Thank you for all the love my darlings! I'm still in holiday mode, but I'm reading through all the comments and I'll get back to them soon! Miss all your bloody faces, see you all on Monday 💚
I watched Lilsimsie's video where she reacts to the world and I knew the Watson Family Farm was your build because of the plants being rotated to avoid repetition 😂 Absolutely beautiful builds Aden!!! Congratulations and may you have many more opportunities like this come your way!!!!💜
Does anyone else just want to cry absolute tears of joy for Aden? These builds are so perfect and I can’t think of anyone that deserves it more! 🥺❤️ literal fave x
Omg, comparing this builds to the usual EA ones 😹 It’s like asking a toddler and an art student to draw from the same refference picture ! Congrats, Aden, I am very happy for you! 😻
i saw at James Turner chanel his early access to game and thouhgt "hey, EA made so good looking houses at last!" and then i heard that actual gamers did that soooo... :D
@@BengtBagels we just love and support him! i literally remember him still working in the hairdressers and quitting to pursue youtube full time! feel like a proud mum 😭❤️
Yeah, like Windenburg for example is supposed to be inspired by European/German towns, and it does remind me of that (being from Germany), but you can clearly tell that it was made by Americans :D
I grew up as a pub kid so I was always in pubs with my dad and his mates with the sticky tables and the red ugly carpet. The pub just brings back so many memories. The builds are really good I would never be able to build like that.
Yesterday, I was watching one of your videos where you talked about how chimneys on pre-made sim houses don't align with the fireplaces. I then bought and played this expansion pack and reacted to that they appear to have learned their lesson since they were aligned in the pub :D Little did I know...
Months ago the Sims put out a survey and one of the questions was asking about you tubers/simmers/ influencers that we would like to see them work with and I remember putting your name down twice. I’m so glad that first pack that you get to put your own special touch on is the Cottage Living pack. I remember you saying that one of your goals with your builds is to put more English inspired builds into the Sims and I love that you get to do so with a pack that’s inspired by an English city. I can’t wait to get this pack to experience your builds in person!!!!!!!
I’m sooooo happy you included a kitchen in the pub! It is so frustrating when I want to have my sims have a wedding in a bar and have to go into build mode and make a kitchen that doesn’t always go with the building. I hate having to choose that function at the expense of esthetic. So that is amazing! I love your pub ☺️
Me to my husband: “I KNEW THAT WAS ADEN’S BUILD!” “Omgggg a pond!” “He did so well, I’m so proud of him.” Lovely builds darling! That 64x64 is stunning. I saw the terrain paint and knew right away it was a Devon Bumpkin build! So happy the Sims gave you this opportunity; you deserve it!
Aden!! You spoil us even when you’re taking time off! You’re such an angel 💖💖💖 I hope you and Tom are having a great time! So excited to hear about it soon 🥰
I'm a year late with this (I hadn't discovered your channel yet back then), but I just wanted to say thank you for this! It's one thing for me to find these things in the game and think "oh, that's pretty", but quite another to understand the cultural context and the love and care that went into it all.
Also - Aden in every video for the past 2 weeks, in average 3x per video: "darlings dont forget I'll be off dont expect any pre-recorded video from me this week okbye", Aden today "hiiiiyyyeee 👀"
I must say, when I first saw this pub I KNEW the sims team did NOT build this! I’m so glad that it was you because I thought this was absolutely stunning and I had a feeling that it was you! ❤️
I can't describe my feelings rn only clear thing is I'm emotional. I've fallen love with those lots.... Those builds are so far the best builds in official sims franchise games with no doubt. The 64 by 64 lot farm house is a complete dream come true in sims even for me as a relatively new simmer. Aden you did such a glorious job I cannot appreciate this enough! You work through so well with all the restrictions. I'm sooooo so so delightful to see your participation in this EP. I also cannot wait to see others adoring the pub and the farm house you built. Again big big congratulations Aden. Enjoy the vacation too and have loads of fun, you eventually will see these hot lovely comments when you are back 😂
I’m so late to the party only just recently started watching all of your videos, I actually shed a tear knowing you had this opportunity - it was so deserved and the lots are amazing!
