[@alexaherrmann7683]

Ea with their damn builds, they really should update all worlds and also the npc households. It's so stupid that our base game npc's still don't have optional cold and warm weather clothes

[@MsMiniGiraffes]

Right? I just want my new saves to have townies with hot and cold weather clothes and likes and dislikes that make sense. That shouldn't be so hard!

[@anniexx6645]

I think it would be great that warm and cold temperatures do exist in the base game. I own seasons by myself and love it but I think only the temperatures would be a great update for new simmers!

[@soimsha.]

I thought they were doing that? Atleast with the “famous” townies. They did the goth family and just did the calientes.

[@lemonZzzzs]

Personally, I wish they'd focus on fixing the bugs instead, and maybe improve the UI here and there. Leave the decoration to the *much* larger and more competent user base through the gallery, as intended. That does, however, leave lots like this one, which require cheats. I do wish they'd make ALL lots editable by default, so that we could utilize the crowdsourced efforts to redecorate them as we see fit.

[@sabby_wren]

I really want townies to have storylines and for them to get promoted and have lives and not just sit around. Whenever I don’t play with a household I’ll go back in and they’ll be late for school and work, it would be nice if they could do these things by themselves when you’re not physically controlling them.

if you ask simsie what's the worst building by EA in sims she has like 263 answers

[@kiyasthriftycrafts]

To be fair, a lot of EA lots are pretty awful bahahaha

Harry Potter may be the most famous, but at the end of the day, it's not the only 'magic school' story to exist. Saying all magic schools are Harry Potter references is like saying all vampire stories are Twilight references. Make the magic school, Kayla, it's fine.

[@robertgronewold3326]

Yeah, even though I'm a huge HP fan, to say that all magic schools are Hogwarts is just a little narrow minded. It's just the most famous one, and not even the first. Heck, I've even written my own story of a young wizard being educated. Kayla can rock her magic school here.

[@aldii8614]

Yeah, I think she just gets a little bit triggered. I love Kayla's videos but sometimes she gets too extreme with the cancellation ideology 😂

[@Biggestgayestbird]

Kayla works hard to center and support trans people in the spaces she creates. It’s actually extremely appreciated in a political era trying to harm our community at ever turn, especially in her state Florida. It’s not necessary for her to say something, it’s true. She did so with intention and choice. She established a boundary. If you need a “safe space” that doesn’t include people stating they stand against transphobia and a woman who has blood on her hands, you can leave. This space is Kayla’s and she has stated it’s not for transphobes.

[@justanotherstaykid]

@@aldii8614 It’s almost like we SHOULD be “cancelling” transphobic, xenophobic, ableist, racist, and downright disrespectful people, hm?

[@aldii8614]

@@Biggestgayestbird but liking harry potter doesn't mean you are transphobe, I watched this stream and she overreacted a lot for it with the poor chat that wasn't saying anything rude, not aggressive with them but close. That way you end up isolating the trans community, when we're trying to show the world trans are just normal people. Again, we're transiting a cancelling era where everybody gets tense and reacts aggressively at any opinion that doesn't fit theirs. But it is part of a well needed change so it'll get better over time. Also, not agreeing with only one thing Kayla says means you have to leave? That's what I mean with cancelling ideology (or however it is called in English, sorry if I don't express myself good enough 🤣)

[@HeavenlyLovers]

I personally LOVE realm of magic, it doesn't even feel like the Sims. ALTHOUGH the magic school is HORRIFYING, and we can't even rebuild it without a cheat!!

[@YouKnowImOnMyPeriodYah]

It’s also one of the few packs I enjoy collecting in. I love collecting all the familiars

[@EllieBenson17]

Ngl that’s not that bad of a thing. The Star Wars pack doesn’t even have official lots you can only use the cheats to enter build mode at all in Batuu. Get to Work you have to use the same cheat while your sim is at work to edit the career lots. The gameplay more than makes up for the builds imo because a maxed out spell caster never needs to worry about needs or mundane tasks ever again. Repairo, Duplicato, and scrubaroo are life savers and the potion of plentiful needs is also great to have when you’re trying to do stuff and don’t have time to worry about needs

[@julius_pepperwood]

I love the world and the spellcaster stuff I just hate the EA builds lol

[@aldii8614]

I never find the builds particularly horrifying, but then she rebuilds them and I'm like: "yeah the original doesn't even compare to this masterpiece"

[@robertgronewold3326]

When it comes to limiting packs, I think it's always pretty safe to assume that if you have Realm of Magic, you'll also have Vampires, Werewolves and Paranormal Stuff, so mixing those is usually no issue for most people. Supernatural gameplay is so much fun.

