So glad they went with the Victorian style! It’s is historically accurate, due to the fact that Strangerville was a boom town. During the 1800s with the move west, these towns popped up all along the way when Gold was found. People built homes in the way which they were being built back east, since it was mainly European or African Americans emigrating west. Oasis Springs is more of a California or New Mexico feel to it, whereas this one is like an old Californian or Arizonan boom town. I adore it! Totally getting this pack.
Victorian style is very consistent with the country western towns of the Southwest, which is the inspiration behind this pack. Most of the towns were founded during the Victorian era, so the architecture is Victorian. I love your videos so much!
Hi! Just popping in to say that the Victorian style is actually incredibly accurate. In the US most small towns are left over from westward expansion before there were large cities west of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. Westward expansion started around 1840, but really hit it's stride 1850-1870. Therefore they were almost all built in the Victorian era. I think Strangerville is supposed to be a dying boom town aka one that thrived during westward expansion and slowly declined after. Just something to keep in mind when doing your save file!
OH MY GOSH !!! the reminds me of sims 2 nitendo DS (idk if anyone else played that game) like the dessert vibes and the conspiracy behind of strangerville AHHH cant wait to get this
It definitely looks a lot like Arizona. I took a road trip across the US last year and this really reminds me of Mt. Zion in Utah as well. I highly recommend googling it and if you can visiting at some point. It was like being on a different planet.
So neat looking! I love the look of those houses, they're very pretty. I can't wait to get this pack.. I was looking to see where I can put Fox and Dana to live. I've already created them just waiting to plop them into the world and devulge into the strange and unusual!
The buildings are so cute with shops lining the road. I wish a few of those could’ve been rabbit holes to make them a little bit more than set dressing.
i’m excited about this pack! i am sad those RVs are decor. I was really hoping we’d have them in build/buy and they’d work like tents do. but overall, the world is nice! we have nothing like it. also, please tell me who’s decorating these houses at EA. 😂
Covfefe Hamberder i can agree. i appreciate the packs and the work put in them, but some things are just eh. regardless i’m excited. but really, who’s designing these homes?! someone hire me to just build homes for the worlds. 😂
audri rae i seen lilsimsies video! that was kinda annoying. i understand we’re gonna replace them ourselves, but to just copy a house and change a few things? ain’t here for it!
audri rae it’s not that big of a deal for me because even if they did build a new home, i would of deleted it anyway. i always replace their builds just because they’re not good. not bashing them, but they really need to hire new people to build homes for their game.
I assume the houses are Victorian style bc the town is based on an old mining town. Bc they were settled by white people moving West and not a Mexican native towns/ranches they didnt do adobe style buildings.
I feel the inspiration from Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico, more specifically Roswell New Mexico where a lot of alien activity has been recored before, and Area 51 in Nevada where a "secret" lab is supposed to be there, I believe that's where they got the inspiration for this game and the past sims 2 strangetown since it's also desertic vibes
The world is actually BEAUTIFUL 😍 You are so lucky to play in it early! 😎 Congrats with your first early access. I can't wait to get mine game pack tommorow as a regular civilian 😂
I always make Victorian houses and there are never any windows that really work, so I'm so excited for this update solely for those gothic arched windows
When ur professors don’t assign any homework so u finally have a free weekend to play sims and then you get a concussion and can’t play video games.... looks like I’ll be enjoying this pack in about 4-6 weeks 🙃🙃🙃
UGH I NEED IT. Every time EA puts out a new pack I tell myself it’s inconsequential and I don’t need it but then I CAVE. This has the look I wanted Del Sol Valley to have 😭 I neeeeeed houses are a little barren I would love to renovate them
here in arizona we have a smatter of victorian houses here and there. i like to think that people here got word that the same people we were at war with a hundred years prior has cool pointy houses that looked fancy and so they built said smatter of victorian houses.
i wasnt too into this pack until i saw this video !! it gives me x files vibes :,) like in the first two seasons when mulder was in the red canyon or whatever lmaoo
Just popping in to say that the library is critical for the story gameplay. It’s where the scientists hang out i it’s important you y’all to them for the gameplay. But if you could renovate it that would be Awesome!!!
they really didn't take much time with furnishing the houses and they reused a base game house too, I think after i fix the world then it might be better coz the overlook of the whole world looks good.
How does she do that thing where she kind of 'walks' around the town through all the houses. It looks like a first person pov type thing. Does anyone know how to do that?

