Ranking Every Sims 4 Pack For Careers Gameplay

[@bookcat123]

I think there’s a big difference between careers that are ONLY rabbit hole and careers with a work from home option. Because you can choose to “work from home” every day and that makes it into an active career - I build public lots to be the work lot. So for example an engineer would choose work from home, then travel to the computer repair shop I built on a generic public lot to do the work from home tasks…

[@abi7497]

You’re a genius

[@AaronRulz]

There's a theme here. "It just wasn't implemented that well" - I think you said this for almost every career. lol

[@tatianazimina7266]

"It's a career, but you are earning money to spend on a career itself, that defeats the whole point" - I knew that the Star Wars expansion was a pyramid scheme all along 😂

[@ampersan3]

The salaryperson career has you start at 9am-7pm, but you actually have the option to work overtime in the work interaction menu and my sim worked till 12:48am hahaha it will probably give a random end time each overtime

[@ajayredonkulus6628]

It could be worse, I learned through another KZbinr that people in Northern Ireland say 'Crane' like 'Koreans'. People really think we talk about Korea a lot in the UK haha.

[@pathogenofdecay]

Style Influencer is also an amazing career because it gives you the ability to give any sim a makeover in CAS as well as starting your own fashion trends _that never end_ until you reset them. lol I've had guys dress in sasquatch costumes randomly since I only owned the basegame. lol

[@itsamonsterr]

take a shot every time satch says the word 'implemented' *dies* 😂

[@shisan4251]

I wish we could have bands and more musicians careers in sims 4, for example, playing gigs, doing concerts, going on a tour. That if they added more instruments like drums and bass guitar for the band to be more realistic and fun.

[@Spikey100000]

Well holy sh** there is too much DLC in this game. Probs over 50% of which should’ve been in base game

[@Simfyre]

This review is very useful and even though I already own ALL the packs, I was inspired to try some new gameplay with careers I haven't played through before. Thanks!

[@JanJan4Infinity]

My hope for Sims 5 (I know it’s early) is to have self employed jobs be customizable so that you can run your own spa business, your family run restaurants and such.

[@joWorld664]

I wish veterinarian was an official career. It's treated more like a retail store, so it says that your sim is unemployed even if you’re a vet. You also can't go to university for it.

[@fleetwoodmak777]

I wish we had the option to make sims self-employed like we could in the sims 3 (if I’m remembering correctly)

[@felciebiased]

Thanks for the this tier list! I love playing through careers too but I never know which one to pick whenever I want to try a new one (for me).

[@pdhobbies966]

I've never heared him say "Korea" until now that he mentioned it, now I can't hear the word carrer anymore 😭

[@why_melli]

i’m still sad about how terrible the dream home decorator career is 😭

[@joWorld664]

Definitely the pack I regret buying the most

[@why_melli]

@@joWorld664 unfortunately! the lighting issue with the furniture is really bad too, the whites often look blue-ish. i don’t even play without gshade anymore these days

[@silvervixen007]

Just when you said "it's the motion of the ocean" my battery fell to 69%😂😂

i love how you just hold up your vapes during videos LMAO (ex: 13:28)

[@judialbert1349]

The difference between jam and jelly in American terms is jam has pulp and pieces of fruit in it while jelly if basically clear with out pieces of fruit and pulp - made from the juice, I guess.

[@Vierzehnheiligen.666]

I was at my peak with creativity when I made my sim a dj playing almost everyday in his local club and going on ‚tour’ around other towns (it was before we could rent vacay house anywhere so I had to build in bedrooms in the clubs haha). Combined with basemental ducks, but not necessarily, it was one of the funniest way to play in a while 🤪🤙

[@kucerka888]

Ok...now I can't unhear the Korea thing 😂

[@teresa6387]

Had no idea, but it’s funny to see “justice warrior” and “president” as opposite like you’re either one or the other😂

[@TylerWilson-r3j]

thanks for posting satch have a good day!