Lilsimsie: "... because do any of us wanna watch me furnish like 3 hallways" Yes. Yes, i do.

[@katbairwell]

I know it isn't directly related, but I would love to see the Sims Team make even more use of community experts. I know they are hiring builders to do most new lots in packs now - and the difference between the pre-Snowy Escapes lots and the new packs is marked. What I think they need to do now is hire in a small panel of experts to "sanity check" build mode items, things like one item in an obvious set is missing swatches, sometimes there are a couple of swatches that are near identical, whilst another colour isn't included, if some items in a set have "distressed" and "pristine" variants, make sure all items in that set, and all colours have both variants!! It is disheartening to have to add recolour mods to get what should be a "complete" build set. Even worse for those who don't have access to mods. It'd just be nice if we only had the gameplay bugs to annoy us after release, without build/buy being incomplete also!!

[@simsspeler1757]

The sages are programmed to show up at specific places on the lot. It is some sort of invisible marker. Bulldozing the lot deletes the marker. That's why for this particular lot I prefer a renovation. Changing the build with deleting it makes the sages prefer the same spot as in the original build. But bulldozing the lot obviously gives more freedom to build. This magical school looks amazing.

They could simply not download the build, replace missing things from the build with other stuff, or download the build and wait to install it until they have the needed resources. This is my own approach to building. I'm not going to turn down my creativity to suit other people. I build for myself, and upload what I like best for those who might also like it. I mostly play and upload on PS4 and have every pack and kit on that console.

I love this build, sadly I don't have alot of the packs you used in it. You should build a school museum with a huge library using the realm of magic, werewolves, and vampires packs. : )

I still absolutely love Harry Potter and I always will, but I don't love or respect J.K. Rowling AT. ALL.

[@courtneyford97]

Love this!! So creative 😂 sometimes it still amazes me that you can do these. I always bulldoze the whole thing too and start over 😂

[@laurakarr29]

Man, best lot tour ever. All the new packs add so much to the vibe.

[@EllieBenson17]

Builds can be replaced very easily, spellcaster sims are the most OP sims in the game with spells and potions to solve literally every problem you have! Travel, duplication, repairs, cleaning, potions to fill needs and cheat Death and revive sims, they’re phenomenal 😊

As a long time trans viewer, 8:59 meant a lot 🥹 thanks Kayla for always having our back and support!

[@lf5670]

your version is simply game changing !!!! Love this so much I put in every save

[@walkingexistentialcrisis1697]

Stuff from the werewolves pack fitting with the magic pack actually makes a ton of sense when you get into all the werewolf lore since (SPOILER) werewolves are supposed to be descendants of early spellcasters that went into hiding while being hunted by vampires for their tasty blood

[@Dean_W1nchester.]

How many times has she used that title

[@samuelakosma8981]

This is so wow😮❤ I just want to download it. I love your builds. You truly did a fantastic job here. Greetings from Germany🤗

The only things missing are headquarters room for proffesors + fourth classroom thats fully destroyed inside and with a locker on the outside come on you cant have magic castle and not have someone's abbandoned misterious room

[@buttrioska8737]

i think her anguish about using more packs is justified, she explained it very well but also i want to say: relax, have fun and believe me, no one's missing out on anything, i've played all the sims games and ive never paid a single cent for them

[@agme8045]

Lmao same. I actually bought the base game the year it came out, and I paid over 40 bucks for it cause I’m stupid and bought the deluxe edition without realizing it, till this day I’ve no idea what the difference is lol. But (while I play the sims hardly ever now) I just pirated the whole thing with the zillion expansions it has. I won’t be making the same mistake once the sims 5 come out lol

[@jorjaruth6712]

ive been waiting for her to renovate this build for a WHILE!!!
