loooooove this shizzz
Hey Jess! There's a channel here called FakeGamerGirl, and she has a series where she recreates sims and houses from the Sims 2 in the Sims 4, if you're interested in that. Also, I feel like you and her have kind of the same energy ;) Love you!
hey jess I was wondering where did you get your pc from and how much was your setup
Imagine going to tour a house you're interested in buying, and the countertops are floral print and theres a fckin hamster wheel bed upstairs
My apartment has a swimmer pattern on the wall above the kitchen counters. The tiny swimmers even have colorful swimming caps. My roommate said when we were looking at this apartment she thought they were birds in the sky 😂
@@mushroomknob interesting choice😂
@@eiramharas Indeed... Apparently our landlord used to live here and she was into triathlon or something x)

"it's hard to care this much about something thats never going to improve" is a MOOD
literally every relationship i've ever been in
me to me
me about my mental health
All my relationships in a nutshell
@ every tinder guy
I'm practically begging you at this point: feed my nostalgia and do a Sims 2 let's play. PLEASE.
for real
Agreeddd pls
i have one i played through every pack!! or do you mean a more general all in one let’s play?
@@Plumbella omg please like a general one !! ❤️
@@Plumbella an all in one please that would be amazing ily
This is me every day cause I never moved on from the sims 2
honestly big fat same i am mentally 10 and it’s 2005
Same here!
Same LMAO i still play everyday anyways 😂
The best sims for me honestly
Same, I'm building in it right now haha
God I love her hair so much, why do my roots never look as nice as Jessie’s 😭
my roots get greasy if you even so much as look at them hen 😭
@@Plumbella ugh same I’m literally ready to shave it all off
@@trevello use dry shampoo bestie
@@b_r_a_n and get white powder all over your hair that looks like dandruff, no thanks
It’s so good 😭
I watched a video about the genius of Sims music and it honestly made me sad because we don't really have THE music anymore. I always play on muted. The old music isn't just nostalgic, it's actually, truly, so good
Not sure if you’re aware but the Sims 2 soundtrack is on Spotify 👀
I still play TS2 on the regular so I hear it a lot, but I legitimately listen to it when I’m cleaning the house and stuff
Wholesome 😍
@@izzykate1806 i fall asleep to the old sims music all the time and it’s completely messed up my spotify wrapped but tbh i think it’s hilarious af,, the music goes SO HARD
@@izzykate1806 whaaaat that's perfect. I'll put that on Spotify and listen while I play😮 thank yoooou
Sometimes I'll play the Sims 2 music on spotify and mute my computer while I'm in cas or building in Sims 4 lol. The vampire music in Sims 4 is top tier though, I'll give them that.
I can’t speak for the Sims 3 because I never really played it. However, I think the furniture in the first two games were very much geared towards novelty. And as the evolution of the Sims progressed, the creators realised current consumer trends dictated more realism in game play. And obviously the developments in graphic design made realism more accessible.
You can really see this when people start complaining about all the things that they want in the game (that it never had) that they insist is necessary because "this is supposed to be a life simulator." While I appreciate the realism sometimes, I rather like that they change clothes by spinning (rather than having an animation of actually removing clothes or shoes.)
@@junerussell6972 I always play with witches and just go with the spinning thing being “magic”. Same goes for the “Bust the Dust” floor sparkles and dust bunnies
Sims has always had a novelty side to it, i don't think they focus any more on realism now compared to then.
The sims 2 had expansions like IKEA, H&M Fashion Stuff, Kitchen & Bath Stuff, Mansion & Garden Stuff - all of which were pretty much just regular objects which were in fashion at the time. The only pack theme that doesn't really fit is Bon Voyage i think.
Sims 4 has packs like Journey to Batuu, My First Pet Stuff, Strangerville, Eco Lifestyle, Realm of Magic, Movie Night Stuff - which all fit a very specific style and really don't work well across most builds unless you're going for something specific.
