Thanks for watching! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and comment to let me know what you think! - เกม
There’s literally a relationship cheat. You’re telling me EA couldn’t enter a cheat to make the bffs best friends? Or make Bob and Elisa not get along? So stupid.
I know. It's just so crazy how little thought they put into it.
Sims 4 feels lazy because of that in my opinion. They couldn’t bother doing two or so clicks? Ugh.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS A HATE COMMENT TOWARD CINDY AND I WAS LIKE BRUH BUT THEN I READ IT
I think this was initially a mistake. When I made my own save file, I realized that changed relationships don’t transfer across the gallery, everyone just sets to the default. Either way, though, I wish it would be updated.
THIS. It's absolutely baffling how little they care about actually following through. It should take no more than 2-3 hours to fix the relationships, and I'm being generous here. Probably 1 hour tops. Because that's all they have to do. Nobody is asking them to change the Calientes or to make Bella more darkskinned. Just follow through with the family descriptions! It's literally just a relationship cheat.
i have NEVER wanted something so much in my life
I found the queen herself! Hope you're taking care of yourself hen, love ya
Haha I watch your videos, didn’t expect you in the comment section!!
OMG ITS PLUMBELLA! SHE'S HERE AAAAHH!
Mmmm my 2 favourite Sim-players interacting, nice👌
I don't even play the sims and I want them to fix the relationships in the sims 4, based on watching sims youtubers I can see how annoying it gets.
At least this franchise has dedicated people like you. The community is the only thing holding TS4 together at this point.
Agreed. It's sad but I'm trying my best with this game.
So true. I can't bring myself to play Sims 4, there is no gameplay for me
KawaiiStacie and Littlemssam's mods are literally what keeps me playing.
@@Mskittenlover12 Second that, plus MCCC
@@PleasantSims I'm not a stan of any one sim game. I love them all because I love the sims. While I do defend the sims 4 a lot due to, in my opinion, EA shooting out the game before it was ready, I feel bad for the people who worked on it. They did that only to have their work gutted at the last minute. It's not their fault EA made a corporate decision that possibly ruined their rep for good. I do defend the game because of that. That being said, I do see many problems with the game. This is addressing one of my biggest. I would be here to download if you chose to do this for the entire game. It's up to you and your decision but I wouldn't say no to a full save. It's a wonderful testament to our community that there are people who would be willing to do that for people who don't know how or have the time.
SIDE NOTE: I have been on their side where I have put in years of work only to be told that nothing I did would be used. I can feel their pain. I do get a little passioned when I speak about this subject.
RIP the Calienties. They're not dead but they might as well be after the Sims 4 got their hands on them.
Lol. I had to fix them because I couldn't stand it.
Ea did the calientes wrong they didn’t deserve this
Nina has always been my favorite sim. I might even play 4 again now that you have created this.
Nighat doesn’t exist because of EA’s censorship.
Brandon Austria-Llagas in my opinion they still could have worked her into the story a little bit like saying Katrina was her “nickname”
One sided relationships is something I've been begging for for 6 years. Just this one thing would add so much depth to the Sims 4 and maybe would let me play it longer than 20 minutes without getting bored,
I agree! I don't know why it isn't possible but it drives me crazy! It would add so much more to the stories.
Just create an alien and have him wipe your sim's memories. I had some evil fun with an entire neighborhood before using one alien 👽😈.

Maybe this mod could help🤗
I feel like more complex relationships is top of my series wish list! I want crushes, frenemies, I want my sims to be able to have affairs and for the relationship title to actually reflect that its an affair! Unrequited loves!
This is so true and something that is rarely talked about. One-sided relationships are *essential* in a life simulator.
The fans: What happened to Bella Goth? Why are the Calientes so different? Why isn't there any lore?
