As a person from Colorado, the thing that makes me sad about outdoor retreat is that it is a vacation only world. This world looks most like where I live and I wish I could have my sims live in this world!
imagine being a hermit who intentionally built a house as far from society as possible and the first person you let into your space immediately renovates your whole house
I desperately wish every world had a hidden area like the tree or other interactive ways to get to some hidden area! It makes it so much more fun for storytelling purposes!
yes, seeing a sixam planet build would be delightful. Also I'd forgotten about this lot when I saw the icon and tried to figure out how you got normal daylight images of either of the base game hidden lots
You can even be a hardcore simmer and not know about this. I went to sixam and to the Willow Creek one but never cared about Granite Falls enough to know about that one lol Trust me I've been simming for almost 12 years (I mean ts4 specifically is only 9 years old but you got my drift)
I don't have Outdoor Retreat. But I watch enough Simmers on youtube to know about a lot stuff from packs I don't have. But nobody had ever mentioned this one before.@@sproutstuff
i really appreciate the way you don’t make people feel stupid for not knowing these things. i know a lot about the sims but my gf does not so it’s nice showing her ur videos :)
I like her videos, but i feel the opposite. I feel like she thinks no one knows anything but her about the sims. Maybe toning down the part, oh most of you don't know about it, etc would be nice. The info can stay useful without this part. ( And i feel bad for criticizing her, but this was a long feeling of mine already).
So I think its really cool, that you restrict what packs you're using! But maybe it could be an idea to use the statistics James got from his survey, about how many people own certain packs, to sometimes say that you use three or four packs but specifically choose ones that many people own? Just as an idea to be able to use some more different objects :)
Every time you called the back the "front" I was giggling. "The front just has no dimension" "that's because it's the back kayla... though tbf the actual front is not giving much dimension either". Cackled when the gallery showed you the real "front" and cackled even harder when you zoomed out and revealed there's an actual path out the real front
Kayla: "I'm gonna put a telescope here cause we didn't have them when the game came out and it would be perfect here in the wild" Also Kayla: proceeds to point the telescope to a tree
honestly love this idea! I might have to give renovating this lot a go as well! In my current play through my sim is a bookworm--she meets and falls in love with a vampire and wants to find a way for him to come out in the sun with her. So she is exploring spells, herbalism, etc to find a cure. And for part of the story she is going into the deep woods to see if the hermit has any special herbs that can help. so having a cool renovated build out there would be nice!
I recently had my sims get married in Sylvan Glade! Granted, you can't host an actual wedding, but I built a cute venue and sort of dragged some random sims along as "guests." The photos turned out so pretty too ♡
I was *wondering* where those planters came from! Outdoor retreat is one of my first packs and I love it. I am going to have to craft more of those. I just think they're neat.
Yes, do the secret world from Get to Work!!! Make it like it was from Lunar Lakes or something mid-century modern, or make it look like it came from the Jetson's cartoon--boy, I am really dating myself on that one. What about the cave in the Dessert Bloom Park? is there a lot there? That would really be a challenge to build there.
That isn’t a basket with storage for cutlery, it’s a real deal picnic basket. You take it with you when you go on a picnic, it has all the dishes and cutlery and cups you need, and the larger basket is for the food you’re eating! Nicer ones can have a small cooler in them to keep food and wine cold!
I never really use that lot or ever go there, I kinda easily forget about it.. but I will download the house for another lot and use, cause its really pretty
Console player, here! I love that you build in all of these lots. I can replace the icky builds with your gorgeous renos. Building on console is really tedious, so this make my life so much easier and my game way prettier! ❤
Super cute cabin! And I'd love to see you build something in Sixam 😁 perhaps you could use the sleep pods from get famous & the decontamination shower from get to work?
I'm going through A LOT rn with the one I love.. ur videos are so uplifting and happy and they make me feel good! I'm so thankful for ur videos helping me get through this tough time
This build is crazy good. Simsie's build evolution is>>> not to say she was a bad builder before but her recent builds feel like 20 times better than ever before!
Did you guys ever notice how she always put the gardening box in the same way in every building ? its always 2 box with half tile off from each, always LOL
Not gonna lie when you posted one of your Sims 3 videos and the aliens arrived. I had to think if the alien world I knew was from 3 or 4 because they blended in my brain so honestly I think you should do both Sims four secret, alien world and sims 3
I think it would be a great idea to renovate the house in Mt. Komorebi, since you are saying all the time that if you made it now you would've changed some stuff!
I think Outdoor Retreat, Horseranch and Cottage Living, Build/Buy-wise all play well together (and Werewolves, too). As you were talking about the tub that’s crafted…honestly, Eco Lifestyle blends with those too!
I like it. Looks much better. However I think a useful change would be to put the planters under cower since the outdoor retreat aspirations did not account for weather so it takes ages to complete since some of the plants will be out of season whenever you take your sim on vacation.
What about the secret lot on Moonwood Mill? The one on top of the big hill where they get the flower to cure them of being a werewolf? And do you remember building on the lot in Sylvan Glade? Maybe you can build another one? I just thought of something, if they gave us log cabin in the woods wallpaper, why didn't they give us log cabin in the woods roof pattern? That would be so cool, with making roofs, outhouses, fireplaces, and sheds--or even a horse paddock. I know corrugated metal roofs would work, but people didn't use to have it. Would it be so hard to make a few items so that we can make old houses? This is giving me inspiration!! Thank you, Lilsimsie.
I mean, you used a giant bush on the front, this time you can't blame EA Kayla, it's all on you lol. Also yes to building in the Alien world. You already say you struggle with modern builds (you still do great) so I can't imagine you building an alien house. Maybe it could have The Jetsons' vibes.
