An hour?! She spoils us.
yup
Yeah and she just started doing these complete playthroughs which I am very very happy about.
Yes, I love when Kayla does play throughs.
100%
Ahah I just wrote the same 😂😂 I am hypedddd!!❤🎉
I love it when The Sims acknowledges creators in cute little ways like "Humphrey Co" or the default cow plant name being "Little Simsie"
Wait the default cowplant is called Little Simsie!? That is so awesome!!
@@lali_lali_lalililsimzee (i think)
@@lali_lali_laliand the cowplant terrarium in paranormal is default named mini simzee
@@marblefanboy7724do they name anything after any other creators or just Kayla? I barely catch anything lol
@@smilealwaysnatasha3423 there's a hat you can put on the chickens from Cottage Living that is a reference to the hat that Dr. Gluon wears!
Our boy Stanley finally got the recognition he deserves!!!
YESSS ❤❤🌭🌭
who’s stanley??
@@fergamel a hotdog guy, a legend, an iconic hot dog
@@tinysbestiefr he is an icon ✨😍💅
haha, Sapphire was like "Ruby and I kissed and woohooed but then I didn't hear from her... Maybe if I hint I'm into someone else she'll commit" and it totally worked 🤣
😂 I was gonna make this comment, thanks for making it first! 😂😂😂 Just fun little awkward mating dance stuff haha
Fun fact: In Ireland, there is a tradition for woman to propose on leap day. Funny enough, this video was uploaded on leap day, and her sim, Ruby, is a woman!
That’s also a tradition in Sweden! ❤
as someone who has been a professional metalsmith/jeweler for the last 7 years.... this is my dream pack! The sims team missed no details with this one, the animation, cost of things, even the smallest details on the bench, THE TORCH. They had to have someone from the industry work with them on this. I giggled so many times at Kayla's comments, she doesn't even know how relatable they are, especially if you are just starting out in the industry.
I'm so glad you mentioned this! I've noticed the level of detail in a few other packs, and it just warms my heart knowing that took the time to at least consult with professionals to get the details right. It makes a world of difference 🥺🥺
this makes me happy because while i am super critical of this game, i don't always wanna be. they do a lot right. i think simmers are right to have high expectations tho.
Where have you seen the torch? Maybe they use it so quickly I haven't noticed? I haven't seen an animation with a jeweler's torch yet in my gameplay, and a lot of the gem cutting is unrealistic considering some need to be cut with a steady stream of water or they'll shatter. I've also never used an actual tape measurer while making jewelry lol so a mandrel (one for cuffs and one for rings) would have been better imo. I've been a professional jeweler for nearly a decade now myself, so I am really digging this pack and I do love it, but it's not all that spot on from what I have seen so far.
OKAY but JOHNATHON Landgraab???? They adopted a new Johnny??? that is hilarious
ruby and sapphire moved as fast as most sapphic relationships do lol
I love that it's implied that Stanley Humphrey not only crafted the gemology table, but started an entire gemology furniture business so that other sims could craft things with gems. And that it also implies the team's admiration for lilsimsie living her dreams and also letting Stanley turn all his get-rich-quick schemes into livable businesses. Things like this make me love the Sims team (and I hope their higher-ups at EA realize what gems they have working for them and compensate them well and give them plenty of time so they can keep making good content like this pack).
Scientist career is good to pair with this. Lots of digsites and you can ask co-workers for metals and crystals.
"have you considered that you ARE video games?" absolutely sent me
I cannot understate the amount of joy I get from watching 2,5+ hours of content from several different creators on a stuff pack I know for sure I’m never going to buy
Me af! I don’t even play sims but I’m constantly watching creators play 😂
I'll buy it, but I ain't ever gonna use it 😂😂😂
@@tortillachips3911 then why buy? honest q!
@AlexisTwoLastNames I like having options available to me, haha. And I'll probably use an item or two once or twice in the next couple years 🤔😅😌
@@tortillachips3911 thanks for responding cuz i was genuinely curious. :)
Aww if she keep playing with them she should name their baby Garnet!!🥺🥺 Very Crystal Gems vibes🥺🥺🥺
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed that!! ❤❤❤
amethyst cuz purple between a ruby n sapphire sets of moms :DD
@@AlexisTwoLastNamesthe reason they said that is because of Steven Universe. The characters ruby and sapphire are married and when they “merge” they make a character named garnet.
I’m surprised no one said it yet but I kinda love how Sapphire is lowkey buff and masc looking, I love her
THE STEVEN UNIVERSE REFERENCE! I’m gonna cry 🥹
Same here I thought of that too when I heard the names of her sims.
