building in the sims using *only* packs from 2024

[@Krista_Bombista]

Ok, so I have an idea for a rags to riches. What if you host different parties and try to get gold and sell the rewards for money? As you get more money you can host more expensive parties with better prizes.

[@WrenTaylorsVersion]

That’s a really good idea. Kayla, please do this!

[@TsarNick1995]

I want her to do a rags to riches where the goal is to build a house worth 100k! So basically, it goes from rags to riches video to a build video!🎉

[@kitty79er]

absolutely amazing

[@lemongoddes]

Love this idea. Hope she does it

[@ahter6790]

And actually you can make pretty good money by throwing parties. When you get gold on an incognito party, you get a 12000 simoleons jungle gym. It is kind of crazy!

[@savvyisburning]

yess please do other packs from different years!! that would be awesome

[@mothhann]

i was just about to comment this! maybe bring in the wheel for extra chaos and have packs from when the game first dropped to now!

[@gabriellamtts]

YESSSSS

[@pnutqpublic]

yes yes yes yes please please PLEASE

[@JHG.JUSTHUNGRY]

tbh, I think this is one of Lilsimsie's most realistic houses so far. With the unmatched furniture and style, it seems like a house that got passed down, so the style added up through the generations. Or even if this is a one-generation household, it still makes sense. You don't buy all the furniture at once, plus, in-trend furniture changes every single year, month even.

[@Nightfire613]

The fact that Crystal Creations came out THIS year is wild to me. I use it so much, it feels like it's been out forever

[@scrollquill]

ikr? I thought CC came out last year. Feels so long ago

[@arrow_awsome]

2024 has had SUCH good packs; crystal creations is my number one staple for fancy builds; every single infant uses the story book nursury crib; and most recently life and death has had so many swatches in my faviorate color! (emerald green)

[@UnassumingLlama]

I didn’t care for cozy kitsch as much as I thought I would, but you made it look so good here. Please do this again for different years, this was very fun!

[@notWerewolf]

simsie, you should do a total "self indulgent" build for the new year!! don't care about the gallery, the number of packs, the costs, just build whatever's most fun for yourself! you've had a long year, you shouldn't have to worry about everyone else at the very end of it

[@ΙάσοναςΑλιφέρης-χ7ξ]

Id love to see this turn into a series! That way we can compare how good build mode was from each year

[@unknowable4147]

11:58 its FUNCTIONAL too! Your sims can store their crafted jewelry in this and the other crystal creation jewellery box!

[@lilaott6495]

i only recently found that out because i accidentally clicked on it after months of playing with the pack

[@joesims2940]

It’s been an interesting year for build mode 😅

[@gryphonite]

I absolutely adore this build!! It is so different from what you'd normally make and I love all the colors and tiles going together!! I always love to see you build a little out of your comfort zone and this just looks so cute!!!!!

[@mon_plays6186]

I've been painting my new room all day and I still got a huge way to go so this is really making my day by letting me relax and watch my favorite youtuber for a few minutes:)

[@TheKelliestKelly]

I'd love it if you repeated this idea with other years. I don't think I'd get bored of it if you decided to do one from every single year the Sims 4 has been off. If you wanted a challenge you could cap off the series by building something using every single pack with build or buy ever released

[@JournalNthoughts]

I wish the Sims had consistent colour swatches. A true black a true white and then update those swatches across every the entire game. Almost all the different packs/kits have black, grey and white swatches but not all of them match each other is wild

[@iambadatnamingthings3547]

16:59 yes please

[@maja-kehn9130]

I would love a build from packs for every year. I think it would be fun to see the differences in packs.

[@sarahwalsh3341]

I think Crystal Creations was my favorite pack this year. I love the aesthetic and plumbite is just too good to resist.

[@Namaikhan]

You should totally do a series of year pack builds leading up to the anniversary!

[@Stayville_Clown]

Crystal Creations is one of my favorite packs ever!!

[@msv_1999]

(Around 03:00-05:00-ish) So far this house reminds me soooo much of the sims 2 in terms of ascetic and lay out etc. It is very reminiscent of the 2000’s sims 2 houses you could find like around Don Latario’s house back in the day. Especially with that terracotta tile and carpet in the bedroom

[@Tentacleparadise]

it'd be so cool and useful if the sims had a dropper you could use to color match anything

[@harrypotter20083]

13 is wild, so many kits tho

[@via._.punkie]

Woah 13 is wild

[@e_m_m_a_0122]

Castle nursery theme with castle estate custom canopy the red+gold nursery kit furniture would have gone so hard 😭 but this build is still fire!

