In this new GROUNDBREAKING Sims 4 Series, I will be judging and rating every single EA build in The Sims 4! Join me and Princess EA on our quest to find the ugliest houses EA has ever made.
Let me know what world you think is the UGLIEST in the comments down below!
PLAYLIST:
Episode 1 | Willow Creek: • Judging and Rating Eve...
Episode 2 | Oasis Springs: • Judging and Rating Eve...
Sims 4 has a lot of houses that make no sense, lmfao. I'll take the ugliest sims 3 house over sims 4's best and that's saying a lot.
I feel like I've taken the Sims 3 builds for granted...
I always saw Johnny’s house as a hodgepodge of stuff he stole from his parents, contractors that were charging cheap and building cheap, and Johnny is just waiting for making it big to make improvements. Lol Surviving on your own is an ugly process.
I thought that too, but the items seem like he took the items from The Goths not the Landgraabs 😂
36:57 The Sims 4 actually does have pianos in the base game, but I can see why you would think otherwise considering they left a bunch of other stuff out
It's hard for me to keep track since I dont play it anymore. I noticed that some things were added to base game as well, (like pools were before), I am most impressed with the NEUTRAL (THANK GOD) colour swatches to base game build objects
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE continue this series! I tuned in every single time on The Sims 3 ones, looking forward to each new episode and god knows i'll do the same here. I think you should just go chronologically.
Thank you! I plan to keep going!
I agree, Oasis is a little bit better with the homes than Willow Creek. And the Landgrabs mansion is a mess.
voting would be fun, but Windenburg is gonan be a treat to watch anyways
I think Windenburg is the largest Sims 4 world, and Willow Creek/Oasis Springs are tied for #2.... windenberg might need 2 episodes
I couldn't agree with you more about the Landgraab house. Who in their right mind thought that was a good idea? It looks like an early 70s US fire station on steroids!
It seems no one here is a fan of that house
Maybe you could do some of the smaller worlds together? Like Magnolia Promenade with the vacation worlds, Granite Falls and Selvadorada. The 3 occult worlds: Forgotten Hollow, Glimmerbrook and Moonwood Mill. My vote for the next ones would be for that first suggestion I made: Magnolia Promenade, Granite Falls and Selvadorada. Also, can't believe you didn't point out the giant giraffe toy in the Caliente's dining room. It always makes me laugh whenever I load into that house😂
I didn't see the giraffe 😭 i hate the ones on that Sims 3 bookshelf
@@Rekowcskimental trauma is strong with this one🥃
Can’t wait for Newcrest! Best sims 4 builds EA has ever done 😂
I especially love the 20x15 lots 😭
Thank you for the fridge/oven thing! Every single build (even Simmers’ builds) seems to have them next to each other and it’s such a pet peeve of mine - you don’t put ‘thing that makes hot’ right next to ‘thing that makes cold’! I don’t think any of them has ever seen an actual kitchen LOL!
It drives me crazy!
Yes, I agree and avoid it in my own builds however this is common irl. I've seen it plenty, especially in flats.
Actually sitting area in the office is great idea IRL. If you work from home, you can rest there, instead of your living room, which avoids mixing your feelings towards what is home and what is work, like many people working from home struggling with.
I think the sitting area in the office is a good idea, it's just that by the time we get to a good seating area, they've already added 4 in other places that didn't need to be there 😭
Don’t remind me of the horrors of Johnny Zests trailer 😭😭
I'm sorry i had to 😭
i’ve been waiting for this one… TURN IT UP 😧🚨🚨🚨
you has the first comment!
“I certainly will not!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣😭
that was my favourite joke of the episode haha
cant wait for your newcrest review
It is simply stunning, 10/10
Maybe you could do new Sims 4 world when it comes out (Tomarang) or do it in chronological order (a small episode on Magnolia Promenade and two part episode on Windenburg)
I might have to join the creator network to get all the packs 😭 i dont want to give the sims 4 more money hahah
Hey I noticed at the end of the video you said you can’t do an episode on magnolia promenade, well there were three hidden lots that came in get to work (hospital, science lab, police station) so maybe a mini episode of those and the retail lots?
hmmm you're right, maybe I can include the career lots to fill up the episode
OGChris is here! Loving this new series! I'm impressed with the roof cut outs on the second house. Which sims 3 neighborhood is this one reminding me of? I can't place it.
Maybe lucky palms?
@@scottydoesntkn0w mabey, it's bugging me! Lol😊
@@scottydoesntkn0w I went and looked and you are right! Ty
I think I mention Lucky Palms at some point haha, mid century desert was a good idea for the second base game world i think
I like these overviews! I think you should do all and chronologically. Don't forget that builds that came with Get to work also include Science Lab, Hospital, Police Station and Sixam so there is a total of 7 lots to review when it comes to Magnolia Promenade :)
Thank you! Yes magnolia promenade will be next plus the three career venues THEN windenberg haha
It still baffles me how people just accepted these worlds & homes 💀
Hello from Spain! I love this series. I have never seen every build and enjoy your rating of them and your humor. Glad I found your channel and look forward to and hope you continue through every world! Thank You!
