[@aoifebroderick7826]

It would make sense to be Nina as she came in the base game so would therefore exist for everyone who had Malcolm. It probably is just a mistake made by the developers but there could be another reason. It’s known that Nina and Dina are part alien so maybe it’s possible that they got the aliens to wipe any memory of Nina from Malcolm . That could explain why he is still single and has yet to continue the Malcolm generation unlike every other Malcolm family in the franchises. Probably not true but it’s an idea . Love you videos xx

they were lazy with sims 4 in general...... I cant believe it! I only played the 1st sims game when I was a kid, my older cousin had it on his PC. Then I played sims 4 after I grew up. But lookin at these videos about sims 2 and 3, sims 4 could never at anything. Heck I was disappointed at University pack....... (I dont have much hopes on snowy escape pack that's coming after star wars pack)

[@ohwellwhateverr]

@@SasukeUchiha723 Sims 2 was the best game. Super rich storyline that’s still interesting/mysterious 16 years after release, good graphics (TS2 sims had the best look, imo), lots of content, great expansion packs, ran pretty well. TS3 was equally good. I loved the open world and how freeing it was. It really built upon the previous games. It had good storytelling, great graphics, loads of detail. I never got any exp packs but the base game was so packed that I never felt like I needed any. It did lag badly, but only as a result of the fact that it did so much. TS4? Utter shit. Yes, the graphics are cool and if you’re into house design then it is better than previous games. And it runs very smoothly. But only because there’s nothing in it! They sold an incomplete game. With the base game alone, you’d get bored with it after a couple days, and even with exp packs it’s nowhere near as good as the previous base games on their own. The storytelling is rehashed to nonexistent, sims interactions are bugged, the moodlet feature doesn’t work (a sim can be grieving over their relative who just died but if you get them to pet a cat, the happiness moodlet overrides the grief - it makes no sense). Basic mechanics like a group convo or talking to a sim while sitting or holding a baby don’t work (ts2 did them fine). The whole game feels soulless. The sims don’t have personalities. They’ve wiped out the spontaneity or quirkiness we loved in the other games. They’ve also made it a lot more kid-friendly, so it feels dumbed down and sanitised. With all the half-assed expansion packs it feels like an unapologetic cash grab. EA have undone all the great work Maxis did originally. It’s a steaming pile of shit and as I’m sure you can tell by the length of this comment I am still pissed.

During my last Sims 3 gameplay everyone died in the Landgraab household, except for Geoffry. I remarried him, but as soon as I switched active households, the wife was dead. I don't trust the Landgraabs. They give me Lannister vibes.

[@JustMe-vo5er]

Actually if you look at it this way Landgraabs are the Sims eqvivalent of Lannisters, Goths then are the Targaryens, and Altos are Baratheons. Goths are the most popular, powerful family, with the greatest legacy. Altos are chaotic evils with internal struggles (Holly is not evil unlike her parents). And these two families mirror eachother like polar opposites. And the Landgraabs profit no matter what. They have the money, and they would probably support the ,,winning side".

They own holiday homes in all holiday destinations and also in the holiday destinations i made. They own also several resorts everywhere, other houses and mansions, nightclubs, bars, shops and other community lots (for example the Van Reichpeitsche Country club). They have a huge and creepy family graveyard, and a lot of their relatives spook around the old family castle. Its dark and creepy and super luxurious. They own my neighborhood, they even own me because i'm so addicted to the game it's incredible gameplay because of playing with them ;) aahhhh i love sims 2. You can be so creative there

[@Myne1001]

Admiral Landgraab seems to be a lot of references to British colonialism. The part about his "undoing at the hand of island natives" is most likely a reference to Captain James Cook, famed British explorer, most notable for mapping the east coast of Australia. He was killed by some native Hawaiians in 1779.

Nancy really said: I hate poor people, they disgust me.

[@ws5884]

I’ve always believed that Queenie’s Death, Nancy’s Mother, is a mystery. I believe that the Altos are responsible for it. Bert Alto, Nick’s Brother, in his bio says he may be hiding from his brother. Maybe Nick framed him of killing Queenie. I also believe the two brothers used to like Vita, who’s clearly jealous of Nancy, but Nick ruined it as clearly Vita and Bert have similar traits (Schmoozer and Snob) . So due to their mutual hatred of the Landgraabs, Nick planned to cause a fire so that he can show Vita how despicable he is like her, but things got out of hand. In conclusion, I’m a bit delusional when it comes to sims 3 family backgrounds.