I think the main thing is that Sims 2 only had around 4 years (2004-2008) before Maxis dropped it so that they could work on Sims 3. Whereas it's been almost 10 years since Sims 4 launched so they've had way more time to make objects which seem more realistic. It still has ridiculous things like the oversized telescope, an entire rocket you can put in your garden (but no cars even though they drive around the neighbourhoods), the cupcake machine, and some useless wallpapers & floors (thinking Spa Day's glowing wallpaper and those gaudy golden wallpaper/floors in Get Famous)
@@junerussell6972
It's true that it doesn't need to be too realistic or anything, but i think there's valid complaints about the things that break immersion or they're just really jarring.
Like TS4 had half of the content that TS1 base game had at launch.
TS4 base game was missing Aliens, Babysitters, Burglars, Cars, Gardeners, Ghosts, Hot tubs, illnesses, Newspapers, Pools, Repairman, Repoman and Toddlers - which were all pretty big features for gameplay. Like I think the fact that there still aren't any cars in TS4 is a bit jarring considering you can literally see them driving by in the neighbourhoods and it means that late gameplay is kind of empty because you don't have many expensive things to buy for your sims. There's certain things that should have been staples in the series when they were in every single base game before TS4.
DGMW, I never play with mods such as WickedWhims in TS4 because it goes too far with the realism, but there's a lack of gameplay in TS4 compared to every other game in the series. It's also kinda odd that TS4 has vaccuuming and washing machines but you don't need to water decorative plants or have any bug infestations like in TS1 & 2.
Sims 2 is
-I'll build a normal size home
-ok how the fuck did this become a mansion? How tf do I fill these rooms??
Me in Sims 3 😭 It can never just be a normal family home 😂😂
@@zerinaimsirovic5419 atleast in sims 3 you have a lot more options and objects to fill the rooms and make some special rooms 😂😂😂
@@ExanthePRKL That is true 😂
All I do is build a big box lmao I wish I had even a fraction of the sense of aesthetics y’all have
Lmao holding off on watching new shows because we don’t want them to be over and done is a special kind of anxiety 😂😂 happy to be here coping with ya
I have last episode anxiety syndrome too!
after years of replaying the sims 2 jessica still hasn’t remembered boolprop snapobjectstogrid false 😭
Or setquartertileplacement on, then ctrl+f. It lets you move items on the quarter tile (shocking), same as 3 and 4.
@Deh Alcântara I use it all the time and everything works I'm confused
Whoa! You guys have just changed my world! Off to go fix all my builds now. Thank you 🤯
@@lemonpledge7093 please yes why does no one ever use it
i’ve been getting back into sims 2 lately omg thank you
I was OBSESSED with that one Pleasantview house with the tower. It was GOALS and I, being like 10, was never able to achieve it because I didn't know cheats existed
The Sims 2 is so CHAOTIC but so ICONIC
the build/buy mode music is sending me into spirals of nostalgia and I love it
Hen if you need to take a mental break after this we understand ❤️
LMFAO THIS VIDEO NEARLY TOOK ME THERE BABE
The cc and/or default replacements literally change everything, you get a diferent game. Also, quartetileplacement. I could never go back to TS4, TS2 is my game ♡
Me still playing Sims 2 almost every day
👁👄👁
PS I have a Mac and I was able to get the Complete Collection in the App Store a couple years ago and it’s not all the packs but it works and I’ve rarely had crashes so there’s hopeeeeeee
Jupp 🥰 Same
Mines just decided not to open for no reason... 😭
I don't want to have to play 4
@@nc5193 if you’re having trouble try the subreddit r/sims2help, they’re still very active and other people might have had the same issues and be able to help! I just reinstalled from the discs on a new computer and I had this weird problem where the game said I had an incompatible graphics card and and I was really worried but I found a fix for it really quickly by checking for solutions on the subreddit!
