I love how seeing a unicorn in the Sims 3 is like an incredibly rare occurrence, and Kevin somehow finds one. Wow.

[@psyducktective]

Reminds me how basically with my friends we’ve had a minecraft server off and on for the past several years and one friend made a whole drowned farm to grind trying to get a trident in the past. Then a couple weeks ago we had a friend join in that had not played in years, was getting a tour of the server and he saw his first drowned, killed it, and Immediately got a trident

[@rosalind2017]

Finding that unicorn in particular is extremely obnoxious and difficult. Getting to the unicorn in time to interact with it is even less likely. Being just randomly on the lot it spawns on, with no idea how rare it is, is a very Kevin thing to happen.

[@wandauriel]

I think that Unicorn just knew Kevin is s princess and wanted to see for itself 😂

[@lgbtyler6791]

In my experience, unicorns and aliens only appear when you FIRST load up the game/world. I have very rarely seen them occur otherwise. Pretty much anytime I've freshly installed Seasons on a computer the following night an alien comes to visit and then never again.

[@kathaai]

There is a replacement world that you can download that fixes some of the routing problems.

[@sneedwashere]

It’s really gross of EA to leave old classic titles such as the original Sims 1, 2, and 3 trilogy to basically become abandonware by not optimizing them for modern machines. You know they’re refusing to do this because they don’t want people to stop spending money on the inferior Sims 4. Really scummy business practice but typical for a company like EA.

[@dietrich4951]

Hey Kevin, the likely reason for the lag is that the map you picked, Isla Paradiso, is famously broken and buggy. Unfortunately you can't fix it once you've properly started playing, and if you just move neighborhoods the data will still be in the save, including the corrupted bits. I recommend copying the important characters and pasting them in a fresh save game and fresh map. It also helps to turn off packs you're not planning to use, like in this case Into the Future

[@roeroethaboat]

how do you copy/paste them into a new save?

[@demivanderschaar5123]

@@EighmyLupin In my experience you don't need to block off gameplay or immersion elements in the sims 3 to fix the broken parts though. Yes, there are in-game fixes, but I've never in my 10 years of my experience have to disable a pack or turn off nor even delete households for it to run better. And 9 of those years have been without mods and just looking where in gameplay or save files/ cache stuff it could fix it. And believe me I for sure played Island Paradise for irl weeks before it was really that bad. (from what I've seen other people have it.) That's why I was so surprised when I played the sims 4 and found gameplay you just couldn't do because of bugs. Especially since 3 is known to be a bad case of bugging and lag. The sims 3 should be fine with some adjustments, but no need to hold back on all the exploration the entirety of the game should have. There are other solutions, in what I've seen. That's atleast more so what my point was.

[@wraithflowers]

the sims 3 is one of my favorite games, so i'm glad kevin came back to play it again! it's a lot more fun and definitely more odd than people think it is. also, a little note for kevin: the world you picked can be laggy at times, but there are fairly easy fixes. also, the smooth patch is super helpful if you decide to play again!

[@redmist6630]

[@senorMckenzie]

For me, even the patches and fixes for it through mods the world was just unplayable it froze every 5 seconds. I think it has to do with the million Sims running around going from boat to taxi to jetski to boat all over the island, which with the sims 3 already being insanely un stable and demanding makes it ten times worse so I think his best bet is just playing on a new world

he just needs to delete the problematic households, with the Sims that get stuck in items and cause memory crashes. it'll work fine afterwards :) edit: there is a list online of the problematic households! it's mostly the ones that live on beach/water houses. you just have to delete the Sims living there, not the houses themselves. i did it on my save because it was literally unplayable, and it fixed things a LOT. it still was a bit laggy but not the full memory crashes (when animations still run but time freezes and you can't to anything, thats a memory crash because there is too many sims doing things at the same time)

[@ha_des]

hi Kevin! the freezes and lags you experienced weren't from the graphics! it's a common bug in the Island DLC. on the island are a lot of houses with certain items that makes sims get stuck in it, which causes memory crashes the more you play it. to fix it you just have to delete all the households sims that live on beach houses and houseboats (you can find a list of the precise households online!). there are also mods to make it run smoother (i recommand the NRAAS Error trap and Overwatch, there are other recommandations in the replies to this comment).

