Gameplay and overview of the THIRTEENTH expansion pack to The Sims 4. This time it's all about fleshing out how sims interact and evolve over each life state. Treehouses to build, infants to parent, bikes to ride, milestones and quirks to unlock... Is it worth the $40 price tag? Let's see!

CAN'T WAIT for a Sims 4 pack dedicated to elders Sims 4 Dying Together 😻😻😻
😂
💀💀💀🤚🏻🤚🏻🤚🏻🤚🏻
😂😂😂
That would be cool if you could choose someone to take with you.🤣
@@maggiesays7827 Oooh can I pick Andrew Wilson?
Imagine if Growing Together, Parenthood, the Toddler/Kid Room/ Laundry Day pack content was all mixed together in one. That’s how Sims 4 packs should be.
Ahh, the ol' Sims 3 approach... I miss the days of more all-encompassing packs
Then add the others together like.. Vampires, werewolves, faries, mermaids 😢, then ... If they put together.. HSY , Discover University & MWS .. Or something like that😂
That would be awesome, but it would be soooo buggy
@@Kit438 it would make good arguments if the pack on sims 4 all are bug free. Evan small things like the bust the dust kit is broken in its mechanic that no one really enjoy and the only customization was either use the dirty mechanic or not.
@@Kit438 No, it wouldn't. More content doesn't mean buggy game. TS4 is already buggy AF. TS3 was buggy because it was buggy, not because it had more content in it.
Boy, I sure do love when EA splits one pack into 70 over the course of 9 years!
I will never get tired of your sims reviews. Thank you for still doing this
Thanks for still watching!
@@LGR we appreciate you, we understand the struggle of dropping 200+ on shit DLC for an empty game 🫡
@@LGR never stop
@@LGR When we start to hear more about project Rena, Lifebyyou and Paralives Id love to see a faceoff of the sim competitors from your perspective. With all of this stuff coming out its a pretty exciting time for long time simmers.
I can't explain why it's so fun watching you review sims content, but here I am years later lol.
For me I think it’s because he has TONS of fun and goofiness with his variations on Duke and all the different scenarios he does. While also being fair and balanced. Since the start he’s admitted he’s likes 4 and has liked it from the start, but he has always been clear about his balanced gripes and disappointments with its downgrades from the past ones in the series. But doesn’t dominate the reviews with those gripes. Brings em up but still seems to legitimately enjoy 😊
I don’t play The Sims 4 and never plan on buying it, but I still love LGR’s reviews of the packs.
@@vidcas1711 it’s F2P on steam and other platforms as of this past October! Only the expansions still cost money! No pressure of course, but now you don’t have to worry about spending money and disliking it. Now you can try whenever you’d like 😊
@@Gredran Yah har ahohy and avast!
I think it's his passion. You can tell how much he loves the franchise
LGR Reviews are probably the most unbiased Sims reviews, no Game Changers affiliation, no everyday play influencing the review, just pure facts. I love all of LGR, came for the Sims, stayed for retro tech.
Could you elaborate on what you mean by everyday play influencing the review? It seems to me that people who play the game every day would be the ones most interested in how it affects thair gameplay.
@@smellincoffee rose tinted glasses too. Someone who plays that much is more likely, for example, to see a minor tweak as being a huge game changer. While the general audience might not notice or care. LGR instead just plainly looks at the content to see if it's worth forty bucks.
I’ve been seeing the girlies have affiliate codes that solely benefit them. Not even a discount lol just use my code so I can get money.
@@TCO_404 LGR also, as he said himself, has long been tired of the game and it's expansions. So he _is_ biased, negatively towards the game.
Yeah, for some reason folks seem to think having positive feelings about the game is biased, but negative feelings about it are unbiased. When really reviews are always “biased” as they are subjective to the feelings/thoughts of the reviewer. It doesn’t mean that the reviews won’t have facts in them to help support their thoughts/feelings. But it’s still an opinion at the end of the day. 🤷🏾♀️

The daycare profession is what I miss the most! I loved it in the Sims 3
i think there is a mod for the daycare
Itskatato tumbling tots is an active carer mod that was adopted and works
I don’t remember when it started but I always love the running joke of LGR counting the number of chairs
same here and its funny when other sim KZheadrs mention him when there talking about new chairs in the game
I remember him every time I take notice of a new chair. xD
I believe it started with the Sims 3 Seasons Ignorant Review!!! "I swear the chairs are the most important aspect of the game. Why would it come with so many of them if it wasn't?! I mean, really, how many kinds of people can you make, like what? One? I really don't even know why they didn't call it the Chairs 3 because that makes so much more sense" - 1:30 (It's unlisted now but in the Sims 3 reviews playlist) I remember distinctly that this was it, and surely enough, in the Supernatural review, there's no line up, but in the Seasons review after the Ignorant one, the line up is there!!!
