I love how all the chaos culminated in a slapstick skit with the ghost, vampires, and alien repeatedly slipping in specter goo 🤣Classic Semaj gold star content!
Could we please name this story The Brothers Sim like The Brothers Grimm because a story about three brothers, two vampires, one an alien living on their own with practically nothing facing the paranormal is definitely a brothers Grimm type of story
I know this is an old vid, but im back bingeing James content after a sims break lol, but I saw this and had to comment; this is one of my favorite things about his LP's. I love seeing all of the content a pack (etc.) has to offer, and generally in a pretty realistic way - except I honestly don't have the patience myself to play that way. But it's for sure my favorite way to experience the game. On top of providing a comprehensive look at a pack (etc.), he's charming, funny, intelligent....I'm pretty much only a youtube lurker but just wanted to express some admiration, I've been really struggling with my mental health lately and have so been enjoying having a 'friend' like James to 'hang out with'. Sorry for the novel BTW 😅
Poor Isaiah...in one minute James managed to give Isaiah a bad reputation, uncontrollable hissing, and undead aura. Everyone is going to hate him hahaha
there is nothing more satisfying than having prepared some food that you took to your room and while you open youtube you immediately have something to watch along side and don't have to search for anything. thanks james, impeccable timing!
I love the chaotic energy of this episode & the whole let's play. It's a "Snowy Escape" Let's Play, but also they are vampires, and one loves nature, and therefor is working in the Ecology career, and then their house is a mess, and now additionally it's haunted. And it's all a little much, because it's all the packs, but they don't interact with each other in meaningful way, so James is just managing 10 things at once. XD
You might want to change the furniture of the house a little so you have more surfaces to put things. Like you could one of the big bookcases with a side table, or have a thin bookcase and an end table, and put dressers in the bedrooms. Then you will have places to put the sacred candles. They put the folded laundry on the computer desk because that was the only available surface in the house.
Enter "I Love to Knit"! The skill their parents easily forgot about and thought was boring and dumb, come back to be useful... Man... now they realize they should have learned how to knit as kids. Or make candles like dad.... Even though the pieces of their soul is useful as well... I guess Ambrose and Lilith really did love each other in the end.
As someone who actually has attachment issues with her sims, I think James just doesn't really bother. So far I think it's been two times that he has aged previously played sims on the genealogy so it makes more sense, and has permanently killed some Bigwallets as well.
Love that Isaiah wants to cure his vampirism and has thrown morality out the window to reach his goal. The more he wants to become human, the more inhuman he becomes. :D
@@INeedYouToBreathe Snowy Escape isn't bad but it's not good for lengthy LPs IMHO. Not if you're focusing on it. I think it'd be sweet if they did a little bit of Snowy Escape now and then, like the hiking for example, or even just add a karaoke machine to the lounge that he built since we're using all the packs, but since the vampires are most active at night and that's when the haunting happens, it might be harder to find the time for some of those activities. It might be nice if one of them picks up knitting ahead of time and tries to make a baby outfit for the next heir since we couldn't manage that last time! :)
Cats can't die from hunger though. Cats and dogs can only die from old age, otherwise, they just get taken away. I was thinking it might be a trait? Do the animals have a glutton-like trait?
Yeah. It's very annoying. Try deleting the localthumbcache.package from your Sims 4 folder to see if that helps. (Good idea to just delete it after every game session.) I think it happens after you leave laundry in either machine before updating to a new patch, kind of like how beds would glitch in Sims 3 if you had Sims sleeping in them before updating (well, I think it affected the Sim more than the bed, it's been a while, but in Sims 4 I've also had issues with Sims who were at work before updating. In progress interactions confuses the game sometimes.) :P :)
@@DoveJS Deleting the localthumbcache.package after every session has become routine for me and seems to really help. Sort of general house cleaning for the game. Pyra-that would have driven me nuts, too! Frustrating!!
@@irishduchess7577 Absolutely! I don't know why they didn't code the game to delete the file itself. I had more frequent issues before I found out about that. So grateful to whoever it was that mentioned it on one of JamesTurner's videos! :) Edit: Obviously it doesn't solve every problem but it helps with so many simple issues it's almost ridiculous.
