Well the fact that he would even consider selling the furniture, when he'd just so carefully decorated to leave the other lot nice... didn't make any sense
I wish someone would also just decide to keep me as a non-committed companion and carry me alongside them in life. Never really bothering each other, just existing together and I get to live in a tank and not make any financial contributions.
Same. I have an alice in wonderland legacy that I have tried and quit so many times because I cant get the aesthetics right and this pack is MADE FOR IT
My heart dropped after you finished renovating and then said “Okay let’s move!” 😳 All that hard work…I was kind of hoping you’d stay for a few more episodes 😅 But looking forward to seeing this farm grow too
I feel the size of the lot should have a “historic” home that council has marked which you can transform into a work shed to tie in the driveway with the newer estate towards back of lot if you wish to have the main more modern country with other packs
Or the historic home could be like a rental unit. When he has all the packs he could get a roommate who lives it the historic home. In real life it would be like an Air bnb that the family would rent out for the extra cash.
Historic buildings in the UK are known as 'Listed Buildings' - The new occupant/s wouldn't be able to make alterations without permission from the Council (owner in the Sims) That would be a fun addition to the Cottage Living pack. Or not for those who like to bulldoze and rebuild... like James.
@@Kari_B61ex yeah but! James can work perfectly well with restrictions and objects you can't change. Don't you remember THE TREE from Cats and Dogs lp? Only works when it's he who's making a decision, ideally to piss us off haha
@@Kari_B61ex James can determine if it’s a big house or just a small one level home with a bedroom/bathroom where the exterior stays the same just a little run down but the interior is just a storage room/work shed with a bathroom with the newer estate joining off the old driveway and that way he can have design freedom with newer home that doesn’t have to stay within the worlds design… Tbh he’ll do what he wishes I just thought it would be cool to have something that ties in the driveway from the world as he was thinking of doing! 😄
~James placing all his plants into inventory~ me screaming at my phone: 'James your shrooms! don't forget your shrooms!!' ... James forgets his shrooms and sells the shed. Me:🤦♀️
Me: "Don't forget your mushrooms." ... Me: "Semaj, the mushrooms." Semaj : "Is there anything else I should take?" Me: "For the third time, MUSHROOMS!"
....you must find... another shrubbery! Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here, beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get a two layer effect with a little path running down the middle.
This series, Deligracy's Cottage Living series and the full Bigwallet series are the only things getting me through the 3am feeds with my now 1 month old baby 😅😴 so thank you James and Deli! 🙏
How cute would it be if Chaz moves to the big lot and is so overwhelmed that he hires an interior decorator, Hazel, and when she comes over to redecorate they fall in love and she moves in 🥰
Not James furnishing the cutest barn ever and selling it immediately after! lmaooo I love the chaotic energy. And the new house will be great, I like how it's going! The 64x64 lot is perfect for this sort of gameplay. Yayyyy ♥
Maybe you should give both the rooster and the hen the spicy treat in order to get a hatchable obsidian egg. I’m not sure if it would make any difference but I don’t think you’ve tried it yet
That's what i keep commenting under the last videos - he only got to collect hatchable eggs after he bought the rooster, so I'm pretty sure that he has to give the treat to it to get a hatchable obsidian one
I mean, I don’t think so. You don’t need to have a golden rooster to get golden eggs but maybe. I think it would be funny if he did it and it worked. Maybe it’s a bug in the game where it won’t give him the hatchable obsidian eggs or you they really only want you to get them initially by having a bad relationship with the chickens?
@@alinepereira2624 I don't think that's the case. He is still getting hatchable golden eggs. It says that chickens who are upset with you can lay obsidian eggs, so maybe their relationship is just too high for them to lay the hatchable ones
James: the door swings in front of the stairs, kinda dangerous hehe Also James: is extremely vexed with a mail slot which is nonfunctional as far as I can tell. I love James but what he chooses to focus on, and alternately ignore baffles me. Still loving the series tho. I was in hospital for 4 days and watching this kept me from going insane!
hey james if you’re reading this! just wanted to say these videos honestly make my day - keep doing what you’re doing and keep creating smiles across the globe :)))
It think it’s funny how James did the external walls as stone because Clare (the person how built the original building) wanted to do that’s to but she couldn’t due to wallpaper limits
Storytelling idea: when you have access to your saves Chaz hires a decorator for the big farm and it ends up being Hazel. They spend a lot of time together giving the farm an overhaul and end up getting close in the process.
