Always wanted to try this - RIP Jebediah Dingleberry I, Jebediah Dingleberry II, Jebediah Dingleberry III, Jebediah Dingleberry IV, and Jebediah Dingleberry V
Have you considered playing any Unreal World on stream? It's great fun and might be right up your alley
they were necessary sacrifices.
F
Where did the new generations come from without the wife and kids? Are the Jebediahs a species of bacterium, perchance? Are the Jebediahs all daughters of the first seemingly male monocellular Jebediah? Could the Dingleberry line all be a strain of nasty, short lived, dirty, bowel-dwelling bacteria?
Jebediah Dingleberry I, who begat Jebediah Dingleberry II, who begat Jebediah Dingleberry III, who begat Jebediah Dingleberry IV, who begat Jebediah Dingleberry V
Not going to lie, I thought this was going to be a philosphical deconstruction of pieces of art that only exist in The Sims 1.
Me too. But this is also good.
Yes me too !!!!
Same
Im guessing none of you knew about ambigious before watching this video 😂
@@Bonde7280 I've been watching for a year or two, I'm just dumb lmao.
Jeb the fourth was the most relatable for me...
Everyone felt that
Heyyy it's RCE
Ayy, what a pleasant surprise.
the only one without dreams of being an architect
I think Death was the real artist all along. The canvas was the family of Dingleberries. The works painted with a brush made of suffering dipping into a paint can labeled "Futility".
All craftsimship is of the highest quality.
Oooh, I wasn't thinking about this during my post. I applaud your comment and wish I could like it more than once. You are very wise and observant.
I read this in ambiguousamphibian’s voice
@@dariushine416 craftsdwarfship
The bard's taking inspiration, I see.
I love how this went from a struggling artist to an art sweat shop with child workers. Steve Jobs would be proud.
implying that this is not how it always goes lol
Implying that this is exactly how it goes
No?
@@TheSultan1470 Yes he would, considering his phones are made by slave child labor in China.
I trapped my wife in the basement, then painted the entrance door. I titled it "Entrance to the hostage room" and sold it for 500 dollars
go back to heaven you beautiful beast
Me too! By the way what is that "sims" game ?
Jim Pickens is that you?
@@magusperde365 I've never heard of it before, why is everybody talking about it in the comments?
@@magusperde365 haha youre joking right? Right?
"I'll show you, Dad! I'll be a starving artist!"
**Starves**
Well, this challenge escalated quickly into a repetitive cycle of death.
very based playthrough
Very realistic tho
That's life, man.
No. Literally. That is how life works.
Welcome to AmbiguousAmphibian. Pretty much what he does in each video.
Don't all challenges do that, though?

I love the deep dive into all the old classics you've been doing lately AA. All these perfect games for videos that came out a decade before TH-cam videos were possible.
I smell a new trend....
I did the "start with $0 challenge" in the Sims 4 and it just doesn't have the same difficulty curve that earlier Sims does. Or the Slacker career. Although there was a period of time that Irma Ho'Mlessmann lived off of glasses of water. Turns out water in the Sims spoils really fast.
Rags to riches in Sims 4 is a joke, they just won't die!
haha yeah, it’s a joke how easy it is to get money in 4. Gardening makes the money cheats redundant.
As soon as I saw that sims name I fucking busted a gut laughing
To be fair, if I let a glass of water sit for an hour I won't drink it anymore.... maybe the Sims are on to something.
Killing them in 4 is harder than keeping them alive. That’s why most of my save files just devolve into me trying to make them so angry they drop dead from rage.
The SimCity 4 music really fits your style, I love it
Jerry Martin's soundtracks were incredible - still hum them around the house even decades later, haha
@@ambiguousamphibian Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated? I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else. Gets me frustrated. Just admit that you love the videos I make, my dear am
@@AxxLAfriku brainlet lmao
The sims 2 music as well
Bro this sounds like the music from the film snatch..
As someone from a household whose only source of income is my father's art commissions, this is very accurate.
Hope you're prepared to get haunted
@@melskunk Oh, we're *omega* haunted.
That ship has sailed.
@@bionicdragon5Was your grandfather or a relative who was also an artist ?
first painting he ever did was a perfect photorealistic picture... sold for 0 simoleons lol. also --> cassandra blew-it
You turned the Sims 1 into a rogue-like.
LMAO
Underrated
Literally Rogue Legacy.
"and for three days I boxed out child protective services whenever they attempted to confiscate my infant" - Josef Fritzl, struggling artist.