@@DoveJS holy shit I know this was posted like over a year ago but I gotta say thank you because I've been having this glitch since the high school update where one of my sims would just not stay in bed. this is the only thing that fixed it!!
I can just picture Lady and a gaggle of other departed Bigwallets, all haunting the boys by whispering “PICK UP the phone when your mum and dad call! They miss you!”
I gave a vampire the uncontrollable hissing weakness once. He had a couple of kids who both wound up hating him by the time they aged up to children. Never became friends with them again, he wound up enemies with both.
Love how James tries his best to keep the Brothers struggling, only for them to dig up treasures and other expensive items left and right like no biggie
I learned very quickly to NEVER give my vampires the ability to travel as a bat or mist, because they'll stop doing what I tell them to so they can mist/fly in the same spot over and over. Vampire speed has never given me any issues though, so all of my vampires have that as their only "move" power. Works great. I wish they'd fix that, honestly.
PLEASE do updated Prisoner Challenge. I am rewatching your old series and with all of the new expansions and new gameplay, the prisoner challenge would be amazing!!! Please upvote everybody!!!!
I think the paranormal investigator license reward is for people who wanna do the career but don't want to live in a haunted house. Because the ghost gives you the license. Not sure tho cuz no simmers have mentioned this
Guidry has a french name. The first "i" in Guidry is prounced like the one in "grid". I hope this helps. As usual, I loved the video. It's so much fun to watch you play!
You can invite people over to your house to drink from them and then send them home. That way you can get your plasma needs filled in your own home during the daytime.
Speak to Guidry after you sell your soul because he gifts you some of somebody else's soul. Also try and complete the special Guidry interactions because he gifts you things
I could not stop laughing at everyone slipping in the puddle. And because of the house layout they can't avoid it. I seriously haven't laughed that hard in a while.
You can give the specters books that Candle writes or food that you make! Both of those count as handmade objects, it's just anything that you can create and drag into your inventory.
lol I think Isaiah should still do it because he just became the most hated Sim through his flaws and with that bad reputation. Brody hasn't been affected that badly and may consider himself to be better suited as a medium since he's also undead.
So if the animal ghosts are anything like the sims ghosts. I'm assuming Burger the Ghost Cat, might have died from hunger. Could be why he constantly cries for an empty food bowl. Poor Burger. :'(
Oh god, James is experiencing my issue with the laundry. It says used or even filthy in the hamper, you throw it in the wash and it thinks the clothes are pristine. I hate this bug so much.
I love the way the game looks in 1st person mode, so pretty!I play like that often, I just wish that stairs and doors were clickable,like ladders are, the ceilings weren’t white , looks ugly in caves... and maybe wasd to move. You should play it like that, maybe as a challenge.
I’m normally a bit late to your uploads because I’m in Queensland, and it’s midnight when you upload, but because Victoria has daylight savings, for once I’m actually awake when you’ve uploaded!!! So happy! Really enjoying this new let’s play. I struggle with controlling so many characters at once, so I admire your skills.
Someone had the build idea to make a house that is as inconvenient as possible. e.g. the front door leads to a bathroom/you have to go through a bedroom to get to the living room, a ladder goes to a room with a sink, bathroom is a hallway room, you enter the house at the top floor, the office is in a shed at the other side of the lot etc. I know, you could make a super evil house with this!
I was watching ur vid’s on my tv last night and turned it off when I went to bed, turned the tv back on today & the videos never stopped playing so my tv played 13 continuous hours of your content 🤣 least it will boost some viewership x
Really enjoying this lets play so far! Maybe as you make more money for the brothers you could also maybe tidy the house up a little bit, like maybe get rid of the weeds and stuff but keep it looking spooky somehow.
I love how all the chaos culminated in a slapstick skit with the ghost, vampires, and alien repeatedly slipping in specter goo 🤣Classic Semaj gold star content!
It was such pure comedy magic. Made my day!
3:50 You should give Candle a part-time job! If he gets to level 3 of his job, he could get a scholarship for that.
Wow I never knew this. That’s good to know.
Poor kid's still a teen, does a hell of a lot to help out the adults and you want him to work as well!! Poor Candle
Scout can gv you scholarship too. Much easier to handle imo. Working their grade ard tiring them(and me) too much. Lol. Cmiiw
@@eRyL86 plus reaching the top of the scouting career gives you a bonus to all skill gain.

