From the looks of it, I think this is going to be EA’s first well rounded pack. Don’t know all the specifics but the fact they got people who love the game to influence and got to *build* for the pack shows a lot. This is good!
(This comment is not about your comment its my question)
Wasn't there split level inside homes before, why is she saying tht we are excited finally at the starting
@@PYOSOAH players were able to make 'fake' split levels, but they didn't always work and were very hard to work with, but now they will actually be a build feature in the game
I don't think I'll buy it but I'll go to town with the split level update
I mean they’ve done it before.... you know that crane house in eco living? Apparently Simproved built it
@@lizzycrawford3286 Now I know why that lot looks so good compared to the other lots lol
They finally hired SIMS CREATORS TO BUILD THEIR LOTS AHHHHHH!!!!
I know ahh!!
So rad!!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
did they have any restrictions when they build the houses?
@@GiannisSar I think they can't use bb.moveobjects, ALT key, resizing objects, etc. So yeah, restriction. They also cannot use any other pack except Base Game and Snowy Escape.
EDIT: Looks like it is allowed to use bb.moveobjects
About damn time!! 🥳
Kayla said that they had an item limit but that it wasn't that bad
As someone whos traveled to Japan many times i can say you did well with the Onsen, the only thing I'd change is that you didnt do a split level in the entrance, When entering an onsen you'll first be at the front desk but before fully entering you will always switch from your outdoor shoes to a pair of slippers . Seeing a split level in an entrance way is how to tell if you need to remove your shoes or not in Japanese Buildings.
I'm confused why they chose all white people for these builds. Of course, they can build based on another culture, but it's obvious they aren't super familiar with the style, and it makes me wonder why the sims team didn't reach out to Japanese simmers, or at least simmers from different countries of Japanese culture
@@AmericanAussie1 Are there influential Japanese simmers? I'm not in that side of YT so I don't know
@@AmericanAussie1 I was saying the same thing they should have gotten asian/japanese simmers to work on these builds but these four simmers are more popular hence why they are all white. Plus they give many opportunities to them, hopefully next time they pick other simmers.
@@AmericanAussie1 I think they simply wanted people with big names to say hey look we had all of these creators that you all know and love working with us. I think regardless, the simmers did a really good job and that should not go unappreciated. Also I think they wanted to reach out to Game Changers first since obviously they know they won’t leak anything (at least not on purpose) and they have contracts with them.
@@Schaemia I don't know of any either, which is why this would have been an amazing opportunity to give smaller creators of colour exposure through a great platform.
Gah YOU DID such a wonderful job! This is so amazing that they partnered up with players to build the lots for them. To be honest it made SUCH A DIFFERENCE haha!
@XUrbanSimsX I agree with you also love yours and Delis vids ❤️❤️❤️
I love how whenever anyone says James' name they say James Turner(previous ly known as the sim supply)
Literally all simmers say that
And we thank Steph0sims for that
It should really be "The artist formerly known as Sim Supply" xD
I have to call him JamesTurnerYT (or, honestly, SimSupply still) because of James Turner from LoadingReadyRun, lol.
He'll always be thesimsupply
I knew you wouldn’t disappoint us with your building and decorating skills. Looks lovely 🥰
I'M SO HYPED!!!!
Btw hi Pixelade :)
Oh hello there
@@Toadette- 👋🏼🥰🥰
❤️❤️
I was just thinking of you and you're showing right afterwards.. I can smell new videos coming soon (again), not that I hate it.. 👀 we'll never want to bulldoze those new buildings in the new world of Mt. Komorebi after seeing this (and James')
"You can't put down too many items in a build so it's playable on all computers"
*My 8 year old laptop after I place one item:* BRRRRRRRRRR
Your mistake is that you bought a Mac 😂
My mac would explode
Duly noted. Don’t buy Mac. What model is that?
Sigh. I play Sims 4 on a FIVE YEAR OLD MAC. My graphics are set to Ultra. The game runs smoothly. I have a TON of CC and I use mods. I WISH people would STOP giving ALL MACS a bad name just because they chose a machine with low end specs to try to play Sims 4 or whatever game on it. It's NOT ABOUT THE BRAND. Low end PCs run Sims 4 just as crappy as low end Macs. If you have recommended or better specs, no matter what brand your computer is, you'll have a much more enjoyable experience. Just sayin'.
SAME
Me looking at the designs yesterday: Wow, EA stepped up their game!