The sims 4 team: iT's aN aLtErNaTiVe uNiVeRsE
What a half-assed excuse to make families in the sims 4 look so terrible. There were so many families in sims franchise that deserved a place in sims 4 base game. The Newbie/broke, Pleasants, crumblebottom, bachelor(bella’s family) even the FRIOS were better than eliza and bob pancakes(god, i hate them)
heck i cant believe a whole-ass company is lazier than me and that says a LOT
Hell even with that it was lazy
Yes, its an excuse and not even a good one.
@@millyvice4423 And it's not even executed well, they're telling these characters have that but none of the relationships in the Live Mode show. They just leave it up to the player to take the description from there and that's unforgivably LAZY.
We might have terrible stories and family backrounds, but do you know what we have? STAR WARS.
We all asked for a Star Wars pack!
Aww yeah! Batuu!
In my game Bob’s failing marriage has driven him into the arms of Travis, who is gay and oblivious to Liberty and Summer’s crushes. It’s all drama in the suburbs.
oh in my game i think travis is gay too cause everytime he goes to my sims house hes always feeling flirty (cause my sim is male) so hes literally gay and likes my sim LMAO
Love it
@Turquoise Cheetah oh and btw im not a DUDE lol
@Turquoise Cheetah btw infact i think all three of them like my sim cause they always come over to my sims house and it's kinda annoying too lol
I ship it
Tfw I never knew that Summer and Liberty had feelings for Travis because they have literally no relationships with each other
that's why i ditch that storyline completely and make the girls get married 💅
@@ariooreo2294 Honestly that's a good idea
Handsome Squidward it's literally so fun like not only do i get the representation i want (i'm a lesbian djdjdjjd) but i can also do whatever i want with travis. want to give him a bf? hell yeah. gf? hell yeah. s/o? hell yeah. keep him single and vibe? hell! yeah!!
The entirety of the bff household is a reference to my fave childhood spin-off sims game, mysims kingdom. You had these exact characters and you as the player could end up deciding who travis chooses. Its sad that in the sims 4 no one cares for them because of how ea put them in the game (because same i never even entered their houselot)
It's actually a fun callback to MySims Kingdom: On the Academy Island, Liberty and Summer both have a crush on Travis, and you get to decide who ends up with Travis, while the other one ends up with Chaz McFreely 😊
Ea really did the bare minimum ☠
Also the lack of one-sided relationships is so disappointing
Agreed. It takes away so much potential for story-telling.
If only we got that instead of a Star Wars pack that no one really asked for
lαilα Exactly, it was just a cash grab...
I could do it with cheats
@@moonniieee what cheats?
FINALLY! Someone corrects Cassandra's skin color, like who was in charge of the Goth family and no one said anything at all about that?
TS4 is sooo bad with this overall! Bella and Cassandra were both made too pale, and the Caliente sisters too (looking at their TS2 family tree their heritage appears to be Spanish and Arabic, they are NOT pasty white ladies). Or when they added in Dirk Dreamer and made his skin lighter and his hair and eyes brown, whereas in TS2 he had the darkest skin tone, black hair and dark blue eyes. Way to only rely on name recognition and not even try to recreate the character...
DUDE, that was the first thing I did in my Pleasant Strangeville project
@@KreeZafi I still can’t believe what they done to Dirk Dreamer seriously... whitewashing tf outta him.
I've always believed that Jonny Zest is the Malcolm Landgraab from the Sims 3. He was always different from his mother, a strict business woman, and was closer to his father. So what I believe is after Malcolm "Jonny" refused to take on the family business, they, or Nancy, disowned him and had another son, the new Malcolm. Because think about it, if its the same family from the sims 3, why is Jonny older than Malcolm? Malcolm would have to be older, but he's a teen while Jonny is an young adult. And Malcolm was more like his dad and this new Malcolm is more like Nancy.
I love this theory
Ooooou
Ooh yes!!! And Jonny is only his stage name... naming their 2nd kid the same to replace him definitely seems like something a Landgraab would do
But Malcolm exists in the game,my sim is married to his father (cause she was after the $$) and now he lives with his mother who is always mad btw.
