Doesn't mean he was murdered. Remember, he was a "tragic" clown, meaning he was depressed. What I believe, is that he took his own life. It's really creepy.

In World Adventures, Sims from China will not use a fork but chopsticks to eat. It seems to be a genetic trait, because when you marry a sim from China and have babies, they have it too ^^

[@litchtheshinigami8936]

MimiWalburga it is a trait yeah.. it's a hidden trait called chinese culture. You also have one for france and egypt i believe.. and there is another hidden trait wich makes your sim a pyromaniac.. and you are literally able to set stuff on fire.. i believe a vampire has it in the midnight pack... or at least i remember him having it in my game...

[@elderscrollsswimmer4833]

Fire-fighters can have it, along with "immune to fire"- trait. And it is genetic.Other NPCs have those too, (as well as some professions, like military giving the 'can salute').

depends tho. my sim had a baby with a Chinese person and the children didnt eat with chopsticks.

@@TaikaJamppa well i don't have the expansion with the firefighter career.. (it's literally the only one i was never able to obtain due to our local gamestore being too stuck up to order it for me.. like i want to give you money THEN LET ME ) other than those vampires i'm not sure what sims might get it tho. i did once had a mod that added it in as a regular trait.. though it unfortunately clashed with another mod (i think it clashed with the mod that unhides hidden skills.. so things like the dancing or chess skill are shown instead of hidden for me. ) but i'm not sure so i unfortunately had to take it out after it made my game unplayable. there are also other hidden traits however. for example sims that come from the vacation worlds will have one of 3 hidden traits that rely on their world.. sims from china for example will have the chinese sim one and will instead of shaking hands when greeting a sim bow to them and instead of eating with a fork eat with chopsticks.. where the sims from france will kiss one another on the cheeks when greeting new sims..

In Midnight Falls in the Sims 3 Supernatural, theres the "Swain" household that all but copies the characters of Twilight. 😂 There's a teenaged daughter named "Bailey" with long brown hair and casual clothes who lives with her father "Chester" who is, wait for it, a cop! In the family summary it mentions that Chester "is worried about his daughter as she has a thing with all things supernatural...".... Yeah....totally check it out.... 😂

Of course, the second and the first game are good games too but no Sims game replaces the open world feeling to me.

In supernatural, if a witch magics a wardrobe so you magical adventures inside, you end up into a snowy forest and an ice lady offers you candy that was morphed in the snow.

The Sims 3 was great for playing in an ever extending story, I loved the open world and the story progression. It really rooted your sims into the world, if your sim was a politician, he'd have politician friends, have to organize fundraisers etc. they would live the life of a politician among people who individually lived their own lives. There was so much happening at once! I know it's not a great experience for everyone and it certainly doesn't look as polished as the sims 4 but I personally could never transition into ts4.

I have a Sims 4 easter egg to tell! If you have ever played Minecraft, there is this block in the Nether, or, Hell Biome, called Glowstone. The block emits light, and is usually found on the walls/ceilings of the hellish place. In the fourth game of The Sims series, there is a wall lamp called Glowstone Lamp, and its description reads: 'Luminescent stone from the depths of the earth! Ponder it's mysterious origins and geochemical makeup while brushing your teeth!' Glowstone is a Luminescent stone in Minecraft Hell, and where is Hell most usually theorized to be by the religious? Underground, near the earth's core. I am surprised nobody thought of this!

@@gidanmed I can't play TS4 without mods. At least to give the game some story progression instead of the townie slowly been replaced by stranger 😅

[@gidanmed]

@@blameitondanny me too!!!! I have 87767 mods in my game heheheheheheheheh mods ad infinitum

[@blameitondanny]

@@gidanmed I only need less than 5 mods for sims 3. All of them are Nraas mods. Although the only reason I play TS4 is because I like decorating sims houses and TS4 had so much potential with decorating department.