[@pathogenofdecay]

Werewolves does have one way of earning money, and that's by making everyone hate you because you scared them so badly that they dropped their wallets. lol I suppose it's a bit like the Criminal Career in that way. lol Speaking of the basegame Criminal Career, it's a surprisingly interesting one in that it encourages you to do Programming and Mischief daily tasks, and level those skills up of course. Mischief and Programming are also both moneymaking skills on their own between Programming's hacking, plugins, apps, games, etc. and Mischief's pickpocketing, which iirc might be another Criminal Career daily task. The Charisma skill also lets you ask for loans from other sims and I don't know that you ever have to pay them back? lol Oh, and don't forget the Kleptomaniac Trait, which allows you to steal bigger and bigger objects from different lots the higher your Mischief skill is, so if your sim is a pathological thief like this, Mischief has a second way to make money.

[@graciechoate2684]

Thank you for this! This convinced me to get the paranormal and get to work packs. I bought some occult packs which have been fun, but I love the live careers. Gonna switch one of my characters to detective for sure.

[@simsspeler1757]

There should be a bit more attention for the difference between the pure rabbit hole careers and careers with a work from home option. In basegame only style influencer and freelance jobs can work from home. In DLC, the salary person from snowy escape is the only one without a work from home option. All other careers in DLC allow you to stay with your sim during work hours. Careers with a work from home option are far better than the pure rabbit hole careers because you can combine them with raising a family or studying at university. I think discover univesity should be top rank because these 3 careers do have a work from home option. They can be combined with studying if you work from home which helps paying for university. The engineer career also allows to create computer classes or an exo suit which is unique as far as I know.

[@jilliebee3229]

Me not realizing how the pronounciation of 'career' sounds like it until you put them side by side and then I'm like Ohh. LOL 🤣 Thanks for the video, always love hearing your opinions and there are SO many careers I just forget to actually play with

[@Simulant655]

The island conservation never worked for me, the daily tasks are buggy and it never marks it as completed no mater how many times I do it, specifically with surveying the ocean

[@xmolly-bearx]

Woohoo new Satch video!🎉

[@StoryGirl83]

23:29 I don’t know about in the UK, but in the USA Jam and Jelly are two distinct, but similar things. There is also Preserves, which is a related thing. If I recall correctly, Jelly is smooth and has no fruit chunks, Jam is thicker and may have some small fruit chunks, and Preserves is the thickest of them all and has large fruit chunks. There is more to it, but at a glance, that’s the differences. Growing up we did not have jelly in our house. I’m not saying it is bad or anything, we just didn’t have it, so the idea of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, for example is weird to me, because I want peanut butter and honey (which was the most frequent peanut butter type sandwich in our house), but as far as fruit based products go, jam or preserves was what we normally used. I personally find jelly slimy, but I have on occasion had it in a sandwich or on bread with butter and the taste isn’t bad, it’s just not my preference. I do find some people use “jelly” for all three, but they definitely are different products.

[@treefrog1018]

Well, now, my American ears only hear you say Korea! 😆 I never noticed until it was pointed out to me.

[@LuxSerafina]

I’d love to see shanice shanice as a chef with the dine out mod!

[@abbym4682]

I wish the sims team could just pay mod creators who fix their packs like dine out then implement the mod into the game. It would be lazy and easy for them but still they don’t refresh the packs at all.

[@simsyard]

with snowy escape you can also make snowboarding videos and get 40-150 simoleons everyday (it basically works like book royalties)

[@jenschoice_]

The subtitles have you saying Korea for both 😂❤

[@tillyleaf3546]

Correct me if I’m wrong but I thought jungle adventure had an archaeologist career

[@Aurora-lj4gu]

No but actually I think the paranormal investigator can be pretty hard on the hard quests. And can absolutely not let my sim go by themself because they’ll fail.

[@mooonsi323]

Paranormal stuff career is glitchy for me. I tried few times and each time my sim is sent to a flat I can’t finish all tasks. Only when they are sent to houses. So irritating.

[@BunE22]

In the US jam has chunks of fruit in it, jelly is made from fruit but strained so there's no chunks of fruit.

