I really want that sims headband can you give me a link please.

Tucson mentioned!!!

Sims 2 > Sims 3 > Sims 1 And into the garbage goes Sims 4.

she is so cute.

Look at that woman

“The color wheel is too complicated for Me” is wild lmao💀

all the issues with The Sims comes from the developers not caring about the quality of the game or about how the lack of quality affects players. I recommend you play a game where the developers put everything into it and cared (probably) too much: Tunic. It's a great game. Please, give it a try sometime.

People honestly love to hate on the sims 4 and take it way too far. I played the sims 2 growing up and love it. If I want to play sims 2, I play sims 2. I don’t need sims 4 to be an echo of it. I tried sims 3 and really did not like it one bit. I agree about the color wheel. Changing the bed frames and sheets separately like in the sims 2 would be plenty. I honestly think people have forgotten how bad build/buy and CAS were in previous sims games lol! There are so many options in base game and it’s literally free. I own basically every pack through years of steam sales but this game is literally FREE TO PLAY NOW. Obviously the game has issues but the sims team has gotten infinitely better over the years at adding lore, awesome items, diverse CAS, and stunning worlds. Plus SO many free items and updates for the base game. Things that previous sims games did not have. I respect you so much for being honest because reading these comments? Honestly shocking how much people want other people to despise the sims 4 lol!

Watching you slowly become a sims four apologist has honestly been so fun, although I’m 90% sure it has something to do with you playing all the older console games. Like you played so many low graphic, 2 fps console games that your brain started to associate that type of quality with the sims, so when you finally touched the new, shiny sims four for the first time in a minute, you started to actually vibe with it.

I could not play this game without my mods as it cleans up so many shortcomings of the game without them I could not stand the return of world bleed when celebrities show up at the dump and Sulani Tonwnies show up at the club in San Myshuno in full island gear breaking immersion and looking out of place. Was it so hard for EA to ensure Sims stay in their homeworld. When I get a new pack, I don’t want to run into the Goths and Landgrabs everywhere. Thank god someone made a mod to make infant milestones faster as they are badly tuned and nearly impossible to get done before aging up on normal lifespan if your sim has a job and is raising kids. Same thing for kids riding a bike, without a mod to adjust the tuning your sim kid will spend their entire childhood practicing bike riding and never learning. Every new pack is badly tuned and wants to take over your entire game experience and drown out the other packs, only various gameplay mods help balance this out. Half my mods just adjust annoying tuning in the game. Haven’t been able to fish in Sulani nearly ALL YEAR. A modder finally made a fix. Off-Grid lot challenge corrupted with a pack this year, a modder finally fixed it. Owned bussiness wouldn’t open if you were playing a non-owner family, a modder fixed it. And these are the mods I have just to make the game do things its suppose to do anyway. These aren’t even ‘personal gameplay style’ or ‘for fun’ mods. Do I enjoy the 30 rotationally families in my save, yes. But only because of mod fixes. This game would be a literal nightmare without mods as its good points would be drowned out by the mounting list of bad ones. And I can’t wait to sample Paralives and InZoi in 2025 l. Crossing my fingers they both launch because EA needs to know we have options. I nearly never used the color wheel in Sims 3, but when I needed it to tweak a color, it was useful. Also, open worlds are way more common in 2024 then they were when Sims 3 was released. There’s a 90% chance it would work miles better than it did in the Sims 3 days.

I’ve learned to love the sims 4 too. I used to despise it but I’ve been having lots of fun. The mods are also amazing! I also agree with you about the color wheel. I’m a graphic designer who already has to deal with this on a daily basis so I don’t want to deal with it in my free time either.

as a total non sims player these comments are making me feel a little crazy, this game looks very standard for a free to play game

I can"t play sims 4 without mod because it's boring lol. I have all the packs installed (not original ofc) and when I finish 2 generations it just feel samey samey. The CAS and buildbuy is wonderful tho. But currently I'm playing sims 3 again, not gonna build house there tho XD

just started playing fields of mistria thanks to you!! you really deserve some sort affiliate link from them you’re video was amazing

The Sims pets 2 on ps2 was my childhood i loved that shit

Hey, Liss! I don't know if you've talked about this before, but i'd love a video about Fantasy Life, the 3DS game, since there is a sequel coming out for the Switch.

I want a video about the actual base game. not the expansion packs.

Wow I absolutely agree with a LOT you talk about xD the sims 4 lacked so much at first but I agree it’s definitely gotten better over the years. They could still make a lot of improvements but I’m happy overall. :) the only thing I disagree with is that I LOVE infants , they’re just so cute and it’s very realistic that they’re difficult! But I get why it can be too much for some people lol

I remember Cassandra Goth being left at the altar like as soon as you loaded into the household in sims 2! That’s the kinda lore I was looking forward to seeing in the sims 4

Honestly agree about the color wheel not having it saves me so much time

Well, guess it’s time to petition a sims free play series, hey, liss?