I’ve never watched you before today, but the builds with this pack are stellar, and both of yours are really exceptional! I think YT suggested this video since I just watched James Turner try not to ruin your build in Dream Home Decorator, LOL. PS: I just had a wedding at the pub and the kitchen was so helpful!
Love, love, love your Cottage Living builds! It's wonderful that the Sims developers are continuing their brilliant trend to use content creators like yourself to add fun and polish to the new packs. Congratulations to you for being chosen! Who better to build a proper English village pub and country estate than someone who lives there? I can hardly wait to play in this beautiful world. I hope my Sim whippets won't behave toward the bunnies in game the way my real-life whippets do! (Oh, the carnage!) Congrats, again; very well done!!!
I’ve just recently joined your community and I’m super excited to know just now (I’ve been binge-watching 😉) that you contributed to Cottage Living - one of the highly fave packs of most people!!!!! Love love love your builds and energy so much!!!
@@DylanWeicker I hope TH-cam's algorithm doesn't flag/delete this for spam bc of the link, but it's in this video (th-cam.com/video/-ApaR8HIofM/w-d-xo.html), and the story starts at 6:39 :)
I'm so happy you put a kitchen in the pub!! There are so many community lots that you have to update in order to have successful events! Thank you for including this in your beautiful build💞
You have NO idea how proud I am of you and how happy I am that my dear friend got the opportunity to build for the pack! The builds are beautiful as I knew they would be and I can't wait to play with them! 💚 💚 💚 Oh and Sims team if you're reading this, Thank you for giving Aden the opportunity to build for the expansion pack and if you need builders for future packs you know where to find him, thank you!
Your expression at 4:35 at the Watson Family Farm build lot size was absolutely priceless! I love your expressive face, and I adore your wonderful builds. Congratulations Aden. I don’t think that EA could have chosen a better single builder, or a better dream team of builders, for this project! ❤️❤️❤️🥺🥰
I've been watching Semaj play it and now that I've seen your AMAZING builds I can't wait to play it. I've been so bored with Sims lately all the packs and kits have me bored so I'm excited for some new game play and the nights have life in them, fireflies etc
Awwww I'm so genuinely Happy for you Aiden CONGRATULATIONS and Thank you for creating such beautiful venues I'm so glad EA Maxis let you do so your an asset to EA & happy for the other youtubers to create also😊. I'm excited so much more for this pack now I know you helped build two of them. for me it means a lot to see my favourite youtuber from the UK make a British inspired countryside 💜🌳🌿🌞because you know what the buildings/areas are like when you live in such beauty🐣🌲🌱 you have a unique eye for detail. I'm also from the countryside Herefordshire &Worcestershire way so this pack looks amazing 💜
Dying at the 'Spoons shade, so true! Also my ex used to live in a converted corn mill in Chardstock (Devon boy like your good self!) and your farmhouse has such similar vibes to their old house. Really long back range, flagstone downstairs, grandfather clock in the hallway, stairs up the middle etc! Love both builds but the farmhouse is superb.
I actually wanna cry im so happy you got to work on this pack, this pack is perfect for you to be a part of and im so insanely excited to play with your builds when the pack is out!! Congratulations, im so happy for you💕
The hallways, the landings, the landscaping... Gorgeous! The thoughtfulness of including a kitchen in an establishment that serves food and the way the grass is receding to dirt in the Llama's quarters are what sold it to me.
The opportunity couldn't have come to a more worthy builder tbh. Congrats again, now I'm even more excited to play with this expansion! Hope you're having a lovely week off! 💚
I grew up in the Cotswolds, in a small town called Wotton-under-edge. It's so cool to see the sims create a world based on the Cotswolds. Everyone did such an amazing job with all the builds too!!
I'm sooo excited to play on these lots and this world! Just to finally play with this expansion too... I love that they actually asked builders who knows these type of buildings and all, it makes it so mich better... I always love what you do on the game, Aden. Both builds look fabulous! I'm excited to get drunk and have fun on that pub with my Sims!!
I am sooooo proud of you, Aden!! I cannot imagine how you accomplished this without MOO and alt placement. The builds look very full, homey, and overflowing with personality. I can't wait to get my hands on this pack and play around with your creations!!