Emily B Totally was also going to say this thanks for being on top of it 👌🏻 I’m personally living for this American gothic western realness
We're did you get thi information boy that's science
I was about to say that this looks a lot like the small towns around my area😂 trailer houses and everything!
Plumbella is right; those rock formations are absolutely GORGEOUS! The color is so warm.
the only strangerville review i trust 100% 😋
**lilsimsie entered the chat**
7:50 the position of the tv really bothers me lol
Its like the person positioned it that way to they could lean over and watch it from the toilet with the bathroom door open. lol :p
I feel like it’s intentional for that kinda “strange” look
@@MarinaAndTheDevil AYYYYYY!!!
OH MY GOSH !!! the reminds me of sims 2 nitendo DS (idk if anyone else played that game) like the dessert vibes and the conspiracy behind of strangerville AHHH cant wait to get this
also i hope you’re doing a LP on this - id love to see that
“Gonna be me at my graduation”- if only she knew
Better than Del sol valley tbf 😂
That's not hard tho 😂
Whats not
trash human to have a town better than Del sol valley.
theres barley any houses in del sol valley
scranticity exactly 😂Xx
My TH-cam sub feed is gonna BREAK TODAY 😂
Hahaha me too 😂
mine already has :)
watching this in 2020, when she points to the hazmat suit and says "that's gonna be me at my graduation" feels very weirdly accurate.
It definitely looks a lot like Arizona. I took a road trip across the US last year and this really reminds me of Mt. Zion in Utah as well. I highly recommend googling it and if you can visiting at some point. It was like being on a different planet.
OMG I LOVE YOUR VIDS AND AM SO GLAD YOUR NOW A GAME CHANGER

Seeing you so excited about getting your first early access was very adorable, and you're excitement is contagious!!
The buildings are so cute with shops lining the road. I wish a few of those could’ve been rabbit holes to make them a little bit more than set dressing.
soo.. from what i gathered jesse will be making a LP about the carpet choice mystery
It reminds me of some areas in Australia, I’m so happy that I can finally play in a world that feels similar to my country!

there's a starter home that is actually a carbon copy of a base game home... EA sucks at their job
audri rae i seen lilsimsies video! that was kinda annoying. i understand we’re gonna replace them ourselves, but to just copy a house and change a few things? ain’t here for it!
@@sadgirlchanel. ikk im soso disappointed with this that it's not even worth the money for me! ugh waiting for the day EA comes out with a good pack