I miss Ralph tho. R.I.P.

i love watching the LGR vintage computing fans get completely switched with the LGR sims content fans. why provide one set of niche content when you can provide two
I watch the Sims videos for my own information/entertainment, and the vintage computing videos to fall asleep to
Some of us are here for both!
@@The8bitbeard Seconded! I've been playing The Sims since the very first game (and have been a gamer since the Atari 2600/ZX Spectrum days), so I can assure you, Mr. Vardo, that both niches are far from being mutually exclusive. :)
@@KittyMeow1984 I'm in the same boat as you although a fair bit younger given my gaming started on a Cyrix 6x86 based PC and PS1 lol
I watch both even though I probably haven't played any Sims game in a year or more
Man, it's crazy seeing a game get some refining, while at the same time, seeing absolutely nothing really get refined.
This pack would be appreciated in 2015/2016.
@@f.miller801 I feel like that's the sentiment for a number of these packs.
It's such an emotionally confusing experience when I see features I really like in the new expansions. At once, my brain says, "Wow, that sounds cool, I wanna try that" but also "THIS IS SEVERAL YEARS AND HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TOO LATE, YOU ABSOLUTE CABBAGES"
plus it's $40 for stuff that should just be in the game to begin with it really is sad how the company went from making packs in Sims 3 so that players could customize their experience in fun ways to packs/kits/extras in Sims 4 that are clearly just cash grabs
Oh man I'm with Clint, the Sims 4 is only still around because it has no direct competition, I hope Paralives and Life by You will shake things up for the scene much in the way that Cities Skylines did for city builders. If nothing else, it'll force EA to actually put in an effort as they're unlikely to shelve the Sims and its incredible profitability as they did with Simcity.
Totally agreed. I'm waiting Life by You eagerly. Hopefully EA would get its head out from its arse and start to take things more seriously.
Absolutely, the only reason Sims 2 & 3 were great was because of *stiff* competetion from Singles: Flirt Up Your Life 😏
"Life by You" is the Paradox Interactive one, right?
@@CoffeeFurret Yes.
Early access on Life by you begins in September too. 6 months away.
When I was 11, I showed my mom your review of s3 generations to convince her that I NEEDED that pack! I’ll be 22 this year, and I feel like there’s some joke to be made about adulthood and half-assed expansion packs.
Awe same age
I was 15 when I pirated the entire S3 with generation pack back in my homeland with my friend… what a time and holy Fock I’m 27 now… this is interesting how downgraded sims had became since those times, there could be such an amazing progression but it is only business wise…
i was like 9 when i found out about lgr im 19 now lmaooo
What a bad parents to letting an underage kid playing sims... It's clearly contain some sexual stuff, nudity, and stuff like that
@@DBT1007 there is nothing overtly sexual on the sims. They even censoring things that don't need to be censored like toilet since sim don't even bother to undo their bottom clothing. When there is nudity, it was censored. Not even woohoo is done in nude in most ocassion. When they do, like in shower, you dont even see anything. Besides it's clear the target is preteen and teen so if by that time you don't understand basic sex, i find it hardly implausible you learn about lovemaking by witnessing sims woohoo. Last part, even if you think that the sims is pretty liberal with sex, you can't actually just ask for wohoo without making the other one your more friendly. So yeah, even in game they teach you to be responsible and ask for a kind of consent first.
"I am sorry father, I can't form memories because you failed to pay for that expansion"
I just got out the hospital feeling like crap and in pain but I can’t tell how much this brightened my day LGR! Thank you!!!
Glad that it helped in any way at all, and I hope you’re on the mend soon!
I love how it’s basically tradition to review Sims DLC on this channel
Always has been. 🔫
will not watch it anywhere else haha
He only reviews the big expansions now. Sims 4 has more than $1000 of DLC and the game still sucks if you own it all.
@@mr.cuddlesworth3144 I have to fully agree with you there
This is the way.
