the scientist career is so fitting for a sim who collects occults haha and also it's kinda adorable he brings them to work
emotional support occults
So true. Semaj needs some crazy scars on his face or something so he can better look the part. He looks way too normal at this point
@@amk3721If he gets them - awesome detail (though did he even go through hardships getting them?) If he doesn't - delicious contrast 😂
I LOVE playing the scientist career and bringing family with me. I add a daycare for my toddlers and an office for my partner to work on writing or whatever.
@@amk3721 especially considering what he’s been through for all these years
Okay, but Caleb calling Vlad on a date is some TEA, aren't their families supposed to hate each other? 🤣
And the date spot sounded so fitting, too! Really funny!
Ikr! I never get invited on a date without any romance 😂
The story is that Vlad turned the Vatore siblings, and they resent him for it because of their "culinary differences" (made more tragic because Caleb is a foodie and now can't eat). Funny because it's out of character. As for why: the game randomly picks sims your sim knows to ask them on a date. As long as the other sim isn't a "played sim".
In the lore Vlad turned Mrs. Hell and Lilith, but Mrs. Hell turned Caleb
Missed opportunity right there
Vlad's mausoleum and the new mermaid entrance are so freaking cool!
Yeah, and I can't wait to see the witches tower
When I first saw the mausoleum I thought it was a CC object! It looks amazing!
Snodgrass HAS to have a wizard tower! It's perfectly cliche. And maybe have her do the Medium skill stuff?
Yes, witches tower and give her a broom. She can also do a lot of the gardening as well. Garden should probably be a greenhouse
I do love greenhouses!
The medium skill would be fitting!
Yesssssss 💯💯💯
Meadium skill is a great idea! But I think she also need a makover for sure
James, there's a trick for befriending Greg. Get the radio that you can place in your inventory (it's the one you can buy from the computer under gifts). Place it on the lawn outside his trailer, and turn on pop music. Greg likes pop music, he will have a playful mood when he's near it instead of enraged. It works really well until it rains.
Oooh, interesting idea!
i love this. taming the biggest baddest wolf with a little taylor swift
The alien definitly needs a floating round ufo room, maaaaybe with a ladder lol. I really like this challenge and its hectic chaotic sims stuff happening all around.
You could use the spellcaster gateways from debug to make teleporters to the UFO!
With a light beaming down!
Yeah an alien ship thats been poorly disguised as a water tower!
@@friendlyxfire6783 I was going to suggest crashed into the side of the house but honestly I like this idea better!! Very cool idea
“Its raining we don’t need the umbrella” vampire problems 😂
Yesss came here to say this 😂
Here's my imagined context for this let's play: Semaj, our protagonist, is bouncing around, unsure of what to do with his life. He knows he wants to help people, so it's off to Sulani to try out island conservation. While there he meets Nalani and instantly falls in love, but while pursing her he starts to hear things about sims who are 'different'. He starts asking questions, and when he finally earns her trust Nalani let's him in on the secret. Not only mermaids, but all the 'creatures' you thought were just fantasy are real, if you know where to look. She had to lie, because it's not just about her. It's too dangerous for them to live openly among normal sims. So Semaj immediately starts reading all the books he can find about the occult in order to be a supportive boyfriend, only all the books are about vampires. After finishing them he's like "hey, that sounds like that guy Vlad that I know. I wonder if he's lonely living forever. I wonder if he wishes he had 18 adopted children in another life." So he goes to fetch Vlad like "why not come hang out with us for a while? You don't have to live alone in this creepy mansion." It's then that Semaj realizes, this is what he wants to do with his life. He wants to make a community for occult sims. So he spontaneously proposes (hehe) his plan to Nalani "be my wife~ and let's start a family, a beautiful occult family." (Meanwhile Lily is watching like .. should I tell him he lives in werewolf town?) Hilarity and adventures then ensue as Semaj tries to manage and coordinate different occults and their needs while not being one himself Tl;dr - empathetic Semaj and found family
Love your storytelling 😍😍😍💙
Love this ❤❤❤
Thirding this that I love the storytelling! Hope James sees your comment 😊
The haunted house totally makes sense. You know, with Vlad bringing a small band of dead bodies with him and starting a mini graveyard.