I didn't even know you could do that, wish I had thought of it. 😂
I swear on Jesus I lost it in that part.
I've literally known people who kept "art goblins" in their Sim's basement. Yes this is literally possible.
They're just making a modern animation studio is all.
I had a bunch of family members make gnomes.
Can confirm. Considering trying the same thing but with a musician, ergo a mixtape goblin.
it's me, i'm the art goblin
Ah the classic of making a painting club then locking them up and selling their paintings for your profit
Gnomes are broken. At mechanical 10 you pump out dozens a day at 100 each if I recall right. It's how I ended up playing most of the time
Edit: wrote LV 100 instead of 10.
I looked it up. It paid §100 at max mechanical, and only took 25 ingame mins to make. Way more than any painting because of the rate you make gnomes.
I did that with gargoyles. You get so much more money than you could in any job. Maybe apart from being a top celebrity.
This is going to sound weird but I have extremely bad insomnia and your videos legit help me get sleep at night. Thank you so much for being such a great content creator
Must be very annoying to have insomnia, hope you'll get better :). But his voice is relaxing in a way indeed.
If it helps at all you can check out his VOD channel for longer length soothing amphibious talk!
I am actually in a similar boat. It's 3 am and I'm trying to sleep 😴 these videos are somehow v relaxing
I find journey to the microcosmos to be the perfect channel for sleepness nights!
I remember one of my Sims had a successful career as an author with a series of books called Gun Violence.
He did some others but Space Wank didn’t ever do as well as Gun Violence or Gun Violence 2: Reloaded.
You caught my attention with the Rollercoaster Tycoon video, reeled me in with The Sims Starting with $0, and have me completely sold with this starving artist. Love these videos!!
Haha same!
God Tier Naration, and yes keeping away child protection services is an important step towards intergenerational wealth 😄
This is “100 years of Solitude” but with less incest. Great book.
Almost anything has less incest than 100 years of solitude. Except game of thrones.
That book traumatized me 😭
No one wants to be the person that, when talking about their art collection, throws in 'Oh, and I bought a Dingleberry too! Wanna see it?'
This video is a perfect mix of nostalgia, curiosity and humor. Not everyday you stumble upon a person that experiments with old Maxis games and narrates such funny stories, I wasn't able to hold my laughter by the half of the video.
I remember flipping the right expensive paintings playing the sims and actually making good money because certain paintings increase in value over time
This reminds me of the legendary Sims 3 series by Robbaz, The Redneck Brothers. Bertram the Butler was the "art goblin" of the Redneck household, and it made them thousands upon thousands.
Of course, Clyde Redneck was also a professional thief (and murderer with a modded gun), so that came in handy as well. King Redneck was the inventor, he also planted ambrosia to keep everyone young and alive indefinitely, and bring the dead back to life.
Great series, heartily recommended.
God... I haven't thought about that series in years. I think it's time for a rewatch. Thanks for reminding me of it.
It, Al Chestbreach's "Duggart" Family, and Call Me Kevin's Jim Pickens series are all wonderful.
It was the longest running series from Robbaz. I miss his regular uploads
@@Manslayer-eo1nh we all do
@@archerj2010 AlChestBreach… aye… that’s a name i haven’t heard in years
As a someone with an MD in art I must say that this is is most accurate description of a life as an artist I ever seen.
Except the first artist who starved to death had more money than you.
An MD in art? Was this the joke?
@@nickthompson1812 i wish
Anyone remembers the fact that the game keeps firing you after you reach career lvl 10.
God I hate it.
Honestly I feel like everyone who has played enough Sims-1 has done this, the answer is yes
Wonderfully philosophical and classic gamerific. The pitiful lives of the Dingleberries and their fight from the bottom of the art scene to the apex was very engaging. Your editing style is really getting solidified and smooth. Good work as always mang.
they are always old white men 😭😭😭
Sims series seems to cather more towards classic "shady ORGANisation" amphibian that I, personaly, love and miss.
The struggle of an unfulfilled artist is one humanities most virtuous tragedies. To put yourself totally into your work which you value so much, dying for appreciation, dying of depression and starvation, dying not for mere attention but careful eyes and ears. That is true commitment to the arts. Commitment means you come back to your values when you inevitably fall short in your journey, the artist, we live in a society.
Oh my God
A man named adolf was a starving artist once then he went on to leading a country,
I say art is a good career path :)
You should have waited 3 days to make that comment.
@@KimStennabbCaesar how so
@@RW1A Then it would have been 4/20.