[@resolute_visit]

12:29 toddlers can indeed use the changing table but only some of them, some are infant only I believe

[@taykoutmccleod]

the primary bedroom is giving "what if the golden girls were witches" and I wouldn't have put those things together myself but I'm glad someone else did because it's a fantastic vibe

[@smallbee7]

Yesss i needed a new simsie build!!! Sick from my bed 😢🎉

[@DancingInDreamWorld]

Hope you feel better soon 💜

[@JessCatlessi]

16:42 Anyone else noticed the shared date at 16:42 says Kayla uploaded this either 25 years in the future or almost 75 years ago? 😂 WTG Sims4.

[@imnotnnp.s]

Yes! Please go back and do every year!

[@luciemorris3177]

Yesss please do this for other years!!!

[@AvaMiller-o1x]

Honestly, you’re super talented. Keep sharing more!

[@Dksimmer]

YES!!! do for every year the sims 4 has been!!

[@lindseylocker]

Not only would using packs from different years be a fun challenge, but it would also be a good exploration of how design styles have changed over the years as trends come and go!

[@leoniemvrie]

your videos make my day!! love you simsie

[@ahter6790]

11:57 I just learned the other day that the jewellery box from crystal creations actually has an inventory where you can put your jewellery!

[@YoungBuck4146]

This house reminds me of ‘80-‘90s southern california suburban

[@behemoth1164]

yeah, each year each packs build, cant wait bruh

[@Sammy-tk5os]

I would LOVE to see the diferentes years

[@temptationspiper]

As Sims players, we have the most random favourite things. A favourite low lying plant, a favourite circular rug-specifically circular!- maybe our favourite gravestone....

[@nwolfe22]

Honestly a really nice build considering all the restrictions you had. I would totally use it in my world

[@helenachwierut7349]

This is a lovely build!

[@ashleybollino4552]

You should do a vid using only your favorites; favorite pack, favorite kit etc., !!

[@kendallmcmahon5529]

YES i would love to see the comparison of packs along the years !!!! this build was so cute

[@angelof_music95]

love your builds Kayla! I just got Life and Death for Xmas/my birthday and I lovvvvveee it! all time fave, tho Werewolves is riiight up there because James did a beautiful job on the builds there. I just love the creativity and dedication u have and that's why I have learned from you and became jus as obsessed with The Sims 4. Keep it cool Simsie!

[@Karatechick135]

I honestly love this one so much

[@maggie4028]

Love this build! It’s fun seeing how the packs work together!

[@Confused_Fear]

I absolutely love the color scheme of the house! It is super fun and works well within the world, and I think everything came together quite nicely.

[@IdrisAfonina-u7w]

Wow, honestly this made my day. Thank you!

[@notyournormalg1]

Make a whole neighborhood with one house per year! Thst would be fun to see the different years right next to each other. Or even a house, but each room uses a different year’s sims packs.

[@stacie1595]

This made me realize how much I use Cozy Bistro and Riviera Retreat. The tiles, wallpaper, and lights from both of those packs are staples in my build style.

[@LilaBeck-u6f]

I honestly think that EA ran out of ideas for packs because of the Life and Death Pack. It comes with fun furniture and clothing, but honestly $40.00 to collect souls in a game is not worth it. Yes, the world is cool, the build items are cool, but honestly can there be a bit more? I think EA should make a hotel pack. Personally, that would be fun for me. Anyways, I loved the build, great as always!

[@pokerusfreak8194]

Collecting souls is like the least interesting thing the pack gives tbh. the tarot deck collection, the souls journey and life goals, reincarnation, wills and heirlooms, funerals, the list of cool stuff the pack adds is quite long as far as useful gameplay goes. The career part of it is cute, but by far the least useful gameplay wise as far as mechanics it adds, and collecting the little soul essence is in the same boat. The pack is well worth the price though for the amount of actually useful gameplay features it adds. its by far the most dense pack we've seen from them in quite a while, so its a bit strange to say it "is just cool, but needs more".

[@lawreb91]

I feel like I've seen someone do this like per room or per tiny house??? A year in the Sims per room or something? It'd be fun to see your take!

[@rose_9813]

12:11 I love when you yap simsie

[@GabbyDurp-q5k]

This Year Was Crazy!!

[@JuzJaded]

With the 2 new worlds this year alone, I wish lilsimsie does a tier/rank list of all the worlds. Personally, worlds have become my biggest consideration when figuring out which pack to buy next, so it'd be really useful to see the opinion of someone who has all the worlds already.