It’s giving parenthood deluxe edition more than a “generation” expansion
Yep. Should have been one pack.
Doesn't add much for teens, for example.
@@Schaemiaat this point high-school years is like parent hood where they will just do another pay wall for teens to have better gameplay
I think Parenthood, Growing Together, Toddler Stuff and Kids Room would have been the ultimate Generations -esque pack.
@@sweethistortea and they're still missing elder Sims activities
This is exactly why I watch you! No other person I’ve watched stated anything about new personality traits, gaining and swapping them. I had no clue that the infants weren’t going to be the same unless you have the EP. I thought the only different thing would be storyline/gameplay. No other goes into detail as well as you dooo and this is why I love your channel❤
Thanks, I’m glad this proved useful!
I do recommend lilsimsie if you want to see reviews of the new packs in more detail :) She's also very fun
Everyone has definitely been too biased
@@mathildasjogren2039 i personally cant stand her XD. Something about her makes me wanna throw up.

Crazy how I've been watching these sims reviews since the fifth grade and now I'm halfway through college. Even crazier is how TS4 is still alive and kicking, like what?
Maxis and EA Game should really move on but nope, they had to get all they can from a pretty bare bones game
lmao same, halfway thru college too 😂
Lol same, though I started with his sims 3 reviews and I’m in my last year of college
oh, it's kicking against its own coffin, I hope
I think it would be fully in-character for EA to release this now, and then announce Sims 5 at E3 that dials everything back to the base game.
They already announced The Sims 5. It's a few years out though
@@samanthanorton4538 Or whatever _Project Rene_ ends up being called. I'm still not convinced it'll be "The Sims 5," my money is on a soft reboot of the franchise.
always online microtransaction heavy i can see it now.
@@LGR My guess is it will be a soft reboot like you say but as something closer to a live service style game - New expansions, etc will instead be free updates and the main revenue stream will be people paying the upfront cost of buying the game alongside a storefront selling new content for the game ala The Sims 3's store. More than likely the updates will have a relative lack of content to make use of the new features with the idea being that you instead buy that content on the storefront, although I have little doubt the community will step in so you can easily just wait a month or two and get a load of modder-made content for free instead. The whole expansion thing as EAxis does it currently is a bit of a weakness with the competition coming out to be honest, assuming Paradox does a Cities Skylines-style DLC release schedule for their game then I can see an approach like I've theorised above actually giving EAxis a leg up.
@@terryberry38 Specifically, the gurus have said it's _"the next generation Sims game and creative platform.”_ Read their wording carefully :) They specifically have not said "The Sims 5" or anything like that. The team has been quite careful, yet vague, in all of their descriptions and phrasing. It will almost certainly be the fifth mainline Sims game, but I just don't know that it will be specifically be called The Sims 5. I personally feel they may go for a soft reboot of the series to start "fresh" and not have the baggage of being a sequel, exactly. I can see them calling it "Sims" or even "The Sims" again, theoretically resetting the stage and introducing a new online-focused simming platform for content to be added to over the next decade or so. It certainly falls in line with the current trends of game design and monetization, both at EA and other big publishers. They've also described how a big focus of Project Rene is to allow other players online to drop in and out of your game at will, and that you go from playing on your PC to playing on a phone seamlessly. So while I'm admittedly reading between the lines, it kinda feels more like a reboot/refresh of the series rather than a straight-up sequel to The Sims 4.
How many years has it been of LGR reviewing Sims stuff? It is amazing that he continues to do them and still being as entertaining, just, kudos to you man, you are one of a kind.
Wait... They actually locked the personalities for the infants behind a paywall? What the f- That's like if they added dogs in an update and then made you pay so that they could play fetch and bark. Wow.
😂😂😂😂 omg this comment was hilarious
Clint is the only one whose Sims review I take seriously. I never feel like he's been bought out.
I've felt the same way. I did find another guy on here named rekowcski who's on a similar track, he's just a little more... blunt about the lack of positive comparison between TS4 and previous games.
@@tegandetermann3299 there's other simmers that I enjoy but for some reason their reviews I just can't trust. Is that weird?
