Sims 4 mermaids have been completely changed! (Island Living Mermaids Expanded Mod)

[@kolanutbae]

This mod feels like a whole expansion pack

[@vomm]

Yeah but without bugs

[@missbeehavingsim]

If this was released by EA, it would be 1 EP, 2 GP, a SP and 3 kits

A kelpie is from Scottish mythology It's a water horse with a seaweed mane and normally lures children to ride on them when they are out of the water than go and drown the kids

[@AndriaTheKobold]

And eat them up with the exception of the entrails!! They let those float to the surface/to shore. According to legend one could theoretically 'tame' a kelpie with a cold iron bridle with a cross on it

[@saltycat662]

That's so wholesome :)

[@dankofanz]

I was a Kelpie in Brownies. Eek!

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

Reminds me of the water horse spirit that drowns pregnant women and children, this must be another form of it :o

[@SpleenMuncher71]

Just like me fr

[@Vendettis]

Sims Team needs to hire these modders, because wow I am impressed 👏🏼

[@dd692]

This was all actually done by one guy, over the course of like a year.

[@voido9604]

I thought it was real and got so excited but realised this was a mod .. We all know sims is too lazy to make something so ambitious.. Also, PLEASE continue this small let’s play! I’m tired of crying in console..

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

If they were smart they'd work with the creator and make this an official part of the game :D

[@ScarlettR4364]

Same. 😭

[@KaliBella]

Ugh I thought it was real too 😭 I was so excited

[@ScarlettR4364]

I wish mermaids could give birth underwater that'd be so cool.

[@Annaleise821]

If you’re tired, buy a pc.

[@Starshinehavoc]

So sad to be a console player. Like being a lonely child in the corner of the playground while other kids are having fun playing with new toys.

[@Sp3ctralI]

I know the pain, I salute you console players for hanging in there, as an ex-console restricted myself

[@samanthaharrison2592]

I'm a console player too and on the whole I'm not too bothered about a lot of mods but I would definitely have this one. EA, please do an update for us

[@lemoniphobia]

fr 😭

[@Omgwhatisthat42]

Im a console player, got so excited that it was actually updated, found out it’s a mod and I’m so disappointed

[@WayleanWilliams]

I feel it’s not fair ! I have every pack over 600$ invested in this game and we are still limited to free updates

[@regretroulette1463]

I’m gonna be honest Satch i usually don’t care about peoples’ sims OCs but you’ve gotten me quite attached to Shanice at this point hahaha.

The polish of the animations and attention to detail, so impressive

[@GuardianStriker]

I honestly hope whoever is in charge of this mod, can do the same with the other occults too! Sometimes I feel like they could be more as well, despite being more content filled than mermaids.

[@jessimarim_m9387]

Same!! I was a little on the fence because I didnt want the mod to affect my perfectly curated mermaid lineage, but its the sims and because sims 4 made things so dry i literally play like its barbies, i dress everyone up and use my imagination. But this mod brings back the fun chaos of the sims where your dolls go off and do wild things and you have to figure things out! The i was sad with the werewolf gameplay it was a lot like mermaids after a while or a mix of mermaids and vamps, i hope they touch on those and aliens! I feel like aliens could be so much mor3 interesting especially with the Stranger things pack! Like why didnt they blend those together!

[@GuardianStriker]

@@jessimarim_m9387 You know what I really hope for? An actual better Batuu. I understand why people hate it because it's Disney Star Wars. AKA the "BAD" one put into Sims 4. But I genuinely hate it because it's just bland and dry. All it is, is just doing missions, and the alien races? Just costumes for your Sims to wear. Someone SHOULD give Batuu a massive overhaul! There's potential in it!

[@erviatangerine5108]

I believe the same creator also made Fairies vs Witches mod, which allows you sim to become a fairy, and it also very well made

[@BrianZatzke]

Also has a mod that gives us Unicorns.

[@erviatangerine5108]

@@BrianZatzke Yes, and it also has features related to FvsW, like fairy getting a special moodlet from riding a unicorn etc. Very detailed and cool.

[@Sp3ctralI]

“Mermaids are here and i a am queer” This words brought many to tears, it touched their hearts

[@alexisflory6496]

I laughed. It’s so true I and I’m playing with a mermaid in my game at the moment. She’s queer. I’m queer. We’re having fun

[@BigFanOfManyThings]

Didn’t see the rest of the title, so for a moment I thought ‘wow has Sims 4 team actually been working on making mermaids better for us?’ Oh nope, it’s down to brilliant modders again, how could I have even thought otherwise 😅

[@shuzennn]

Samee

[@claireincolour]

Spinningplumbobs creates such high quality gameplay content and it fits into the game mechanics seamlessly. Complete with animations, notifications, visual and audio effects, & skill progression. Honestly so so impressive 👏👏

[@Grumpyshibainu]

This mod plus the fairies vs witches (same creator) are must have for occults!!