*Simmers post videos*
Me: Ah, that explains everything
Lol ikr
Yeah basically lol. I got the pack a or two ago and was living in one of the houses Kayla built before I learned the truth and was immediately put off by how many skill building items there were and how normal the house was for a starter.
Wait so you’re telling me SIMS CAN HAVE A VACATIONHOME NEXT TO THEIR OWN HOME?!?! No way that’s what i wanted for so long! Especially with the beautiful Sulani❤️
It will be avaible for all worlds with the Update
@@sweetForgiveness Wait Can i move to the vacation worlds or will they stay same?
@@elisasgamechannel1177 Okey Thanks for answering :D
I can live my new yorker dreams of living in san mushino but buying a vacation house at brindleton bay
I have a mod which means you can live in Sulani and the Outdoor retreat world, I can link it if anyone’s interested 😋
I love how much of the Japanese culture was included in this pack and I hope in future packs, the sims add other cultures and destinations, which would add diversity to the game. They could start by expanding the whole heritage month aspect that they added and could add cultures that include South Asian and European cultures
I’m just getting an uneasy vibe how 4 non Asian simmers were tasked to create the entire architectural representation of this culture. They should have included someone like Freezerbunny, yes less reach but at least one Asian English speaking build simmer should have been mandatory. But it goes to show that we have a long way to go with true diversity in the workplace. I’m sure the Sims team is also majority white otherwise they would have seen this issue ahead of time. This isn’t personal against the simmers choses of course. I don’t fault them for accepting and see they tried hard. But as a Japanese knowing someone build an Onsen, so important to my culture, who has never even heard of it before wouldn’t sit right with me at all. Seems Asian people are getting passed over just like PoC were with skintones for a long time
@@melz6625 oh hey someone with this complaint was actually able to name a suitable replacement for the other Simmer's unlike the other comments I've seen that don't even try and thanks for the new TH-camr to check out as well
@@melz6625 I was feeling the same! I didn't know Simlicy actually so I went to look if she was white, too. Bit of a missed opportunity it seems
@@melz6625 definitely a missed opportunity, but I appreciate how much effort Deli and the others put into getting this to look actually GOOD rather then EA making it. Let's be honest, if EA made it they'd somehow forgot Japan existed and halfway through build an American suburb... While I'd love more representation I do love this effort 👍🏽
i would love for an Italian inspired pack. They did such a good job with Monte Vista in TS3, i cannot even imagine how gorgeous something like that would be in TS4.
THIS IS WHAT WE WANTED!! Quality simple builds that come with a pack with which we can decorate and make homey how we see fit, we shouldn’t have to rely on the redo’s from the gallery! FINALLY
Well I saw the James Starter home and that needs some changes. Maybe make it more black and have Grass.
Hi Deli! I have to be honest for a second: as an Asian American simmer who is very fond of Japanese culture, traditional and modern, I was a little concerned when I realized they had asked four non-Asian simmers to help build for this pack. BUT especially after watching this video I am actually very grateful they chose four of the BEST sims builders in the community, and I know it must have been challenging for you all who didn’t have preexisting knowledge of Japanese architecture, along with the restrictions. The lots look lovely and I am very happy EA chose you to help showcase! I’m looking forward to owning the pack. You must be so proud to be such a big part of the game after playing it for so long, and I’m so happy for you. :)
They aren't really the best. James Turner and Lilsimsie mostly only can build in their styles of white/black pseudo modern blocks and blue suburbans. No thank you, give me XFreezerBunnyX and Mirarae instead.
Best builders ??? No way. Simlicy is the only one of the bunch who is known for her builds. The rest are more popular for gameplay. What about freezer bunny, harriet or devon bumpkin? They actually make incredible builds and already have experience w/ japanese builds as well because they have a passion for architecture
@@tikusblue 😅 I apologize if i triggered anyone! but for your sake, i did intentionally say "four of the best," not "the four best," implying that i know that the community has many, many amazing builders, and i acknowledge that EA probably chose simmers who they had a longer working professional relationship with. i adore Harrie and FreezerBunny and wish with all my heart they get the same opportunities in the future. But if I were in charge, I would also personally choose simmers who were known equally for gameplay and building, simply for equal representation and marketing. Harrie and FreezerBunny (idk about devon?) have repeatedly emphasized they don't do a lot of gameplay. (that's why it also confused me when Simlicy was chosen, but I don't know her as well.) it's probably why Gucci went to partner with Harrie, since Gucci wanted to focus on their off the grid items, and Harrie and Grim were the best simmers to showcase that, given their reach and specialization. :) hope that helps you understand what i said!