THIS WAS MY FAVORITE WAY TO PLAY SIMS 1! I was so bummed when they didn't let you sell garden gnomes in future entries in the series.
How to turn Sims 1 into a depressing roguelite
My Sim was able to retire through painting in Sims 4. The OG game is clearly a whole different animal…
Gotta say, your style of editing and narrating the challenge instead of live commentary is hilarious! Subbed!
I dont know if it would've failed the challenge, but I always make my sims 1 sims start with randomized skills. You do this all in create a sim via making a child, then edit the child to be an adult. Repeat for every sim intended to an adult. Once you finalize the household, all adult sims created with the method will have a randomized set skill points allocated to them.
The best meta in Sims 1 is making and selling gnomes.
This explains why the greatest artists are always a bit odd fellas
A true joy to see another The Sims 1 video from ambiguousamphibian.
*"He wears a hard hat to shield himself from economic adversity"*
This is truer than you realize kids, get a trade skill, fuck college. I legit am buying my first home after 6 years in a trade after spending my 20's languishing at dead end service jobs. It's hard work, but rewarding.
Truth. Recessions come and go, but people will always need shit built or fixed.
I was a smart kid and needed to go to university because of it and boy do I wish I'd learned to drive a dump truck or use my carpentry skills instead.
As I and my coworkers always say "there's nowhere in the civilized world that doesn't need security guards or janitors".
Same but with USPS. Hard as fuck but I make an assload of money at 23
8:53 I love that he named the child “1”
The lesson learned here is that life itself is a multi-level-marketing scam. Do not perpetuate it.
I love that you're making Sims 1 videos now.
Hey, I have an idea for you: make a vault in Rimworld, and I’m talking about using the tribal DLC so you can make a fallout vault, this came into my head after seeing some mods adding weapons from fallout (so you could install those mods to enhance the experience) and I think it would be interesting to see if you can pull off this challenge and pull off what the Vault Tec motto says and create a better future, underground.
I saw the title and thought, oh yeah i've done that. Start watching and realize; no not quite like this though, theres way more moral ambiguity here.
I love coming to my AA meetings. Pleasure to be back with you all again.
"Meet jebediah dingleberry II, almost exactly the same as jebediah dingleberry I, suspenders and all"
this makes it sound like suspenders were a genetic trait lmao
Nothing to inspire a budding artist like graves of his starved ancestors right next to his easel!
2:17 "You know. I'm sort of a painter myself." - Jebediah Dingleberry II
The sims 1 videos are great! I WISH the game and its packs were digitally distributed on steam or something.
It’s pretty easy to find and get running on a modern pc. Actually watching one of AA’s sim videos was what inspired me to do it. I found it on old games download for free.
as an artist I can say this is pretty accurate
Always something great about going back to these older games and proving they're still so full of potential and fun.
Loving the Sims videos lately!
0:09 yes it is possible, this how I used to play sims when I was younger 😂
This hits differently when you're an artist.
1:54 You're not really doing it by painting then. You're getting donations. I know you really can't force a guy that is starved of everything to be creative, and that this might be the only way to actually finish the challenge, but so far it's a no go in my eyes. (I wrote this as I watched this exact part of the video).
Well, I wasn't wrong. The first Dingleberry died!
Edit: I see. I kinda misunderstood the challenge. You have heirs, and then you see what heir finally makes it due to the "mistakes" of his forfathers. Now it's on!
I've watched this like 4 times in under 24 hours. The sims 1 nostalgia and your soothingly morbid monologue make for a perfect combination.
8:38 the TV covering the window is my favorite part
3:33
Ghost reference?
This was like watching Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure, I would get attached to the main character only to watch them die and be replaced by the next generation.
Art really does imitate life, and life is a simulation.
This really says a lot about our society
Dude...this is such a cool idea.. I loved this video. So funny!!
Just discovered your channel; it's my new favorite. Love these classic games and the challenges. 😊
6:30 where's that sound effect from? I think I first heard it in X-Dream - Rewind, some twenty years ago, and never figured out where it's sampled from
Love the Sims 1 content! :D
Actual Persona 5 villain backstory.
I miss custom paintings in the Sims 2... In the later ones you need mod packs that overwrite paintings or add entirely new paintings, but making a mod like that is a lot of work.
Just slapping custom stuff into a file and the game being like "Yep, that's a thing" was great.