I have another variation of this theory: Johnny Zest is indeed Malcolm Landgraab, but the Malcolm Landgraab living with the family now is an impostor! He's not even related to them (hence why he's got that nasty yellow hair, he's not a natural blond so it's a bad bleach job), Nancy and Geoffrey got "fake Malcolm" to play the role of their son to cover up that they disowned their real son because they're embarrassed of him and wanted to save face by having a son they could be proud of to inherit the family wealth. "Fake Malcolm" is a snob, evil and dastardly - he has the right personality to take over the family business as a ruthless wealthy land-grabbing mogul.
Calientes are actually my biggest pet peeve in ts4. From their look to their characteristic, EA totally screwed them up. And Katrina? Who tf is Katrina? I don't understand why they didn't name their mother as she was in ts2. I get it that it's an alternate timeline/universe but I don't really understand EA's decisions.
Anyway I love the makeovers, great job
I don't know if it's still the case but the game's censor used to detect "Nighat" as a bad word and wouldn't let you name sims or lots. It seems like it must have been updated recently.
perhaps because people from foreign countries werent able to pronounce her name
@@ii-vl9vc but the surnames are always different in other countries. They could just change the name if it was that difficult to pronounce (which I don't thibk it is). For example, the Landgraabs are called "Quero-Tudo-Que-É-Seu" here in Brazil.
They made the Calientes into a generic THOT family with a freeloading Jersey Shore Rip-off of a Lothario.
@@thomasscudder5638 why would they censor that?
I just realized. They’re called Landgraabs because they are land grabbers 😭😭😭
Back when TS Bustin' Out was brand new, we all knew who it was based off of--It was a kind of joke about someone from the 80s in the real estate business who was a real jerk about using eminent domain to take people's homes and build nonsense on the land. Guess who?
@@nempne Trump?
@@RosesAndIvy Yep :)
Jane Tanis
THATS HILARIOUS omfg the sims team used to be so shadyyy
@@puffymcbuffy Honestly I find it weird how this hasn’t been brought up before in our gaming community. I think some of the Wild comes from Wright’s attendance to Montessori schools, because they’re so focused on individual growth (like how we play our sims!)
It’s crazy to actually look back and realize how few ready made households came with the base game
I made Johnny Zest disowned for being gay and take the story from there.
That's a great idea Lisa! I might have to do that in the updated save!
That's an amazing idea 😳
Me too! I did the same. And Malcolm gay as well. Johnny x Lothario. Malcolm x Mitchell.
Everything because Johnny rejected the flirty comment of my female Sim just after being best friend 4ever. None of them had a partner. So...
Same! I paired him up with Mitchell, they make for a cute couple IMO ❤️
I did kind of a similar story it was specifically Nancy that disowned him.
When she died and Malcolm took over I decided that Malcolm was not as evil as his mother and allowed Johnny to become part of the family again.
Johnny's Husband Roger Denvurs is head of a Corporation I made up for my lore.
This makes the world feel more alive, they disregarded the stories completely. It’s almost like they made the sims and slapped on the story as an afterthought but never actually implemented the story. Very annoying.
I think that's exactly what they did! So sad that they cared so little!
Pleasant Sims Since the Calientes have a alien background, even though they aren’t really aware of it, for the get to work save file you could add that into their genetics somehow. Do you think Don and the caliente sisters would know the goths? Was Dina still the widow of Michael Bachelor who was Bella’s Brother? It’d be cool to add those little details to make it more like the sims 2. Even make Cassandra have a little crush on Don once she ages into a young adult.
Interesting how that aligns with how disney treated the entire Star Wars movie franchise. They introduced characters with very little background stories and no developement...they never had a plan.
This might get me to play some TS4. The minute I head that TS4 would be in an "Alternate Universe" I was like daaaaamn wait what?! Don't they know even people that don't play The Sims know who Bella is?! The lore is a huge part of the franchise. Even the smallest households had a huge backstory on TS2 and TS3.
EA you should be embarrassed. That's it. Dishonor! Dishonor on you whole family, dishonor on you, dishonor your cow, dishonor on your game packs!