James you were doing so well and then "I guess originally it would have been closed off, in the past, but we're effectively building a brand new house..." modern houses still have closed floor plans, because we still have cold winters and nobody wants a really high heating bill or a cold house in winter. Open plans happen in apartments, because they already have a separate front door to the outside with the shared hallway as a buffer. If you have a house with a door directly to the outside, you need it to open onto a hallway, and have closable doors between the hallway and the rest of the house. Obviously it's the sims so you can do whatever you want, but if you're aiming for realistic English houses hallways are important. We also usually have the kitchen sink facing a window, and I've never seen a stove facing a window. Traditional English cooking involves a lot of shallow frying, and boiling things for a long time. A window opposite a stove would get horribly dirty from grease splashes, but it's nice to have a view of the garden while you do the dishes.
Chaz came from such chaos! With this cute little farm, I just want to see him meet a nice woman have a couple kids and enjoy a simple life. Loving this let's play.
I’m so interested to know how this LP and the Dream Home decorated LP will merge 🤔🤔 so excited to see Chaz and Hazel together 😍 already have their ship name, chazel 😂💖
Thanks for all the content recently, James!! I’ve been having a hard time lately and it really helps me to take my mind off of it for a bit. You’re appreciated! 😇
The typewriter computer looks to me like an iPad on a typewriter keyboard, I’ve seen some of these recently. Maybe that’s what they were going for and that’s why it’s cheaper?
Yeah, apperently a carrot is comparable to a snickers bar for them. Twigs, leafes and hay should be the main feed, but Kitchen scraps ( like the peels of parsley, beetroot, celery and yes, also carrot peel) make a good snack.
rewatching this series because i'm enjoying the rags to ranches series and i can't get enough farming content, and the whole time i'm watching james renovate the barn, i'm like "i remember that he doesn't stay here long once this is done" but i had _not_ remembered that he moves _immediately_ 😂 the betrayal 😭😭
James: Ok I'm only making this house nice to sell, not gonna put in a whole lot of effort Also James: WHY IS THERE NO COTTAGE LVING COFFEE TABLE!??!?!?!
I can see this let’s play becoming my favorite like seasons was. The seasons how was the most amazing house from any of the let’s plays! This plot of land I can see it being bigger and better!! I cannot wait to see where this goes
i was refreshing my notifications to see if there’s a new video from James and here it is. thanks for the effort and the commitment with these constant uploads, it means so much for us 🤍
The boot room(mud room) should be behind the stairs in the hallway. Typically you will find them near back doors or the back door will be inside of them as the premise is that you would come inside after being in the yard and take your shoes off and clean up!
Really loving all the cottage living videos. Very impressive that you only had the pack for a week but have been able to post a video EVERYDAY for like 12 days - if EA really isn’t paying y’all for the free advertising, they ought to be.
I think that when you have access to all packs, the bathroom by the boot room should turn into a laundry room and add a small bathroom toward the back of the hallway. That way the back door can stay over by the boot room/laundry. I’m really loving this let’s play.
That 64 plot is absolutely lovely and I cannot wait for the next two days to bugger off so that I can move my animal rescue shelter there - it will be perfect (or should that be purrrfect) with all the cats and dogs mingling with the cows, llamas, chicken, and foxes. I usually end up using the big plot in Windenburg, because the one in Brindleton Bay looks too much like a fancy gated community lot, but his one is so much going to be my new favourite!!!!
I love the idea of crafting your own furniture. I think I might do that once I get Cottage Living since I'm already planning on doing some other challenges, like off-the-grid and simple fridge.
He left the mushrooms. Ooh just saw this in the patch notes. Maybe this is why Chaz hates his family so much. "Toddlers will no longer gain negative Sentiments against their parents randomly, especially the Festering Grudge Sentiment. I should not be laughing at this issue as I type it, I should not…"
The outside of the new cottage is literally so cute I want to SCREAM. I wasn’t sure at first if this pack was for me but watching you and Plumbella and Lil Simsie has me 100% convinced that I need it and I’m ready for it NOW.
We need an orchard in the front with fruit trees (and eventually a fizzing station from eco-life style) and then the big crops in the middle. Veggies at the back and then at the very end the animal sheds. That would be so cool
I honestly loved that you put the mirror at the bottom of the stairs because a staple of old british houses is actually random mirrors just kinda hanging out around stairwells. My aunt has one positioned like that in her house and you can see yourself walking down the stairs.
Love this lp! Its terrible weather in northern Norway and we already had the first “autumn storm”, so this is a good motivation to get up in my vacation 😊👍
I laughed a little too hard when James said the hutch didn't make sense in the bathroom. I have family who collects antiques and live in an old farmhouse and literally have a hutch full of the most random shit that does not belong in a bathroom just chilling in their bathroom 😂