I love that
He started a graveyard because he likes the aesthetic, without realising the hassle he'd create for his roomies. I totally believe it.
You should consider cutting the plumbite on a shape on the crystal table, so you can put it around your sims and all of their needs will fill up simultaneously...
The Avant-garde on the pipe organ is pretty bad, but I kind of like the other ones. You could add a door and lock it for everyone but Vlad and then he'll fly in. I think Ms. Snodgrass should do the Medium skill and summon Bonehilda, since Spellcasters learn that skill faster.
Yes!!
I mean... Avant Garde is supposed to be that way. It's... avant garde. 🤣
You should get Frugal to lower bills and for the spell caster room you should make it greenhouse off the side of the main house and put all the plants in there with her!
And carefree to avoid getting tense (which results in burnouts!) 😊😊
I was just thinking about mentioning an arboretum or treehouse kinda thing! It would fit so well with alchemist circles on the ground like in the magic realm. Also all the crystals and the crystal making table would fit well too imo :D
And free services so Vlad can have fresh prey. Oh, sorry, I meant so the house is not a mess
I absolutely adore the idea of a brother sister dynamic between vlad and nalani. That little bit was adorable.
they have negative relationship tho
When was that?
@@andriana5311 Probably when they danced together and the Vlad proceeded to feed on the scientist who was perving on her in the bathroom while she showered lol
@hfjireh that makes the sibling dynamic more accurate
I can't explain it, but describing this build as an "Occult theme park" sparked joy and made me love it more. 😂
I LOVE that you use the money to build them a nice room to live in when they join the family. it's so nice to see fun builds like this!
Maybe Vlad can pay his fair share of the bills LOL
Y
I love it too!!
For the spell caster, you could change that top room. It used to be the human sims bedroom, but now he sleeps in the grotto with nalani.
The juxtaposition of James’s chaotic every occult challenge to Deli’s calm and wholesome tiny town challenge is truly everything I needed in my life
48:55 ‘I think me just being at work is causing to butn out’ … relatable stuff right there 😅😅
As is being burnt out in one's sleep 😅
Sixam mosquito trap is a play on Venus fly trap lol 😂 that plant ain’t got nothing to do with aliens
Came here to say this 😂 Thank you
how have i never realised this? 😭
And useless too, doesn't even stop pests from nearby plants, let alone mosquitoes
You get blood from it. Besides plasma fruit you used to get blood from that mosquito plant
I love how James rewatched the Get Together LP, reminded himself how useful clubs can be so now he is making clubs left and right
YES to be fair I think a lot of Simmers kind of overlooked Clubs for years which gave Get Together a bad rap as being "useless" outside of the world and build/buy.
@@j.stanley1669well I mean James always thought they were useful he’s just bad at remembering things. If I had a nickel for everyone club he made in a LP I’d at least have a half a dollars worth of nickels
@@persephonethereaper6938 True he's definitely used them more often than any other Simmer I think I've watched (which isn't a lot of them but still.)
Lilsimsie always makes clubs for her Sims to find friends or dates.
Also the use of the tent is a throwback to that rags to riches LP
I think each member should contribute in paying the bills. It depends on the member how to earn the money. Like Vlad could easily take money from his vault, Nalani could sell stuff or something. But I think this will add more stress to James 😅
Having them sell their own nector could be fun
I agree they should help with the bills.
Vlad can contribute his wages as a babysitter. 😂
@@nad_bell_Yes that was hilarious 😂😂
@tnhowes09 Yas! Maybe Vlad should focus on Nectar Making since he has plenty of space to age it in his crypt and he's rich. He's also immortal so it'd make sense he'd choose a long process method lol and then babysitting on the side. I bet he's babysitting the Vatore toddler since he met them.