[@Sandra-86]

If only EA did a refresh to the Island Living with even half of this kind of stuff... Well, one can always dream

[@shuzennn]

It feels as if they actually rely on mods to work for what they dont

[@dear_totheheart]

So amazing and just disappointing how EA doesn't put this much effort, detail, and love into their own creations and at this point expect modders to constantly do it all Also, would love for you to explore the Royalty (but specifically the Ancient Greece Royalty Mod) by llazyneiph, would be amazing and bet you'd love it!

[@yesthatmousyiris4887]

Ancient Greece?! OMG YAS

[@saal0]

I love how mad someone mystve gotten at the sims team and decided they could do it better themselves. And they were so right for that

[@xXOpenYourHeart759Xx]

Amazing mod!!!! I can't believe how legit this looks! Great animations and so many things to do! So in depth as well I love it!

[@ladyclaue]

part 2 please. we need a mermaid LP for shanice and chantalle. this mod is actually inspired by H2O, just add water. spinningplumbobs also has a unicorn mod and i am hoping he will release his spy mod soon

[@genovah5062]

Downloaded this because of your recommendation. This mod is so fun and I refuse to play without it!!

[@IuliaCovasan-nn7fh]

Hello me how did you install I have no clue

[@jessicagamesyt]

A Kelpie is a mythological sea creature in my country (Scotland) that normally takes form of a horse and encourages people to get on their back, and once people do, they drown them.

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

I need to get this mod when I'm ready to play with mermaids again lol XD such high quality, thank you SpinningPlumbobs!!!

[@OLALALA1019]

Your channel is one of my absolute favorites for the sims!!

[@ineedvyvanse3493]

I was born and raised in Scotland and my grandpa always warned me of Kelpies 😂 and yes part 2 please!!

[@erviatangerine5108]

Mermaids in Sims 3 were pretty good because of the diving areas that were interesting to explore 💁 Unfortunately, the world that had them was really lagged 😅

[@essentiallyinvisible3572]

Your energy and enthusiasm is contagious! I always end up smiling through your videos. Thanks for showing this mod :D This is what Island Living should have been.

[@dd692]

One of the most solid things this mod does is make it possible to fulfill all a sims needs without needing land things to do it.

[@LoveMe0516]

This mod is insane 😭 chef’s kiss

[@bpositive135]

Thanks Man! I was born in a land of wolf and werewolf and You Did It! You´re just a person, only one person with more talent that all a corporation. Awsome, Congrats!!!

[@brimathews1920]

Definitely need a part 2

[@opaliterose7168]

This is the most excited I’ve ever been to play the sims 4

[@albaneknoblauch1530]

I love the fact that the mermaid's cauldron is the same as Ursula's in The Little Mermaid, and the ring on the plumbob represents her fishes and her necklace as well.

[@sanecatlady]

I wasn't really paying attention and thought this was an actual update EA made, then I i read the video title 😂 I'm not sure how my expectations of EA were this high

[@arthas3687]

Honestly I love your gameplays so much and been binging them, you're so funny 😭😭😭

[@SuperBarbaranne]

This was so much fun. I really enjoyed this.

[@missdukette2168]

Wow ! This looks like so much fun !!! Part 2 would be nice. Not sure my crappy laptop will be able to handle this mod... but I will definitley try it

[@GK-ob1ni]

SpinningPlumbobs is the GOAT. Another mod that's just as good as this one is Triplis's Sorcerer mod if anyone is looking for more amazing occult mods.

[@heirofthestars]

Oh yeah its literally gamechanging!

[@shaunna6673]

I Wish that Sims 4 for would take notes on how Great Mods are! Sims 4 should totally work together with Modders! Please!

[@simsdecades]

We Need a letsplay with Shanice Shanice as a mermaid with this mod.

[@nedrane297]

Ok, so crazy thing, I've been watching a lot of mermaid horror movies lately... and then you came out with this video. I will say this is the first mod that was not 'fixes' that I really really want now. I was ok with mermaids in Sims 3, was a little disappointed with them in Sims 4, but this... this is awesome. I truly love the kelpie form!

[@cooki930]

I was SO excited to watch this video bc mermaids are the only occult sims I play and it was even better because your sim is named after me - Shanice

[@Curlsl]

if townies are busy or have to be somewhere else (work etc) they disappear and there's nothing you can do^^' sometimes they ask for a date or invite you to a party but then leave, seconds after you arrive..