@@mjm3091 You're entitled to your own opinion. ^_^ Also I agree, they aren't the best builders, because I said they were "four of the best," meaning they are some of many incredible builders within the community. I also adore FreezerBunny and had wished builders like him had a chance to represent Asian architecture, but you can see my reply to r m as to why i believe they chose other simmers instead. hope that helps! if anything, this should only be seen as encouraging because it sets a positive precedent for all future TS4 packs.
@@siliconvalleygirl6595 Oh sorry if I seemed offended, I really wasn't. I just don't agree at all that they're some of the best builders that's all! You're right too that maybe they wanted simmers who have gameplay experience. But honestly, I think they just hired simmers who had big audiences, and knew how to build. And disregarded anyone with a smaller audience which is a bit of a shame. Especially considering freezer bunny is such a talented builder, and has done multiple japanese style builds and is familiar with the culture.
I just smile at the idea that Deli and James got to do this and share this amazing process together❤️
They're lucky to be together.. ♥️
Sure they were grateful for the project during their very strict lockdown too!
James: I don't know how much I'm allowed to tell you, so I'm not going to talk about the items, we'll focus on the build.
Deli: I love this new table, we got new counters, we got...
😂😂
Can you imagine seeing your own build in an actual Sims trailer? OMG.
Disgusting
The first pack that doesn’t need renovation to play. So exciting.
Well. There's actually some which you could renovate. But the people who made the builds Renovated them themselves already because EA did em Dirty.
The little furs on the chairs and benches are SENDING ME OMGGGG I can't wait to create builds with these items 😩😍
Wait- a world where I’m not going to have to download everything off the gallery??
I feel that they should have chose Japanese simmers to build these but you did such a good job. You're builds are so close and beautiful. The reception desk should be on the lower spilt level (where you are still wearing your shoes) but other than that, they are great!
Just a note on the reception desk positioning; there are actually also many onsen which have a bit of distance between the entrance and the reception desk (instead the entrance will be adjacent to shoe lockers so you can put your shoes away first) so in that sense the setup she's chosen works just fine too ☺️
Has been great to see the amount of research they put into working on less familiar topic matter 📖
@@KorosukeM Agreed. They might have not been Asian and lived in japan, but they bothered on researching. They tried their best to make it as authentic as they can with the knowledge they could gather which makes me really happy!
Deli you don’t even understand how excited I am! I live in Japan and when I saw the trailer and your trailer recap, I was so impressed with the look of the onsen that I went ahead and pre-ordered snowy escape! I never pre-order anything! I’ve been playing the sims since the sims1 first came out and you’re my FAV SimsTuber and now finding out that YOU build the onsen it’s like 3 worlds colliding! I can’t wait till this pack is out!! And also. When the world is back open and Japan allows tourist back in, definitely visit Japan!! Otsukaresamadeshita or ‘thank you for your hard work’.
After 6 years of sims 4 we finally got the content creator's coop that they and we deserved!
I'm very proud of deli and all the other creators. Now i could say that this is a pack worth buying *.*
I had a feeling that this is what the surprise was! It's going to be so amazing to have all my favorite simmer's builds in one world!
I live in Japan and I really like Deli's Onsen, too!! It does remind me of those I've been to before, (just much fancier haha). I'm especially in love with the exterior of the Onsen though!! Good work!
Don’t get me wrong, I’m very very chuffed for Deli, James etc getting the opportunity to work with EA and build these lots. But surely there could have been some Japanese simmers they could have approached??
yes!!! was looking for other comments about this. Happy for our peeps, obvi, I've been subbed to them for ages, but this to me is just another tick in the "EA doesn't actually care about diversity" column
Name the Japanese simmer that you known?
I was actually very nervous going into this video because of the possibility that the builds wouldn't be very Japanese. I think Deli did a great job with the modern/Japanese fusion, it was a very smart choice, but I understand why nobody wanted to build the onsen. Of all the lots on the map, that one had to be the most accurate to the Japanese culture. I worried it wouldn't look right. Though I think it looks pretty good, I wonder what Japanese players think about it.
ikr, and i feel like they at least could've had some Japanese people (don't have to be simmers) collaborate with each youtuber and tell them whats wrong and whats right so we could get more accurate builds
Freezerbunny made a couple of Japanese houses (modern and traditional). He's not Japanese (though he's Asian) but his take on those builds are amazing. He's also an architect IRL from what I've heard. You should check them out.