What EA did to the caliente's is a crime shame the mother should be Nighat not Katrina.
They were a hot mess. I also edit them to their original looks because absolutely not.
I can't believe it took them 2 years to "fix" them
I remember the courtyard build for the Caliente's! ^^ I'm the one that requested it ❤😂
Thank you I remember! I figured may as well do mid century instead of a barnacle bay farm
Ok loving this series!
You can fish in the pond at the park
Thank you Wendy!
Hello Reko! The fridge and the stove drives me nuts too haha, i am having so much fun with this.
Hi Federica! We knew EA would be up to their own tricks
I'm assuming they broke the pre-made paper roll positionings in one of the patches as they're not supposed to be this high up each time. Just like they definitely broke that Willow Creek gym's shower walls in a patch.
I actually prefer Willow Creek bc it reminds me of New Orleans which I adore. Plus I hate the orange lighting in Oasis Springs. It drives me bonkers. I hope you do Windenburg next it’s my fave bc each neighborhood provides a different living experience. Maybe you could combine Magnolia Promenade with the other smaller worlds. I look forward to checking out your Willow Creek video.
I think in real life, the new Orleans style is by far superior. It's just not the best style for the sims 4 base game and build mechanics I think. Nor any sims game haha
Brandi Broke is my favorite. I redesigned her trailer and it's so much more livable.
in the sims 2 i always split her big bathroom into 2 smaller ones haha
@@Rekowcski same, the redesign is on my channel. Two good-size bedrooms, 2 2x2 bathrooms. And then a large centralized living space
All the green grass in oasis springs just makes me wonder which lakes in the area they are destroying to ship water into the area to water their dumb lawns Lmao
I modified the Agave Abode to include appliances, dining tables, and beds from Jungle Adventure, along with a wall mounted TV and two computers. All of the houses that I have modified used items from the High School Years, Nifty Knitting Stuff, Desert Luxe, Jungle Adventure, Luxury Party Stuff, and Home Chef Hustle packs, the last four of which were obtained for free as part of special promotions or giveaways (the home chef hustle was one of them). Using the counters from home chef hustle stuff and the sofas from desert luxe Kit made agave abode way better than it was in base game but it caused it to lose its status as a starter home. I did the same with the Crick Cabana and Daisy Hovel homes in Willow Creek and LaSuli Point in Copperdale, with Daisy Hovel being expanded to two stories.
I think the Jungle Adventure build buy is a hidden gem in the Sims 4... i ADORE the kitchen items
See I like houses I have to "enhance" because I can make it fit the sim and add in stuff that they find or make or need for their job, or whatever. I guess that's why I'm mostly ok with the only barely ok starter houses. Johnny's house I always thought that it was "reclaimed" furniture and that's why its such a mix mash. I think the most I played the "roomies" was Zoey was one of my sims bestests bff's. That's all I got for them. OMG, you said the EA catch phrase "It's so pretty" for the world. And I always say afterward, "But we need more than pretty." Whenever I'm playing now I can't use certain browns and greens because I hear you in my head saying "baby poo", lol.
something this series made me realize is how strange the lighting looks in the sims 4, like why is every shadow blue no matter what?
Yeah it's a little too cartoon for me
lmao the floating light
Yaaasss! Another neighborhood where I've only played the cheapest house and never looked at the other residences or even the commercial lots except for the bar. I liked seeing them for the first time, even though they're filled with the bad base game furniture. It would be fun to see Windenburg next!
i always moved into the second cheapest, with the squares on the roof haha
I love all the lilsimsie references as i love her too hehe
She built herself up into the biggest simmer on the platform, she deserves her success
@@Rekowcski for sure! The amount of times a week she posts and streams is insane
It would be nice to have some of the smaller worlds all together in an episode. Like, maybe, Glimmerbrook could go in a video with Forgotten Hollow and Moonwood Mill. In that way you could do Magnolia Promenade... with Granite Falls, maybe?
final comment: i love the midcentury vibes, dislike the mediterranean ones a bit (personal style choice). i truly believe oasis springs brought out my innate love of midcentury n clean lines w the rafia quinta neighborhood
I like both styles, but I think EA is better with the mid century style. The clean lines are very compatible with the sims build mechanics
Everytime you reacted with "ew" it really cracked me up 🤣 thank you for the great content 🤍
Glad you enjoyed 😭
I am scared that you'll review sims 2 builds one day because I will NOT tolerate any Veronaville slander
veronaville will be easy since it's the same house copied over and over
"In fact I mostly like desert worlds, because I live in Canada." Interestingly it's somewhat different for me. I live in the Ruhr Valley (Germany) and because of this I instinctively like any place that looks like it and often try to build like it in the Sims. "Why do I keep talking about the Sims 2?" Because it is the superior game. Okay, maybe not in build mode, but the gameplay is much more fun. Alright 20 minutes in, I'm pleasantly surprised by the scores. Thought they would be much lower... but perhaps the worst is yet to come. But it's weird how the starter and uninhabitated homes have more style to them than the Sim houses. As if not making the Sims interesting wasn't bad enough.