@@thechandraraj6415 Not at all. Particularly with the smaller more positive channels. "Game Changer" status is always a potential that could unintentionally influence what the say in a review, even if you like their video style. At least, that's how I feelm
@@tegandetermann3299 i trust game changers opinion on sims packs about 3 weeks later, especially Plumbella, her first video on a pack is always positive, but as time goes on the more videos she releases, she gets more and more honest, by then she's ripping EA a new one for all the shit they do
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Clint actually did have some sort of partnership with EA for a while related to his Sims videos, but then they actually dropped him for not kissing their ass.
For having been around in 23 years, I am amazed how little progress The Sims have made. I mean progress have been made but...
The most progress was made in Sims 2 and 3. It’s just sad this shell of a game is still going like this.
Could say the same for gaming as a whole. Feel like weve been on the same gen since 2012
why make new thing when current thing prints money
I'm more amazed how people are hyping this and not more upset about a pay wall for gameplay that was free in base games in last two games
Sims 2 and 3 were both noticeable progressions over their predecessor. Sims 4 was a regression.
you're the only youtuber i trust when it comes to the sims. the only one. i think i've been watching you since 2009ish. the other's cannot be trusted, and no can convince me that they have, nor ever will, give an *honest* review. sadly, i've moved on from this 4th sims generation, but i still love *the sims* franchise. i'm stoked to see this, even if i don't have the game ❤ thanks for doing this 😊

Ugh, Paralives and Life by you can't come soon enough. Thanks for the quality review as always.
I was addicted to sims back in the day. My dad randomly got me Busting Out. I spent months at it every second I could, had a great job and a huge house, living the ultimate bachelor life. Then I put the rug too close to the fire and died in a house fire. I couldn’t bare to begin again.
Omg I spent months on a family and then the child glitched and removed itself from the world and I couldn’t bare to restart
My aunt loved the sims (can’t remember if 2 or 3), had one save file that was multi generations in… until my uncle deleted the sims from her computer. Can’t remember the reason now, think to free up the storage? She hasn’t played since

@@DiscoTimelordASD Like Sims 3 but with quests/storylines. You play different heroes (monarch, bard, physician, etc) with different daily responsibilities and expand the world every time you finish a quest. The writing is fantastic, very funny and very detailed! Clearly a lot of care put into the world and the storyline 🙌
Man. I was hoping we'll get the Daycare profession again. It was fun turning your home into a daycare back in Generations.
thank you for being incredibly transparent with your reviews. It is insane how much stuff the sims community should be putting into base game (social systems, mid life crisis, CHANGING TABLES….) but somehow continues to be forced behind a $40 paywall. Dine out still can’t work unless you use a mod. The Sims 4 really is the biggest disappointment of the Sims franchise.
The family dynamics should be in the base game tbh
Most of it should. I'll give example of CiV V, they had Religion and Trade Route on two separate expansion. When civ vi rolled out, they were integrated to base game since the devs is not as crazy as sims dev to sell the same thing twice, just in differrent graphic.
I can't picture anything Sims anymore without hearing LGR's voice. ☺
Him and Juno Birch for me.😆
I mostly picture the sims with Graystillplays.
I love how you can hear the disappointment in his voice from the very start lol. He used to be so chipper when reviewing the older sims games
Love when you do these succinct evaluations of stuff like this! Your simulation videos are the best! Great video!
I love the idea of a sim leaving behind a pill bottle and apple for their family to stew over after they die.
I'm able to play Sims 4 vicariously through you, Clint. You're saving me a ton of time and making it easy to see what Duke Nukem does in his off-time.
So far we learned that his wife is Karyn Nukem, and their kids are Anessa Nukem and Nukem Nukem. We even got Fartwhistle Dinglehop back from LGR's let's plays of Sims 4 years back. Great he's still going around.

You are quite literally "Growing Together" 😜
I’m glad you decided to do another sims review. I absolutely love your videos. Been watching your sims reviews for years - I’ve watched every single one haha
LGR I’ve been watching you since I was in middle school trying to learn everything I could about the sims 3 and dreaming of buying the packs for myself…you have not changed since then, you always provide honest, charismatic, and fun reviews and I just wanna thank you for that! 👏🏾
I hope you'll continue the tradition of counting how many chairs there are when Life By You comes out.
Hehe, yeah I'll probably have to
It's good to see people actually playing Sims, unlike me who is perpetually stuck in build mode.
Oh same. They nailed build mode in TS4, but I cannot bring myself to actually play. The itch is scratched by TS2 and 3 where I can build and l play!