omggg The Brothers Simm you're a GENIUS
Yes! This.... a million times this!
Here’s hoping he sees this one! ❤️
I really admire James' unwavering commitment to always making things just the _most_ difficult and inconvenient for himself
It sure is entertaining to watch, lol, especially as someone who cheats and makes everything as easy as possible for myself in the game

@@miahart1360 no need to apologize! I hope your mental health is on the upswing ASAP!!!
You can make food for the spectres. That counts as handmade
Yes and at the same time it will develop his cooking skill that he already needs :)
Or paint
Poor Isaiah...in one minute James managed to give Isaiah a bad reputation, uncontrollable hissing, and undead aura. Everyone is going to hate him hahaha
And he's still wearing that Hawaiian shirt.
Candle should get the brave trait, seeing that his name is the exact thing that stops sims from feeling scared
there is nothing more satisfying than having prepared some food that you took to your room and while you open youtube you immediately have something to watch along side and don't have to search for anything. thanks james, impeccable timing!
Right! And maybe a cat next to you, and the food is something you really like, maybe a lit candle, and do some cas or building at the same time 👌🏼

"Why is it so hard to have anyone do laundry in this house?" Said every mother ever. 🤣
So true! 😂
I laughed so hard when Guidry was flirty seeing vampires drinking plasma from sims and when every sim kept slipping on that green thingy 😂😂
James: things seem pretty chill here in the house
Specters, 10 seconds later: ALLOW US INTRODUCE OURSELVES
Yea they wanted to surprise him;)
Candle should marry a mermaid and their kid could be the one for the next series
He did a mermaid play through already ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I love this idea.
He should have a baby with Temperance
@@juliabogajo is that even possible?
@@mrsLenusek not sure, you can have babies with ghosts so I assume it's possible
This is my fav lp at the moment, I love how you are exploring loads of different packs so it always feels fresh
You don’t have to get license from the reward store. Guirdy will give it to you at level 5.
You might want to change the furniture of the house a little so you have more surfaces to put things. Like you could one of the big bookcases with a side table, or have a thin bookcase and an end table, and put dressers in the bedrooms. Then you will have places to put the sacred candles.

Even though the pieces of their soul is useful as well... I guess Ambrose and Lilith really did love each other in the end.
You can keep “feeling the love” with ghost cat to earn a lot of reward store points! It’s cute and efficient 😅
Befriend some people and make a club for vampire so you can invite people over and drink from them when you need to.
You can tell James has attachment issues with his sims because he rarely lets them grow to old age and never lets them die and stay dead.
As someone who actually has attachment issues with her sims, I think James just doesn't really bother. So far I think it's been two times that he has aged previously played sims on the genealogy so it makes more sense, and has permanently killed some Bigwallets as well.
I have attachment issues and that’s exactly what I do to my Sims 👁👄👁
It’s not very nice to make such assumptions about a person you don’t know personally.
@@ginaaa2000 sorry, didnt know being attached to your sims was such a sensitive topic
Haha this was hilarious to watch! The green slime lol
I’m pretty sure food counts as a homemade gift for the ghosts. Might be a good way to get rid of leftovers.
And it'll help Brodie gain skills for his career!
Love that Isaiah wants to cure his vampirism and has thrown morality out the window to reach his goal. The more he wants to become human, the more inhuman he becomes. :D
So James really doesn't seam to be at least a little bit interested in snowy escape. 😅😂😂
it was a total waste of a dlc anyway besides the simmers getting to build all the lots
@@frannypie. I think its pretty fun for an ea standard
@@INeedYouToBreathe Snowy Escape isn't bad but it's not good for lengthy LPs IMHO. Not if you're focusing on it.