LMAO!! I totally agree! Dishonor all around!
AHAHAHAHAH Go Mushu go!!! 😍🤣🐉
Well in my opinion they can make alternate universes and play around with some aspects. (Except for mortimer just being a dang scientist if he's there). But ATLEAST they should invest in it. And they didnt. It is all setdressing.
Anyway zuko called and he wants his honor back lol.
THE MULAN REFERENCE HAHAHA
It's crazy how EA even released the game like this. They should have put in the actual relationships instead of just empty flavor text. And even then they have made no moves to change it in 6 years. The only minor thing they did to "evolve" one of these stories was creating Iggy Pancakes after the toddler update, but even now he's not automatically made a member of the Pancakes household in new games. It's such a shame. It's nice to have fans that actually care about the characters and their lore.
I LOVE this, EA hire this woman 👌🏼
Thank you for watching Samantha! 💙
@- word
- FACTS
Pleasant Sims Any time, i love your content and your honesty 👌🏼
EA doesn’t deserve Cindy’s work and dedication for the Sims. 🙅🏻♂️ (Not after the Star Wars pack)
Years ago when it first started the Sims 4 you could have one sided love and friendship but people kept complaining about it and the gurus
changed the relationship to both romance and friendship
I thought so!!! I'm so glad you said this because I distinctly remember making Pleasantview back in 2014-ish and setting Darren's relationship for Cassandra with cheats. I thought maybe I misremembered! Why would they take this away!???
people kept complaining about the one sided
@@PleasantSims I also remember that the stories early on were implemented. I specifically played the Caliente household and the friendship between Nighat and Don was 25% for Nighat and 15% for Don. Don and Nina were Best Friends, and had a bit of romance. Don also had a small crush on Dina while Dina had a huge crush on Don.
I had no idea it used to be that way. People were complaining about it?? It adds so much to the storytelling possibilities!
@@Miss_Mewiththat maybe i got the complaining wrong but it should still be in the sims forum or ea forum.
Why have they made so many sims evil? Like I understand the point of having evil sims, but no quiet neighbourhood which doesn't appear to be in a particularly sketchy place should have more than one evil sim...it's ridiculous!
I appreciate that you did this, it does however make me even angrier at EA for doing this themselves. This took you what, a day or so to do this by yourself? While EA, with all their tools, said nah lets not worry about it... EA man... Great video! Keep up the awesome Sim content💕
Couldn't agree more! They could have easily done this in half the time!
The base game just became alot better. I always
1. add Mary-Sue, Daniel Pleasant and the Oldies
2. modify their relationship using MC Command Center (mainly to Angela and Lilith Pleasant from Discover University)
3. add the no inappropriate behaviour mod for family and friends
4. Play the Sims 2 Storyline in the Sims 4
My problem is still the shallowness. When Mary-Sue walked in on Daniel she kissed him afterwards and in less than a day got over it (based on the emotion system)
The Pleasants would be so good to add to the game! Btw, there is a Sims 4 version of them in Maxis gallery. They did some of the famous households a few time ago! Before university I added them to my game :')
My aunt never really played Sims 2 before but she was quick to add in Mary-Sue and Daniel when I told her about them.
Yeah the emotions don't last because of a lack of a memory system in the game :/ Downloading the realistic reactions mod and Meaningful Stories mod really helps tho, it makes the interactions have consequences! Just wish EA bothered with focusing on gameplay with depth.
I literally remade all of Pleasantview in Newcrest and all of Strangetown in Strangerville in my save, relationships and all 😂 (though the Singles household from Strangetown has to be in Oasis Springs because Strangerville is WAY too small) It took almost a solid week of work
@@alexbain8606 I place them both as roommates in Oasis Springs in one of the Starter Homes
It's a shame that EA decided to not follow the lore and don't care about the households. When I played Sims 2 I actually never created my own Sims, since my own stories could never beat the premade ones. In the Sims 3 it was really fun to see Mortimer and Bella as children, that was just so precious to me and I played with them a lot, especially when Generations came out. I also actually loved the Sims 3 Back to the Future Landgraab story, where the mother just cloned her children and all looked and were dressed like her. Aaaah, I miss the old Sims. It still is fun to create now all the stories I remember with my own Sims, but it just feels different. And I would've loved to see more and different stories. Sims 4 should get disowned from the family, like Johnny.