Dude the level of effort this guy puts into making these videos is unmatchable. I have only played The Sims like twice and now I am obsessed with SimCity 3000 because of this guy. His jokes are so well thought out, the little edits of other gameplay the video cuts to sometimes for eye candy id genius. This guy is brilliant and hilarious and he also gives genuine tips about the game as well! Awesome
I love how their beds are outside with their easels 🤣
This hits harder when you're listening while painting
As an artist I can confirm this is exactly how it works
this series caused me to redownload "The Sims" and I don't think I will ever forgive you.
Sir, you should be writing stories for Hollywood or Netflix, seriously. This is the very first video I've seen from you, but I'm already in love with that creativity. This story sounds like it's straight out of a horror movie:
A rather poor but genius painter meets an attractive and cold executive lady who likes his paintings but doesn't care much about him at first. He nonetheless tries to win her over, while the audience roots for him and feels his sadness each time he gets rejected. Then, finally, she says "yes"! Everything is going so well and it feels like a happy film about love and a never giving up mentality with a (way too soon) good ending for our hardworking and likeable protagonist. Half the movie in, the setting suddenly changes. They get their first baby and the husband starts to act... strangely. He changes. Everyone around the family sees a loving dad that inherited his skills and talent to his two daughters, practicing with them and encouraging them to follow their dream to succeed as artists, like he did. Only the mother notices that he changed. Someday, as the teenage girls got interested in other things than painting, the man snaps. Horrible things happen in that house since then and the man finally showed his true face. His mad plan to "repay" his ancestors, no matter the cost, drives him to extreme violence, over and over again. The honest and friendly man really never existed, his entire personality was all a lie... and while being at home, he will never pretend to be a good dad and husband again...
Gosh that story could go so many ways from this point on. A thrilling life or death situation at the end would be interesting, where the father tries to kill his wife and daughters and rather start a new family than to let his daughters quit painting. And while his daughters are way too scared, helpless or even crippled by their dads torture so they can't defend themselves, at the end it's the mother and maybe a boyfriend of one of the girl who kill the mad painter at the end. Um, sorry for escalating a bit xD but the setting is just so perfect for a horror movie. The plot twist could be just as good as the one from the movie Parasite, which also started as a comedy but turned to horror in the last 30 minutes.
5:06 "final nail in the coffin" this sentence reminds me of my bf who broke with me not that long ago and i hate this
It was the $1200 dining room chairs paired with cheapest table at 7:45 that did it for me.
"Your father's father...your father's father's father's father..." Are you a Ghost (band) fan by the way?
I audibly laughed at "boxing out cps every time they tried to confiscate my new child"
Careful Jeb - the field of family/collective art dealers are filled with ruthless people. Gym makes you strong- Pickens your fights wisely!
I have NEVER seen a bad video from you man! LOVE your stuff!!!! Keep up the good work!
Why is it that whenever I see the Sims I always just think if project zomboid
The best time-for-money job is selling butter at top Cooking skill, btw.
When it's your children, it's not child slavery, it's family business.
i like these but iI miss the ambiguousamphibian series, like the rimworld ones :(
I love that you use sims music as the background for your sims videos, it's so nostalgic for me.
This really reminds me of a family curse to make at the first born males to become terrible artists
hey what difficoulty do u play on in project zomboid?? thx
Jeb 6 "I don't like painting, I'm going to sell this easel."
If he fails, there's always the option to be head of state and invade Poland
Well I mean...This is much more of a ''How many generations of selling the starting items takes to make a full house'' Challenge.
I loved it Either way.
So happy to see you making multiple sims 1 videos. I was hoping the last one wouldn't be the only. Thanks buddy👍
The way you make money with painting in the Sims is to capture neighbors. Invite them over for a party then freeze time and build them into a little cubicle. Only put a toilet, fridge and easel in each cubicle. Keep inviting neighbors over and keep adding cubicles until you max out the buildable area. With nothing else to do except paint, everybody's creativity will max out and your art farm will realize its maximum profit potential
life is really hard at the moment but your videos always manage to put a smile on my face. thanks dude. God bless you
When you play the Gamecube version, you start off living with your mother and have to borrow money until you get enough to move out. I always used the money to buy an easel and earn my own money. I'd also buy other skill building items and get them maxed out before I move out. That's probably just me, though. I enjoy the slow burn element because it's relaxing.
Why does Jebediah Dingleberry II look like Willem Dafoe
7:36 dude you are hilarious, glad i subbed to this channel.
We need more Sims videos hahaha love this
Cut to short. I want to see the army of child painters!