Sims 4 just a building/interior design sim at this point. I have a feeling sims 5 will be ever more like that as well sadly.
I'm so happy you made a video. I've been missing the Sims content.
you make it quick and honest. Huge Respect!!
I have never clicked a thumbnail so fast! Thank you LGR for your service. Also jumping on the bandwagon of asking your thoughts on Life By You and Paralives

This wasn't in-depth, if anything I appreciate LGR's short, concise and honest reviews
@@OnionTheBat To each their own. My definition of “in-depth” is explaining the positives and negatives and giving reasoning for both. It’s likely different for yourself and others, which is also fine.
LGR I appreciate you and your reviews after all of these years. Still my favorite to watch when new games come out
Happy to hear it :)
These sorts of things are really must have Expansion Packs. It actually changes gameplay in many ways on a core level because of the way traits are aquired and changed and the relationships system. Plus it's just cute. I honestly think this one's worth the price, which is very rare in Sims 4.
Seeing Duke Nukem in a cardigan sweater suffering a mid-life crisis almost feels validating in a weird way. Not that I'd ever be caught dead in a cardigan sweater....
You have NO idea how much I love your reviews and how fast I clicked the notification! Good to hear from you Clint ❤
Thanks for watching, I’m glad they still manage to excite :)
I can't describe how happy I am to see more LGR Sims reviews. I've been watching for over a decade! They are always superbly entertaining 🤩 Do you plan to cover Life By You? Literally one of my first thoughts when I saw the trailer was, "Ooh, I hope this brings LGR back to the life sim reviews."
watching Clint's Sims 4 Pack/Expansion/Content Update Reviews are like some kind of weird therapy I just start thinking about how fast time goes by and different stages of my life companied by different versions of the Sims and different amounts of fun I had depending on all sorts of things and Clint as my therapist understands it all and always listens
Can't wait to see you cover Life By You. That game actually looks good unlike Sims 4 and its $40 Game Packs.
I mean, Life By You doesn't look like much for now. People are excited to try an alternative to the Sims and that's understandable, but we just don't know much about it.
@@Ezullof They did show off stuff a bit ago. Already better than Sims 4 base game. Open world, active careers, switching people on the fly with no loading screens, dynamic and readable conversations. In game tools to make new content like mods, lots, conversations, careers, etc. There are cars, bikes, motorcycles, and skateboards. Swimming in the ocean and a beach. The thing is built for modders and modding. I'd say they so far have proven their worth. More so than The Sims 4 Growing Together which is indeed a $40 Game Pack/Paid Free Update.
@@Ezullof What does everyone think of Paralives?
Hope they allow extensive graphics mods, that game looks real uncanny valley
It's also definitely going to have it's own DLC when it comes out, but it does look cool if quite different from The Sims.
The thing that got me the most excited about this new pack/update is that social interactions are now grouped by subcategories. Like, if I want my Sim to hug someone, I don't have to click through like 6-7 pages of friendly interactions anymore; now it's just Friendly > Affection > Hug.
Does back carrier come with this expansion?
@@SuperfreakXoXo Yes, but mind you, it's neither a CAS wearable nor a Build Mode object; it works similar to umbrellas, in that you select and use them through options while in Live Mode. To select which back carrier you want your Sim to wear, click on your infant, then select "Baby Care > Set Preferred Back Carrier". Then, to use the back carrier, click on your infant, then select "Baby Care > Put [Infant's name] in Back Carrier".
@@KittyMeow1984 Oh dang... sad I don't have that expansion :( but thanks!! now I know it's not included in the free update..
@@SuperfreakXoXo Yeah, the free update is *very* barebones... it just adds a basic bed for infants, and that's it. It's almost like the inclusion of infants in the base game is just a demo to enntice you into buying the Growing Together expansion, because without it there's pretty much nothing you can do with your infant Sims. :(
The only review I trust 100%. Thanks for the overview! Nobody else has seemed to mention the trait discovery feature and I was (pleasantly) surprised when I found it on my own. Unfortunately they almost never give us new traits.
In Aus an expansion pack is $50. My brother saw the price and gasped “how many of these have you bought?!?” And ngl that scared me a little 😳
I haven’t been on my game for a while. $50? Damn, Origin really are screwing us Aussies over
Same in Canada 😢
i swear i’ve been watching your reviews since middle school & now i’m a full grown adult with a job. Glad to come back each time, though! Keep it up LGR!
