, I'm glad to see you back!
Yeaaah Cindy is back! 😍 I hope you’re doing good 😊
I am doing better! Thank you!
@@PleasantSims can’t wait to see you on stream, I liked the last one you did 🙂
It’s so good to hear your voice again, Cindy! ❤️
It made my day to see you upload a video! Wow, I never even noticed there was a tutorial. Also I say "live mode" the same way, as in "this is happening live".
I'm going to honest Cindy you are the most genuine simmer I ever watch
liked the video immediately after you said for your opinion on "live mode". you're 10000% right and i'll die on that hill with you!!!
i’m so happy your back! i’ve been
checking your page everyday! 🎊🎊🎊
I can't wait for Christmas when my mother might got me this

YAY I AM SO EXCITED YOU ARE BACK I MISSED YOU SOO MUCH
Cindy!!!!! my life has truly felt empty without you 😌🧡🧡
It’s 2 am where I live, but I don’t care ! I’m gonna watch Cindy’s video anyway because I miss her videos so much 😭😭 Welcome back Cindy ❤️
I’m glad you’re back! I love your videos!
This tutorial is so fun! Glad to see you back on RUclips and hope you doing great!
I really like Joe and Jane, might add them to my rotation. They deserve more memorys beside getting alive bc of a kiss :D
will definitely watch this later, but for now just wanted to say i missed you so much! so exited!!!
So happy to see you back Cindy 💙💙💙😊
yayyyyy your back!!! watching your videos always brightens up my day.
glad you are back because i saw your real life channel and got 0 videos, i was thinking something happend to you again and here you are....
I missed your videos so much, glad you are back! I just love to listen to your voice in the background and after finishing this video I really want to play Sims 2 again haha
Awww! Seeing this pop back up makes me so happy. I know you’re still taking a hiatus, but this was great to see. 🥰
Normally I must sleep but everytime you make new videos I'm hyped and wake up 😌
Yay!! Your back I missed you so much!!!
This is activating a memory of being 9 and playing the Sims 2 for the first time, being kind of confused because it was so much more complex than the Sims 1, and being SO excited about the potential of this new game.
5:00 yes! In the sims 3 afaik, when you over over for example your sim's job panel, it'll tell you more about their job. I love it haha
OMG! I feel the exact same way about the "live mode" subject. I agree that the way the gurus say is so weird!
I love watching you play sims 2. I've been watching your pleasant view series and stranger town streams.
We all missed you so much! So glad you're back, your videos brighten my day! 💕
I say "LIVE" mode like you say it, too! As in, "Saturday Night LIVE!" etc.
You're back!! You look so great! I hope your path continues on a happy one, and remember to take time for yourself if you're not 100% ready, we will always wait
OMG YOU’RE COMING BACK!!! Idk if you’re really back, but just by having a new video of yours makes me very excited!
I say live mode too and I always will. 😌 Pressing play to me means the game is going live.
I'm almost certain this is the same tutorial, if not very similar, to the one I did a few months back in Sims Pet Stories, but after I re-learned all the controls I stopped paying full attention to the rest of it lol.
I have had just about the worse month of my life. Getting this notification felt so perfect. Thank you Cindy
Wow... I didn't realize I made this comment. Dear past me: it got better!
Welcome back, Cindy!
I always say "live" mode(as in going live) too Cindy!!! And I had no idea you could use the space bar to toggle between sims! So cool! And so happy to see you❤❤❤❤❤❤
Omg I was so happy to see this pop up in my notifications! I missed you so much!

I had never played the tutorial for about a decade. I like the style of the house.
I'm so happy to watch a new video here! It's always so fun to watch you playing and talking about the sims
I love the idea of someone making their sims skip everywhere all the time 🤣
ah i'm so glad you're back!! i was worried when i noticed you'd deleted everything on life plus cindy, and i missed your stream the other day but i'm glad you're doing okay!!
btw i call it live mode as in 'alive' because i've always seen it as 3 verbs like in the first sims trailers; to live, to build, to buy :')
But doesn't that support that it's meant to be "live mode" like "we live here"?
@@leahdavis9434 that's what op said
@@noiz1762 they actually contradicted themselves because alive is pronounced differently from "to live"
@@leahdavis9434 i think they were differentiating between live "alive" or "living" and live as in to broadcast live
@@leahdavis9434 i mean alive as in 'to live' as opposed to live music lol i realise i probably didn't make much sense looking back at the original comment
Yaaaaaaaaay!! I'm so happy you are back! and this was an amazing video!! 😁😁
I really love your content! You inspired me to play the Sims 2 and establish new gameplay rules in the Sims 3 and 4. I hope you’re doing better!
What you said is true...they did put more thought in sims 2 tutorial mode than sims 4 lore and gameplay overall combined ...it is sad

Hey there! How “pleasant” to see you here! ☺️
@@musicalblonde9187 Hey friend! Good to see you here too. ❤️
I have been playing TS2 most of my life, and never used the tutorial. It says a lot how good the gameplay is.
Everything is so intuitive
You can shift click walls too. And control click to delete like with the floors ♥️♥️
i pressed the notification SO FAST. welcome back Cindy!!!
Cindy I'm so glad you are back!! I've missed you queen! 💜
It’s so great to see you again
I love the way Cindy says baby for some reason. It makes me really happy lol

So glad to see you posting videos again! I've missed them! ❤
I’m so extremely happy to see you! Welcome back!
Im soooo happy to see you happy, talking about the sims 2, glad to have you3 back giiirrrl
I’ve always said Live mode the same way! I was taken aback when I heard other people say it the other way
I am so happy to see you back!! Love to see the new video and your smiling face!! ❤️
Yep!! I say “lie-ve” mode too!! It makes sense to me because unpausing the game is like.. going live
Love you Cindy. I caught your stream. Let me just say your happiness and mental health are always most important. Im glad you put yourself first. We will always be here to watch and support you! ❤️