I really wish I could access your builds on Xbox. I’m so jealous of all the computer simmers right now lol. I just want to thank you for all your tips and tricks. It really helps me when I build my houses and lots on the Sims. I’m not that creative when it comes to builds so it definitely helps so much. Your videos to give me inspiration and ideas I just wish I could access your builds on Xbox!
Yes I'd love to see more secret world builds. I've honestly never been to any of the secret worlds lol I only went to the magical realm because the stories gave me a spellcaster
13:02 You had debug, you could've just looked for the things you wanna plant and place them down 😆 No need for packets that randomise plants from every pack, which you didn't want
I never thought to try and modify that secret lot. I’ve visited it a bunch of times looking for specific items, but literally didn’t think it was possible to mod it with the cheats. I may just have to give it a go now, because I’m always looking for fun new places to build.
add six dogs and some chickens and subtract the fish and this is pretty much my grandma’s house. this is a good thing, I love my grandma and her woodworking. she makes wooden spoons and sells them at farmer/artisan’s markets :D
Kayla, firstly i love your builds, thank you for these 🥺 but also you havent used blue in so long, like in so many things so you keep saying that its because you make everything blue but you havent made much blue in a while - so how about an all blue house cause genuienly blue is such a pretty colour for the sims
it would be cool if u made it be a wizard's hut. i dont think u can cheat the hermit to be a magic person, but i still think it'd be cool to have another hidden wizard location for lore purposes :) OR if the hermit was a murderer and u put evidence of it there with a bunch of gravestones
Imagine being an hermit and go live in the woods so no one could ever bother you, and then a random person comes to your house and start refurnishing everything, get rid of your plants and family photos and give you a dining table for a lot of people when all you want is privacy lmao
you could build a house in the oasis spring cave, the one where you need handiness lv10 to access. I know there is no default house but it might be a fun challenge to build a cave hideaway
wdym there's a secret lot in the basegame with that tree??? My sims lived next to that tree for 4 generations (I prolongened their lives multiple times on long lifespan, so it feels like I played there for forever) and I thought it looked so cool and different and even had my sim paint it a couple of times but he only viewed it once or twice because I thought what's the point ..?? asdfghjk
I love that Mollie just posted an Outdoor Retreat gameplay video today. (She’s doing the globetrotter challenge). Is there something in the air or did you two plan this synergy (SIMergy?)?
I feel like this lot would benefit from a reno that was Cottage Living heavy. I wish we could live here as a residential lot with the Cottage Living animals and do some serious self-sufficiency gameplay.
That's a cute cabin. I need to explore that world. I will put that on that lot. I think they should have made it so you could live there with Sims or at least be able to rent it.
As a person from Colorado, the thing that makes me sad about outdoor retreat is that it is a vacation only world. This world looks most like where I live and I wish I could have my sims live in this world!
If you’re on PC Zerbu has a mod that lets you do that!
I mean glimmerbrook looks incredibly similar, copperdale is also intentionally colorado inspired... We've got lots of forest worlds
At least you have Glimmerbrook and Copperdale, there's nothing like Selvadorada
@@luciacastille gotta love the american company making all american worlds and entirely ignoring the rest of the world 😭
@@endersquid1132 literally, as someone from eastern europe the layout of the lots makes me sad
I think the Werewolves pack could have really benefitted from a secret lot accessible from the underground tunnels.
Absolutely
Yess! I was really disappointed that it doesn't lead anywhere :(
Yes a thousand times yesss! Moonwood is one of my favorite worlds and that would have made it even better!
100%.
Such a missed opportunity
Imagine going on a walk in the woods only to come back and someone renovated your whole house
I'd be more concerned that they had access to my bank account to make such changes.
imagine being a hermit who intentionally built a house as far from society as possible and the first person you let into your space immediately renovates your whole house
Pretty sure there won't be a second time lol@@smellslikelayne
I desperately wish every world had a hidden area like the tree or other interactive ways to get to some hidden area! It makes it so much more fun for storytelling purposes!
Yes! How cool would it be if the Island Living or Horse Ranch caves led to a viewable hidden area?
yeah but most sims players are not smart enough for this
@@sebastiankrolik3927I think they are, the secret lots are just boring because EA built them so nobody bothers with them
yeah the older worlds are so much more interactable, with secret lots and collectables. i cant play in newer worlds theres nothing for my sims to do
That weird cave in horse ranch was such a missed opportunity for a hidden lot, I have no idea why they didn't go for it
yes, seeing a sixam planet build would be delightful. Also I'd forgotten about this lot when I saw the icon and tried to figure out how you got normal daylight images of either of the base game hidden lots
I think Sydney Macoretta did a Sixam build a while back! I'd love to see Kayla do one too!
This is actually the first time I've seen someone show the Outdoor Retreat secret lot. Didn't know there was one!
You can even be a hardcore simmer and not know about this. I went to sixam and to the Willow Creek one but never cared about Granite Falls enough to know about that one lol Trust me I've been simming for almost 12 years (I mean ts4 specifically is only 9 years old but you got my drift)
It blows my mind that people don't know about this one. You have to go there to complete the aspiration from outdoor retreat
I don't have Outdoor Retreat. But I watch enough Simmers on youtube to know about a lot stuff from packs I don't have. But nobody had ever mentioned this one before.@@sproutstuff
@@helenalena6193What about the one in the oasis springs park... you been there?
Why is the best landscaping the sims team has ever done on a hidden lot?? 😂
i really appreciate the way you don’t make people feel stupid for not knowing these things. i know a lot about the sims but my gf does not so it’s nice showing her ur videos :)
I like her videos, but i feel the opposite. I feel like she thinks no one knows anything but her about the sims. Maybe toning down the part, oh most of you don't know about it, etc would be nice.