Thank God! Finally I won't have to bulldoze every lot the moment I start up the game. xD
Lmaoo
@google / you tube to re-do them.
I do the same, but with Sims.
No wonder the pack is so good.
This is AMAZING!! I went to a onsen in Japan two years ago and this looks soooo much like it did!! The showers are on point! Totally takes me back.
It is so great that you got this opportunity. That must be so exciting for u! Congrats🥳!
I'm so hyped that now we can TAKE OFF OUR SHOES 😩😭💕✨
Deli I lived in Japan for four years and I must say, you killed it!! It's so spectacular and elegant! I wouldn't expect anything less from you!
I love that shower, we also have ones like that in Korea--I feel like I can finally build my own apartment. I really wish they would have gotten somebody who'd lived in Japan or had Japanese heritage to do some of the lots though, including the Onsen.
I totally agree. Having a simmer from/in Japan would have added a bit more authenticity.
After living in korea and visiting japan a few times, I'm geeked I'll be able to build my old apartment or houses I've been in.
preach
I said this on Lil Simsie’s video too, but I really hope they compensated you all for your work. It’s starting to feel like EA did this for the free labor and I really hope that’s not the case!!
Okay thank you. I'm like "but did they get paid??"
@@kdhoop That's the first thing I thought aswell. I really hope they got paid.
@@kdhoop like it’s cool and all, but I just can’t not think about the fact that EA probably didn’t pay them for all their work. Seems like something EA would do...
@@def6415 me too, they put so much work into these builds!
I’m watching the following: Deli, then simsie, then Simlicy, than James XD
Same but i watched James first and he told to look at Deli😄
You’ve read my mind with the order I’m watching 😂
I'm watching in the following order: Lilsimsie, Deligracy, James Turner, Simlicy.
@@kschuller5651 me too!
I watched James then Deli 😅
These builds are all beautiful! Congratulations on such a huge achievement!
Can we take a moment to appreciate the wood texture on the new wallpaper? I'm in love! 😍
Deli, I am very happy with this. Considering everything you were asked to do, this is really close to the real deal - especially the onsen. Again it’s a game so it doesn’t have to be 100 % alike. The designs are beautiful, and you remembered to put the toilet separately in the main bathroom of the vacation lot (I’m pretty sure I wrote a comment on that to a completely unrelated video, not sure if you knew because of that - either way I’d like to think I had something to do with it 😉). The only thing I would add, is probably a shoe rack/shoe closet at each entrance, but maybe you weren’t even aware that taking shoes off was gonna be part of this pack when you build these lots?
But all in all you did so well 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥒🥒🥒
Wow you did an amazing job, Deli! Can't wait to play on the lots you built
Omg!!! Yes!! I'm so happy for you that you got to do this!
I keep having to pause the video because my dog keeps putting his paw over my phone 😂
He doesn't care who Deli is. What she's doing. He letting me know he's supposed to be the most important thing in my life 😂
Deli the onsen is BEAUTIFUL! I love soaking in onsens when I am traveling in Japan and can't wait to have them in the Sims :D
These literally took my breath away!! Well done! How you withstood the pressure I can’t imagine. Very lovely and the colors schemes. Brilliant of Sims for having you do these designs. Thank you!
This is so exciting, I'm so happy for you!! These builds are so gorgeous!!
I love this! OMG how exciting! :) I am so happy and also proud of you for being part of the development of this pack! So many of us love your builds and to have them come in the game, to begin with is a bonus! :) So happy!
Yep you have outdone yourself. Lots are simple yet detailed and fit the world very well. Im glad EA asked simmers to create the lots and I hope this will happen again
The view upstairs at the onsen reminded me of a beautiful memory I forgot I had while visiting the Grand Tetons one winter. Love the build! Thank you for reminding me, it made my day ❤️
You did such an amazing job deli!! You killed it!! I can't wait to play and it's gonna be a so nice to just make my Sims and start playing and not worry about the builds!!
Yoooo this is so good!!!! Deli you did amazing! I live in Tokyo and I can see you and the team took a lot of care to make sure that you did your best to represent a Japan-inspired locale. Fantastic work. The onsen looks like one I’ve been to IRL!