So happy you have been selected to do 2 builds for the new expansion pack. Your builds are stunning! Looking forward to discover them properly when the EP will be released! Congratulations on a well earned collaboration!
I have to share this with you! I found a show on Amazon Prime called “Hidden Villages” (of England), hosted by actress Penelope Keith, and I’m watching it in preparation for the expansion pack. The more I watch the more excited I become … but now I’m antsy and can’t wait to “get my build on” … lol. I know I commented already but I’ll say it again, it’s so awesome knowing that you built 2 of our lots in the game!! I can’t wait to have my Sims go to your Pub. I just knew the Sims team would pick you to do something for them. How could they not with all the talent you have. Congratulations again Aiden!! We’re all so proud for you ☺️
So pleased for your involvement with this exciting new pack. Look forward to enjoying some of your builds while exploring all the new gameplay. Thanks for all your contributions to our great community, Dev!
I didn't know you were working on this secret project, but the second I saw the builds in the trailer my first thought was "Aden surely built for this pack, I have no doubt", but I could've swear the one with the modern extension was yours, still can't believe you didn't built it 😂 many congratulations, Aden, you deserve it and I'm so happy to see your talent is being recognised! Lots of love from Brazil
OMG! I purposely did not purchase any game packs, nor played Sims4 all summer. I'm literally downloading everything, right now, because of you my dear. Can't wait to visit the pub! I'm so excited! Your builds are absolutely fabulous! Thank u so much, and by the way, I always saw you building for EA/Sims. I was wondering when they'd recognize the talent. The fact that this is an English style pack, I just adore it. Can't wait to play!
I love these. I am primarily a builder but it's nice to have lots that don't need renovating or replacing. I could geek about the pub so much but I'll just say that it's perfect. And I'm in love with the flagstone in the farmhouse. I've never seen it look so good. You did an amazing job on these.
For your expertly ass with the details? I cant imagine how intensely you felt with all the limitations. Even if quite a bit gets taken off Im so proud of you for going for it, these feel so great. 🤗
This is the first video I've watched on this channel. The terrain painting here is absolutely perfect! I don't think anyone else includes this much detail. Love the color choices, too. I'm very excited play in these builds!
Absolutely fabulous!!! I'm so pleased The Sims Team asked you to do this. Just your cup of tea I imagine. You did a marvelous job. I can't wait to play with this expansion pack. It looks so much fun!!!
Absolutely stunning! So glad you're getting recognised for your creativity Aden, you're such an amazing builder and as a fan of your rural english builds, this could not be a more perfect pack for you to be included in. Can't wait to play with your builds! 🧡
Aden has a very unique terrain painting style I’ve noticed, so much so that I saw simsies video first and I knew he’d made the Waltons by the garden layout and terrain paint style, like his signature, very here for it and pleased for our bumpkin for getting to work on such a fitting pack, 10/10 darling
Beautiful build! I love the 2 dining chairs against the wall in the dining room. So realistic! That takes me back to being in my grandparents house growing up. Always extra chairs nearby.
I have seen game play with your lovely pub that you made. It is fabulous! However, I have to save that I so much adore the large farmhouse. I love the colors that you used for the outside front of the house. Gorgeous! Congrats for being chosen to do the builds for the new Cottage Living Pack. Really, really love these builds!
I’m so excited for this new expansion pack! I’m also so very much happy that you were a part of it. Lovely builds, as always they surpassed my expectations. Sending love and hoping you’re having an amazing holiday.
Aiden, I’m so proud of you! I’ve been watching your videos for years, but i really started watching you religiously when the pandemic started and let me tell you, you have quickly become my favorite simmer! I’m so glad the sims team picked you for this pack!! Keep gracing the world with your sass my love, you nailed it!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! (Screamed in gay) Both builds are incredible! I never take my sims to the bars in the game because let’s be real… why would I? But I will 100% be throwing events in your pub! Congratulations you absolute treat!
So proud of you Devon! You were the perfect person to help create Henford on Bagley!! I live in North Yorkshire so I can actually play my setting in game! Love love love !
CONGRATULATIONS! I'm excited to see your builds and to play this new expansion pack! The fact that you created the 64x64 lot and its a stunning build... MAGNIFIQUE!!!!