@@gabyrocha4467 yeah I wasn’t super surprised. Just the immense pain of when he sold his place and didn’t grab the shrooms
And then SELLS ALL THE FURNITURE!
@@mariac1871 AND THEN BUYS THE EXACT SAME FURNITURE AT THE NEW ONE
Well the fact that he would even consider selling the furniture, when he'd just so carefully decorated to leave the other lot nice... didn't make any sense

Haha. Me too. "Don't forget the mushrooms. Did you get the mushrooms yet? Still there. The mushrooms, James. JAMES, THE MUSHROOMS!"
Me too!!!
I was stressing about this too.. he’s going to be sad when he can’t make spicy treats
Me too.
The poor frog that was left behind… was with Chaz since the alley way, but doesn’t get to see the big farm.
THAT'S WHAT IM SAYIN
😭😭😭😭
The person who created this lot was Clare Siobhan, she also created the lot that you started with that the ally was in.
Thank you so much for sharing this - another SimsTuber added to the subscription list!
I was about to comment this
@@katbairwell Clare is lovely. She's a great story teller
Oh I’m really suprised that EA chose her since she normally play and build with so much CC
@@Karaetify probably because she's from England like all the other creators that did the buildings
The most successful person in this let’s play is the frog, he went from the alleyway to boot room with literally $0
All hail Alley Frog
Legit, he's an OG
And nobody tried to breed or sell him either.

Only other one for me was seasons. This one and seasons bring so much more gameplay. All other packs are lacking that.

The last time I was so excited for a Sims 4 expansion pack was Seasons.

Also James: *buys another bed*
he did that with the entire build
James: "I'm not going to spend too much blood, sweat and tears renovating."
Spends more than 50% of the video renovating the barn.
This let's play is the only thing keeping from going crazy from waiting for this pack to come out
Seriously 😫. I hope they don’t do this again! Like give us a 2-3 weeks heads up tops, EA!
Same here. I preordered after watching James’ videos!
I am so excited 😆 can’t wait to play.

@@Kalolelo it's because of that farm mod I think... Not like they had YEARS to release one of the most awaited expansion 🙄
My heart dropped after you finished renovating and then said “Okay let’s move!” 😳 All that hard work…I was kind of hoping you’d stay for a few more episodes 😅 But looking forward to seeing this farm grow too
I know!! I wish he had been able to upload it to the gallery :(
Anyone else shocked that James built all this without spending money on a useless decorative column? It’s a cottage living miracle!
Oh no the Frog! It’s now left alone in the old house! T_T
Yeah i was hoping til the last minute he would put it in inventory but not, RIP mister frog 😅
The frog now owns the old barn and makes his money from mushrooms

I feel the size of the lot should have a “historic” home that council has marked which you can transform into a work shed to tie in the driveway with the newer estate towards back of lot if you wish to have the main more modern country with other packs

Your chicken coop is full, that’s why you can’t get any hatchable obsidian eggs. Try deleting a chicken or two, or maybe get a second chicken coop! :)
it's because his chickens have a good relationship with him. only an already evil chicken can lay hatchable obsidian eggs with good relationship
He doesn’t have to sell them, he can buy another chicken coop
He has been getting hatchable golden eggs despite the full coop though, I don't think the space is the problem

He needs to collect obsidian egg and obsidian milk to make Midnight treat. Then give it to a chicken/hen and then he will have an evil chicken

You could make the two bedrooms up stairs a jack and Jill bedroom /bathroom and then the master have an attached bathroom/walk-in
That's not something a typical British home has
James you were doing so well and then "I guess originally it would have been closed off, in the past, but we're effectively building a brand new house..." modern houses still have closed floor plans, because we still have cold winters and nobody wants a really high heating bill or a cold house in winter.