Thinking of this household as a group of mutant superheroes makes it even funnier lol. I love it. Semajers assemble
Caleb calling Vlad for a date is hilarous.
I love that James chose Avante-garde on the pipe organ then was confused as to why it sounded strange 😂 avante-garde music isn't always tonal!
Loving 'The Vlad Pad' James 👏This series is hilarious and I love it 😆
Hahaha Vlad Pad
Give your spellcaster sim a castle tower to live in. I live this series. I'm learning getting som many good gameplay ideas.
Can Vlad not do the vampire meditation thing for energy? I haven't played with vampires in a long time... XP
It’s been forever since I’ve played but I’m pretty sure he can but the option is kinda Burried in the menu
Yes he can 👌🏻
Exactly what I was shouting while watching this! Put him in a windowless room & have him do the Vampiric Meditation!!!
@@Noodle797 Why a windowless room though?
James for something to do when your Sim is at work. There is a chessboard upstairs in the staff area. Doesn't Vlad like chess?
What I learned from this is always wash your hands after using the toilet or you will get bit by a vampire and frozen by your co-worker
But should a vampire drink from someone who didn’t wash their hands? Hmm
I think it's hilarious that Vlad is a babysitter as his job. Did he come with that or did he choose that by himself?
didnt he call semaj and ask if he should change his job at some point in an earlier episode? incredible choice nonetheless
he chose it when semaj asked him to pursue his dream job lol
I love that Vlad’s dream job involves kids when in another LP he adopted so many!
It would be fun if Ms Snodgrass would get a "floating" room/tower that she can only access via broom, with like a landing spot right outside her door
the floating room would be perfect for the alien, kinda like an ufo
Woooo 2 minutes! Also.. the miniature environments give me Occult Zoo vibes 🤣🤣 building enclosures for all the occults
Pleeeeaseeeeee add some fairy lights in the mermaid cave! 🙏🙏🥺
Vlad can gain vampire energy by doing dark meditation!
Servo building tip- craft the gemstone that increases your needs and put it on the robotics station, then they can continuously craft stuff without having to take a break for their needs. I was able to build my servo quick!
I love a long episode, Lmao at James’s face when vlad was playing the organ😂
Vlad needs a cheap travel coffin in his inventory for sleeping while working.
If only that were possible.
a "sleeping bodybag"
Do vampires meditate?
@@lizburgess4398 Yes, they do have Dark Meditation which refills their power somewhat.
James the SIXAM fly trap plant is named llike the VENUS fly trap. Both "planet" names. It isn't from Sixam, it came with the vampire pack.
What if Vlad is the one who works on the summoning table...? He might get along reeeeall well with Bonehilda 😉
Having Vlad and Nalani follow Semaj to work is such a funny idea like you cutting to Vlad being on all the machines is gold
This was great! having the other sims help out would be good for getting the bills paid. people are suggesting jewelry selling, Vlad isn't very busy so it make sense he does it. Or you suggested selling all the metals and crystals you get from work, you could make more if you turned them into jewelry
It may be time to start up an occultist nectar making side hustle to pay the bills!
Vlad is really living out that "My Babysitter is a Vampire" life
Just a reminder that you can click on a vampire sim and, under the "vampire" options, have them "dark meditate" to restore vampire energy if they have anything less than full. Their vampire energy also doesn't go down while they're actively meditating, meaning it will make them immune to the sun for a few seconds. It's also way faster than sleeping/hibernating.
How come you don't just have Vlad do dark meditation to get his power recharged? Just curious... Love the different challenges you do!
i might be misrembering, but could that skill be unlocked via the skill tree and Vlad doesn't have it? Ooor james is forgetting a feature of this game again, which, fair. just to quote his recent members video "so sorry I cant remeber 70 packs wort of content" 😂
@@syndae no it's open for all vamps LOL James is just forgetting again. 🤣😂
I think Vlad should do crystal creations for money :)
Oh man your editing and graphic design is phenomenal! I feel like your creative passion and excitement is radiating through your work and I'm loving it
If the bills are so high, you should have each occult pay rent...the more occult the less rent, if you wanted Semaj to do it all himself...but if they come with money and store it in the vault....