Beautiful work Deli, yours are my absolute fave😉👍🏾
This is so exciting, Deli! All builds are beautiful! I'm so happy for you that you got to have such a big part in this new pack!
I'm so excited for this pack. The objects are all gorgeous, the world is huge, the builds were built by people who are the audience. I'm a bit disappointed that they removed shrines rather than giving them a toggle but I think this is shaping up to be my favorite pack
Fyi, the shrines are still there. They simply removed the animation for bowing in front of the shrine.
Same here, I wish they added a toggle in the settings! Which is a really minor thing to do for the game, but it sounds like it would be a meaningful option to include all players.
A lot of players in Japan dropped EA because of the change they did do. If they offered a toggle it would have been more accurate and appropriate and could have solved some of the problems for the Korean players. As it is now, the Sim looks at the shrine as if they are unsure what it is, as if it was a weird piece of art. Thus, the interaction is offensive. At the very least, if Sims had their arms down it would be normal and appropriate.
Wow looks amazing! So pleased to see they’re finally letting creators in on game builds. It’s going to make everything a lot more player based and interesting
I love them!! You did an amazing job and I can't wait to get this!!! ❤❤❤
I hope they enlist you guys from now on to do the builds..it makes a huge difference and we all appreciate the worlds so much more. 😊
I’m so happy and proud of you guys! You’re all so talented! And the builds looks simply amazing, I loved every single one of them. Can’t wait for my sims to hang out in that beautiful park!
Loving this!! And the tea looks delicious 🥰✨
Yay Deli! Your builds are awesome so this makes a lot of sense. :)
The living room and outdoor area of the vacation home are so lovely looking. Also love the use of two paintcolors in non-traditional areas of the walls in the kids room - definitely a nice way to make it a little more childlike without a bunch of extra clutter items and hangings
I love your builds deli 💜love how they let you amazing content creators be apart of it looks like an amazing pack. Proud of you 😊
OMG! SPLIT LEVEL! AAAAHHHH!!!!!
I'm so excited! Yes I freaked out! I saw it right before she said anything about it lol screamed and my husband jumped. Then I had to rewind because I wasn't listening after that lol. I'm so excited. I can finally build all my children childhood homes a little more accurately. I can't wait!🤩🤩🤩
IM SERIOUSLY THINKING OF GETTING IT JUST FOR THE SPLIT LEVEL AHH
Wow, it's stunning! You're such a great builder!
Might I say, I’m super proud of you and all the other sims creators 🥰 I’ve been subscribed to your channel for so many years and I’ve watched you grow as a creator and I’m just super excited to see yOUR builds in a sims pack. Well done deli and to the other creators 💗🙌🙌
This is absolutely beautiful! Deli, you are so talented. Can’t wait for the new pack to come out.
Im really happy for everyone involved in this and I LOVE having actual good lots coming with the new pack, but I really wish that they had reached out to at least one actual japanese simmer to build their japanese world.
Can you name one japanese simmer that you known?
I wish EA reached out to Freezerbunny. He made a couple of Japanese houses before.
god i'm hella excited about the builds being built by simmers, finally amazing looking starter homes!!
OH MY GOSH LOVE ALL OF THE LITTLE DETAILS! From the gradual fade of the snow on the roofs to the veins of the the wood textured wallpaper all around the walls! I’m excited, I am actually excited! Guess I know what I am getting myself for Christmas
Absolutely love your builds! They are all so beautiful and functional for gameplay! So happy for you that you got to do this!
Deli, the Onsen looks gorgeous!! I’m so proud of you, that must have been so intimidating to build, but it looks absolutely beautiful in the trailer and everything, great job with it ❤️❤️
Deli: Says house can't have too many wallpapers
House: Has like a million wallpapers
Love the builds, Deli!! You did amazing! I can't wait for the game and I'm thrilled that they used our favorite streamers to help build this pack.
Deli, I'm so proud of you for getting this oportunity! You absolutely deserve it and your builds are STUNNING! You did an awesome job 💖💖💖
WOOO TEA SPILLING! How exciting 😍
The content feels a lot more culturally appropriate than City Living did. So cool
The color tones that you used in your builds are so beautiful, really never thought I'd see homes in the sims that aren't cc that reflect my favorite style and color palette, so thank you so much!