ahhhhh i cannot believe this!!! so happy you're a game changer
I’m only about 3 minutes in and I regret watching this because now I’m 10x more excited than before
YOUR MY FAVORITE SIMS TH-camR THANKS FOR THIS VID
I am so happy that u get a early release that am tearing up❤️❤️
I always make Victorian houses and there are never any windows that really work, so I'm so excited for this update solely for those gothic arched windows
Wow, a lot of the houses on the outside are absolutely gorgeous. I don’t know what I was expecting but wow. And yes the grand canyon is in AZ.
I live in AZ and you’re exactly right about it looking similar! The red rocks look exactly like Sedona!
When ur professors don’t assign any homework so u finally have a free weekend to play sims and then you get a concussion and can’t play video games.... looks like I’ll be enjoying this pack in about 4-6 weeks 🙃🙃🙃
all the orange and giant rock structures are giving me major sims 2 nintendo ds vibes
it’s like the sims ds game from years ago, where you had to find the rods at the end 🤣
2 videos... in 2 days... we have been blessed.
how is her internet so good it always takes me hours to install new expansion and game packs p.s: love you queen
UGH I NEED IT. Every time EA puts out a new pack I tell myself it’s inconsequential and I don’t need it but then I CAVE. This has the look I wanted Del Sol Valley to have 😭 I neeeeeed houses are a little barren I would love to renovate them
Omg a fake train set at a fake train station which doubles as a little cafe! That'd be so cute!
Idc what plum says the houses look great its different from the other houses
they literally reused a base game house.... how does that look different from other houses?
shelby dalbec like she said it’s a bit Victorian
Omg I've been waiting for this video to go up!!! Yay I love your channel so much 💓💓💓
here in arizona we have a smatter of victorian houses here and there. i like to think that people here got word that the same people we were at war with a hundred years prior has cool pointy houses that looked fancy and so they built said smatter of victorian houses.
You are seriously my favorite person in the world
I love how the lab is in an octagonal shape. It reminds me of a bee hive (even though hives are made with hexagons)
I am actually so excited for strangerville, definitely picking it up! Thanks for the video !!
Omg I love the way the world looks! I’m so sad I play console and won’t have it for awhile.
Haven't been so excited for a pack since Seasons. For a GP, this is incredible.
you are the best sim youtuber :)
That big house is beautiful
After seeing those locations ... we'll all be needing your renovations when we get the Game Pack for ourselves.
Why are some of the sims faces blurred?
_ k_ay_lee I think that it’s because she blurred out her email in the beginning and she didn’t take the blur away for a bit
so you do not jinx them
I wasn’t too excited for the pack until I saw the world but wow I’m actual buzzing now I’ll be buying it straight away!!!
I can’t watch the LPs so I don’t get spoiled, but I’m living off of world, CAS and build/buy reviews. Thank you for feeding my addiction 😂
This is a game pack for only £15, the sims team did a great job!!! They really made this pack so good, the world is amazing 😮
Does the lab in the crater remind anyone else of Dusty divot?
"dont TOUCH me peasants" oml I'm dead
finding it hard to watch your video purely because of the camera feel quite motion sick but i appreciate the effort you put into it
Stares at my second favourite world:
Ahhh, that fresh
Mother Plant air
How do you navigate through the town like this? Is it a mod, keyboard shortcut, etc?
The sim you made is Leslie Wheeler... Nancy Wheeler from Stranger Things... Strangerville...
i wasnt too into this pack until i saw this video !! it gives me x files vibes :,) like in the first two seasons when mulder was in the red canyon or whatever lmaoo

I love your videos so much queen!!
Woo! Happy first press release!
Christ Ikea really need to do a collaboration with EA. They might even be able to fix EA's inability to decorate houses then.
This is one of the best worlds so far
I love the town
they really didn't take much time with furnishing the houses and they reused a base game house too, I think after i fix the world then it might be better coz the overlook of the whole world looks good.
I'm surprised! It's a really pretty world!
I was in the shower when you posting and i just suddenly got spammed with videos lol
Feels like their making smaller and smaller worlds with less lots☹️❤️
Yes, the Grand Canyon is in Arizona
How does she do that thing where she kind of 'walks' around the town through all the houses. It looks like a first person pov type thing. Does anyone know how to do that?
Is there any new clothing
Can you tell me the lot sizes I can't tell from the video
How can you see inside all the houses like that!??
I think they did the “Victorian style” because it is supposed to be like a western vibe
I clicked on this video and instantly got 4 notifications afterwards about this pack 😂
lol i love how the name of the lab was blurred and you just named the name😂
I’m from Scotland But I lived in Arizona for awhile so I can confirm it looks a lot like that!
Victorian Styles are very South Western USA. It was the later explored and developed part of the USA. The NE is very old and more colonial places.
"dont tooch me peasants" hahahah l
00:00-1:30 she is so excited
One fact: Del Sol is Spanish for "sun". You're welcome. :)
And The Grand Canyon is located in Northwestern Arizona. You are correct Plumbella.
Is the crashed plane a residential lot?
Does anyone know what kind of style of those house are at 7:26??
victorian I guess
Getting Sharp Objects vibes from these homes
how is she going through the world like this in first person? can someone tell me the controls?
We happy few - sims edition
Why did you blur out some people on the bit where you downloaded it
Why were two of the sims heads blurred when she was downloading it?
How did u get ur lighting like that?
1:29 that is in fact happening right now 😂
They reused a base game house 😪😒
I am so exited because it comes out on my birthday OMG!!!!!!!!
Lottie Dodge luckyyyy
Love this
What did you mean about the sims file? Couldn’t you just save it like regularly?
da f*Ck with that fast internet? omg. lol.jpg (0:17)
Hey guys so what type of pack is this? eg: game pack, expansion pack??
Nic Louise game pack
@@fake.it.flowers Thank you so much
That sweet dab 😍
The reason why the houses look kinda empty and as if some things were missing has to do with the storyline
You are the best
Why are the sims blurted out.