It's weird because when I first visited Las Vegas, I was stunned that the earth was an entirely different colour 😂 maybe that's why I like deserts. Conversely, if I am in a greener world, I love playing in winter and snow I'm glad you enjoyed the episode, thanks for tuning in!
15:06 sad and amazing is a weird combo of feelings
Yes and it's common for me
I can't wait for the next episode
Same 😂
One thing that drives me insane about The Sims 4 is everything looks so Minecraft-y, boxy and basic. I like the grittier look of S3. Another thing that drives me insane is when I watch your videos I always try to pause it with the tilde key.
Oh here's something else that drives me insane. The roofing is illogical. When you have gables meeting like a V the drainage will be awful. One house had the slope go right into the courtyard and wouldn't it be SPLENDID to get rain pouring into your courtyard? :P
Oh jeez what's with the stair pitch? S3 has a really natural 3:4 rise/run. These are practically stepladders, or at best fire escapes.
You are trying to pause with the tilda key because it's rare to see a sims KZheadr in the actual game 😭
The FIRST EVER house I reviewed 2 years ago in sunset Valley, it was "Asilomar" and I commented exactly that! The roof will just collect all the water and it's either leaking into your house or dumping all the water on the outside space 💦 😭
In The Sims 3, most ugly houses could be easily renovated using the Create-A-Style tool and picking better colors and textures. In The Sims 4, there are some houses that are unfixable unless you rebuild a huge chunk of them. Most roofs are ugly AF. Thank God the gallery is so easy to use, because it would be torture if I had to renovate those houses myself.
I would really love to see you react to the Sims 2 houses since it is an old game 😂
i love the sims 2... the most shocking houses are in that lots and houses bin haha
Me too I'd love to see sims 2! ❤
This being as long as it is was AMAZING for my dinner.
Someone told me to make the episodes shorter and I said NO 😂
You caught it on camera, but didn't see it. At the back of Agave Abode there is a single random floor tile at the back corner of the lot.
I saw that after I finished editing! It's like 1 tile of terracotta outside cry 😭
8:57 6 for this is crazy to me but i think it is cuz i HATE DESPISE LOATHE the hipped roofs with no extended eave oasis springs is one of my fav worlds but i dislike most if not all prebuilts. i love the mid century modern homes in the mid-range tho
ME TOO IT LOOKS LIKE LEGO
rekowscki i cant wait for you to get millions of subscribers and be a big name sims youtuber because you are so witty
I'm hoping it happens once the magic spell EA has over the sims 4 community is broken
@@Rekowcski you could infiltrate the sims 4 community and critique it from the inside satchonsims style 🤔
oh can you do newcrest next? 😂
10/10
This video explains one reason why I hated playing the sims 4 and reverted back to 3. Plus I couldn’t figure out how to easily expand the prebuilt houses 🙄. Also the green is overdone and overused. It’s too time consuming to go through and fix every single house just to play.
The Sims 4 at least has small worlds so you only have to fix a few builds instead of 100 😭
@@Rekowcski😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂
the roomies household is based off of the show new girl in which case schmidt aka j huntington iii would have the light blue bedroom
I didnt know that! I am familiar with the show
i wish you would critique my builds/renos just for the fun of it hahaha
I've considered it before, but I dont want to hurt someone's feelings :( haha
No word can describe how disappointed I was when I saw this version's Landgraab Mansion. The house's green smells like "tree hugger", but definitely not "filthy rich" Franklin dollars! I immediately packed Nancy, Jeffery and their kid to Windenburg into a High-Renaissance style villa I built for them, neighboring with "crooked" Goths. To be honest, I still prefer them to be old money. (Why Sims4 filthy riches can't own multiple houses??!!)
I renovated the landgraab house so many times... but if we based on the sims 3 house, then windenberg is the obvious choice! Good idea, maybe I'll see a house that is good for them when we review that world!
Johnny's trailer always struck me as telling a bit of a story and feels intentionally ugly
I think a lower wall height and a quick door/window replacement would do wonders for it
Del Sol Valley next maybe?
I love del sol Valley, but I do not love the houses 😭
@@Rekowcski All the more hillarious
sims 2 builds next?
princess ea keeps stealing the show
She is the true star of the series
Darling, how dare you? It’s the sims 4, it smells like shit😂 ok, no jokes, thank you for this!❤️
it STANKS
Hey friend. I have played Oasis Springs. But only liked Yuma Heights and would renovate it when I did live in it. And would some times play in the Landgraab house too. That is one ugly house too. That's why I prefer Yuma Heights.
Yuma Heights is my favourite too, it is the most ready for you to move in whoever you are playing. I wonder if the Sims 3 Landgraab house recreation would fit on the Sims 4 lot
@@Rekowcski I hate to say. I don't know friend. You can try it. But if you do. The lot will cut off sections that do not fit the lot. I have done that before, and had that happen. So be careful.