Congrats, I'm so glad you were chosen to build for this pack! Interesting seeing the reason behind the kitchen in the pub since that's not usually done in The Sims. I'd worry sims would keep cooking their own meals instead of ordering from the bar basically defeating the purpose of it, but I don't think that happened to me when I was playing? Good the realistic touch turned out well lol
I KNEW IT! I'm obsessed with your builds and haven't found one I don't enjoy yet, so when I saw the pub I was like "Did Devon do that?" This pack is quintessential you. Congratz!
I'm so glad you got to build the pub! I've watched so many of your old builds where you do exactly this but making do with other objects...with this pack at hand it's just dialed the Britishness up to maximum!
Absolutely LOVE everything about this! You are amazing, Aden, and I will not be changing a single thing about either of your builds! That farm is my dream house! You have done such a wonderful job and I’m so happy for you ❤️
Absolutely Stunning!! I am so excited about your builds and this new pack! Sneaky, telling us all not to expect any videos from you this week. I have been going through withdrawals, miss your face! Have a great remainder of your vacay!!
These builds look amazing, as always! Congrats on making it in the game! I'm sure I speak for all your subscribers when I say we're proud and excited for you! 😊🎉
I've also been playing the Sims since the beginning and I remember when this pack came out thinking the build quality of the lots was on another level compared to previous packs (Realm of Magic lol), and just recently discovered your channel and am shocked and delighted to learn you built two of my favorite lots!! Belated congratulations, you did an amazing job!
Congratulations! As a fan of your builds I love that you had a part in this. I love visiting England and always wanted to visit Cotswold. Just beautiful. Thank you!
your comment about the pub toilets practically being in the underworld made me laugh so much. its so true, my dad and i go to a pub every now and again and if you need the toilet you've got to go down a creaky staircase, down a dark hallway and then through a trophy room lol!!
I only just discovered the Devon Bumpkin channel about 2 months ago and I love all your builds! So when I came across this video I am not surprised my favourite two builds in Cottage Living are yours! Watson Farm and Gnome's pub are both amazing and I use them both all the time in my game play.
I'm incredibly happy the sims team is continuing letting simmers make the builds for new packs, they are SO much more intricate and well-rounded than the builds in earlier packs! And choosing you for this specific pack was a match made in heaven 😍 I cannot wait for this pack to come out and to see everyone play around in your builds! This pack feels so well done, with a lot of new items and gameplay (compared to earlier expansion packs as well, I feel like), the sims really delivered with this one. Also POND TOOLS I'm so excited for it all
it makes me so happy how excited you are about your builds! i’ve been watching you for ages, and seeing you grow and end up building for a sims expansion pack is so amazing!! cannot wait to play with this pack
So proud of you mate! I KNEW that huge lot was yours while watching the livestream yesterday!! I clocked your terrain paint techniques.. LOL "Oh that's Devon the house down"
Your style was recognised immediately, I have been playing for 21 years and only now have I been inspired to build more intricate and detailed lots. Your videos are inspirational and fabulous Darrrrlinggg!
I'm so very happy for you! Congratulations on being one of the builders on this new expansion pack. Your builds are always amazing! I can't wait to play in this expansion. I'm for it to :-)
IM SO BLOODY PROUD OF YOU!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Your builds look AMAZING! I just had this feeling that you were working with the sims team with all the Mondays off for the ‘project you’re working on’ ! I’m so glad you could be a part of the sims!!! ❤️xxxx
You and your builds are amazing. I especially love the Watson Farmhouse. Of course, you would get asked to participating builds for Cottage Living--I can think of no simmer more suitable than you: the color palette, the whimsical charm, the detail. Congratulations (but you totally deserved this opo!)
Thank you for all the love my darlings! I'm still in holiday mode, but I'm reading through all the comments and I'll get back to them soon!
Miss all your bloody faces, see you all on Monday 💚
Those builds are amazing. YOU ARE AMAZING!
I wonder if you'd be interested in releasing this build with moveobjects and possibly with out the optimized restriction PRETTY PRETTY PLAZ????!