The builds look awesome. You did a great job with the onsen. I'm really happy you got the chance to have your builds in the official game, you deserve it.. can't wait to actually play with them😍
I am happy for you and the other TH-camrs for getting to create for the game. I do kinda wish they went for at least one or two Japanese and other Asian TH-camrs to make something for this pack. TBH I've never even heard of Simlicy before so...yea...EA/xis always drops the ball on something or another.
Yay that means they will actually be really pretty
Yes
Why do you doubt your self all your builds are amazing and these are no exceptions
I am in love with the build items for this pack! Congrats to you, James, Simlicy, and lilsimsie!
I haven’t been this early since pools were added
"No one wanted to do it" "I didn't know what an onsen was" "I needed a lot of help with the style"
Why did the sims team pick these simmers, obviously of no Japanese background or knowledge of the culture, to do these traditional builds? Just because they are very influential in the community? Why not pick lesser-known simmers who are from Japan/are Japanese? They would get some great exposure, and teach the community about their culture in a cool way.
It makes me feel as if the sims let simmers (game changers) create these builds bc they knew a lot of the community would feel more favourably toward this pack if their fave million-subscriber influencer built the houses and lots. :/
Edit: I mean NO ill will toward Deli or the other builders, I think they are great builders and this was a fantastic opportunity they have dreamed of for awhile. i just couldn't help but think it would have been nice if the builds came from people who knew the culture well, and builders who could have discussed backstory or connections and experiences
I was waiting for this take. I love SimLicy, Simsie, and Deli, but the Sims team should have prioritised working with the many talented simmers more familiar with Japanese culture. We also need to ask why it is that the most popular and famous sim creators are all white. Is it an issue of biases in consumption? Is it an issue of access- both to the game and it's expansions due to cost and to video creation itself?
Agree with you that it would have been great to involve Japanese creators but I also understand from EA's POV. This is the first pack where they are involving Game Changers. Imagine if they picked little known creators, people would be pissed off the the bigger creators that have been a voice in the community for a long time were passed over.
Also while yes, they are bigger creators, I think the reason why they have a large audience is that their voices resonate with the Sim community.
Hopefully in the future with more packs, they will be able to involve more and more creators to make packs better for everyone.
yup. got the same vibe. Obviously no one is faulting the simmers for taking this opportunity but they should really have included Asian simmers. And if it was necessary that they were English speaking from the top of my head I’d name Freezerbunny who did amazing Asian builds before there were any items to do it easily. He does have less reach but having 4 non Asian let alone non Japanese simmers do the entirety of the architectural representation is not really how diversity in the workplace should be in 2020
@@eurydiceapologist Same I appreciate them, I think they are amazing builders and this was a great opportunity for them, I mean no ill will. Unfortunately the sims team seems to be relying very heavily on game changers to fix their reputation (and sales). (When i think this pack would likely not need the extra boost, the community was favourable toward mountains and snow activities and a Japanese-inspired world).
I think there is a similar bias in almost all game communities on youtube and twitch. Look at Minecraft YT, almost all of the million+ sub channels are white men. I have never seen a woman or man of colour have 10k+ views on twitch in the minecraft category. The majority of the viewers there are white girls. In the sims community, I feel there is more diversity in viewership, but likely skewed toward western girls.
It's not a bad thing to watch a creator because you find them attractive or are able to relate to them, but the viewership-skew does give these people a major advantage in the likelihood of becoming popular.
I think cost, being able to afford all the packs and access to a good mic and computer definitely plays a factor as well. Think about how many people gain followers and views from doing giveaways out of their own pocket.
@@AsnCanuck That is true, I didn't consider the fact that it might seem unfair to the simmers who have already put in so much time with EA and the packs. I think maybe it would have been better and seemingly fair if they had put out a contest or 'talent search' to recruit builders, though it might have spoiled the theme?
I really liked the way they did it in Sparkd where the winning team got to be involved in the pack in terms of build and family. It was cool to see how winning a contest for being great at building resulted in getting to do a pre-build.
As I said in James’s channel I’m so excited for this EP especially because my fave simmers made lots that we can use Yay I’m so excited and congrats to u as well! You did an awesome job!!