"This is like a basket with storage of cutlery." That's a picnic basket

Every time, man!! 😅 But whatever it will still work
@@brightsalot yup! the fact that sims don't care to stare at a super-zoomed in tree is pretty hilarious tho

I’d love to see a similar renovation of the secret lot from the Get to Work pack!
... theres a secret lot in get to work?
@nofunmercury7611 the space one I think? It's like a planet that you can go to when you are a scientist
@@EmeraldEdits213 ohhh of course! i dont know why i didnt make that connection in my head ive had loads of scientists who've been to sixam lmao

The Jetsons was awesome!!! Meet George Jetson... His boy Elroy... 🎶 We're not dated, we're timeless!
As a beginning sims player, Lilsimsie's vids are so educational and helpful. Love it!

I love when I sit down to watch RUclips and one of my usual RUclipsrs I watch posted a video
she posts everyday so every time you u sit down there should be a video from her lol at least if it’s after 3
I actually love the secret worlds. It feels like a reward for gameplay and exploration. If anything, I'd like more of them.
I like how you said you weren't going to delete things then you completely changed the kitchen haha. Love the look though
How did I not know the outdoor retreat lot, I played that pack so much when it came out😂
I never really use that lot or ever go there, I kinda easily forget about it.. but I will download the house for another lot and use, cause its really pretty

Yayyyy I’ve been considering doing this for my save file and now that you’re doing it Im gonna take it as my sign to do it too:)
I would LOVE if you rebuild the working lots of get to work, like the lab, the police station or the hospital.
I like this build, Kayla. It's much better than the original. I hope you build something on Sixam next.

that was an amazing build!! Also kayla, you looked so pretty today
She always looks great, but I think today is due to especially good lighting. That nice lavender glow in the back, etc.
Yes, finally! 🎉🎉 I love these builds in the secret worlds. I cannot wait for the alien one.. 😊
yay I was waiting for another hidden secret lot bult
I’d love to see all the other worlds with a build in each one like this ❤
I didn't know this,as a starter Sims gamer,thank you!!!!
Would love to see you build in the get to work secret lot!
I've literally had this pack since the day it released and didn't know about the secret world.....
kaylas commentary is always so entertaining omg might go on a lilsimsie binge today
You’re my comfort RUclipsr fr I love your content it makes me so happyyyy
this is my dream home and dream location. I'd love to live here!
I really like the new dirts we got from the horse ranch pack
This cabin, darkness included, is 100% the vibes of the cabin I used to go to as a kid! This is awesome!