Travis staring into space is literally me at the current state of TS4.
I cant with this whitewashed calientes they had the Audacity to put in the game
I know! I hate what they did to the Calientes the most.
Actually the white washed everybody they recreated because of the horrible skintones the game has
They whitewashed them AND made them look super busted
Aaaa q pft ter mais brasileiros aqui, e realmente é revoltante o que fizeram com elas.
Dina Caliente ajudou a construir meu caráter e eu odeio o que o The Sims 4 fez com ela.. transformou em uma garota branca comum e sem personalidade
I do think it’s cute how Travis, Summer & Liberty are from MySims Kingdom though
Oh wow I never knew that!
WHAT I LOVE MY SIMS KINGDOM HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THIS OMG THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING I EVER THOUGHT ABOUT THEM
Edit: honestly I can’t even be mad at myself for not noticing cause the only real resemblance they have are first names and hair color like that’s literally it. EA didn’t do anything skill-wise or character-wise to reflect any base game Sims’ alleged personality so I’m not surprised. I WILL be making changes to them the next time I go in-game. (Did they white-wash Liberty too? I’ll have to check again but damn does EA suck at making sims jfc)
They all first showed up in the first MySims game, but their whole little love story definitely came from Kingdom 😊
@@PlaystationSimmer when I put the two together it made my day
@@charliegreen7988 I don’t even play TS4 because of how poor I think it is :( poor EA and their new not creative staff
I feel like you're one of the best person who happend to this community. Not only giving us entertainment but also doing something useful ^^
Thanks so much! I'm glad you think so!
I've already tried several different fan made Save files in the Sims 4. Now I'm so hyped for this one and can't wait to try it out!
Thanks Hendrik! I hope you like it! I tried to keep it true to the Sims 4 "vision" but fix the annoyances of missing relationships/stories not making sense.
@@PleasantSims Cindy please I beg you! Please try and fix as many worlds of TS4 DLC's as u possibly can. If anybody can bring true life into the sims 4, is you. As always, love your content.
My thought since Katrina is the caliente sisters "mom" I think that Katrina is their step mom.
And happy 20k cindy
That's a good way to think of it! And thank you! 💙
That makes so much sense since Nighat died when the sisters were children and their father still lived long after that.
I think Katrina is the real mother into an alternative universe and that's why her daughters are so whitewashed. Otherwise, Dina would be able to flirt with her stepmother.
@@arieltales8952 I guess your right but it depends on how you see it
I hope this becomes a series.
I think it just might! 💙
Thanks for the response! New subbie here. Will definitely look forward for more of your videos.
Love from the Philippines!
I'm mad at the fact that you didnt throw Katrina into Strangerville to be experimented by the beakers but oh well😭
LOL! Now that's a good idea for a video!
Remember how they half-assed the stories of the pre-made families in expansions at the end of The Sims 2? This is like that, but they just got way, way lazier 👀😅
Yes, and I feel that extended to the later Sims 3 expansions too. But this time they didn't try from the beginning!
@@PleasantSims Watch the Sims 5 have no pre-made families at all 👀
Look at Cindy fixing Ts4! You might as well work for EA at this point😌
HAHA! You know I would never. 😆
I'd like to see her video. Could you put the link?
*Nobody:*
*Every Sim:* _Hello darkness my old friend..._
Them being alone in the dark just gave me that vibe lol.
I wish you already made J have several romantic interests with Nina and Dina or maybe Eliza Pancakes👀, and maybe good friends with Don Lothario because they have similar intentions, OR make them enemies to compete on who is the bigger ladies-man in town.
Those are good ideas I can definitely implement!
