James I think I got an interesting challenge for you! Instead of building a single house that 8 Sims can live in, why not make 8 trailers on a single lot? A mini trailer park! I think it has some potential like maybe some fancy nice upkept trailers and a few run down trailers, I think it would be fun to watch for sure.
omg this is a great idea how cool!
Yes! Sims 2 apartments has a trailer park and for the wheels they used the decorative wall wheel, that would be very interesting to see in sims 4
oh! Id love to see him build a multi home lot like that too. that'd be really interesting
i have one i’ll upload it if y’all want. i have one trailer my sim lives in and she’s like the land lord and just a bunch of roommates living in the others
Don’t mind me doing that right now
Why was I getting so stressed when he was going to put couches next to the kitchen instead of a dining table?
I‘m glad I‘m not the only one. It was bugging me so much
Damn, same. It was stressing me out so bad
Same, I was screaming
Oh my god me too. I was yelling about how there was nowhere to eat
Most of it stressed me out 🤣
James: debug is cheating
**lilsimsie has left the chat**
🤣
needmesomepie ha!
Haha very funny, lilsimsie should do a challenge where she makes a house under twenty thousand dollars without using debug
Landscaping will be minimised by A LOT
😅
@Birb x Rick Astley 😂😂😂 i can hear it now
"what's going to make this house look better, a tree or a shower? they've got a sink they don't need a shower too"
"who needs an oven when you can just have cereal from a cheap cooler, see now we have flowers"
**looking at a barely functional house with a tree and two flowers** "i came into this so confident"
would definitely be a fun video😂
very true
James: I think we need some greenery in here
James: Paints the couch green
Me: face palm
Cameron Hankin I read your comment as it happened😂😂😂
time stamp? i think i passed it and didn't realize xD
*has 70 simoleons left and doesn't add plant*
Lol
@@gracewheeler3347 they were to cover the cheaper lights.
something about the way james gets so excited about "BATUUUUU" hits me every time i swear what a total cutie
I think the same. James is just so sweet.
BIG MAN JAMESSS
I call it journey to
Butt hole
Please how can I find you on sims 4
IKR!! 😆
As someone who lives in a house with six people, two bathrooms aren’t enough XD
Me too, i live away from hom every weekend cause i prefer living with my aunt. Two adults 5 kids(inl. Me) and a baby. Its hard going out for dinner or lunch cause if yoh stuff yourself you wont make jt to the bathroom XD
When I was a kid, my childhood home had one and a half bathrooms, and four bedrooms- and there were seven of us living there. I remember it being a bit tough sometimes - but we managed just fine😂
I lived in a house with 6 people and ONLY one bathroom. It was a NIGHTMARE
Agree
I have 1 bathroom with 5 people, was 6 but my oldest sister moved out.
Challenge idea: take one of your “solid color houses” and renovate it by ONLY changing the swatches on the existing furniture so it becomes colorful
AND use debug items at that
I see u everywhere
Awesome idea. It might break him to actually use colors. Hope he does it!
Wow you are committed to this challenge, I've seen your comment a lot recently
I see you everywhere
Did anyone notice that the single bed room off the dining room would have made a great double room with ensuite?
You should do a post-apocalypse build, with Eco Lifestyle and the hated Star wars. Like an underground, off the grid, beat down, self-sufficient with steampunk/industrial inspi' build. Make it an appartement complex, or a build for a big family.
Unrelated but I would also love it if you did a Medieval Dynasty Gameplay !!!!!
For post apocalyptic you should add strangerville.
I would love that, everyone I normally watch is ignoring Batuu and I just wanna see stuff 😂😭
alternative title: James second guessing his decissions for 23 minutes straight
Idk if I'm the only one, but whenever I hear the energetic "Hey guys, James here today!" I feel the urge to reply with "Hey James, guys here today!"... it doesn't make any sense but somehow my brain always wants me to say that...
Nah I feel the same, I just get a wave of happy energy, that’s why I love James so much
Hey today, guys here James!
SAY IT
I'm obsessed with this thought and will in fact be saying it at the start of all his videos now
I’m very proud of you for putting colours on the walls
James: *making $20,000 8 sim home
James: *makes the house massive
Me: as Simsie says, make it smaller
That line of rooms and beds right at the beginning gave me flashbacks to the Sims Prison series from way back.
omfg i thought it was just me it made me wanna go back and watch it
Yes like a row of prison cells with dodgy beds in each one
But if you made a household with 8 sims, wouldn't you get more starting funds...?