They definitely chose the right person to make these builds, they are utter perfection and I can’t wait to play with them! Congratulations 🥳
BIG BIG FACT❤
The builds are stunning! Congrats I'm so happy for you 💚💚💚
You’re an absolute genius for building this without ‘moveobjects’ I would have died

@@snazzygoth69 thx
As a Brit I can’t wait to play in a world that I know because I’m getting a bit tired of the American worlds lol
imagine how tired south americans are
@@h.f6364 well they got a world shame it wasn’t a liveable one but hopefully it would be cool to get a South American city world or something
Preach, so many american worlds. About time we got a british world!

I didn't know you were working on this secret project, but the second I saw the builds in the trailer my first thought was "Aden surely built for this pack, I have no doubt", but I could've swear the one with the modern extension was yours, still can't believe you didn't built it 😂 many congratulations, Aden, you deserve it and I'm so happy to see your talent is being recognised! Lots of love from Brazil
Lol same
OMG! I purposely did not purchase any game packs, nor played Sims4 all summer. I'm literally downloading everything, right now, because of you my dear. Can't wait to visit the pub! I'm so excited! Your builds are absolutely fabulous! Thank u so much, and by the way, I always saw you building for EA/Sims. I was wondering when they'd recognize the talent. The fact that this is an English style pack, I just adore it. Can't wait to play!
I’m so happy for you Aiden! You of all people deserved this opportunity and your builds look absolutely stunning!
3 years later and I'm just now discovering your channel and it makes perfect sense that my favorite 2 builds in this world are from you!!
I love these. I am primarily a builder but it's nice to have lots that don't need renovating or replacing. I could geek about the pub so much but I'll just say that it's perfect. And I'm in love with the flagstone in the farmhouse. I've never seen it look so good. You did an amazing job on these.
For your expertly ass with the details? I cant imagine how intensely you felt with all the limitations. Even if quite a bit gets taken off Im so proud of you for going for it, these feel so great. 🤗
This is the first video I've watched on this channel. The terrain painting here is absolutely perfect! I don't think anyone else includes this much detail.
Love the color choices, too. I'm very excited play in these builds!
Absolutely fabulous!!!
I'm so pleased The Sims Team asked you to do this. Just your cup of tea I imagine. You did a marvelous job.
I can't wait to play with this expansion pack. It looks so much fun!!!
Absolutely stunning! So glad you're getting recognised for your creativity Aden, you're such an amazing builder and as a fan of your rural english builds, this could not be a more perfect pack for you to be included in. Can't wait to play with your builds! 🧡
Aden has a very unique terrain painting style I’ve noticed, so much so that I saw simsies video first and I knew he’d made the Waltons by the garden layout and terrain paint style, like his signature, very here for it and pleased for our bumpkin for getting to work on such a fitting pack, 10/10 darling
Beautiful build! I love the 2 dining chairs against the wall in the dining room. So realistic! That takes me back to being in my grandparents house growing up. Always extra chairs nearby.
I have seen game play with your lovely pub that you made. It is fabulous! However, I have to save that I so much adore the large farmhouse. I love the colors that you used for the outside front of the house. Gorgeous! Congrats for being chosen to do the builds for the new Cottage Living Pack. Really, really love these builds!
I’m so excited for this new expansion pack! I’m also so very much happy that you were a part of it. Lovely builds, as always they surpassed my expectations. Sending love and hoping you’re having an amazing holiday.
Aiden, I’m so proud of you! I’ve been watching your videos for years, but i really started watching you religiously when the pandemic started and let me tell you, you have quickly become my favorite simmer! I’m so glad the sims team picked you for this pack!! Keep gracing the world with your sass my love, you nailed it!
Sooo exciting! Can’t wait to see your builds and hope you are enjoying your vacation!!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! (Screamed in gay) Both builds are incredible! I never take my sims to the bars in the game because let’s be real… why would I? But I will 100% be throwing events in your pub! Congratulations you absolute treat!
So proud of you Devon! You were the perfect person to help create Henford on Bagley!! I live in North Yorkshire so I can actually play my setting in game! Love love love !
CONGRATULATIONS! I'm excited to see your builds and to play this new expansion pack! The fact that you created the 64x64 lot and its a stunning build... MAGNIFIQUE!!!!
