Im hoping for a realm of magic refresh

[@indecisive.dice.roll.325]

Me too 😅

[@moodyboobsjanna]

That would be nice!

[@haileybalmer9722]

It's not the best pack. Is it their worst pack? Maybe. Probably not. It's just a little bit... airy? It's a lot of fluff and not a lot of content. I'd love to see a refresh. I played with Spa Day so much when they refreshed it.

[@uglymelon6721]

Me too

[@ravennevermore423]

​@haileybalmer9722 the star wars one and the other ones you can only access on vacation are a little annoying.

[@handel2502]

The landscaping says remote, the housing somehow screams gated communinity. This in spite of the bar that instead says, roadside attraction. Very conflicting vibes.

[@stellalecarde4657]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who didn’t get the ‘style’ for this pack. Then you have some punkish looking outfits as well.

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

I am living for this commentary. I think you nailed it.

[@barbiquearea]

The only times I've ever visited Glimmerbrook is when I want my sims to head to the Magic Realm or sometimes to visit the pub. In my opinion they should have made this world somewhat similar to Moonwood Mill. That is make it a mystical forest like place where your spellcaster sims can find ingredients for their potions. It seems like the only point of this world is to find the portal.

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

I totally agree with that barbiquearea! Fingers crossed that one day it gets a bit of a refresh or update to make the main world a bit more magical! That would be really cool.

[@Kindr3dVillain]

Love the magic shop area. I always immediately buy a death flower there. I then plant and create a garden full of them for easy money. 😂

[@haileybalmer9722]

Glimmerbrook is great if you rip everything out of it and build a quirky little town on the five available lots.

[@caseyzimba9935]

That beautiful glass greenhouse was the hardest letdown for me 🥺 I still delude myself that there are ways to get in it 😭

[@aceofspades5109]

There’s probably a mod

[@erichoople]

One of the most underrated sims KZbinr… Hell even KZbinr in general. No click bait. No constant bitching. Just good, entertaining, and a variety of content. Keep it up!

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Awe shucks thank you so much for the super kind comment Eric! :)

[@thisisfineeverythingisfine3051]

The flying broom shop sign spells out HP 😁

[@andrewmoeller1987]

I wish that greenhouse was a real building that your Sims could go into and explore

[@barbiquearea]

I added a few seance tables in the main building of Magic Realm. They go pretty nicely with the spellcaster theme.

[@sabrinaloizides-merideth9874]

One of the funniest things about the bar in Glimmerbrook is that they forgot to change the roof texture on one piece of roofing. It always sticks out to me when I load into the lot and I immediately have to go into build mode and fix it.

[@elsie8757]

And one of the houses has either a door or a staircase on the outside that leads to nowhere!

[@melanie_luv2_sew]

sometimes they even sell the $1200 Death flower. valuable in so many ways. great video. I didn't know the garden and greenhouse were there!

[@BigFanOfManyThings]

‘Don’t get too excited coz it’s not interactable’ is the tagline for sims 4 expansion packs. The magic world isn’t that great, could’ve been better, but the whole spell caster thing is really fun and the world should have accommodated more for it..

[@MetalHanyou1]

I feel like there was a missed opportunity in Realm of Magic to make it so that the Magic Realm was the new neighborehood. I mean, how cool would it be to build your sim's home (without cheats) on a fragmented island hovering above the magical vortex?

[@vingedheart]

Thank you! I appreciate these guides - there's always something I didn't know. ❤

[@SamJones-qx9hz]

Thank you!.. you reminded me I really want to build a boarding house for teen sims being inducted into witch/wizardry. I love this world, wish it was a bit bigger, but I've decided it is quite close to Windenburg so a lot of my witchy sims live there. Have a great weekend 💕

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Ooh I love this so much Sam! Thank you for the fun comment! And I hope everything is going well on your end :D

[@LionmaneElsie08]

I wish Glimmerbrook was bigger, 3 lots is nothing. I also find the magic world through the portal remarkably underwhelming too. I was excited to go to the shopping area and was disappointed how little there was to do there. It’s just a bit pointless, could of been way more if EA gave a crap (even the townies there look ugly 🙈)

[@Kyle-cj5fj]

Hi Petey! if you’re looking for one, I have a video idea for ways to improve worlds using the TOOL mod. I’ve added swing sets and those big movie hangout projectors and they really help with the Sims 4’s big worlds with nothing to do. I’m pretty sure you can think of some better ideas. Thank you for your consideration!

[@sabrinaloizides-merideth9874]

Can you do a video on the Messages in a Bottle collection from My Wedding Stories sometime? I think you'd enjoy the lore there.

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Ooh yes I defs want to do this video, might be a little while away but for sure I want to, thank you Sabrina! I loved the little details you were telling me about them!

[@joaniekeyser4036]

Funny you should mention Harry Potter, bruh. I made a Sim and named him after my fave character in the series, Severus Snape. I gave him a wife named Diana, and they couldn't be happier.

[@Charlee1776]

I don't think I've ever had a sim live there. Now I want to!

[@Austinniya.]

omg, the first time I edited the building, I made an abomination - the 2nd attempt was even worse - now I don't bother and just play in the default master-crap-piece. LOL

[@fotoreportaze5797]

It´s a shame that the most beautiful building in the entire pack (giant glass greenhouse) is non-interactable. I like the overal color atmosphere of the world (purple and pink hues), but some of the houses could have been more interesting. They don´t scream "magic" as much as they could.

[@IndiaDouroux]

Do you have a video on creating a grocery store?

[@benmartin4671]

How do you make the sky so clear? When I zoom out, everything is foggy. Even before I added seasons lol

[@indecisive.dice.roll.325]

No idea there was a fishing spot

[@Cheesecake_666]

I feel like Glimmerbrook as a world is just missing something, its just kind of meh

[@WorldWeave]

I feel like that for the magic realm

[@CaraBolsaSTUDIOS]

Lore?

[@Cheesecake_666]

​@@CaraBolsaSTUDIOS really could use a bit of that, Forgotten Hollow had Vlad and his statue, Glimmerbrook could've used something similar. Either that or just some witchy set dressing even, even the magic realm just needed just more... substance I think is the right word.

[@stephanieshorty7320]

Is there a secret lot in the growing together pack

[@uglymelon6721]

No

[@Austinniya.]

1st :P