“Can a ghost cat actually [do a thing it’s doing]?” is the new “is fishing fun?”
Maybe just like sims always have the hot moodlet when they die from heat, maybe the cat died from hunger? I really hope not cause that would be so sad
Cats can't die from hunger though. Cats and dogs can only die from old age, otherwise, they just get taken away. I was thinking it might be a trait? Do the animals have a glutton-like trait?
@@pelahnar4 There is a glutton trait! For cats and dogs. XD
@@pelahnar4 you’re right
The cat’s probably a glutton but for story telling purposes it would make sense.
Or if you drown, you drip water everywhere.
I love this series, so much fun!
The brothers slipping on the slime: hilarious!
I’m liking the way this let’s play is coming together. I like the general structure even though things aren’t as serious as your other rags to riches.
Ambrose: "How's it going looking after your little brother?"
Candle: *gets stranded on an island and has to shower in a waterfall*
Oh, I see the laundry glitch hit you, too. I spent 15 minutes trying to figure that out. No "wash" and no "dry" options. Drove me nuts, nuts, nuts!

she doesn't exist in this save. Back in city living he switched saves so he lost part of the genealogy.
@@musicadictor Yes I know I remember he switch save and also saw his famliy tree. thank you

Just a causal Tuesday... flying around at the beach as a bat 😅😂
Love this series, so chaotic !
the sims slipping on the puddle was honestly the highlight of this episode
God!! Brody and Isaiah keep falling in that puddle is making me laugh more than I should've 😂 and Guidry as well lolol
Same, im 27 and i laughed at that puddle moment out loud it almost make me feel ashamed. 🤣🤣
“Take a panicked poop”
I’M LAUGHING SO HARD 😂
Love how James tries his best to keep the Brothers struggling, only for them to dig up treasures and other expensive items left and right like no biggie
For the record: there IS fishing in that neighborhood. You were just not being patient enough to find it, and the signs blend.
A james signature for videos is zooming in and out really fast while simultaneously spinning the screen in circles.
3 men in the house, no laundry done, what can I say - typicall
I learned very quickly to NEVER give my vampires the ability to travel as a bat or mist, because they'll stop doing what I tell them to so they can mist/fly in the same spot over and over.

"Cool there's a sick cat here again." got me
Ahh deli and James have both uploaded at the same time who should I watch first 🙀😂
That's always the case 😂 which I'm not complaining, 2 gift at the same time 🤣
Guessing you chose James
I lol'd so loud when they kept sliding over that puddle, why was it so funny 🤣🤣🤣👌
I love him just casually talking the Claude as that lass is just passed out at his sims feet 😂
I think the paranormal investigator license reward is for people who wanna do the career but don't want to live in a haunted house. Because the ghost gives you the license. Not sure tho cuz no simmers have mentioned this