Exactly what I thought. It's 32000 simoleons I thought
For 8 sims you do get more funds. James doesn't really play with families at the start so probably didn't know.
Yes good point!
or he does realize that and is keeping it under 20k as a challenge....
If you start as a couple and naturally have the babies you wouldn't have the extra money. I'm playing that way in a legacy style.
James: Everyone has bins in the kitchen counters, not just on the floor
Me: *cries in poor*
same I feel like thats the most rich people thing I've heard all day lmao
Me: lives in a house made in the early 2000s where trash compactors were too expensive to do/no one has their trash cans inside the counters.... :P
I know there is such a thing as a trash can built into the counter, but I assumed what he meant was that real kitchen counters have space under them and people often put a trash can inside of them?
Mine's on the floor. You can only have a little bin in the counters, mine is a 13gallon x2 trash & recycling bin. It is snazzy.
@@decemberelegy Why? If your trash is lidded (better because of vermin attraction) it doesn't get smelly.
Hey, James, with all the new packs that have come out, maybe it's time to do a ranking video again, maybe? I do value your opinion A LOT... No? Just me then...?
You’re not alone, I would love an updated ranking too! 👌🏻
James: 'this house doesn't really look good'
Me: 'looks like all the builds I make, but okay'
don't let lilsimsie hear you say using debug is cheating XD
He's not wrong though ^^
@@aloeme oh I agree
LilSimsie often says it is cheating. She just doesn't care. XD
if you look up starter home style in the dictionary, it is said that this house is pictured
James: thinks 3x3 bathrooms are small
Me: regularly shoves a bed in a 2x3 room and calls it a bedroom
Me too. 2x3 is a perfectly reasonable size for a small single bedroom. Sometimes I'll even cut out one corner if it'll allow for a bit of extra space elsewhere... the sim gets a single bed + one activity (stuffed toy / easel / etc) in the 5 tiles, that's plenty! 😄
(I even tried out a 4 tile bedroom once - in the impossible challenge - but ended up deciding that nothing but the bed was just too cruel. So I upgrade it to 5 tiles... 😂)
I think it’s just you James, most homes come with some nature that your not paying for. Debug is the best!
I think it would be fair to use trees, bushes, and flowers from debug, but any potted plants, planter boxes, or indoor plants would be paid for. That seems to be how it usually is in real life.
Yeah in real life weeds grow for free!(;
As someone who works for a home builder... You definitely are paying for landscaping.
@@Petsrme307 they said some
I like that it's big enough for player to fill in with stuff as they progress. However, the wasted $$ from the extra shower & random corner table in the bedroom bothers me. Those could be removed & instead get a toddler potty, a toy, and at least decor item. Then it's a more complete house.
8 people share one shower? Good luck.
@@mandowarrior123 but there would still be the tub - 8 sims sharing 1 shower and 1 tub isn't so bad
@@jesscarrier4180 by game logic you could save on most all things. The idea is to make something resembling a functional house.
@@mandowarrior123 well yeah, but your comment seemed to be about how tough it would be to have 8 sims and only 1 shower. I was pointing out that it's actually 1 shower and 1 tub for 8 sims - as far as hygiene goes, that probably wouldn't be too difficult to manage. I agree this place doesn't really resemble a functional house all that well though.
James: "more material for less money." Me: "ah, like swimsuits."
do you mean less material for more money?? is usually what people say about swimsuits lol
I prefer live build more than speed build. I love your builds. Please do more videos of them. 😁
Semaj: *puts a bin in the bathroom*
Sims going to the bathroom all the time to wash their plate: "Yeeesssssss Semajjj!!!!!"
Ok when you put a toddler bed I feel like you need to put down a bathtub *and* a toddler potty.
One thing I've been wondering for a while now, especially watching lilsimsie's builds and now this, is it normal to put carpets underneath dining tables? I never would do that, imagine all the food stuck there. I get this makes Sims houses more structured, but I find it totally odd and unnatural.
To prevent scraping on floors from chairs and stuff yes it’s normal to have an area rug with a tight flat pile under a dining room table. The type of rug I describe is pretty easy to clean w/ a good vacuum and carpet cleaner and you should replace it more frequently then an area rug elsewhere because it will wear.
@@skyechimes658 but that's what those little felt stickers are for, you just stick them to the chairs and job done, there's absolutely no need for a rug.
Maybe that's just a cultural difference thing, I'm in Europe and we usually have wooden or tile flooring especially in living areas, thinking about it, I'm only used to rugs in front of sofas and maybe a bed.