Pleasant Sims Thank you for bringing back the lore we all from past games to Sims 4.😍😍
And when the world needed her the most after the disaster of Journey to Batuu... Cindy fixes the lore and storyline in the Sims 4 👏🏻 You give us hope 😌
Ty for making Johnny unfriendly with the Landgraabs! I always had to force him into arguments with his parents to get him at a base negative relationship level with them just to have a starting point for his story
OMG YESTERDAY I STARTED TO "FIX" MINE AND NOW U UPLOAD THIS, YOU HAVE SAVED ME
Glad to help Maria!
i feel that Geoffrey Landgraab would have had a positive relationship with Johnny because he isn't a Landgraab by blood so he would start feeling bad and try to salvage a relationship with his son
"Lack of connection to the game" -
did you mean
*lack of drama* ?
No, but that's also a problem.
Cindy doing her part to help the poor sims in this game ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just trying to help! Lol
I think Malcom's traits makes sense if you consider that his older brother revelled against his parent and left when he was a kid. That mixed with the fact that he is now a teen could have made him the opposite of what he was.
There is a mod for one sided crushes and also a mod for FWB too with a new romantic system (it has a system that depends on the relationship weight and sims can catch feelings! If sims agree to date, they will become bf/gf and get romantic lvls). There is also a woohoo wellness mod too that adds pregnancy wishes and stds.
The fact that youtube recommended me this shows that youtube is lowkey stalking me cause I haven't played sims 4 in a while cause of the lack of lore and I am too swamped with school to start making one up so you are a literal angel sent to me at this point. The lack of lore is so sad because in sims 3 I would literally leave the family I am playing with and go read the lores of other people cause it was always so interesting and I knew it was actually happening. Imagine sims 4 doing it ha.
Dina is so cute! (And I love what you did with the Calientes and the Goths!) I'll definitely be downloading this save file for my game. Great video as usual Cindy 😊
Thank you! 💙💙
I’m pretty sure if you use the UI Cheats mod, you can click on the relationship bar to change the romance and friendship relationship to be more one-sided!
I tried but it changes both sides unfortunately. Unless I'm doing something wrong. 😞
Pleasant Sims you’re not doing anything wrong! It is not possible to have one sided relationships in TS4 (or modders would have done it already!)
I love that you did this! I also fixed the families like this! Especially the landgraabs and johnny zest. These are such basic things ....once again EA drops the ball.
Congrats to 20k Cindy, you definitely deserve it 💖
Thank you so much!!
Wow! Thank you so much! Angela and Lilith in Discover University needs fixing and probably every other family in every Sims 4 world... Plubella did fix realtionships in her save files but she edited so much else and you need all packs to really enjoy her new builds and families. I would like a save file with just fixed households in the expansions with added main worlds.
if my sims 4 game wasn’t laggy af on my current laptop i would 1000% download this! you’re doing the sim lord’s work here, cindy 😊
LOL! Thank you so much!
When you entered in the caliente household I was waiting for a romance between Don and the maid, hahaha but i loved it anyway and i'm so impressed how involved and dedicated you are with The Sims Franchise ❤️
When you just uninstalled TS4 and then Cindy comes through. I love her so much.
You're awesome for doing this! I love having the relationships actually reflect the household bio and I don't like having to set everything up myself. Will definitely be giving this a download later.
I wouldn't mind seeing you mess around with the households in other neighbourhoods too!
A feel like EA owes you a check as compensation for doing all the important work for them.
This is something I never knew I needed thank you so much! I was going to do something similar to this adding all the most iconic Sims families and fixing the relationships! Omg I never thought I'd see you fixing the sims 4, again thank you so much!
You're very welcome! Glad you like it! :)
I love this. I feel like these sims and their "stories" have so much potential to be good, EA just executed them so poorly.
I seriously love your energy and passion! Always excited to see a new video in my feed. Thanks for being you!
This is such an interesting video, I love seeing other peoples takes on the maxis sims. I recently started redoing and making over all the sims to create a base save file for myself and I was so shocked when I actually read some of the bios and realised I had no idea what a lot of the backstory's were because they literally aren't present in the game!
