I'd love to see a "Use at least 1 item from every pack" video!!!

[@Biggestgayestbird]

Agreed!

[@linzeyf8270]

Do it!Do it!

[@ziggiplier895]

I legit just commented this too ‼️

[@idkwuzgoinon]

Ooo fun!

[@quinroseman111]

she kinda did on her twitch chat decides my build challenge

[@annettekilian7382]

Idea: this challenge but as a classic lilsimsie blue suburban starter home! Title could even be “can I build a blue suburban WITHOUT the base game?” or something

[@navareeves8976]

YES. this. that would probably be way harder since this was just like an island living build and base game doesnt even really have any relevent items for that style.

[@LuChii13]

This is what I though when I saw the title of the video!!!

[@Beth-sk5cn]

Cats and Dogs’ time to shine

[@paintingdreams290]

yes and she must use every pack

[@oscarkamala]

literally was gonna comment that, twinning

me too

Could be fun to do a blue suburban challenge without basegame, since the vast majority of the blue suburban stuff comes from basegame

[@floofthedoof]

I would love for Kayla to this "challenge" again but in a different style (not beachy/island living concentrated) like a maximalist one or a whimsical one. :>

[@scarletrogerson9007]

I want to see this challenge again too!!!

[@hannahlaubacker7686]

Yes! With the luxury loft and apartment kits with many patterns! Or the knitting one?

[@caitlinanderson2195]

I really thought this would be a walk in the park until she pointed out that the saucer lights are base game 😅

[@ReadObituaries]

Arnt all the walls base game? How do you get walls😭😭 I didn’t get far enough before reading comments lmfao

[@samb3209]

I don’t know what I would do without the saucer lights 😭

[@lifebooksandeverything]

Love Kayla calling us "chat"😂

@@ryeyumi well this reply definitely aged well 😭

[@cnomad237]

honestly loved this! i feel like it pushed you to find new items to use! i'd genuinely be curious to see you build a no basegame house in every non-basegame world.

[@cepheuslu7330]

I adored this video. I'd love to see this concept return for future videos. You can even try to decorate an apartment with no base game so you don't have to worry about landscaping!

[@andreaparham79]

Lilsimsie loves base game in this video but in every other video she complains about base game colors. 🤣

[@naturekinkatartist9292]

Grass is always greener in somebody else’s yard

[@bearpox]

Honestly, I appreciate the builds where you use a lot of packs because then we get to see how they can blend into a single build!

[@Islandboytb]

Another challenge could be a CC only build. Would be fun to see since you don’t normally use CC and will give you a chance to showcase community talent. I’m sure the console players wouldn’t mind one cc build for entertainment purposes.

[@Artnadhd]

I’d love to see this :(

[@giovannadallalba2126]

This would be perfect omg

[@averymembrane9833]

If Kayla ever does a one item per pack build, she should use the mannequins from get to work to involve the cas kits.

[@cringesuperhell]

[refuses to use any of the bright tropical colors in the island living pack] "this is... kind of bland." oh, simsie 😆 never change

[@berylerror]

This is so fun. I love the more restrictive challenges! Could be an idea for the future 4 for rent as well, limiting each apartment section to a single expansion. The vibes for the building would be beautifully chaotic 👀

[@inhaliens]

i really wanted her to go all out with the packs since this is the perfect opportunity and she rarely does but this ended up being mainly an island living-focused house 😢 it still looks good though!

[@davidkonevky7372]

tbf her reasoning for using island living is pretty smart. Island living is one of the few packs that comes with a lot of non-basegame plants since it's such a different climate

[@inhaliens]

@@davidkonevky7372 that is true. but cottage living has a lot of good landscaping especially in debug. as well as cats and dogs and growing together. she did a great job! i’m just saying i’d love for her to do it again and go all out :)

[@madisonemily4083]

i mean she ended up using a lot of packs by the end tbh

[@Whiskin87]

This really came together beautifully! An “item from every single pack” build would be cool. I also like the idea of doing this again with different styles. It’s a really cool way to discover/rediscover items.

[@elliemegel2846]

She had already done this

[@pandalove984]

I love the build challenge videos!

[@morganpaige4935]

Ikr!

[@valeriyariskin4060]

Same!!!!

[@milaynaxlynn96]

I would love to see you do some more builds not using base game! I understand feeling bad not using it since a lot of people don’t have a lot of packs but I feel like you’re a great builder and it limits your creativity!

