I think this is the funniest video on YouTube I’ve seen in a while
me: "never seen this guy before but ill watch the video"
him: 30:37
me: "well he shouted out callmekevin i gotta subscribe"
Should have named Kanye Ambiguous "Narcissus"
I wish I could play this on my computer 😭
The sims.. before they became a product of EA and were still Maxis baby, were great and epic games. The Sims 3 was THE BEST sims you can get.
I love the The Sims 4, for the better building options than The Sims 3 — BUT, The Sims 3 is completely OPEN WORLD and has so much content even in the base game AND you even have seasons with expansion, AND your sims can take a horse instead of a car to go to work AND you can visit the future and change it AND you can go on vacation and collect stupid collectibles—-
It's great, its the BEST sims I ever played.
BUT, The Sims 4 has some quality of life things that Sims 3 doesn't have, Sims 3 also suffers from god awful AI design of the 2000-2010s era. The sims 4 also makes sims a little faster while oding tasks and in some cases they can multitask AND their sims models are much better and the graphics are much better.
However if you are looking for customization and more open lots than just being stuck to one lot, The Sims 3 is the best thing you can get, ever.
There's also gazillion mods for the sims 3 and 4 that add clothes, cars, families, lots, etc etc.
Just make sure you install The sims 3 on SSD, preferably on M.2, otherwise you're gonna have a bad time loading eveyrthing in 🙂
EDIT: I MEAN GOD, you can even own a STUPID SHOP in sims 3, A RESTAURANT, you can do– SO MUCH in that game, it's just— I gotta replay it
So you can’t survive on art alone
i was watching you thinking you were martincitopants
"Keeping up with the Johnsons. "
My Johnson is always up.
technically not the sime 1 but i own the definitive edition of sims 2 on ea app(???), i think ill play it again
i llove the sims 1
i actually have an original sims disk, which is genuinely surprising.
I had an idea for a money challenge that could be entertaining. You're not allowed to make any money except through the phone. You start with nothing but an end table and a landline phone. If a burglar comes and steals the phone, then gg.
THis game is so fucking easy. It's hilarious playing it as an adult cos you can get a perfect sim and be rich in like an hour. The game just THROWS money at you,, especially through the phone cos often you get one call a day that gives you at least 200 simoleons. So let's see if you can actually surivive and thrive on only phone handouts..
woah that sim city vintage soundtrack
50:56 Man, that hit me with a tidal wave of nostalgia. So many hours spent making and selling those stupid gnomes because it was crazy money. You didn't even have to work anymore, just making gnomes nonstop…
I think Will Wright would be proud with the project that began as a guy wetting himself on the floor would eventually bear such existential crises
Normally I disagree with creators re-uploading their content for a mega video. I think it as a lazy cop out, but I see the edits you've done and how it is a story. Thank you!
"Unfortunately, we had nothing in common, but she was just very available. There hadn't been any time in my career to make friends either, let alone relationships so I was also bitter and old and angry." Uncannily relatable.
NEXT A SIMS 2 AND 3 AND UHHH 4 COMPLATION!!!
brian is more of a cynic than a stoic. poverty, rejecting social norm and living in a "beastial" state.
Very
pushmeat is a crazy name
I’ve only played The Sims4 and it sucks in comparison
Excellent video. I cackled all the way through. Love seeing people still playing the original sims. <3
59:57 yes, yes they are.
Oh god that price…
ambiguousamphibian, You're amazing! Let's be friends and hang out!
Physical discs, oh man! The good old days when the games we bought belonged to us..
How?! How did you get to play this game?!
I want it. I need it. Where do I download it?! Or does it need to be on a disc?
thank u bro, ur the sims 2 video came up on my home page and made me want to play the sims 4. just then i realized my account has been hacked recently. If not for you i wouldnt know and i contacted support today, so hopefully i get it back. thanks man
you're saying the idioms incorrectly on purpose right?
Fun fact the cheapest couch for some reason after a few days you can sell it for more than you buy it
Gotta make time for this
I would just go to other households in the neighborhood for them to better their friendship with me. Of course, that would take away some of the drama here in your streaming and later story telling haha
It really was impossible to maintain 8 relationships on top of everything else in the Sims 1. I love it so much though.
Orangatan, not Orangatang
I’m loving these compilations
That 'Zero Dollar Start' reminds me of something I used to do in the Ps2 version of Sims 2.
Make a scraggly character, build a 3×3, broken shack with naught but a moldy couch dragged in off the street, then run the money out buying dirt and gravel ground tiles.
He'd spend his days sitting on the couch, waiting for his entry level job and struggling to fill motives until he could finally, finally afford music player or drag a urinal in from…somewhere. Eventually, the menial labor nets him enough to fix the shack's broken windows, buy a plank of wood to use as a door, and even afford a small table. As this was the Ps2 version, his food needs were usually met by eating the couch stuffing, so he was at least okay on that front.
He worked as a painter, so was later able to sneak paint supplies from work to paint the walls at least a little.