I'm so happy for all of you these builds all look amazing!! I bet your onsen is beautiful
they thought we didn't know this already XD
Damn that’s a nice mug, where do i get one
New kitchen counters!!! That fireplace! Finally a plain framed bed! Bonsais! Another...new toliet...? I'm usually not one super excited by the B&B items but I feel like a lot of this decor we have needed for ages! Lots of "clean" and "modern" furniture to use. Beyond excited for you to be a part of this pack, Deli! You did us proud.
It is one of the very few I never delete.
You did good, Deli...Thank you.
I’ve never been this early *uploaded 41 seconds ago*
I wonder why they didn’t get Japanese simmers for a Japanese build in a Japanese inspired world
Omg thank god someone else said it? I mean, I love deligracy and lilsimsie and all and I'm so happy that EA is branching out and getting the community involved BUT why.. not Japanese creators or at least someone from East Asia?
@@seazar5289 it would have been great the for inclusion and diversity. I do like how they are getting simmers to make the builds for the new world, but this could have been the perfect opportunity to get simmers who represent the world they are inspired by.... instead of the same folks
@@jLachelle3 Guess we're taking it one step at a time. Better that than nothing.. and I'm super excited for the skin colour and make up do-over, too! So they do seem to be listening, which is a good sign
Yes but are there many Japanese simmers that EA knows about, they can't exactly ou their trust in someone they've not seen many builds of. I do agree it would have been a great idea, but for now, this is the first time they're letting creators build lots in world so they are most likely to start off with people like deli and lilsimsie etc
@@melaniesefa9271 Tumblr there are some builders ...guess they are only picking folks from TH-cam
I love all the new items, this is my new favorite world! And I loved every lot you built, I'm really proud of you and can´t wait to have every wedding on the park you built :)
Yay beige & black & white. So exciting. Crazy radical design.
Deli, I can only imagine how challenging this was and how nerve wracking to share it with the public. (We can be intense) lol. I just wanted to say congrats! Each build you shared was so lovely, and honestly just increased my already high level of WANT for this pack. You guys did such a great job with the builds.
hiii! never been this early
You all did an amazing job! From what I've seen the build/buy alone is enough to make me want this pack. Everything is gorgeous!
Love the builds and so glad you are doing it with the sims can’t wait to play the expansion pack!

Please just stop. It’s not fun. It’s not nice. Self promo on other people’s channels just kind of suck.

You did a great job! So glad they had you and others work on these lots I can't wait!
I really love all your builds Deli! Awesome job on the Onsen!
So super happy at your involvement with this pack, but equally as disappointed by the handling of another culture. I'm surprised that you worked on the onsen for months but were so uncomfortable speaking about the tradition and cultural implications of public bathing in Japan. Most notably, the two doors with blue and red noren (the cloth dividers) typically identify the gender of the dressing area. In your build, both doors open to the same dressing area. Even the inclusion of the speaker just beside the hot spring is kind of counterintuitive to the intent of visiting: the observation and appreciation of nature.
It's clear that the Sims team did a decent amount of research to develop this pack and I just don't understand why they wouldn't share that with you so you could better represent something so important to Japanese culture. There are an infinite number of resources you could have looked into while working on this build or even before posting this video. If this were for your own gameplay, I wouldn't really expect you to fully understand all the objects included in the pack. However, this build will now be shipped with every copy of the game... and that's kind of a bummer.
I wish they'd gotten some Japanese or at least some East Asian simmers for the builds. I know why they didn't from a marketing perspective, but I feel like the representation of Japanese culture here is somewhat disappointing
They supposed to release this EP on Christmas and its almost Halloween so why not gave us somethin or any surprise lol...
Btw Love you Deliiiii💙💙💙
I thought they said November 13th or 15th?
@@nasirw6407 it did, it’s being released in November
@@nasirw6407 Its my opinion , they should released this on Christmas not on November , cause its also almost December right? So why not on that month, and wht they should focus on now is the update that they promise to all the simmers, so hope you understand wht I actually meant...If there's something I miss or mistaken pls correct me😊
Hi Deligracy! These are great creations and such a lovely presentation! We can sense your love for this game. I'm very happy that you could be a part of the new project. I'm crazy about your Osen and you kept it beautiful and immersive even with the restrictions (few objects for low end computers etc). It's really amazing and we can't wait to vist your lots! Thanks for your work and your positivity!
Very happy your dreams became a reality :)
You deserve it a thousand times!
I’ve watched all the videos for the lots now and this was such a needed move by the sims. You guys have put so much more life into the builds. I’m very excited for this pack now