[@shiannafoxx]

@@Muffinatito I think you're confusing Sims 4 with 3. I've never felt like I had to play with mods to enjoy it. The only ones I have are cc items like clothing and hair and necessary mods to make the game run smoother like NRAAS mods. Sims 4 on the other hand...

[@ihavenodesiretocreateahandle]

I know this is an old(ish) comment, but I'd like to recommend smthing! there's a mod (tuning mod) on MTS for ts3 called _Reduce/Remove Lag caused by Houseboats,_ which made Isla Paradiso play sooo much better in my game! The tuning mod legit just sets the "enter helm disallow autonomous" to True (when False, NPCs can move houseboats, which causes signifigant lag). Player sims can still move houseboats!! the mod also changes the houseboat xml so that NPCs will not move ports (apparently even when they can't get to the helm, they still move ports, lol). also NRAAS' _Overwatch_ and _Error Trap_ are wonderful for my game

The best thing I've ever seen in the Sims 3 was my Sim Robert protesting against death. He gathered quite the crowd in front of town hall. Impressive, really. I laughed so hard at the absurdity. Then I heard my Sims scream in terror when he keeled over dead followed by the grim reaper showeing up pissed and yelling at Roberts corpse. He brought him back to life and I got a message like: "That's your first and final warning. Next time I won't be in such a generous mood...". Poor guy was so terrified that he ran away screaming and the crowd of sims scattered. What a game! ^^

[@lgbtyler6791]

Oh my god, I didn't know that could happen! Now imma go start a protest against death lmao

[@laussi2784]

It's so funny cause just 2 days before Kevin uploaded this video I tried that protest and I saw my sim die. I was like "wtf, I thought it wouldn't actually k!ll me unless I do it three times!" Luckily enough, the Reaper brought my sim back to life, warned me and left. And then I immediately started another protest against it lol

[@TheDiner50]

That is nothin. I built a house boat with a small toilet room and no showers. I knew that inventing stuff at the worktable was likely going to set my sim on fire. But I really did not have the space for a shower but only a free standing bath outdoor. Anyways. I knew that I was on a boat and was able to jump into the water. So ofc when I was set on fire I jumped into the water. My main sim STILL burning and screaming after landing in the water. XD I laugh so badly but got my sim so swim to shore and find a shower in time! Like wow. I reconfigured my boat to have a shower next to the workbench after that.

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

This is the level of absurdity in the Sims 3 that I lived for when playing. The craziest thing I remember offhand right now, was playing on a lot with some horses; one of them bugged out and somehow got stuck in the house's kitchen when I was looking elsewhere for a minute (although I was playing on the fastest speed and think that contributed).

[@murphychurch8251]

I love Sims 3's open world for all the absurd scenes you can spot somewhere by coincidence. For example some NPC crossing a frozen lake all through the night with slow and careful steps instead of taking a cab to get to the other side within a couple of minutes. And then she collapsed from exhaustion after reaching the other shore. Admittedly I hoped the ice would melt halfway. 😆 Or once I had a family dad die by fire, the wife got him back as a ghost. They had some ghost babies, the eldest became a policeman. When he went to work you could see his colleagues pass out at the sight of him. Whenever I saw people dropping somewhere afar I knew that's where my son was.

My favorite Sims 3 memory was when I just got Generations, a kid in one of my families got an Imaginary Friend, she was the same age as him and only he could see her or interact with her, everyone else saw a doll and she wasn't in anyone else's contacts. She was there aging up with him through his child and teen phases and he was studying logic to turn her real. The second he aged up, he made her a potion that made her real, then immediately romanced and married her, when she literally knew no one else but him in the entire world.

It’s really helpful to have a genie in your household. The food they summon is automatically perfect quality and they can use their cleaning ability on anyone at any time (even if the person is doing something like sleeping or going to work). They can also magically clean any house and some buildings. Ensorcelling Sims is a great way to speed up relationship progress and banishing someone just teleports them to a random spot on the map. A good way to speed up relationship progress without a genie is a friendship potion. There’s one that increases friendship a little (Jar of Friendship) and one that increases it a lot (Jar of Potent Friendship). These potions have a chance of showing up at the elixir shop or for a more reliable way to get them, your Sim can learn to make them themselves with an alchemy station.

Kevin, the first series I ever watched was you playing sims 3 on your other channel! I was THERE when Jim Pickens was born! I was THERE!