The way it just clicked in my mind after seeing this comment 😭
She made a Garnet 🥰
YESSSSS
came here having this very thought🥺
I'm honestly happy that the jewelry is locked behind actually playing through the pack; it makes it so people have to delve in (to some extent) and explore the features they're paying for. Sure you can cheat the skill level to (likely) unlock everything available for crafting, but you still have to actively produce the items to unlock them in CAS, and that's the fun part for me.
Looks like a fun pack overall, though, and I'll definitely pick it up when I get paid.
Still interested in seeing how well a weenie themed Get Rich Quick scheme would go with Stanley, though, if that's something you'd do :)
Yeah I agree. If one character has unlocked it in your household, will it be available in your household forever? Bc on legacy that also makes it pretty easy (and would be nice)
I totally agree but with one caveat: I would LOVE some cross pack compatibility. I’m thinking jewelry sold at the flea markets and at community centers. I want to be able to buy the jewelry from other sims out in the world
I wish they had a few swatches of the jewelry without the buffs in cas. Like give us a bit at least!
@@karen_lobsteragreed!!
Yeah and for me personally, having easy access to something takes away all the motivation to earn it 🤷🏼♀️
The Gemology Table by Humphrey name.. is so awesome!!!
Ooo! A full 50 minute playthrough of the pack? So fabulous! Thank you! Congrats on being immortalized in The Sims for a third time too!
1st) Lil Simzee Cowplant default name
2nd) Simsie being an official Simlish word for "people" (heard in Simlish songs)
3rd) Humphrey Inc!!
Hey Gren! Nice to see you here!
@@SageArdor Wassup Sage! 🤗🤗
This pack gives Nanci Landgrab breaking into jewelry stores and building her massive jewelry collection and fortune vibes.
I mean, she is a snob and minor crime lord so it makes sense.
me and my coworkers girlfriend were just talking about the new pack today and i asked if she was gonna buy it, she said she didnt know yet, and i was like "same, i gotta see more lilsimsie gameplay of it" and she said SAAAMEEE lmaooo
LONG LIVE HUMPHREY INC !!!
here's a tip, you should join the scientist career if you're a jewelry maker because there are sooooo many crystals and metals scattered around the area around the science lab building. also you can ask your coworkers for crystals and metals
As soon as Better Build Buy has an update to remove the shopping cart button, I'm 100% getting this pack. This is the gameplay I've been craving but didn't know I needed. I *love* collecting materials in-game, but never have anything to really do with them.
i believe the shopping button is in the update but i’m not too sure!
The shopping cart button isn’t specific to the pack unfortunately :(
@@megahnwI'm aware, but I'm not giving EA money while I have to look at a flashing "give us money" button.
@@MargieLeigh3Yup! Which is why I haven't updated my game. So I couldn't even use the pack if I got it atm.
BBB removes the shopping cart from your game now :)
I looooove these longer videos!! I hope your re-record of the video that had botched audio went ok, I heard about the incident on stream yesterday.
idk if its just me, but every time simsie mentions the jet gemstone I think of ATLA 🤣
omg same hahaha
justice for jet!!
"Have you considered that perhaps you are videogames?" had me snoring laughing
Not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but the Sims team did not label some of (most of) the new clothing items under male OR female, so they won't automatically show up in CAS. Make sure to deselect those and see the extra bits. Must have been an oversight on their part 🙄
I just recently started a sort of super sim playthrough raising a kid from birth and trying to do everything in the game. This looks like it'll be really useful for getting the collections tab filled out.
I was sold on this pack as soon as I saw the rugs and all the moon wallpaper and decor in their initial promo!!
I will be buying it no questions asked ! ❤
I kinda wish that the crystals gave off negative things/emotions/moodlets too, like certain crystals/jewelry sets makes a sim unlucky or accident prone or something, I'd literally give my most hated townie a crystal like that😂
Thank you for all videos that you make. I had a really hard, horrible day and cried for several hours and then you posted this video and it helped me to calm down. I’m so happy that I found your channel cuz you are really similar to me in some ways and seeing you doing something that you enjoy gives me the strength to do things that I like. You helps me to not give up. Thank you❤️
I'm sorry you had a bad day. I hope tonight improves and tomorrow is much better.
❤
omg the Stanley Humphrey's gemology table is so iconic! congrats on again being the one engraved in sims forever!