I could be wrong, but I think the reason why you couldn't add the spell caster to your household was because it was a "holiday"- Talk Like a Pirate day. I don't think you can have Sims join your household during a holiday.
My thoughts exactly 👌🏻
That's one of the weirdest issues I've seen!! 🤯
I think you can get father winter to at least during winter fest
Maybe there's need for a bigger lot later on, also gives more terrain freedom
I'd love if your spellcaster had a beautiful floating tower either attached but looking impossible or just floating right next to the other tower, she should make potions and learn copy pasto, and repairio, vlad should take up painting, or i suppose he could write tunes/dongs on the organ, but tgats really a slow way to get money 😮and gemology, Nalani has her robotics and simage has gardening and science, although it seems he might need a creative skill as well (to help prevent burnout). It seems everyone needs to work on nectar making. All that nectar they make while they're skilling up can be perfected and copy pastod by the spell caster. This js such a fun goofy challenge.
There is a crystal that helps with burnout but also crystals could be a potential money maker to help pay the bills
I like the tower idea for the spellcaster.. also for the plants, a small greenhouse with an outside garden bit as well for patchy would be fun and either a small room underneath or to the side for the nectar maker and the bar =) love the new entrance for the grotto!
At level 4, Vampires, Werewolves, and Spellcasters can make their own type of nectar. Plasma Nectar (Vampires) = 3 Plasma Fruit Valerian Nectar (Spellcasters) = 3 Valerian Root Moonpetal Nectar (Werewolves) = 3 Moonpetal
Cool but why no mermaid one?
Wolfsbane also grows in Moonwood Mill! And vampires can do a dark meditation to recharge their vampire energy
Spellcasters learn the Meium skill more quickly so that could be her task, to get Bonehilda but if Semaj must be involved for ot to count. Just have him join her in the seance. I also say have someone do gemology to take advantage of all the crystal boosts.
the club name should have been A Cult.... you know Occult
I love these videos. The long ones are my favorite, and I don't mind watching the grind of these careers and skills.
Yes! James makes even the grind funny to watch! 👌🏻😍
Wizzard Tower!!
This is my consistent, comfort channel. Much love from Canada!!
the spellcaster should def get an ivory tower to contrast with vlaad's mausoleum.
“So I just got home from collecting souls and all of the sudden I was at some dudes house.” -Grim, probably
Why does everyone always forget Patchy has to be placed NEAR the plants to come to life?? 😂
pls i didnt even know about this
Actually? I’ve never known that was a thing
While you're on the Science lot, you can get Vlad to build *their* rocket and use that to travel to Sixam.
That is a top-genius suggestion!!
Be careful Patchy always seems to end up sleeping with my sims spouses.
I'm always so happy to see James Turner post a new video! I'm definitely loving this awesome series of every occult! Thanks always for being a great youtuber with a bubbly personality that's so positive and makes me excited to play The Sims! xDD 💚
Vlad’s place is so prefect! I love the corridor
Promoted after bringing a vampire who drank a co-worker's blood! 😂
Have one of them make jewelry as a hobby. That would get you more money for the bills. Also, it would be funny to have one of them sell the jewelry😊
48:57 “I think just being at work is causing me to burn out.” TOO REAL.
Move the plants near Patchy!