I remember buying Sims 4 when it launched on Xbox. I played a lot and then stopped. Then a few expansions came out that sounded cool and went back in. Now I play in bursts here and there.

i had no idea you were a theatre kid. love that

all of your opinions are incredibly correct. never met anyone who felt the same about the color wheel. i get decision paralysis, i don’t need infinite color options. also emptied my mods folder a while back, and my game runs so well now it’s crazy

You create a sim, build a house, congratulations, the fun is over. That's general experience with Sims 4. Matching wood samples is a nightmare, 70% of the world is unplayable shell. At this point I'm not even interested in pirating this game. Whole idea of emotions is broken, you can get a sudden fear, that just overrides your sim's whole mood. Relationships between sims look like a joke, towns have no amenities for toddlers, animals are split up into 3(!) packs, loading screens, loading screens, loading screens. And it still runs like shit on weaker systems, even though the whole point of abandoning open-world concept was to improve the gaming experience for folks with laptops and older PCs. If you compare Sims 4 and Sims 3 basegame (which is 15 years old at this point), it feels like a huge step back on EA's part. As I said, CAS and Build/Buy were the only improvements that game had been given.

Great job EA! It only took 10 years to make a decently playable game to be able to compare it to its predecessors... Sims 2 will always reign supreme to me, and I say that with hundreds of hours into Sims 4 at this point. Sims 3 color wheel was another notable mention. I play mainly as a builder and the detail they put into the prior games is unmatched.

“It’s not a totally broken abandoned game” yet it’s openly acknowledged that the game the engine is built on was never meant to run what it has become and it’s 1500$ to get the same things you got for 500$ in previous games 😂 and there are well known bugs from years ago that they don’t even try to fix and I’m saying this as someone who tried running it on a brand new top notch computer and has never used a mod or cc it lags crashes and bugs all the time it’s objectively worse then it predecessor if you look at the gameplay etc not saying ppl can’t play it or like playing it but the trying to pretend it’s something it’s not is what I never understand.

I would kill for more rugs 😢

ahhh this island is so cuteee. very inspiring as i’ve been burnt out for months and have been aiming for a normcore island 🙏

I always forget newcrest exists except on the rare occasion i mix up willow creek and newcrests tags and load in the wrong neighborhood lol Also i didnt know they updated it so we can paste makeup 😭 ive been wasting so much time doing that 😂😂😂

Liss the Lass - Infant hater. :P

I think the Sims 2 was my favorite but Sims 3 was the most played. I could never get into Sims 4; sure it looks great but the gameplay was a turnoff for me.

I didn't expect to hear you worked at Texas Roadhouse but it fits haha. I hope it wasn't too stressful 😅

People will nitpick what you say, but I appreciate your honesty! Mods really are a pain too, I feel that. Often not worth the headaches.

Over 10 years later and I still LOATHE this game... sims 3 forever !!!! You're insane for not liking the color/texture picker in sims 3

I have the same thoughts about the neighborhoods. I get that the open world got too sparse at times but there should be a sweet spot between that and needing a full on loading screen to go next door. (and preferably a quicker way to travel between neighborhoods in the same world)

i only had my sims proposal rejected once and it was a long time ago on my very first save. It was J huntington proposing to my sim, but she rejected him and he died from embarrassment seconds later :/

I cannot wait to see you go over the packs! I loooved this video ! 🎉

liss' voice is so so nice

I've been running into the Pancakes in town a lot lately and they're always chill, definitely haven't realized they aren't happy

New Lissy!!

Have a great holiday Liss! Hope u had the best time!

I have my complaints with this game, but I could never call it flat out broken, just that I have a complicated relationship with it. I play both vanilla and with a ton of mods, and either way you slice it, I often have to deal with glitches and bugs that make certain gameplay features unusable: laundry is always broken, gardening has been broken since Cottage Living was released and is still not fixed, there are a ton of bugs with stuff like knitting and other skills or activities. Often I download mods to get certain features to work because EA hasn't fixed it yet. It's a one step forward, two steps back relationship with the devs: tons of new color swatches for BG, great!; why is Seasons still an EP? Boo. Just a mixed bag overall... And yet I keep coming back 🙄

I can only play sims 4 with mods. 😅 thats the only way it can be fun for me lol

Nailed it before years end. Well done. Well done.

11 year old sims loving me hated this when it came out and nothing changed since. I will never liked this game, why did they ruin this franchise

video starts at 5:40 also the Sims 4 is a plague on the franchise and now we’ll never see the Sims 5 because of it. i hate EA.

The fact this game is 10 years old and is still a dumpster fire is a travesty. Being a lover of the franchise for over 20 years, it hurts my soul. The only positive I have is the building is easier.

i moved out of AZ in March, but i totally agree that Oasis Springs is super Arizona coded.

liss your shirt is so cute