[@Amarenamann]

"Curry! I fekin love curry! CURRY!" -Jim Pickens

[@Frenchaboo]

I knew this video was going to be great from the moment Kevin picked one of the most notoriously broken, laggy and buggy worlds in The Sims 3.

[@clairegunn9088]

Sims 3 and Kevin share a motto: never let ‘em know your next move

[@onerva.]

yess as someone with a huge soft spot for Sims 3 I can't wait for Kevin to thoroughly break this game 💚

[@LavenderCorpses]

Nothing will ever be scarier than the Sims 3 emotion icons, like seriously, I don't know who gave the designer permission to put so much uncanny realism onto smiley faces

[@kawaiiblossom3117]

This just makes me realize how strict sims 4 is 😅😬

[@Ellisepha]

I love how Help Me can basically mind control people, but does it almost exclusively to get (basically) sexually assaulted. Curious one, isn't he 😂

[@Ellisepha]

@@sunny-lm2np it's the absurdity of it. No, rape isn't funny, but why does he use his powers to make other people kiss him, when he doesn't actually want to be kissed by them? It doesn't make sense and that's what makes this situation absurd and funny. Also, it's not a situation that can be recreated irl, since magic isn't real, so calm down.

[@eyeballsoup1443]

ah, the sims 3. the first real sims game i got to play since my Aunt and Uncle had it on their computer. NGL I still think of it often; I made a real pretty buff girl with neon pink hair and then actually gave building the home myself a try. That sim got a "nicely decorated" happy moodlet every time she entered the house. Still proud of that. Good times

[@Xenophenous]

A lot of comments are saying that disabling Isla Paradiso and Into the Future will improve performance, and while that is true, what helps even more in my experience, is enabling the game to use more than 128MB of video memory (no, I'm not joking). There's a config file somewhere where you can do this, can't remember where it is exactly. There's also mods you can install that improve stability by catching errors and fixing them as they happen, like cars not despawning and sims getting stuck in pathing loops.

[@mrcreed1256]

Genies were one of the best life states to play in this game. I used to just enscroll other sims and then sell all their belongings. Ended up making millions.

[@cobaltpluto2019]

“I forgot you were insane why am I trying to reason with you?” Everything makes me think of her.

[@kodakkushi]

Kevin making an abomination in the first 3 minutes is quite fitting for the Sims 3 experience

[@mewhotkoko]

I LOVE the Sims 3 and somehow you made it so much more chaotic lmao

[@TheAdamChaney]

I used to love waking up the household with the loud radio. Mixed with the obnoxious dancing and the annoyed Sims, it was hilarious. 😂

[@VultureSkins]

There is sooo much to explore in the sims 3. Like as much as Kevin gets out of the other sims games, I think the sims 3 is a perfect match for his chaos lol

[@lucienfortner841]

Kevin really is a character creation genius.

[@jordanbeebe139]

Kevin and the sims are the best combo. I can’t get enough. There’s never enough sims Kevin! Keep ‘em coming

[@Yunachan2]

out of all the areas he could have chosen, he chose the world which has lag issues lol classic kevin luck

[@PurpleJamOfficial]

Usually all your sims videos are wild but the game in general is so wild that you don’t even have to do anything 😂

[@ghrasta.]

Day 306 of asking Kevin to play Disney Princess: Enchanted Journey

[@Drayton226]

Lol

[@babyoinks1106]

YES

[@ffaemt3388]

Counterargument: no Countercounterargument: yes

[@refertomeasdylan9999]

yes

[@DignityDC]

Lol

[@meganradley7084]

This is what I need in my life, a way to watch someone play the sims 3 so I can avoid all the frustrating loading screens and bugs

[@Provlematic]

You've been feeding us Sims content lately and I'm so here for it! 💚

[@LavenderCorpses]

This game has the most chaotic (and fun) add-ons in the Sims, I would LOVE to see Kevin discover all the weird stuff it has. Like jellybean ghosts!

[@solis_void]

This video gave me so much nostalgia. I use to play the sims 3 all the time as a kid. Love this type of chaotic content.

[@ninjastellar]

with sims, it's unhinged to begin with but, the more expansions u install, the more chaotic it becomes. at least u have some cool furniture then.