Literally until this moment didn't realise Don was meant to be Katrina's boytoy! Maxis did them SO dirty, their original make up and brows gave me evil stepsister vibes. In my game Dina is a social media star turned successful actress, with a on the rocks marriage to a 'producer' who lives off his family money. Dina has bought herself a nice mid range house in Del Sol Valley and let Nina move in while she studied and got her uni degree, she then became a very successful Lawyer with lots of celebrity clients that she meets through Dina. Katrina quit her job and is financially supported by Dina and by her many boyfriends 😂
I always tend to just evict Johnny Zest and ignore him but I'm kinda into your interpretation, I might make hims a Landgrabb cousin and turn him into a succession inspired cousin Gregg 😂
Also my Dyslexic brain read Dina as Diana, which is what I've been calling her since the sims 2, I was shook when I went to make her over and actually read the name 😂 I had to google and check that had always been her name
Cindy, this is the best surprise I’ve had in months. Thank you!! Maybe I’ll try the sims 4 again
Thanks Tyler! I hope it helps you have more fun with the game!
You can make even Sims 4 more interesting to watch wow 💚
Thanks so much! 💙
A true talent 😂
@@henlex6424 absouletly! 🤭
This blessing showed up in my recommend. I've stopped playing the sims 4 quite a while a go but man this almost makes me want to start again. I always loved the previous games previous made family stories and drama. I always played them in between my own creations. Definitely something that was missing in 4. Beautiful job!
You are a genuine gem for doing this and being so kind to share with us the save file. I will be downloading this first thing in the morning. The Calientes look 1000x better with your touch ups and they have aleays been my favorites from the francise. Thanks so much!
Pro gamer tip: why fix your own game when the customers do it for you
- EA, probably
Brilliant, although I would also suggest setting skills and career levels that make sense (especially for adults and elders), like surely Mortimer would be much higher than level 3 in his career? Why not also make some Sims have relationships with those in other neighbourhoods considering they are interconnected; like, I'd imagine Travis would get along well with the guys from Roomies household, for example
Really love this! I would love to incorporate this into my personal save file
this is such a great idea Cindy, I love what you’ve done here. Especially the friendships you’ve made between the different sims which could set you up for romance in the future like Alexander and Olivia. The Calientes & Don look so great! 🖤
Thanks jd! I'm so glad you like it!
I've been looking for a save with better relationships, and this is exactly what I need! I'll definitely be downloading. I would love to see Strangerville as well because in the older games, there was drama between the families and they all had relationships with each other so seeing that but with the new townies in Sims 4, would be awesom.
This is so cool, there is a mod that is called unrequited crush, not sure how it works but maybe worth a look into it for gameplay purposes.
you're a GEM!! you put so much love and thought into it (as much as the Sims 4 allow, sigh) and honestly, EA should hire you for story writing!! you know your sims and I'm sure you could bring new awesome sims to the neighborhoods to make the game feel more real - or at least more entertaining and engaging!
I just wanna say I found you on a sims 2 nostalgia whim about a week.ago and you've quickly become my favorite youtuber. Thank you for doing this🖤
YESSS! I might wanna try to play them now 😄
what about adding some relationships across the neighborhoods? like between Dina and Mortimer?
I decided not to do this since I'm not sure if people like to play the worlds separately like I do. But I can definitely make another save file with multi-world relationships! Thanks for the suggestion!
I love this! I’ve been doing something similar in my own game except I’ve also been giving them makeovers and also adding in some sims 2 base game families! I really enjoy your content Cindy you’ve definitely made me love playing the sims again keep up the great work! 💕
I honestly love this video. I didn't even think I needed this but now I doooo! More pleaseee!
This makes everything so much more interesting! It annoys me when I make a new family, drop them into a neighborhood, and then there's no community structure to work with. This is way more realistic, thanks!