Can't wait to hear your thoughts on some other upcoming life sims! The sims is in dire need of a proper competitor, and I'd love to see one of them really take off.
I love LGRs sims reviews, thanks for blessing us with this!! the deadpan humor & chair reviews are the best 👌
I just wanted to say, I've been watching these reviews for years. You are my go-to. Thank you for all the honesty and laughs ❤😊
Hey LGR, have you seen that there is a pixel-styled life sim coming out soon? its called Tiny Life, and is made in the spirit of the Sims 1. Would highly recommend checking that one out!!
lgr reviews are the only reason i get excited for new sims packs
I no longer play sims but still watch your reviews 😅
same, its tradition for me.
I'm so disillusioned with EA's stripping back of each new sims game to re-sell what they should have included from the release of the game. Especially with them giving us piece meal stuff packs and expansions that shouldn't be broken up.
I haven't played The Sims 4 for years, but I always enjoy LGR's The Sims' reviews. I'm looking forward to your reviews of Paralives and Life By You!
Ah brilliant! Another LGR Sims pack review to add to my monthly playlist. I don't know why your content is so satisfying to listen to, but it just is, even if I know what's in it. And of course it's a 100% _necessary_ re-watch when I'm looking for packs to buy. Everything said is there for a reason, it all helps understand the pack and its place in the game, it's perfect.
your videos, reviews, any type of content, are the freaking best of youtube! thank you for still being around after so many years
Thanks for continuing to watch!
I really like your particular narrative style of describing the sims packs. I always watch your videos before I buy a pack.
I have been waiting for this review and I'm not disappointed by the honesty. The social interactions and milestones should have been a free base game update. This pack is also not as fleshed out as Generations, but that's what I've come to expect with TS4. I'll purchase this expansion on sale for Black Friday and be happy with the content when it costs only $20 instead of $40.
The term "helicopter parent" just got a new definition.
Haven't watched a review on your channel in a bit, but here I am! Love the upgraded intro!
I just got super excited seeing this in my recommended 😍 i honestly didn’t think you’d review it.
Yes! So glad you decided to review this pack
I have been waiting for them to bring imaginary friends into TS4. It was honestly one of my favorite things about TS3. Thanks for the video!
Yes! I always played with them, though they were really creepy 😅
that comment sounds depressing
with how much heavy lifting the player has to do to make things actually happen in this game, all sims count as imaginary friends i think
LGR i used to watch your sims 3 reviews when i was younger and i just met you again! you are such a nostalgic voice to me i love watching you
Always love your reviews, such in depth information! I also loved the editing in this one, felt really fun and spontaneous. Keep it up LGR
Every time I get notifications from your Sims uploads, I know I’m in for a treat, regardless if the pack is trash or not.
What’s cool about LGR is how many people I’ve met in life that have completely different interests from one another, yet they all have watched your content for years. Thank you for another detailed and honest review dude 🙏🏻
You make a good point about the lack of competition, in fact you made a lot of good points. Loved the food analogy at the end haha. I didn't know about Life by You until you mentioned it. I'm so ready for a fresh life simulation! You're my go to for sims related reviews. Cheers for another great one
Crazy how I've been watching these reviews for 10 years, please never stop making these
I’ve been coming to you for every pack review since TS3. Thank you for what you do
Thanks for continuing to watch, glad you’ve stuck around!
Never felt the need to move on from the Sims 3, but I still love to see every new LGR Sims 4 review that comes out... Even all these years into it. I hadn't heard of Paralives and Life by You before, so I just checked them out on Steam--Definitely promising to see some fresh ideas for this style of game! I'm playing "Generations" IRL for the first time in my life right now though, but maybe when my little one is a bit older, we'll be able to enjoy some Sims / Sims-style gaming again together.
you're my favorite sim reviewer. The only one who's real and sassy about it. Been watching it for years. Love it
I always look forward to a LGR Sims Review and you didn't let me down, this was a great honest review of the pack 😁😁
Love your reviews! Seeing yours compared to the EA content creators is such a big difference. I love your honesty and bluntness
Everytime i see a sims4 pack vid it makes me want to play sims 3
Love these glad you are still doing them! You confirmed for me what I thought. I'm so ready for something new now EPs don't cut it!
I'm so glad you still do Sims reviews! I trust your reviews with my life fr.