[@lmaoemilia]

could you do a build where you only use stuff you dont like? LOVE YOUU❤

[@julis.6667]

Aww it's for a succesful artist and their little family

[@teresahofmann6354]

I love the idea of "year builds". I would also love to know whether you can do a whole house using only kits

[@inthetrashlol]

also for a small house challenge you could do a using ONLY one item from each pack. like if you choose the artist easel from the new pack, you can ONLY use that, and nothing else from the pack (but you can place the item as much as you need!)

[@inerciasart]

would love to see this as a series of houses for each year!!

[@jordynmadeline]

yes please do a whole series with every year of the sims 4!!!

[@marieduran6286]

I also watched Devon Bumpkin and I saw him use the Castle Estate flooring for ceiling tiles. And some of the walls in CE can be used for the pool.

[@caitlinblackburn9837]

simsie this is the best build you’ve ever done !!!

[@lillyelmore1914]

i think your video is going to make me get out of my sims slump 😭

[@Tnuag0.1]

I love every build that isn't a speedbuild because I can't watch speedbuilds and every time I see a good build and I start watching it, just to find out I can't because it's a speedbuild, I am devastated. So I am very happy that this one isn't

[@arau92988]

Yes! Please do builds by year I love that idea!!

[@isabela9005]

soooooo excited for the possibility of you doing this type of video for past years!!!!!

[@skytho42]

I'd love to see builds from other years' packs!! 🥰

[@lotte5697]

I would love to see houses from each year 2015-2023 packs😍😍😍

[@willowtabby4926]

Yesss, more "[X Year] Pack Only" builds 🤩

[@pamelameadows6556]

This is one of my favorite builds from you!!!

[@alah6058]

Honestly I haven’t been able to play the sims 4 in like 2 years because of my old broken laptop but this is making me feel fine about missing out because of how much stuff there is for me to save money on lol The off the grid series is giving me MAD FOMO though 😢

[@inthetrashlol]

it would be cool if you picked a group of packs like this and did the challenge of “one thing from every pack” BUT from separately on build and buy. like you have to use one thing in build mode (wallpaper, fences, doors etc) AND THEN you have to pick one more thing from buy mode!

[@kanix01]

honestly this might've been one of the best years in terms of dlcs

[@LilPanda404]

It felt weird hearing how many packs we got this year...

[@allie2891]

I love the idea of going back and doing the packs by the years they were released. Maybe use base game if you have to. That would be cool.

[@bayyleaf]

I go into work in 18 min and this is a great way to pregame

[@raediance5523]

Id love to see other years! Thats a great little series!

[@egentsmith719]

I always forget that most of those packs weren't just a fever dream.

[@youdunnitagain]

LOVING ❤this build

[@GwyneddJ]

Idea for these types of challenges: incorporate CAS items using the mannequins from Get to Work.

[@mandamfpanda3583]

Omg yes pack builds for different release years! 🎉

[@Cryselia]

i would love to see every year pack videos actually, please do it

[@alices4323]

Omg this turned out so good!!!

[@gretaerdody8761]

Hey, I've got a new challenge in mind, where every item you place, has to be from a different pack. As far as I remember, you haven't done this kind of challenge yet, and I believe there's enough packs out there now to be able to do it. Also would love to see previous year's pack build challenge!

[@Bumblebeerocks23]

Hope you're doing well!!! Happy holidays and happy New Year Simsie!!

[@a_useless_brick]

This build is amazing I love it

[@rebeccahartopp5122]

I'd like to see a build where simsie using at least one item from every pack (kits included) but no base game (except for walls and roof pieces)

[@Elawssw]

the video just started but i already like it

[@eli6969]

definetly do it for every year it'l be so so fun

[@kaiacheyenne6391]

everytime i watch your videos im always so amazed at out fast you do these builds. It takes me FOREVER to build watching your videos gives me motivation lol 🤣💛

[@lexiestevenson9667]

idea: what if you use one of the largest lots and see how many micro/tiny homes you could fit on that one lot while making it look like a neighborhood!

[@timpancakes2011]

Yessssss please do previous years!

[@s-upper]

releas year builds should be fun especially with the way how much diverse in style they were in some years

[@byllii]

lilsimsie is apart of my morning routine

[@zerozeroren]

Big Mediterranean vibes, love that

[@meredithwemhoff9270]

Yes! Please build a house for each year. 🙏🏼

[@astarrcolmon]

i love the idea to do builds for the other years

[@aislingm8036]

This was an absolute banger of a house!

[@AutisticKittyStar]

I wish you did more closed off floor plans