[@chor2336]

Actually, Lola Lancaster from Lucky Palms had an affair with both Nick and Bert at some point in her life (her daughter Lina looks exactly like them). I think they found out that she was cheating on them with eachother and then they became enemies.

[@oljamedvedjeva3763]

I love the fact that in the Sims 2, they chose Malcolm to be the IV of his name ( playing on the sound Malcolm Landgraab the Force a.k.a. the Force to be reckoned with?) Also I'm not sure what exactly is said in his family/Sim bio, but in Russian version of the game it is mentioned something about "whether he could restore the mistakes of his parents". Now, his parents died young in the fire, leaving young Malcolm in the care of his grandfather, Malcolm Landgraab II. In Bluewater Village there is a community lot called Bluewater Village Real Estate Office, and the description says that it (along with all the land) WAS managed by the Landgraab dynasty and is now up for grabs. NOW WHAT IF Malcolm's parents were careless and lost the lion's share of the family fortune, causing Malcolm Landgraab II to kill his own son and daughter in law in a fire in order to raise Malcolm Landgraab IV the "proper way" so that he could restore the family fortune and grab all the land in Bluewater Village?

Whenever I think of sims families the Landgrabbs and the Goths always come to mind for me haha, but I suppose that’s because they have pretty much appeared in all sims games. With the Sims 2 I found it frustrating with Malcolm’s last name having IV in it because whenever you would make him marry someone then they would also have the IV part in the last name and it don’t make sense for them to have it. Luckily you can change it with this program called Sims PE, but back then I didn’t know about Sims PE so the woman was always stuck with the IV part which was annoying to me haha. I always use to make him marry Nina all the time because of the picture with him and her in the hot tub so it made sense to me.

In Sim City 3000 I think he (Malcom) is also the one that rewards the defense contractor. To be fair most of the buildings he lobbies for have a positive effect, save the toxic waste disposal plant. I guess you can say the casino is mixed, but it increases the residential cap which more than makes up for the minor crime increase, and the 350$ (or 300$, been awhile since I played) monthly is a nice bonus. The rest of them are all positive things though, especially the theme park which increases the residential cap by some crazy amount, like 200k or something like that. Out of all the lobbyists in Sim City 3k he is probably the sleeziest besides Vinnie.

Edit: However I wonder if the red haired girl in Sims 2, whomever she may be, is part of the red head Landgrabs in the Sims 3 timeline even so there seems to be some sort of detail that I can't put my finger on but the only thing I noticed and that consists is Langrabs are blondes and red heads, preset that is.

30 minutes of lore? You made my day!

[@Seiferboi]

In my Sims 3 console playthrough, the family I created had sn elder Sim whom I gave the story of being Malcolm's brother. Malcolm stole his fortune, so the elder Sim had to move into a house with his two sons, their wives and his grandkids. It was fun until the file got corrupted and everything was erased! 😭

[@Intoxicatingaxe]

I never knew she was in the criminal career in the sims 4 until my sim joined the career and I saw she was a coworker?? Insane!

[@tabijulienne]

Oh myyyy a 30 min one! Keep up the good work!

[@inactiveaccountdontrespond9409]

I've been waiting for this day.

[@jennygump813h2]

If you did more lore for the Sims Medieval, that would be awesome! It's such a fun game :)

[@augustinesim1672]

07:15 depending on the gender? What? That's weird since with the sims you've always had the option to choose any regardless of your character's gender; sims 1, sims 2, sims 2 spinoffs, sims 3 etc... 11:53 chateau du landgraab has always been one of my favourite exploring spots in France and in general, to be honest. My poor sims have been electrocuted so many times there lmfaoo

[@Yungtacosss]

I loved this video! so much cool info about the Landgraabs I never knew about! :D

[@Gleamiarts]

Admiral Landgrab might have a parallel with Thomas Cook, who was also killed by natives to an island that he colonised

[@MonstehDinosawr]

James... Thomas Cook was an airline looool

[@daphnia9664]

your videos make quarantine a little bit better

[@itamarmedeirosnetto]

I Always found so cool all the men Called malcolm on the family tree but in the sims 3 and 4 they took that alway

[@noyoucantnoicantnowecantsostop]

Landgraab also appeared urbz: the sims & sims bustin' out GBA version. Which in urbz he's the main villain (yet his son is one of the helpers)

[@BellaBlossom]

11:12, I was not expecting to see Admiral Horatio Nelson being apart of the Landgrabb family, I suppose you learn something new everyday.