Carina S yep now that felt tips are a thing you don’t see this as much anymore, but it’s super common in certain design aesthetics from before those were a common thing so people keep doing it. Also some people worry about foot traffic wear on their floor (this is why hallway and stair runner carpets are a thing too even though they are basically a tripping hazard imo). I personally am not a huge fan of area rugs in places I might trip on them but you asked why some people do it.
We have kitchen table that doesn’t have a rug under it, tile floors. But there is a formal dining room that has a rug, wood floors. Heavy duty chairs and table in formal so it just makes more sense and looks nicer to have the rug. Only used for special occasions of course lol
Putting a carpet under the dining table helps make that area feel separate and centered as its own space
James: Putting the bin in the bathroom is weird
Well the sims plan to use that sink anyways so it's convenient
Now do the opposite. 1 sim 100k house
that is too easy
The budget for 8 sims is like 32k, I wanted to see people build a 32k starter home for 8 sims cuz even in the game we don't have that
Glad to see you're doing good! When will there be more Super Sim? 🥺
Try a "decades" build challenge or more budget build challenges! I really enjoy your build content
James: it's not that bad, it's not that good either.
Literally me on everyone of my builds 😂
OMG the bunk bed house is still there!
Me: What are you doing
James: just a little pizzaz nothing too fancy
I like it! With toddlers having everything on one floor is ideal, and I like the layout. It was a great call not to make it super small. Tiny homes are cute, but big family's need more space.
Definitely prefer real time builds!!
Dilemma: which video to watch first... James' or Deli's urghhh
Switch every day maybe?
Deli's one came out wayyy earlier tho
Ka Hei PUN umm it was posted 1 minute after?
@@jadeellis383 oh. Ok
When is the new episode of the star wars gameplay coming out? 🥺
You could have saved so much money but for some reason you made the house HUGE
ikr! So much wasted space
Is it weird that viewed from the back, reminds me of pre-fab churches I used to see in the USA south when I was a child in the 80s? I know super specific, but the colors, the columns, the stick out porch... it's spot on.
Yes, please keep doing these real time! Also I’ve noticed that you been using more colors in your houses. Is this a Deli influence? 😏
Hear me out. The secondary bathroom door should've gone in the living room, and then you could extend the island to be attached to the wall, and take one away and put a bin on the end.
me as an architecture student watching this : *stressed out* no, um where should i start
For the record, a family with 8 sims at the start would have more money than 20,000....
Can’t wait for rags to redevelopment miss Ambrose
still better than any EA build
when is rags to redevelopment coming 🥺
Hey James, at first I couldn't tell why I sat so much more relaxed watching, but right you are, I like the real time way better than the speed builds. Speed builds make me hyperactive and tired at the same time. Love the video, I'd have liked the house better with some warmer colours though.
Will you continue the star wars gameplay?
Every time I see anyone put a bathroom and kitchen side by side I get so stressed imagine cooking and someone poops like… imagine the kitchen smelling like that 😭😭
So are we just giving up on Trash's dream to become a sith Lord?
"I know we have all of these free plants and stuff but using it feels a little cheaty"
Kayak:
i really want to download this build but i'm not sure where to find it
I love these real time builds especially if it helps with editing.
James you should do a challenge like this but cheating! Like use debug for cheap or free items, or use the tiny home cheats to place walls so it doesn’t count as a room/tiles
Challenge idea : now use a random amount of money to do a first pass renovation.
The way you would do if you were playing and your sips got into some money so you can afford to jazz it up a bit but not a complete renovation
Love your user name! :D
this house feels unnecessarily spacious. i kept waiting for him to move some walls in to save money towards the end
next you need to try out with only 10000, tbh i don't know if its possible but thats the point
Probably? One big bedroom with a line of single beds, just minimal items to get by. Would be even less esthetically pleasing than this one.
I'm tempted to give that a try. If you didn't waste so much space like James did - less bedrooms and a much smaller living area, it might be doable. Especially now we have bunk beds - all 4 kids will be sleeping in one small room 😂
Since you threw out the restricted pack you should’ve saved money and got cheaper doors🤦🏻♀️
The layout gave me major sims 1 vibes with how spacious and practical of a cheap bungalow it is. I kind of love it 😊
I love your builds, and the commentary. I appreciate the real time ones, because u cant see the process in a speed build. Thank you for that! ❤❤❤
James never uploads often anymore, last video was over two weeks before this one. Sad, cause I’m waiting for rigs to riches series
The ultimate challenge:
Starter home for 8 sims in The Sims 1
Classic Aussie suburban house
Nah, Aussie houses aren't that big, unless they're 6 bedrooms. Unless I grew up poor...