Whoa the mermaid cave entrance is incredible
Its kinda cute that Semaj brings his weird little buddies everywhere
4:00 - I can already tell it's a BAD idea, because the vault money adds to the lot value and you get horrendous bills 🤣 🤣🤣
By completing either Guidry and/or Temperance, you're _technically_ also completing the ghost one, considering they're both _ghosts_ same with the Night Wraith
I'm doing this challenge and I love it! My current household is one sim, one vampire, one spellcaster and one ghost. I created the ghost first by murdering the welcome wagon with puffer fish. Of course that is normal and acceptable behaviour in the sims! I love that my sims are a solid team. My main man needed 2 elements to invent a device and only had one. Step in my spellcaster sim with her copy-pasto spell! We need lots of robot parts to work towards my servo. My ghost sim doesn't mind being dazed from the robot workstation and is confifent that it can't kill her any more dead than she already is! My vampire spends the hours that other people sleep just programming. I'm a programmer and totally can relate.
Every time I see someone use those limited edition plumbob lights, I'm always like 'damn, i wish i got all the sims 3 expansion when sims 4 released' because i only got like 1 pack lol
It's cool but you can get the effects from elsewhere too. Like put an element out when you need focused space. 😊
Ravasheen has a scent to be oil diffuser which does the same thing, it's so useful!
There's no time limit for those :} I bought Into the Future in 2023, put the code in EA app, and got my light in Sims 4. You could buy Sims 3 dlcs for cheap as well now, I'm sure!!
@@foranzo1582 wait... really? Omg...
I'm only 36 seconds in and am IN LOVE with Vlad's new digs.
The Club should be called The Occlubs🤣
Or Occulbs? 😂
42:30 Guidry and Grim chilling by Vladislaus' little cemetery is just COMEDY GOLD 😆
For the Bills: Vlad can work on gardening for nectar making and/or the paranormal career (because its funny) and Snodgrass can do jewelry making and supply the needs potion. Nalani is on the robot grind for the challenge (this is how she contributes).
"It's raining so we didn't actually need the umbrella".... said no one... ever 😅
An hour long video.... just as I've sat down with a cuppa.... and the sun is shining.... What an amazing start to the weekend! 🎉
I love these hour long videos 😌
The draught of reconfiguration is for Vlad's benefit, so maybe the cost of that should come from Vlad's vault.
i love this series!!!! such fun and silly sims content
This challenge is so fun! I love challenges that prompt you to play all parts of the game!
For adding a ghost to the lot, I know you have "kill a sim" as the requirement, but I think it would be fun if you also had to max the medium skill! It would make sense, too - having to be a medium in order to add a ghost into the family. And maybe have to befriend Grim, as well... Re: Snodgrass "Estate": I love the idea of a tower for her! Make it look uber magical, reminiscent of Column's house. Also, don't forget you can also do dark meditation (or whatever it's called) to replenish a vampire's energy!
Having vlad be a gem carver might be a way to keep up on the taxes he mostly caused and give him a niche to work on
I just want to say, I really appreciate you putting subtitles on your videos. I haven’t seen very many KZheadrs do this, but you do and it makes watching your videos even better than before. Appreciate you ♥️
The wizards work in shifts Morgyn EL and Simeon are off duty, lol.
vampire powers fail more often when the sun is up; better to do that indoors until you've got vlad enough points to upgrade his abilities. there is a shower in the magic realm: under the first set of stairs heading down, in the room L Faba likes to hang out in. a tower for bailey snodgrass (i love that name) would be cool! maybe on top of the red bit you built?
the "we're looking for a fourth to join our household" has BIG "me and my wife dig your vibes" energy lmao
This is slowly turning into the occult version of Deli's Tiny Town and Im here for it haha!
"This is my mermaid wife and our 1000 year old son,vlad"
Vampires can use their Dark Meditation skill to recharge their vampire energy. I use that so much my vampires never sleep.
Don’t forget that plumbite when cut and charged keeps your need refilling quickly over time if you’re near it. Your already gathering crystals so look them over encase any others come in handy. I vote vald has to be the paranormal guy who dose the summoning lol. It would fit with the vampire thing lol
It's like what cults say they're doing when you move into the compound - "we're keeping your money safe for you!" Except you really are.
I love how Nalani was so chill seeing her husband chatting with grim and a ghost 😂😂
I am loving the chaos of these challenges they are my favorite thing to watch right now!