[@mogumogu2024]

Wow i was looking for a proper showcase of this mod. Thank you. Could you do the fairies vs witches mod and the werewolf mod by the same modder. ❤❤😊

[@BRey-xx4sm]

he already covered fairies vs witches, it was linked at the end of the video for me

[@agatagogh7072]

The cauldron being a reskinned bird bath 😂

[@sillyalaning]

i love how they got elements from other occults and added some more of their own, if the sims did half of this work for future (or redone) occults its woukd be perfect, ufpd love to see a revamp of aliens

[@fransmith3255]

Have you heard of this new Korean life simulation game "inZOI" that is supposedly coming out in 2024? It's apparently made by KRAFTON, who have made a lot of other games. It's very Korean (very cute interactions and typical Korean body language), but that shouldn't be much of a problem, because it looks like it's going to be marketed towards western markets as well - it might even be a desired plus - Korea is pretty popular and this game looks VERY Korean - Seoul Korea in particular. It's going to have family play etc and the graphics look pretty amazingly lifelike and some amazing customisation (so far) - too good to be true I would ordinarily say, but this is a well known company. The realism of the graphics blow every other life sim out of the water - including The Sims. Looks to me like it deserves a lot more publicity.

[@labelladonna9122]

They upgraded the Spinningplumbob's extended mermaids mod? I'm so behind

[@devineinterventionneeeded]

Part 2 please, this is so good...

[@Alexandria.J.Barmer]

Really wish ea would have put this much effort into to actual pack for the sake of actually making them playable instead of a cash grabby disappointment

[@Jamielove73]

SO FUN!! Please do part 2!!

[@kimmycook2698]

Had so much fun watching this...I play with mermaids on and off...sure wish we could get a refresh on them.

[@ManaTheSacrifice]

hope the creator makes a mod for each pack now

[@MK_1Ultra]

Ive stopped playing the sims and been playing dreamlight valley, but i might jump back in. Sims 4 might be coming back.

if shanice dies, you'll be cancelled😂😂

not me swiping away that black thing above Your head as if it were like a small moth sitting on my screen.. also love to see youtubers use custom mods w sims gameplay, bc the amount of money we've Collectivly Spent on All sims franchise/games have Well & truely OverPaid for our Very Little Accessible Gameplay, that Too many people have invested in otherwise. so yasss Mod Tf away.

Why did I watch this video😭 now I have to live with the knowledge of how good this expansion could and should be

[@itsmymy_xo]

"the mermaids are here and i am a queer"... yes 👏🏽🙌🏽☀🥳💎

[@ChildOfYahuahElohim]

I was HOPEING that it didn't say "mod" in the title man💔. This absolutely sucks, why can't EA get off their behinds and make Island living better?! As a console player...we always get left out the picture, with literally everything if we don't buy it and even then we miss out on TONS of things that other players download. I wish they'd just get their ish together and DO BETTER. There's no reason why mermaids should be as shallow as they are ESPECIALLY when they proved they can go back and recode the stuff. If they can update software or whatnot for everyone's game, they should be able to do it for packs. Sick of this

[@aviswerl6372]

He is so sorry but laughing hysterically I am weak hahaha

[@nathanneoo]

this mod should be the mermaid expansion pack,, free and no bug? just beyond everything

[@jm7781]

This mod is as good as realm of magic, maybe better. I remember there was a sorceror mod that allowed you to become a cat, the spells where so much better than the ones in the game.

[@lillySims-if7gh]

I love your game plays and thank yoy for bringing another amazing mod to our attention

[@Mystic.Daydreamer_]

The way I got so excited thinking this was an actual update to the game only to realise its a mod 😭😭😭 EA allow mods on console if Skyrim can do it so can you

[@lisa06810]

Can't wait for part 2, this is amazing!!! Also, you have something poking out over your face cam....hmmmmmmm??? Looks a little like..???? 🤩😂😂

[@ukalistaxd9464]

Aside from Mermaids and Aliens being boring, does anyone remember Plant Sims? it's a very neglected Occult. Aside for it having no skilltrees it's also not a permanent occult unlike in the previous Sims games and becoming one is very tedious and obscure

[@liesbethverlaeckt8083]

omg I didn't read the full title before watching and I thought mermaids got an official refresh 😭

[@Nikki_Walker]

Yeessssssss a part two please... We need it😂❤

If first thought the sims finally did what they said they will do years ago (refresing old packs) but of course it moders that fix stuff again

[@princess22_hu]

it's the first time i'm actually interested in buying this pack omg

[@sarahann843]

At least sims 3 you can actually Sim underwater and see under

[@swanglesnax]

Okokok OKAY… I’m very easily pleased with the Sims and generally not nearly as fussy as many other Sims players, but after realizing a mod can show me what the Sims *should* resemble, I’m going to be less agreeable moving forward.

[@RainyArt-d5y]

Characters are allowed to be flawed as are real people. Trixie is a good character and comes a long way, she just has a harder time doing so. This is just a reflection of real life. Same with Fluttershy. Making a major shift in character (like introversion to extraversion or just overcoming shyness) is really difficult and you will experience many set backs and resets with that. Its also an essential part of her character that will cause issues throughout. Just some things to keep in mind

[@Leichenschrei]

okay but "Expanded Mermaids" sounds like a niche DeviantArt fetish