[@mar-nyan]

straight up the best sims game, would love to see more ts3 from you

[@Toasteawitch]

I haven't laughed so hard in a while. Kevin playing more Sims 3 is a 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 (although I know how laggy and unplayable it gets).

[@mozzeralleh]

The second time I played the sims 3 glitched out and never let me play again

[@ashleyb1949]

I love the sims 3 so much, I enjoy seeing people play for the first time because it’s so weird 😂 I love the video Kevin! Also, the game could be laggy because of the Island world, that was a very laggy pack. I hope that helps a bit!

[@strikeryellow2093]

You should try some of the nraas mods for the performance issues like error trap,master controller and story progression;they are a must for me personally.

[@noise.cannon]

Kevin you're gonna love turning the future into an Apocalypse. No seriously, there's a "quest" for that

[@kayk6330]

he did that already!

[@chillax319]

The sims 1 and 3 are my favouriite. I bounched off the second Sims thanks to looong loading times, I had my sims being stuck at home because of this. Sims 3 also has long loading times but at the same time you load up the whole city. Freedom of being able to leave the home like that it was and still is amazing to me. If only Sims 3 and it's dlc had normal pricing I'd buy it. Edit: Yeah, that city/islands you picked up is a bit more laggy. I really recommend using Nraas master controller mod in Sims 3 to keep the lag lower via cleaning up the whole city of stuck sims and the likes.

[@samwisegamgee1243]

Finally, a game more unhinged than Kevin himself. A worthy competitor!

[@potterpasta]

The SIms 3 is definitely the best in the series. I mean. You can literally have a vampire fairy who time travels into the future and builds robots, then make those robots marry aliens and ride unicorns. All while maintaining a high level career in politics.

[@epli72]

I have the deepest respect for kevin.. to think he gamles with his sanity for his fans like this, truly admirable!!

[@RuneTacticss]

There are a ton of Sims 3 mods, and I'm sure there's a lot that can fix the whole low fps issue, a lot of people experience low frame rate in this game

[@gifographicmemory]

hearing Kevin pronounce Persephone as "purse-eh-phone" is just amazing LOL

[@Decipher13]

And Matt-ee-oh

[@lalalanidani]

The way he really thanos snapped an innocent sunbather at the fucking beach... and then decided summoning an entire roasted chicken would be even cooler as a genie before any of the OTHER fucked options for supernaturals 😂😂

[@jazzpancake1167]

I love that you managed to recreate your fallout character on the sims 3! Hope you feel better soon and never apologise for Sims content :D

[@sixeagle6466]

The sims 3 was one of my all time favourites! please play more of this Kevin. also its worth noting that the houseboats on the island area caused lag if you demolish them you can probably turn the graphics back up

[@red-sg2wf]

i love that his back hair is perfectly shaved. makes it look like hes wearing a backless shirt

[@bearlycraftin]

Love seeing you play a game from my teenhood. BTW, TS3 has HUGE memory issues, but most of them can be solved, ironically, by disabling memories in the settings :) You can also get NRaas, which is the MC Command Center of Sims 3, and that can help clean up your town to prevent lag as well, though like MCCC, it can sometimes cause a bit of lag at 12-2A while it cleans. If you decide to play more, I hope that helps! :)

[@cult_of_ari]

Only 12 seconds into and Jesse Pinkman already has a cameo? This might be the CallMeKevin video of all time!

[@rain3339]

fr! its very video!

[@cult_of_ari]

@@rain3339 this is such an Upload!

[@brothercuh882]

I really wish the sims 2 series would come back in this way on sims 3

[@polikink12]

sims 3 getting the recognition it deserves

[@Gerewolf]

I couldn’t stop laughing at “You took extra food with you?!” 😅

[@shartboy666]

as someone who recently started replaying the sims 3, i can confirm that it is a mess

[@DizzyBusy]

It always makes me happy when Sims 4 players discover the zanyness of Sims 3. Wait until you get to the lores and the hidden traits!

[@anamariaapostol]

Now I want a full let's play of Sims 3

[@pedrostormrage]

6:47 "Help thinks Per-se-phone is being a bit creepy" Kevin needs to play Hades (granted, that is a weird spelling for the pronunciation "Per-seh-fuh-nee")

[@vlaicud]

Sims 3 is a great game and it goes really well with Kevin's chaos