@@engelberthovel8566 thank you I'll give that a go. I was going to just save my files and reinstall. I do that 1st though thanks.
I've been doing tests all weeks and I neededddd this today xx
YOU ARE GONNA DO AMAZING MAKE SURE TO TAKE A NICE LONG BATH AND CHILL I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU XXXX
Wow last time I was this early, EA still cared about babies not being objects
I was entering a shutdown/meltdown just as this video was released.
I didn't even read the title - saw plumbella clicked play. I didn't watch, just listened through it twice.
It calmed me down.
Thanks Jesse.
Hope you are doing better now ❤️
If you need more chaos in your life you could try playing Apartment Life with an eight person family.
I used to love that damn half circle weird bed so much.
i love jesse’s sims 2 vidéos because she’s at her most unrestrained and having the absolute best time
Calendar: it's May
Plumbella: * puts Christmas tree*
Relatable
You can change your cursor to be a left-handed cursor!!!! ❤ please see this! You don't have to live assimilated to us righties!
Just wanted to say, I started watching you at the start of my degree and today I just submitted my final exam. 3 years on and I still love watching you! Your videos have given me such a nice escape from stress and for that I am so grateful!

I laughed too hard at this! but um same!
Dont worry you could always **Bulldoze** jk,jk ....Or am I? 🤫😏😂😂
@@Godmother153 OMFG
Tbh bro look up neural plasticity, ya litterally cant do anything without improving in some way. Plus say nice things no even being mean to yourself as a joke, found out recently you'll legit just believe it if you say it enough. Its wild stuff. Brains are crazy ♡ good luck out there.
the sims 2 has a special place in my heart
I forgot about the sectionals in The Sims 2! The Sims 2 really was the bees knees.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who will avoid watching the end of a show so it doesn’t have to end
I feel so frigging validated right now!
We just need sectional everything. Sectional curtains, bookshelves, dining tables, dressers, bathtubs,...
Holy crap we're gonna got sectional everything
I almost only play sims 2 and I find it so much easier to build in, the sims 4 room system fucks with me a lot more than it helps
What a coincidence! I actually reinstalled the Sims 2 two days ago in a fit of nostalgia, and I'm having SO MUCH fun. It's old, yes, and you can tell, but it has so much passion put in it!! I love the townies, I love how much personality they have (in particular teen-agers!), the fact sims actually do stuff on their own, or the way they stare right at ME to complain when I tell them to do something they don't want. My heart is so full.
Hard to go wrong with either the Sims 2 or 3- they are both great in their own right
I'm still playing Sims 2 for the builds. I get bored with my families, but man, the builds.
My latest craze is creating gentrified old buildings. It started with an old mechanic's loft that came in Belladonna Cove, but my latest is creating an old bank building and then renovating it for modern living. I wish I could upload some of my favorites, but I'm living without wifi to my PC right now.
The editing is absolutely superb babes, absolute chefs kiss, the first-person doom edit had me howling 😙👌 I'm glad that you're doing what you can to feel comfortable with recording and making sure you're looking after your mental health!
jessi i understand you babe im 23, played ts2 my whole life non stop and i can build a proper house without crying in this game just now after all those years
your outro music is literally so relaxing ... so jesse and the world is alright and- i love u
Pressing G is for when you paint the ceiling :)
I totally forgot you could do that!! Thank you for bringing that memory back
wow what a flex lmao the Sims 4 could never
You can paint the ceiling??? Okay wow I'm still finding out things you can customize in this game
Recently found your channel and I absolutely adore you! Thanks for sharing your beautiful self with the world. Your videos feel so down to Earth and real.
Back in the day on windows there used to be a mouse setting for left handed users. Not sure if it still exists but it was under the mouse properties. 🤷🏽♀️
it does still exist
Spiral staircases in the Sims? What a time to be alive.