[@davidgregoryshair1456]

Good research! I don't necessarily buy the canonical timeline thing, but if it does exist, you've sorted this family well. There are mentions of the Landgraab name in "S2: Castaway" for the console. That game has a special place in my heart, because my entry into The Sims came with the disappointing Wii version of Sims 3. I found Castaway in the pre-owned section of Game Stop and fell in love! That led me to S2 for PC then Sims Medieval and that back to the satisfying S3 for PC! By my reckoning, according to the canonical timeline, Malcolm in S3 Sunset Valley would be "Malcolm II" as he would have to be the grandfather of Malcolm IV. As we known from the Royals, "II" doesn't always equate to "Jr." So maybe Geoffrey's brother or favorite uncle was Malcolm I. Getting back to the Castaway refs: Have we ever seen a Moneywell? And, if not, why not? Maybe they're antecedents of the Altos... Looking forward to more from Bluewater Village!

[@itsCazarex]

yesssss long video! more of this please

[@zaiden2becausejustzaidenisused]

The Bluewater village Malcom is probably the nicest Landgrabb.

[@tonichan89]

Shopping in Sims 2 was SO satisfying! The little bags! And as shocking as it is... it was FUNCTIONAL.

[@Kazuyuki33]

17:05 Wow, a pc player talking about Moonlight Bay, i have to be dreaming now

[@rachael5300]

I come downstairs after working out (not to flex tho...) and open my laptop to a 30min lore video?? I'm excited! :))

[@le96g]

I love TSM and I never noticed the Landgraabs there :O That connects TSM to the rest of the franchise's universe 🌈💕

[@billydeeuk]

I always feel like the Dina photo in Malcom’s memory was meant to be a hint from developers as to how they wanted Malcolm’s story to progress - that he was the next millionaire in the Calente sisters’ sights. I get how you couldn’t have them know each other in the base game as while every Neighbourhood could have a Bluewater Village, the sisters were only in Pleasantview. However a patch to given them memories and a relationship would have been nice, if such a thing was possible

[@charlenefaye]

one thing I heard is that Johnny Zest, in the sims 4, Is the oldest Landgrab Child but was excommunicated by his parents because he wantes to become a comedian. So he took his stage name as his RL name after his parents threw him out.

[@markabele8794]

Thanks for the in depth lineage of the Landgraab family. I enjoyed it.

[@dreadfuldee2432]

Thank you for such a fascinating study

[@renemendoza4461]

Your stories are just amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

[@robroush2142]

Switching Mr. Alto to the Criminal career, part of his lifetime wish, will fix the inter-office rivalry with him and Nancy. #HappyEndingsForAllSims

[@ohno4865]

Yay! I love your videos :)

[@alishamaerajasmin5975]

im so happy with ur video omg

[@Illfection]

i love how comprehensive these are

[@MrIvory]

30 min?!?! Yessss thank you quarantineeee

[@charmedlife1990]

In Sims 4 when left to their own devices Nancy and Geoffrey always have 2 more kids and they are always either boys or girls, never a mix. I enjoy messing with this family so my sim or their kids always work their way over to the family somehow.

[@PassportToAsia]

I was introduced to the landgraabs & the sims franchise in the sims for PS. I loved it so much

[@jayypee6491]

Woah, I noticed you used photos from the LPArchive Let's Play of SC3000 for the Malcolm segment. What did you think of it? It's one of my favorite LP's.

[@thetbubsi]

I just wanted to tell you, I love your videos so much and I’m so excited for this long one! 30 minutes, hell yes! 😍 Thank you for doing this :)

[@cherrrybracelets]

I’m playing a Landgraab “legacy” in Sims 3 right now lol. Both Nancy and Geoffrey are retired and have fulfilled their lifetime wishes. Malcolm just started a career in Medicine and is engaged to Bella. They had an additional son, Maxwell, who’s nearly mastered the guitar and piano skills and wants to be a composer? (i can’t remember what the lifetime wish is tbh). Also! They reconciled with the Altos. In my game, I’ve completely neglected a lot of the negative aspects of the lore lmao. I’ve loved playing them so far.