[@rafaelamartinez1735]

14:41 "oh I cant put the tv here bcs then we wont have a walking space" *proceeds to put 3 huge cabinets*

[@davidkonevky7372]

I honestly found this video so much more entertaining. Although it's technically "a challenge" it seems much more freeing to see you use things in a more creative way instead of going back to old habits (which we all do). It reminds me of when I was a kid and I would AVOID building with anything base game both in the sims 3 and 4 because I wanted to use the packs that I bought to the fullest

[@sophiabock5066]

Are you aware that the subtle saucer light is only brighter because that's the preset level? I'm pretty sure you can set any of the lights to a lot brighter.

[@Artnadhd]

I’d love to see more no budget/lack of base game builds

[@taraem5573]

Please more buildings without basegame!!! 😍

[@andrewmoeller1987]

I fully agree. This video showed that she needs to break away from her usual style. I personally think that not using base game items, coupled with only a few packs, makes for a fun challenge that also causes you to make better use of items that you might not otherwise use.

[@drenter477]

Did she just call us char whilst furnishing the kitchen lmao

[@appolionos]

I think I will start a challenge : "each appartment is a different Sims Year", with Basegame for the exterior and then, each appartment could only use the packs/kits released that year !

[@MinDeRien2658]

Sounds really fun! (Edit: punctuation)

[@blahblahblahEMILY]

i love this build! your non-base game builds are always my favorite

[@EruditeGayming]

honestly shocked how many packs it ended up being, listening to kayla like this was a podcast had me thinking it was almost exclusively island living and jungle adventure

[@ziggiplier895]

You should do a challenge where you have to use at least one item from every pack you have!

[@thatkidopp6394]

Well i have never seen someone do this. Very creative! Love it

[@andrewmoeller1987]

Really? Lots of Simmers do limited packs builds, where you cannot use any base game. Those types of build challenges (no base game plus a limited number of packs) are probably my favorite type of build challenge. It really forces you to utilize items you might not otherwise use. And sometimes you gotta get very creative.

[@pondju]

@@andrewmoeller1987do you have any examples of creators that have done this? that sounds right up my alley haha

[@andrewmoeller1987]

@pondju from time to time (but maybe not recently) James Turner, Sydney Macoretta, Plumbella and Vixella, just to name a few that have made builds using limited packs. Sometimes Sydney will still use very crucial base game items (i.e. toilet), but when Plumbella uses limited packs, she is very strict with herself, and only uses the ones dictated by the challenge.

[@narcisab]

I HATE the fact you feel guilty for using packs that are part of the game you LITERALLY play for a living

[@thornesong_alchemist]

First, you said in the rules that features don't count against this. I'd argue that having working lighting is a base feature and therefore getting in basic lighting to at *least* see while you're building should be allowed. You could always remove them right at the end and switch to other lighting, anyway. Secondly, I want to see the "use something from every pack" video! I also want to see what happens if you then disable every pack and then download this with only base game. What kind of substitutions would it make? I'd love to see what happens if you try to renovate an "every pack" house into a "no pack" house!

[@shaobues]

love seeing her go "omg no thats horrible" after making something better than i ever could

[@geenuhzippers]

the terrain paint was base game....

[@reine_dragon]

I think this is probaly my favrouite simsie build it just looks so cute

[@Totally_Jay]

This was a really cool Idea! I kinda want to try it myself now😅

[@officialbailey6029]

You should definitely do the challenge where you have to use at least one item from every pack! I'd love to see it! Also I saw a comment of someone saying you should do a house where you can't use the same item twice. I think this would be super fun! Can't use the cabinet or chair more than once, can't use the same wallpaper on more than one wall, etc.

[@scorbuddy]

kayla i love this build but i really want you to do the same challenge in a dif style bc this kinda became an island living build, no hate!

[@marieduran6286]

I know what you can put on that space on the roof, a fan from the greenhouse kit, that way it could be an attic fan, which is real useful for cooling the house down. I wish it was useful in-game.

[@Itsrachxo]

this is legit one of my fave builds you’ve made, I just love all the decorating so much especially the back porch area!

[@VoxAsteri]

this ended up being much more island living focused, somehow not the vibe that i expected from the name of this challenge :D i'm surprised how many packs it acutally uses!