@@audreydoyle5268 True. The triple frontage and all the bedrooms down one side reminds me of almost every house where I grew up, but like 3 bedrooms, not 6. The bit out the back even feels like a classic extension.
i am triggered by the back patio, could have at least added some flooring
I hope you are doing well 😊 I love the live builds and I hope to see more
Will you continue the Planet Zoo series? I really, really enjoyed that
I really like the color palette challenge you did a while ago if you wanna bring it back!!
It's not boring, it's minimalism :3
Yeeeees building James is my most favourite 💚 Honestly you have the best taste of all simmers i watch. 😃👌
The bin had me think: what if they had "Aunt Flow" in the sims😂😂
Challenge: Eight-Sim starter home with base game only.
When it comes to garbage cans you can also use the discover university garbage chute that costs 0 and is "bottomless" in play mode so your garbage doesn't overflow and doesn't give sims a negative buff. also saving you the 220 c:
I have a suggestion for your website! I would love a random household generator! Is it a single sim or friends or relatives? Is it a single parent or two? How many kids do they have? How many pets? What age are they all? What gender are they all? I always want to build households but I’m never sure how.
Omg that's such an awesome idea
I do love this type of video instead of the fast forwarding type. The slow way I get to experience the changes as soon as they take place and tell you what I think in my head ;-)
You could’ve used island counters and had a few bar seats in the kitchen
Is it possible to build starter home for 8 sims(people)??? My grandgrandgrandmothe living in one-room house with her 10 siblings and random chickens and goat: AM I JOKE TO YOU?
How about a "fix my build" challenge. I really miss when you toured others builds and I'd love to see what your mind could come up with with a shell challenge. Honestly, I think I'm probably going to fix this build. You hit it on the nose when you said it was too big. You have an outdoor space that you did nothing with and if the actual house was smaller, you could do a ton with the outdoor space. WALLS ARE EXPENSIVE YO.
James: debug is cheating
Lilsimsie is mortified
please note that even on such a strict budget and 8 sims, you're still a better designer than I am 🤦♀️
I miss your videos James! I know your busy with programming/coding and you enjoy playing Minecraft as well, but a few build challenges every now and then would be nice to watch, I really enjoy your commentary and buildstyle. Hope to see you soon(er) !
The hole thing looks like the first floor of a building
I prefer live builds with commentary, it's much more relaxing and sort of puts me in the moment, like it's happening right now while I'm watching. Also it's interesting to see how you decide what to do, change and fix whilst commenting about it and without being it on a very high speed. Hope my answer to your question is helpful. Kind regards 👋😊
"Ah Batuu!!!"
Him complaining about his build, and I'm over here like... " James? Let me introduce you to my lack of a sense of proportions and love of medium height walls that would make you cringe...."
I have a hard enough time building a starter home for a Sim or two! Stop making me feel bad 😂😭
If people built their actual IRL homes on the sims and uploaded them to the gallery would you renovate them without changing the build in any major way? ( realistically)
I have 8 sims and I make them all sleep in the dungeon. They're only allowed outside to tend to cult leaders garden
Q: Can 8 sims live in a house under $20,000?
A: yes, but at what COST?
😅😅😅
Im just enjoying builds, one way or another. So these are fun, but if you feel like switching it up that’s good, too ((:
... it was mildly disturbing to watch you build by individual room first 😂 but not a bad build with the budget you had, I like that you didn't jam pack the space
Appreciate that you avoided debug items! It's actually quite annoying to download a home with a ton of it. This is a great 'spruce me up' starter.
I can’t believe you almost had 2 living spaces instead of a single dining table, sims in the sims 4 love dining tables. I don’t think they’ve ever willingly used the sofa in my game.
This house is kinda cool- it really feels like it's a starter home to put all your stuff for your sims in it. Sometimes starter homes are just too nice for my sims
I may be wrong but if you have more than 1 Sim moving into a home...don't they get more than 20,000? xD
I miss your builds! Please do some more!
Also challenge idea if your interested: Pick three random buy objects and build house themed around them.
If he just made the house a little smaller, 100% of his issues would have been fixed
Im confused... can someone explain why the prices of stuff changed??
when i was younger, my family had to fit 8 people into a 3bed 2bath house and somehow your builds recreate that feeling of spaciousness but also tight space to me, and it fills me with nostalgia a lot