[@oh016gamevideos]

In the Sims 2 there is a sculpture called "Milo Venus". The exactly same sculpture also appears in the Sims 3 but there it is called "Medusa Victim". Did you ever wonder why that name was changed? Now here is a possible explanation for that: There was a modded object for the Sims 2 called the "Sculpture Manufactory" hosted at MTS. One of the sculptures that could be crafted by your Sim with this Sculpture Manufactory Mod was a Medusa sculpture. And the credits of the mod mentioned that - while the body of Medusa and all the other sculptures were new creations by the modder - the head of Medusa had been taken and modified from the original Milo Venus. So I suppose when the developers decided to add sculpturing to the Sims 3 they did refer to the Milo Venus sculpture having fallen "victim" to serve as Medusas head with the mod sculpture. If you compare the Sims 2 mod and the Sims 3 EA sculpturing animations you will notice that - although those of EA are of course done more professionally and refined - there are a lot of similarities in sims postures and movements during the process. So it seems the developers got inspired by the mod - like they did in several other cases of Sims 2 mods too - and when they implemented the feature into Sims 3 they just thought it was amusing to point to the origin of their idea.

In the Sime 3 Supernatural, when you hide your sim in some wardrobes he can go to Narnia.

[@huliahoop5662]

Man this really makes me wanna download sims 3 again

I remember going to the future and seeing futurama sims and I thought it was so cool. I never knew they had a portal refrence? Gosh I love the sims 3.

[@ryanallen8455]

The open world's keep me playing the sims 3 over the sims 4

I love going back in some of my favorite youtubers videos and just seeing the low quality mic and slight awkwardness, especially compared to the improvement later on. Onlyabidoang has come a long way since 2016, and it's epic.

[@treefrog1018]

In Supernatural, Moonlight Falls holds a family of three witches. Clearly a nod to the TV show Charmed (the old version from the late 90s, not the current version that I believe began in 2018).

[@Simarchy]

Very cool! I didn't know most of these!!

[@m.marten6525]

In Sims 3 Bella Goth is a child and is still called Bella Bachelor. In Sims 2 she's a grown up to begin with.

[@elinsulin]

I thought it was 25 years

[@LPMisa]

@@elinsulin it has to be because Bella is an Adult and not a Senior, or am i mistaken

[@elinsulin]

@@LPMisa No, it's canon that the sims 2 takes place 25 years after the sims 3

[@ZarlaCrepsley13]

There's also a sim in sunset valley referencing Tobias Funke from Arrested Development who has the never nude trait lol!

[@stonersiren]

I've played Sims 3 for hundreads of hours and yet knew only 8 of those. Really great video!

[@wikstr18]

Please do another video like this but about the Sims 2, I love Easter eggs and all that stuff

[@kavinaderrow3269]

My favorite Sims 3 easter egg is, sometimes, during the Summer Festival, Luke Bryan's Country Girl (Shake it for Me Girl) can be heard at the park playing over the radio.

[@romasandred.108]

Wow! Better Call Saul/Breaking Bad exists in this game? These are my fav show and game.

[@kichapi]

I love how the Sims lore thrived during Sims 1 - Sims 3 . . what happened to Sims 4? 😔

[@LonelySpaceDetective]

I feel like the people working on The Sims 4 no longer (if they ever did) have any passion for the series anymore, and are just looking for a paycheck. I might be off-base; for all I know TS4's issues and missing features might be pressure from EA and the devs dislike the situation as much as we do, but that's genuinely the impression I get. For all the things I wish returned from 2 and issues I have with its confused chronology, TS3 still feels like the last game made by people who enjoyed the series and wanted to make it better.

[@kichapi]

@@LonelySpaceDetective yes, they just don't have the 'heart' of the previous games. . if you look at Sims 2 for the first time, it seems limited since you only get to play a household and can only load one lot at a time. But once you play it, you'll never be bored. Transitioning from Sims 2, Sims 3 feels magical. Just walking (or driving) around and finding weird plants to harvest outside of a school building is very novel. Then you see that they are adding new or well-thoughtout mechanics like gathering materials for an invention, family-oriented stuff (except for the imaginary friend - i hate it), islands, underwater, boats that really gets you somewhere, LOOTING FOR TREASURES (that you can interact with), etc. Then we have Sims 4. It's sad. They are adding (I can see that some employees are really trying their best but I guess their ideas doesn't fully make the cut) features but it's bland. It's like chewing different looking dishes but they all tasteless and textureless.