It's crazy to me that even after you went on and tried to give these families more of a story and drama to make them more interesting, I still find them bland and boring by only looking at them through this video. Maybe it's just my hate for TS4 talking... I feel like the game has this super artificial vibe, like it's just a caricature of what could look like a good game. The fact you can't even make one-sided relationships is just so reveling of that fact. Everything looks fake. Anyway... Thanks for making this! I'm sure people will take this and at least try to play more meaningful stories with these premades. It's just not for me.
I understand what you mean completely! 💙
It’s so cool to see how passionate you are about this game
I really appreciate you doing this. I'm not sure when I'll play TS4 again, but when I do I'll use this save file.
Only watched to the second fix so far and I have to say... I. LOVE. THIS!!!!
Thanks Holly! So glad you like it!
Oooo I LOVE this, I always have to fix the premades before I play because it drives me insane! I will say I do understand why they changed nighats name, since otherwise she can't be uploaded to the gallery, but other than that they completely butchered her and her family, so thank you for fixing them 🙏
I love that you did this!! I want to play these households :)
This is so great. I've never been that into sims lore, preferring to only play with my own sims, but all these households looks like tons of fun to play. Thanks for all this work!
I love how the community is making The Sims 4 better because EA doesn’t care! Amazing job Cindy! 💚 I’ve been playing only TS2 and TS3 but after this I may give TS4 another chance! 😅🤣
Thank you!! 😊 And I agree. Now it's up to the players and modders because I don't think we're getting any help from EA.
Pleasant Sims Exactly!!! 💚
I love your changes! But I am unable to play The Sims 4 without getting bored xD So I just enjoyed the video.
I needed this so a million thanks for making this!
I really appreciate what you’ve done here. Great work 🦄✨
I was waiting for something like thiiiisssss!!!! I'll download it
Thanks Fran! Hope you enjoy it!
🎉Congratulations on 20K!! 🎉 *kinda late
Thank you!! 😁
Thank you for this!! I was looking for a save like this but all I could find was saves that used a lot of packs (which most of I don't have) :D
I did this for almost all neighborhoods in my save game as well. It was so much work and not rewarding at all, because it really doesn't matter if a sim is friends or enemies with someone, they almost act the same anyway. I wish relationships worked like in Sims 2, with one-sided friendships, crushes etc. and more drama. I feel like they don't even care, when their partner cheats on them...so frustrating.
I've been tired of the Sims 4 since I think island living and I have tried so many mods to try to make the game more fun for me but it didn't work 😭 I made one family that I absolutely loved and played them through to the end of their lives but I couldn't make anymore that I loved after that and I dunno why. So yeah I'm through with the Sims 4.I'll stick with 2 and 3 but 4 is done in my books, I don't think anything they will come up with will bring me back but who knows maybe.
it always made me laugh that in the calientes bio ea act like they’re the most attractive sims in the world and then there’s my sims waking up looking like actual supermodels next door
You are so comforting to me and make me feel safe :)
Thankyou!! This is wonderful. Finally, it feels like the game's enriched with family histories, personalities true to the original characters, and real thought and heart put into these digital people and their community.
When I play the Sims 2, I plan to name either Dina or Nina's child Katrina as a nod to the Sims 4 because I do like the name Katrina.
"It's unrealistic to have no relationships outside of your household."
Allow me to introduce myself 😂
Love this!
I'm a newcomer to the Sims (have only played Sims 4, vaguely familiar with the earlier ones from watching my cousins play it at their house). I have fun with the game, but this makes it look so much more interesting! I'm on PS4 (I know, I know) but I'm kinda tempted to go in now and play with all the household relationships and see what I can do!
im so glad to see a creator talk about this, the lore has always been the most interesting part of the game for me. when ts4 came out i tried playing for a couple of years ignoring this issue, but i always got so tired so quickly. since then ive been working on my ultimate save file, creating a whole buch of households, fixing some classic ones, adjusting their relationships and even fixing their houses with the help of the gallery. its a lot of work, but one day ill be done and will also finally feel like actually going into living mode lol