[@ellaamariee]

love that you put my wedding horror stories in dick cheese even though you said you could sell everything with the retail stores like outdoor retreat

[@TheJackedOLantern]

Hey, Satch, noticed you're using Tiermaker, wanted to try making tier lists as well but their site basically requires almost a lot of access to my twitter account- why don't they just ask for my password while they're at it. (At least when trying to create a template) Is it safe? I found the list of their demands annoying but I wanted to make tier list for a vid and most of the other sites that does the same are a bit... lacking.

[@Riley_HawkinsOSRS]

honestly "I'd Rather Have Dick Cheese" should be a Jepordy category

[@ScaerieTale]

Poor Mollie (TheEnglishSimmer) can't say fairies without people asking her if she's talking about furries lol. I guess I never notice it because I listen to a lot of UK and European YT channels

[@treefrog1018]

So, if you have Battu, you can pretend to exchange the credit you get for simoleons. 😆

[@SimsyHazel]

Can you sell paintings through plopsy? I've had this question forever 😭

[@kat_kitty_kat]

Yes you can, I believe Deligracy is doing that in her current Growing Together let's play

[@SimsyHazel]

@@kat_kitty_kat Oh thank you! I was planning to get the pack and was wondering if it would work on other creative items.

[@nedrane297]

yes

[@simsyard]

yes and i really recommend doing it because my sim makes waaay more money this way. i had multiple situations like this: selling through inventory - 400 simoleons, but with plopsy it jumped to 1600! one time someone even bought it for over 3000

[@avsambart]

I teach English in Japan and Japanese people pronounce Career and Carrier (kya-ri-ah) the same way so it can be a daily struggle 🤣

[@Kaydog14]

U ate that hot Cheetos stain shirt

[@Mars-yx7lc]

satch holding the hyde lol

[@aileenc363]

My bf has a berry farm and his favorite joke is " What's the difference between jam and jelly? I can't jelly my d!ck down your throat". Anyway in the US jelly is made with the juice and jam is made using the actual berry. Your videos are the best!!

[@marikroyals7111]

I didn't hear the Career Korea thing until you pointed it out now I can't un-hear it. In my case you did it to yourself.

[@nedrane297]

