Let's Play The Sims 2 | Downtown S01E09 | The Garth Family

Rebecka, an indescribably lazy slob in heavy debt, and Chase, a music enthusiast trapped in a hopelessly low-paid job, got married out of circumstance. Despite it all, they are one of the most sweet and loving familes in Downtown.

Loved it. They are poor, but they actually care for each other. I also find it funny that Orion and Swan are wealthy but Tiave and Loren are on the poor side. So it is interesting for John Smith meeting all these women from different walks of life. I again can’t wait for their storyline. Also now we just need to see Kestrels and Patrick’s family life.

[@numberjacksoctonauts7138]

Kestrel's stepdad is the other slob, actually. So she would be poor.

I sure would love some sort of UI edit for that jewelry preview lol

[@AniBats]

Haha yeah for sure! The current one is nearly impossible to use 😅

I'm always happy to see a new downtown video here

Just finished watching and love the way their personalities and relationships developed over the course of the episode. Regarding John Smith in your hood, i am starting to think for some of the women, he might be a sperm donor instead of a former love interest. Definitely for this family, he would be a former lover. But someone like...I believe Jessica was her name, an older family sim in the medical career....I just dont see her having accidentally had a baby with John Smith or even being his former lover. It would make more sense if she was getting up in age, hadn't found someone to settle down with and decided to do IVF using the sperm bank because she really wanted to start a family. Would also explain why she helicopters Orion as her one and only child even though she wanted a large family, and maybe the IVF process was a long one for her so she's very invested in her son. Okay on the the next episode! 😁

Such an interesting family! Love how you are able to decorate to tell a story every time😍

[@marijkebotes4999]

Thank you Ani!

[@gabyfraga9294]

That was a very interesting family. I actually loved the "mismatch" in the furniture 'cause it made the house feel so real haha more like houses we see in the real world. I loved it Them having a whoopsie child and then just deciding to get married and turning out to be such a wholesome couple is soooo adorable

[@AniBats]

Thank you so much, Gaby 🥰❤ I'm glad you also ended up finding them sweet, great minds think alike right? 😉 Haha that is a great point, I bet that they will be one of the "decompress"-households - I hope so anyway, those are very nice to have in the mix 🤭

I am really enjoying this series! Just popping in to say maybe not all the adults should have college degrees. Based on the traits and story of the mom in the house (lost traits, young mother, low paying job, etc). I actually think you shouldn't have given her a degree. Of course not every college graduate gets a successful job after uni, but for this specific sim it just would seem to fit if she didn't get to go to college at all. Just a thought! Love your play style and storybuilding approach. 🥰

[@AniBats]

Thank you so much 🥰 I'm so glad you're enjoying the series! Yeah good point! I could definitely see some of these sims not having degrees. Thing is though that the way I'm playing, everybody goes to Uni since I use Squinge's Mega College pack that automatically ages every sim into a YA after being teens, no matter if they are at Uni or in the home world. So that way, it sort of becomes a different life stage, and I think it's a fun way to get to know the sims more as individuals that way. (To be fair, I'm sure everybody would go to Uni in real life too if they were paid for it like the sims are lol😂) But yeah, completely fair that in real life, there's a lot of people who don't get degrees at all

[@NoIdleSims]

@@AniBats ahhh okay! Didn't know about that mod you use! And very good point re how college works in sims vs how it works in real life. 😭😂

[@numberjacksoctonauts7138]

Here's a tip: when you get to the Walton family, Grayson is also a Gas Station Attendant, as he's the other slob. Oh wow. Our first family with a child aged sim. I love watching them play. They're so cute. And poor Hailey! There's 9 families left [aside from the Neegia/Tricou family and the Diva, which are last]. Who knows when the Dalton family will fall into the playthrough.

Hahaha I KNEW you were going to say that 😂

[@janeread3164]

Hello, may I ask what is the name of the mod, which allows you to "work at home" with the help of the computer? Sorry for my English 😅

[@AniBats]

Hi Jane! It's a modded object called "Monique's Hacked Computer". There's a variety of versions you can get, so I recommend checking out this awesome guide Renfree wrote on it: renfree.tumblr.com/post/673836690883952640/moniques-hacked-computer-guide And also her fantastic resource list: renfree.tumblr.com/post/673828717202702336/moniques-hacked-computer-resources

[@janeread3164]

@@AniBats Thank you very much for help! I thought that it might be Monique's Computer, but I didn't install it properly, so couldn't use all the functions 😅😅