Congrats, I'm so glad you were chosen to build for this pack! Interesting seeing the reason behind the kitchen in the pub since that's not usually done in The Sims. I'd worry sims would keep cooking their own meals instead of ordering from the bar basically defeating the purpose of it, but I don't think that happened to me when I was playing? Good the realistic touch turned out well lol
I KNEW IT! I'm obsessed with your builds and haven't found one I don't enjoy yet, so when I saw the pub I was like "Did Devon do that?" This pack is quintessential you. Congratz!
Timothy could go to town on that landing! Gorgeous builds, I can’t wait to get this pack.
I'm so glad you got to build the pub! I've watched so many of your old builds where you do exactly this but making do with other objects...with this pack at hand it's just dialed the Britishness up to maximum!
Aden: “Mrs. Crumplebottom…. “
Me: *Buys*
Absolutely LOVE everything about this! You are amazing, Aden, and I will not be changing a single thing about either of your builds! That farm is my dream house! You have done such a wonderful job and I’m so happy for you ❤️
Absolutely Stunning!! I am so excited about your builds and this new pack! Sneaky, telling us all not to expect any videos from you this week. I have been going through withdrawals, miss your face! Have a great remainder of your vacay!!
Beautiful builds! Congrats on the opportunity. Well deserved. Thank you for all your hard work on these lovely builds.
These builds look amazing, as always! Congrats on making it in the game! I'm sure I speak for all your subscribers when I say we're proud and excited for you! 😊🎉
I've also been playing the Sims since the beginning and I remember when this pack came out thinking the build quality of the lots was on another level compared to previous packs (Realm of Magic lol), and just recently discovered your channel and am shocked and delighted to learn you built two of my favorite lots!! Belated congratulations, you did an amazing job!
Incredible builds Aden🤯so so stunning. Can’t wait to dive into this pack. You have such a remarkable talent.
Congratulations! As a fan of your builds I love that you had a part in this. I love visiting England and always wanted to visit Cotswold. Just beautiful. Thank you!
your comment about the pub toilets practically being in the underworld made me laugh so much. its so true, my dad and i go to a pub every now and again and if you need the toilet you've got to go down a creaky staircase, down a dark hallway and then through a trophy room lol!!
I only just discovered the Devon Bumpkin channel about 2 months ago and I love all your builds! So when I came across this video I am not surprised my favourite two builds in Cottage Living are yours! Watson Farm and Gnome's pub are both amazing and I use them both all the time in my game play.
I'm incredibly happy the sims team is continuing letting simmers make the builds for new packs, they are SO much more intricate and well-rounded than the builds in earlier packs! And choosing you for this specific pack was a match made in heaven 😍 I cannot wait for this pack to come out and to see everyone play around in your builds! This pack feels so well done, with a lot of new items and gameplay (compared to earlier expansion packs as well, I feel like), the sims really delivered with this one. Also POND TOOLS I'm so excited for it all
it makes me so happy how excited you are about your builds! i’ve been watching you for ages, and seeing you grow and end up building for a sims expansion pack is so amazing!! cannot wait to play with this pack
Your builds are so lovely, as they always are. Can not wait to see them in the pack, so happy you were chosen to help with it!
So proud of you mate! I KNEW that huge lot was yours while watching the livestream yesterday!! I clocked your terrain paint techniques.. LOL "Oh that's Devon the house down"
There is so much detail! I'm surprised you were able to keep all of it (so far)! Beautiful builds! Can't wait to purchase this one
Your style was recognised immediately, I have been playing for 21 years and only now have I been inspired to build more intricate and detailed lots. Your videos are inspirational and fabulous Darrrrlinggg!
The Watson family farm is so gorgeous!! The interior is so soft and warm and beautifully decorated, it looks like a dream.
I'm so very happy for you! Congratulations on being one of the builders on this new expansion pack. Your builds are always amazing! I can't wait to play in this expansion. I'm for it to :-)
IM SO BLOODY PROUD OF YOU!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Your builds look AMAZING! I just had this feeling that you were working with the sims team with all the Mondays off for the ‘project you’re working on’ ! I’m so glad you could be a part of the sims!!! ❤️xxxx
You and your builds are amazing. I especially love the Watson Farmhouse. Of course, you would get asked to participating builds for Cottage Living--I can think of no simmer more suitable than you: the color palette, the whimsical charm, the detail. Congratulations (but you totally deserved this opo!)