Exactly, it's way too much sugar for them, giving them parsley or basil would be much better!

Yeah, apperently a carrot is comparable to a snickers bar for them. Twigs, leafes and hay should be the main feed, but Kitchen scraps ( like the peels of parsley, beetroot, celery and yes, also carrot peel) make a good snack.

Finally it's that time of the day! Been refreshing the moment it's time for new video 🤣
The boot room(mud room) should be behind the stairs in the hallway. Typically you will find them near back doors or the back door will be inside of them as the premise is that you would come inside after being in the yard and take your shoes off and clean up!

Really loving all the cottage living videos. Very impressive that you only had the pack for a week but have been able to post a video EVERYDAY for like 12 days - if EA really isn’t paying y’all for the free advertising, they ought to be.
I love how he whispered “I do have birds of paradise sitting here” like it’s drugs
I think that when you have access to all packs, the bathroom by the boot room should turn into a laundry room and add a small bathroom toward the back of the hallway. That way the back door can stay over by the boot room/laundry. I’m really loving this let’s play.
finished this week’s uni reading just in time! Loving all the content James!
That 64 plot is absolutely lovely and I cannot wait for the next two days to bugger off so that I can move my animal rescue shelter there - it will be perfect (or should that be purrrfect) with all the cats and dogs mingling with the cows, llamas, chicken, and foxes.

I love the idea of crafting your own furniture. I think I might do that once I get Cottage Living since I'm already planning on doing some other challenges, like off-the-grid and simple fridge.

Did he just decorate his barn for hours only for him to sell the furniture when moving out 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♀️
Yeah he sold the furniture to leave them at the barn and not take them to the new lot. I don't see the issue
Selling furniture leaves it at the build
We need an orchard in the front with fruit trees (and eventually a fizzing station from eco-life style) and then the big crops in the middle. Veggies at the back and then at the very end the animal sheds. That would be so cool

@@gothempress i know right!!
I honestly loved that you put the mirror at the bottom of the stairs because a staple of old british houses is actually random mirrors just kinda hanging out around stairwells. My aunt has one positioned like that in her house and you can see yourself walking down the stairs.
Literally the comment section is how the ally frog is the OG character of the series and that he sold the furniture AND THE MUSHROOMS!!!!!!
Nice renovation James. I can't wait to see how you continue building up this lot.
James: I’m not going to put blood sweat and tears into this place OKAY???
~5 seconds later~
James: *puts blood sweat and tears into the build*
Love this lp! Its terrible weather in northern Norway and we already had the first “autumn storm”, so this is a good motivation to get up in my vacation 😊👍

Half of Australia right now: 👁👄👁
Oh no! The frog, the rabbit house and the mushrooms got left behind... Hope your rabbit friends will find you.
Those series are such feel good time. 😊
I kept murmuring "you forgot the mushrooms" as James was packing up the garden. RIP mushrooms.
Finally got into a warm bed and watching this video uninterrupted. Btw both houses are so adorable. Especially #2' exterior 😍
James: *Does his outro*
My brain: Dude, the clouds are moving😶
I tapped on the notification as fast as I could! A big farm 😍
Also, nice frames.
But back to the farm, big farms are fun. 😄
I'm like: what should I watch? Check the time and realize another episode drops!
This let’s play and James have been my morning companion and I love it!!! ❤️ Thanks James for your hard work!
I laughed a little too hard when James said the hutch didn't make sense in the bathroom. I have family who collects antiques and live in an old farmhouse and literally have a hutch full of the most random shit that does not belong in a bathroom just chilling in their bathroom 😂
Best way to start my morning!!!
"and on that bombshell..." ahaha i laughed so much, thank you. love top gear references
“Wicked” and “Step off” in a single episode? 😂
To be honest those were a real treat after “Bouj-gate” which drove me to distraction…. 🙈