We can never escape the insurmountable glory that is Sims 2
I would love to see you try to build a sims 2 house using some of the advanced custom build tools developed by the community, like using Mootilda's grid adjuster and lot adjuster to make no-slope basements, 1- or 2-click foundations, or faux rowhouses. It's something I'm just now getting into as I try to improve my building skills, and although it's a little intimidating at first to use a custom program like these, with a tiny bit of trial and error it's not as hard as it seems and it can really open up the kinds of houses it's possible to build in TS2.
The Sims 2 is my favorite, purely because of the families. I grew so attached to them as a child and the nostalgia from playing as an adult is unmatchable.
I think we can all agree that Sims 4 build mode is the easiest to work with. When I played Sims 2 I feel like TH-cam was not really as popular but if it was I would have probably learned how to be a decent builder but I was not haha
omg the blue bathroom nostalgia! I grew up in a house with a blue bathroom and logically all the bathrooms in my builds had to be blue 😂
I get soooo much nostalgia from the family fun stuff pack! All the link castle themed furniture was my dream as a child 😂. Great video. How about an "I recreated my favourite sims 4 build... in the sims 2" video? You have made some super complicated builds and it might be a fun challenge to remake them in the older sims games 😊
watching u build makes me so calm,,, confusing as these videos are so stressful. love u jessie!!!
That bed with the weird headboard arch was my favourite when I was a kid. Sometimes I’d make my couples sleep in seperate beds so I could have as many of those dumb arch beds as possible. Awful taste. We love it.
2:11 I put off watching the last episode of Parks and Rec for a few months because I didn't want it to end 🤡
I waited 2 whole years to watch the last season of Adventure Time because I was in denial that it was over 🥲 just kept watching seasons 1-9 over and over
It's been four years and I still haven't finished it haahhaha
“Let’s cry today”
That’s everyday for me 😌
Come to my house, let's cry together 🎶
Friendship that will last forever 🎶
I felt it so deep in my soul when you were talking about the sectionals 😂
If they had just remastered this game with the updated build tools and usability of Sims 4, it would have been a thing of total joy. Closed worlds = not even an issue, hen.
“Please behave yourself, this is a Wendy’s.” im literally dying omfg 😂🤣
I’m sitting in my car in the Wendy’s parking lot right this second on my lunch break🤣
the fact you’re left handed makes me happy
I need the haunted cottage story
2:07 i cant tell you how many series ive started and never watched the last episode of because i hate when things end. i also avoid movies because i dont like watching endings
I would love to see a Sims 2 let’s play
When is this turning into a ts2 channel I'm waiting and manifesting x 😌✨💞
2:10 All the time! When I watched Schitt's Creek, I waited until all of the last season was out before watching it and just rewatched earlier episodes again and again because I didn't want the show to end!
your sims 1 and sims 2 videos are my faves, i think i’ve watched all of them now😭
I wish there is the Sims 2 remastered. I will be so damn happy because I can't get the Sims 2 to work on my laptop.
theres something about the old build systems that just make me so happy
We really need school buses, landlines, newspapers, spiral staircases, and much more from the Sims 2 into Sims 4.
I do that thing all the time where I’m so excited to watch something that I put it off!
Oh my, seeing family fun stuff again... I miss it soooo much! The nostalgia is real!
"We used to plan our houses out using carpet" I FORGOT I USED TO DO THAT OMG.
Your video editing is just *chef’s kiss* it has me in tears every day you’re an ARTIST
"It's hard to care about something that will never improve" I felt that ;~;
I love all your Sims2 videos, it's the only game of the series that keeps me interested in play it or watch others playing it.
Thank you.
For a video idea, what about builds inspired by the themes of a pack? Like not exclusively using the items in a pack, just the vibe or idea of it? Like building a launderette for laundry day, a day care for toddler stuff, outdoor cinema for movie hangout, ice cream parlour for cool kitchen, etc? Just different types of lots bc I am sick of seeing bars and museums everywhere.