This guidry dude: Well have you heard of sAcReD CaNdLeS?
I needed this so much! Thank you for uploading James! Absolute legend 👍
ooh James the Chaos it's just ICONIC 🤣 Love it x
Them all slipping on the goo one after the other, omg 😂😂😂
I love these longer episodes, you can really get into the story
Guidry has a french name. The first "i" in Guidry is prounced like the one in "grid". I hope this helps. As usual, I loved the video. It's so much fun to watch you play!
The pure chaos of this lets play just soothes my soul - I proper cackled when they kept on slipping on that goo. 😂
You can tell Guidry that you sold your soul and he will give a soul scrap to you so you can absorb it. It will make you feel happy, not sad 🙂
You can invite people over to your house to drink from them and then send them home. That way you can get your plasma needs filled in your own home during the daytime.
This is the funniest episode of James let's plays I've seen in a while. Guidry being into the vampire bite🤣🤣🤣
I've been loving these videos for study breaks! Thanks for all the amazing content!
You went to Sulani while they were filming an episode of Naked and Afraid.
This household feels so much harder to manage compared to his previous Let’s Plays 😂 The brothers and their home are so chaotic!
Speak to Guidry after you sell your soul because he gifts you some of somebody else's soul. Also try and complete the special Guidry interactions because he gifts you things
The ghost being into watching that lady get her blood sucked is HILARIOUS
Nothing better then literally waking up to my alarm and a second later getting notified there a new video! 😍
I just woke up and asked myself, 'Is it too early to check to see if anyone has posted new videos?' I look and James did! Yes!
I could not stop laughing at everyone slipping in the puddle. And because of the house layout they can't avoid it. I seriously haven't laughed that hard in a while.
my favorite brothers are back again, love their chaotic lives
You can give the specters books that Candle writes or food that you make! Both of those count as handmade objects, it's just anything that you can create and drag into your inventory.
Wasn't the plan for Isaiah to cure himself from vampirism? Maybe now Brody can do that instead since he's more into paranormal stuff
lol I think Isaiah should still do it because he just became the most hated Sim through his flaws and with that bad reputation. Brody hasn't been affected that badly and may consider himself to be better suited as a medium since he's also undead.
@@DoveJS this also works
Just let one of them do it 😂
I prefer that you mix every character in each episode, instead of focusing on only one.
Brodie should definitely flirt with Guidry or whatever his name is
This is hilarious. I should not be laughing this hard at Sims slipping on green goo 🤣
So if the animal ghosts are anything like the sims ghosts. I'm assuming Burger the Ghost Cat, might have died from hunger. Could be why he constantly cries for an empty food bowl. Poor Burger. :'(
Poor Candle, almost died on that island all alone 😂
That goo made my day 😂
I love this letsplay James!! Im a fan of yours. Very adorable! 💞
Oh god, James is experiencing my issue with the laundry. It says used or even filthy in the hamper, you throw it in the wash and it thinks the clothes are pristine. I hate this bug so much.
Try deleting the LocalThumbCache.package file from your Sims 4 folder. That can sometimes fix bugs like this. :)
I'm so glad someone finally mentioned horcruxes. I said that the first time a simmer sold their soul.
Behind Vlad's mansion you can get plasma fruit.
I love the way the game looks in 1st person mode, so pretty!I play like that often, I just wish that stairs and doors were clickable,like ladders are, the ceilings weren’t white , looks ugly in caves... and maybe wasd to move. You should play it like that, maybe as a challenge.
Just stop your sim halfway through a ceremony and it’ll make things more haunted
So...What you're saying is they get angry if you prank call them? Got it.
I love watching you. You're the only man I follow and it's hilarious every time. Makes me wish I could play with my brother 🤣
What if burger died of starvation and that’s why he’s always hungry 🥺
You should make Candle a candle maker so his brother can gift them to the specters 😂
I've noticed Sims will cook constantly instead of eating leftovers for whatever reason now. It's very infuriating lol
For me it started before the update, i feel like mine have been auto-cooking instead of getting leftovers for months now.
I’m normally a bit late to your uploads because I’m in Queensland, and it’s midnight when you upload, but because Victoria has daylight savings, for once I’m actually awake when you’ve uploaded!!! So happy! Really enjoying this new let’s play. I struggle with controlling so many characters at once, so I admire your skills.
*slips on the goo* Hey watch out that’s really slippery.
Whoa really? *proceeds to walk on the goo and slips* Yeah that’s really slippery 😂😂
I'm kinda glad you started to use this new pack. It's nice to see it in action. Love!!!
Someone had the build idea to make a house that is as inconvenient as possible. e.g. the front door leads to a bathroom/you have to go through a bedroom to get to the living room, a ladder goes to a room with a sink, bathroom is a hallway room, you enter the house at the top floor, the office is in a shed at the other side of the lot etc.

This was a very funny lets play James. You can offer prepared food to appease the specters. I enjoy your series and have an awesome day as well.
The house layout is absolutely killing me 😂😂😂
The cats seem to have a lot of bugs since the update
Brody should get together with Guidry and they can have a kid via wishing well
Brilliant episode
Really enjoying this lets play so far! Maybe as you make more money for the brothers you could also maybe tidy the house up a little bit, like maybe get rid of the weeds and stuff but keep it looking spooky somehow.
Love this LP so much!