[@-evermore.girlie-]

“The thing is chat..” Ma’am this is KZbin not Twitch lol

[@Yumi_Jay]

Similar vibes to "ma'am this is a Wendy's"

[@kds02]

the darker sand for landscaping 😭

[@taylapearce5743]

This isn’t really a “build a house without base game” challenge. It’s more “build an island living only house”. Would of been good to see this be done with a regular type of build house and not based on one pack

[@emmottbot1645]

I think this is one of my favorite furnished houses that you've done recently. Love the vibes and the back patio. Wish it were real so I could live there!!!!

[@Sydthebutton]

Hehehe I love that you called us viewers chat. Adorable lol

[@christianzombievampire]

I love the restrictive challenge vids because that’s essentially how I play anyway - I don’t intend for my builds to be downloaded for others cuz I just do it for fun, but for some reason I always stress so hard about using tons of packs and CC as if anybody but me is gonna play them

[@kikibunni]

challenge idea: every room is a different pack BUT you can only use that pack and not the base game- randomize packs for rooms based on if they have a full set of that furniture. it would take a ton of effort to make the randomizer for it though because you’d have to go through all the packs and categorize lol

[@maddieo333]

I mean- you could prob just reroll whenever you get something without a set Great idea btw!!!

[@Krislovescookies1]

I have an ideaaaaa for a builddd, you might have to wait till the new expansion pack but hear me out: a kind of dorm like built, but then you have a shared really colourful space and the personal rooms are like every colour of the rainbow and then spin a wheel for a gender/sexuality and make them bedrooms, in a coloursceme with only red or only orange etc?

[@djoyvee]

Now we need a Simsie blue suburban in Willow Creek with no base game!

[@Nicole-ow5xu]

hiii you should do a challenge where every room is a different package (and the selection will be at random) where you can't even use the base game (only if you need floor or walls) just that package

[@nattpearl]

have you built a house but you can only use each item once?

[@frenchfry297]

this build is so lively and fun! I love all the colors. You did a great job Kayla!! 🩵

[@inmytiredera]

Can someone tell Kayla that she’s allowed to use non-island living furniture? lol

[@evelynjordan2572]

I've been building recently and I have been terrified of doing so but the new To Let ex pk has inspired me. To Let is what we say in the UK rather than For Rent. To Let sounds better I think.

[@justasmltwngir1732]

“To Let” would be a much worse name imo 😅

[@dyms2034]

Love this! Would def love a “1 from every pack”

[@domy6827]

I think this home decor turned out more true to life than any other build, because it's not realistic for a home to match everything that much

[@MaronMeow]

6:12 I love that she just randomly called us chat, not that she's wrong but it isn't live xDD

[@kura4674]

I wish the curtains were functional for opening/ closing them, would make them so nice if they were.

[@darcygibbs247]

A fun challenge would be you have to use 1 item from every pack no more and no less!

[@folsoms]

petition for simsie to do ONE CUSTOM CONTENT build! (just one)

[@maddieo333]

You’ve heard of using one item from each pack- but what if you had to use ALL the items from ALL the packs without bg? (Or just all from one pack) Idk I’m just thinking out loud here lol

[@WhatEmmaDoingHere]

I think it would be fun to try doing a “base game version“ of different rooms made with a certain pack or kit. Like using base game, try to get as close to the vibes of a room made with the Decor to the Max kit, etc.

[@cassy6275]

Kayla saying she wants this walkway in the living room and then puts three giant bookshelves is just awesome

[@ThisIsBitterSweet]

[@moth_..]

Simsie’s worry with things being “too much” is tooooo mucccchhhh

[@humanperson452]

speaking of every pack it gives me an idea for a Humphry challenge. rags to dopamine riches. as someone with adhd i struggle to stay on a new skill or craft long enough to make any money from it. so have Stanley embody that. he does his usual get rich quick stuff but can only use each technique once. for instance he can have one flowering plant... for one season. collect 3 rocks total. make no more than 2 frog babies before he adopts the frogs out. then it has to die. he can make one piece of furniture on the table before he gets board with woodworking. he can have a career for one week before he has to quit. although any of those popups that say "this will change their life' have to followed. no skill levels above a five (3 for the half skill) and they aren't allowed to like or dislike anything because their mind will constantly change. I am definitely overexaggerating the adhd experience here to make it work in a game but I think it'll be fun to play and to watch you try to deal with his 'mood changes' Oh and try to follow all wants. those are hyper fixations now. I can try to come up with more specific rules if you want but i really like this idea and i think either lil simsie would be fun to watch.

[@its_ialand]