Ok, I have a few things with different takes. First, I have to say some of these its not careers its skills that you use to make money. I suggest another video "Profitable Skills". Second, "because going to a restaurant and just eating there isn't very fun"... well, it COULD be. It was in Sims 1 and Sims 2. Sims 3 not so much but not badly like Sims 4. Now, in Sims 1 and 2 they combined it with dating and you literally went to a restaurant and sat down and ate... with your date. There were activities to do when you weren't eating and you could do other things besides just eat but the whole point was things to do with your date. And it was fun! Sims 4 took the fun out and made it LITERALLY sitting down to eat. I guess we the players were responsible to add fun to the lots to make it be more what we were used to in other games, but yeah. Next, Archeology, skill. But I agree on the gameplay, but it seems to be a very much slimmed down version of World Adventures. But then Sims 4 expansions and gamepacks can't hold a candle to Sims 3. I guess if they had done multiple game packs like this to have a true WORLD it would have been cool, but... yeah. Next, Strangerville. I like the military career but they messed up part of it and didn't fix it. It's not really a bug but a mistake. They have requirements to use an object that would require to be purchased but then on the next promotion they receive the object as a career reward. I actually like Strangerville both gameplay and the world. Next, Batuu! I actually enjoy Journey to Batuu. You can totally make money, you just buy the object with credits and when you go back to your home lot sell them for simoleons. All the things that can be found in the world on the home lot translate to simoleons. Yes, I have had sims get rich from it. Also part of the gameplay under Galactic Pirate you get the ability to pickpocket. I have all my evil sims go through that just to have that ability in their evil repertoire as there is no cool down. Next, Realm of Magic. I have to disagree in that you can use that same table from Jungle Adventure (or other packs that have one) and sell the potions or ingredient, open a potion shop. Just based on your previous logic for Jungle Adventure, Realm of Magic has plenty of career gameplay. Next, Moschino, I really got nothing for that one. I bought it for the build/buy. Next, Plopsy, totally agree. Next, Paranormal! I loved this pack so much... until they broke it. I still have problems playing it. And it hurt so much. Their fix didn't truly fix it for me. I think this is what truly led to me going back to Sims 3. Next, Get to Work, lol, there ya go. You just said it later. I do have to say that I was really into the "Detective" career, but it glitched several times and I had problems with it. But, yes, I loved the scientist career. I set up shops, but never really played them much. And I don't think I ever did the doctor career much at all. I was too into the scientist. Next, City Living, I'll be honest I never played those careers at all. They held no interest for me. Probably because I'm not a very social person so having a career where you are required to go out and make friends and "influence" people is just not my thing. Next, Get Together. I'm sorry I totally disagree in that it is not a career or a skill and I don't think it should get that high a rating. That is just a way to exploit the game, as you did say yourself. Next, Cats and Dogs. I did enjoy the vet career. I have to disagree in that I think it was as well done as the doctor career, which tells you something there. In some ways better because if your pet is sick you can take them to the vet but with the doctor if your sim gets sick you cannot go to the hospital. It's not on some lot that you can only get to if you are playing the career, so I did like that better than the doctor career. Next, Seasons. I'll agree with this one because its an overhaul really. I will say that I do like that in sims 4 you can grow flowers which you cannot in Sims 3. Next, Get Famous. I enjoyed this one. I think it was best really for sims that already had some skills because with other skills you got a better variety of gigs. I liked that writers could get famous and stuff like that. So I do feel that this one had more to offer than the obvious having cross pack compatibility that way. Next, Island Living. I agree about the given career. However, the odd jobs, if you have skills can be lucrative. The problem is that everyone tries to do oddjobs as a new sim that has no skills and then are disappointed in it. Next, University. Well, it is cross compatible with packs that came before University, not so much after. When I played Eco Living, I had my sim go to University first and it was a problem because there was not an update which said which classes the sim needed to take for that career. There was an answer on the forum but it was not ingame like the others. Next, Eco Living. I did truly enjoy this career. I enjoyed the pack. I just felt that they whole pollution thing was not implemented well. And I totally turn off those stupid neighborhood action plans. I absolutely LOVE dumpster diving and you can totally make that your career with imagination and the handiness skill. Or with Realm of Magic. Next, High School Years. I don't own it. my niece wants it, I personally don't see a point to it except having a new world. Next, Snowy Escape. Honestly, I think this should have been a vacation game pack rather than a full on expansion. And I'll leave it at that. Last, Cottage Living. I loved this pack so very much. I think this is the reason I stayed with Sims 4 as long as I did. I had so very much fun with this one and loved loved loved it. With Seasons it was hard to get the new plants but that was my only issue with it. Sidenote, jam and jelly are two different things. Basically jelly is smooth with jam having more actual fruit pieces.

[@GK-ob1ni]

I have to disagree with the vet career being as good as the doctor career and here's why - If your sim wants to be a doctor, they can just go ahead and get a job as a doctor. If your sim wants to be a vet, they have to first earn enough money to buy a vet clinic before they can work there, which means they have to get another job (or some type of income from somewhere) in order to do this job. I don't like the idea of having to get a job in order to get a job. A doctor doesn't need to buy the hospital to be a doctor, so why should a vet have to buy a vet clinic?

[@THEPURRINGMACHINE]

Cottage living is an amazing pack i love it. I am just lacking ideas as of now. Which packs implement it well ? I wish i could sell my canning items and fruits like in a morr realistic way

I really wish you took time to make new face thumbnails, I know you’re busy and all but when I see the same face thumbnails over and over again it just flat. I completely understand that it takes more time and effort to continuously make new face thumbnails so I understand why you would much rather choose to pick the same ones over and over again, but from a viewer’s perspective who really enjoys your videos it would be nice to see something different for the thumbnails, maybe even just a new Bach of photos to use for the cover. But either way I’ll enjoy your content ❤

[@Natasjaisawesome]

So your only criteria for if a pack is good or not, is if there’s a career? That seems limited… Sims is SO much more than careers ☝️