[@Marlonxx_]

I luv the sims 3 background music i dont know why its so freakin cool

[@ARGhostie]

This is actually really cool :D I didn't know about most of these.

[@maybellique]

I love the time machine in sims 3!! I mean the rabbit hole one. My sim came back with a little boy she had rescued and he became her son. That was so awesome!!

[@brendentinf6652]

In the "into the future" expansion pack when tuning up a plumbot, the tool you use closely resembles a sonicscrewdriver from the show Doctor Who. A show about a Alien time traveler

[@kabumek]

there's an archway called the "No Surprises Please Archway" which is a reference to the Radiohead song No Surprises; the description ends with saying "You'll have such a pretty house with no alarms and no surprises".

[@joeywild2011]

Oh my god I love the Chelsea + Gladys PORTAL reference!!!

[@deliaschoonbeewaterworth124]

Joey Wild me too

[@Praecantetia]

so do I! but I think the robot should've been p-body instead. it suits the design more than glados.

[@joeywild2011]

Praecantetia Sure, but Glados is a more prominent character

[@onlyabidoang]

+Joey Wild plus they both are enemies which makes more sense

[@perpetualsystems]

I mean,in the game, Chell never happens to encounter P-Body, so it wouldn't make sense. But having "Gladys" living with her doesn't make sense either, as she doesn't have a robot body that small. (I never finished Portal 2 so don't blame me okay) EDIT: Also Chell and Glados are mostly sworn enemies so yeah.

[@9ightdreamer]

Since I played The Sims FreePlay I cant help but think of it whenever I hear some of the voices or music/sound effects.

[@ElsonBelson]

In the sim 3 university, there are two sims who resembles Sheldon and Leonard from the Big Bang theory.

[@CityofJade]

There's a family in Oasis that are a reference to Doctor Who, a popular sci-fi show about a time traveling alien. The family consists of three members. Rory, his daughter Melody, and a toddler named Amy. If you look at their family tree the toddler is shown as Melody's mother. In the actual show, Rory and Amy lost their daughter to villains who wanted her for her Time Lord abilities. But Melody escaped and upon her death, regenerated, and went back in time to be raised alongside her parents.

[@gabbwr2]

I have a theory The sims 2 is after the sims 3, but so is the sims 4 my theory is that you played the sims 2 then went to play the sims 3, but since the sims 3 happened first, because you messed with the timeline, the sims 4 happened instead

[@gabbwr2]

Of the sims 2

[@gabbwr2]

Of the sims 2

[@noelle2k3]

what?

[@snazzy9175]

that makes very little since but i love it

[@Kropolis]

why does the sims need a story timeline... why can't it just be a simple simulation game.

[@skeltheshapeshifter2697]

Oh my god- I never knew about the Portal and Futurama references! That's amazing! I'd seen Gladys around before, and drew the connection, but I'd always thought it was just a coincidence. That's fucking awesome!

[@sugaloaf9889]

There's also the Castle family in Oasis Landing, based on the Castles in the ABC television show.

[@wolfiemix]

I had the game MySims a few years ago, but when we moved from Florida to Michigan, it disappeared somewhere, but I LOVED that game. I had a bee outfit on, and I would do the minigames for hours!. Then, 3 years ago, in Michigan, at my Public Library, there is a video game section. I got Sims 2 Castaway. It was okay... I enjoyed trying to see what animals I could tame, I don't think any where tameable, but I got bored of it 2 weeks later after I started getting into difficult gameplay stuff.

There is a grave in Roaring Heights(Resting Meadows) which contains Malcolm Landgraab.

Also in Into The Future there's two Sims dressed and named similarly to Amy Pond and Rory Williams from Doctor Who :)

Oh fun fact, the Crumplebottom sisters in Moonlight Falls are a reference to the show Charmed. They even have names starting with the same letters, its just B not P.

One of the shows on TV is Casablanca and on Cookin Cable there is a version of Iron Chef.