For video ideas- I absolutely loved that Let’s Build an English village that you did a few years back!! Would love something similar
That Joe Slimboy bed sent me over the edge. Bring back ALL the nostalgia! Almost cried. I swear.
I am absolutely in love with all of your videos recently, keep up what you’re doing love
The Build mode music will stay with me all day - thanks for the nostalgic earworm!
omg those flower top counters r so cute
Ughhhh the memories !!! Feel like I’m 10 years old again watching this 😭🥰🥺 oh I miss it
I never knew about the sectionals... you just made my day much better. Also how does that house look so good?? Talented queen
I already felt such different energy from the first video of Jessie since she started this daily uploading thing, we love a queen who faces her fears
I love seeing the progression of your office in the background
Plumbella/sims 2 let’s plays are missing from my life - would love to watch you play the -remade families w all the drama ily 🖤
I'm bad at unlearning so this is the amount of frustration I still feel when building in 3 and 4 (and I haven't played 2 since like 2013). I don't like the pulling and pushing. And YESS, the roofs!
I pretty much only play the sims 2, so I always like when people post about it! But I am so happy that you actually try and don't just complain all the time :') So many don't even try to look through the menu and the cheats. Also, after all these years I have never gone near the constrainelevation cheat, so props to you!!! (Also, the roof angle adjuster came with Mansion & Garden, aka the last stuff pack, so it makes sense that you didn't know about it!)
Simsi45 is a cc creator that has converted lots of stuff packs from TS2 to TS4, thought I'd share in case anyone wanted some nostalgia in their games
Omg this gave me the sims 2 FEELS I love this game like a literal family member 😭
"Am I stressed? Yes. But I'm also having fun", is the best summary of playing the Sims 2 imo
you can place objects without snapping to the grid by using a cheat :)
Should we mention the 'setQuarterTilePlacement' cheat or...
The Courtyard Oasis pack also reminded me of that couch!
build idea!!! you put everything you need to build a house on a wheel then spin to get an item. however many items are on your list is how many of that item you need to place (ex. if it lands on bed and there are 10 items on your list you need to put 10 beds) then spin again and do 9 of that item!!
I've learned so much about building in the Sims 2 with this video, thank you so much! 😭😭 Also I genuinely love that build so much 😊
ive literally been working on my portfolio for uni for 12 hours today so this made my dayy ahh
Holy shit I do that thing where you put it off because you're afraid to see it end too!! Thank you!! I feel so validated right now; omg. I do it with video games mostly, and will start the game but refuse to finish it for months and months on end. If it's a series, I won't finish the last installment. Wow, I'm so excited to hear that other people do that too!
I went to bed watching your Sims 2 letsplay hoping for more, and I wake up to this, continue spoiling us with this masterpiece of a game please and thank you
I am currently stuck in an Australian Covid lockdown, been down for 3 weeks.
This is the first video of yours I have watched and you made me genuinely laugh. Cheers babes.
It's only been a month since I switched back to sims 4 from sims 2 and yet I feel nostalgic.
I forgot Family Fun Stuff!! Wow what a throw back. I used to do my entire house with the castle furniture lol - would love to see you try this in og Sims! That’s a true nightmare lol
I would love to see this in the sims 4! I always LOVE when you do anything so it’s not too much building for me 🥰
This truly is a mutual parasocial relationship because the burst of seratonin I get when you upload is unparalleled 😭💕 I was never even that interested in the Sims before I started watching you, you're just genuinely such an amazing creator and you bring so much comfort in my life and I'll stop rambling but we appreciate you so much hen 💕
(And by not interested I mean the Sims always seemed too expensive to me as a kid so I just watched my cousins play and now that you're dragging me into it as an adult I guess it's time to sell my soul to EA xx Worth it 💕)
We are always sending positive thoughts to Plumbella because...life. SHE Always asks how We are Holding Up. LOVE that for us all.