OMG Hear me out everyone, what if Quinn Tinker from the Legacy Challenge was into gemmology 👀 They could make jewelry for their inlaws as a way to ask for a blessing. I think it would be so CUTE 💕❤ PLEASE let lilsimsie see this
EDIT: Sorry that I initially used he/him pronouns. I didn't mean to misgender them, it was just a slip of the tongue (or in this case, fingers) My bad!!!
This is a great idea!!!
Quinn uses they/them pronouns, but I wholeheartedly approve of this idea! 😊
quinn uses they/them
@@SageArdor I'm so sorry it completely slipped my mind! My bad 😅
As soon as she got Shinolite, I was thinking about how fast the 100 baby challenge would go.
I adore the casual representation in all of Kayla's videos, it's so refreshing to see it.
I really like this pack. Not just for the amazing bonuses but for the amount of cluter you can make. It'll work so well with realm of magic. I'm really excited to try it.
Sell the frogs at a 300% mark up. All I could think about lol. Love this video, going to go buy the pack now. Love you!
kinda wish they added a face mask for the crafting animation, i feel bad for the sims inhaling all that crystal dust lol
Tinker should make jewelry! They would be perfect I MEAN PERFECT for this pack!
This video is honestly the best ad for the pack, I'm definitely going to buy it now that I know about all the perks associated with wearing the different gems. It's going to be so good for my super sim challenge save!
I buy everything (and pre order when that's available). I buy even when I'm not into the pack, but I've been stoked since this one was announced. I'm not a crystal person IRL (as in I don't believe that they have special properties) but I do collect them just because I think they're pretty. And while the style of the pack isn't really my aesthetic, I still really love everything in it. I love hobbies! I've also been playing with a sim named Jade completely coincidentally for a few months now (I don't really get a lot of time to play, unfortunately) so she's def got a new hobby!
Jewelry is a much safer heirloom than a fire toilet 🚽 to pass down to the next generations 🥴🤣
This is the right thing I need right now, well I had a pretty bad day. But this makes me really happy, just watching how you play and see you happy. Thank you:) (It’s 9pm in my country btw)
I'm sorry you had a bad day. I hope tomorrow is much better for you
@@poorlittlewritergirl Aww thank you
This ‘ol Ruby Rider is Ruby ridin’ alone
She’s a sturdy solitary stone
This ol' Ruby Rider, not a fusion no more
Now the dirt and the dust and the danger is my new home
I have wanted a pack like this for so long! I am a book lover, jewelry maker, and crystal collector so again, right of my alley!
You need to put the skull in an infants room and there will be so much less stress 😅😂
I probably wasn't going to buy this initially, as I'm not that into crystals, but actually it looks really great in the gameplay
I’m weirdly kinda obsessed with this house, not even usually into dark colors like that but I rly love the wallpaper
getting a werewolf sim to make the moon shaped jewellery or someone giving it to them as a gift 😭 this pack is so cool
I love that you had her plant all those plants you didn’t want just to build her skill instead of having her just read the gardening skill book. 😂
Just bought Crystal Creations only 30mins ago, so excited! Made my new Sim, working on a house right now. Played Sims 4 for some years on and off, but I'm still pretty clueless in so many ways lol Always loved your videos, which are so valuable and fun for me, and this new content has renewed my inspiration. Thanks lilsimsie, you are the best!
That name legit made me so happy oh my gosh. I love when the Sims team puts those kinds of acknowledgements in the game. It would be lovely if you were, you know, paid for your contribution to paid content that they're selling for their internationally successful franchise, but. I still like to see that your influence on the community is acknowledged!
Sapphire’s got muscles 😮 lol
This pack seems fun but I don’t know how much I would use it other than cas or build and buy.
I just bought the pack after watching your review yesterday lol😂😂😂
The way you yelled “DID YOU FINISH?” after your Sims woohooed has me dead

I found that there's an additional top that doesn't have the feminine or masculine tag, but should probably be tagged feminine, and it's a cute little wrap top thing.
I was just thinking of watching the vod- nice timing (will still be watching the vod afterwards)
i love that when you do videos like this, they're really long bc you don't skip over little things and i love the way you play, and the just absolute chaos that happens in some of your games XD
yesssss lilslimey please keep making these!!! I love having these types of videos on in the background while I do homework or sleep.
Just a silly little fun fact for everyone. In my opinion the BEST PLACE to find gems is the park in oasis springs, it takes a moment but SO MANY will spawn and will continue spawning as your sim is on the lot (they’ll even respawn in spots you’ve already mined). I do cheat a little and teleport my sim to the gems directly since it takes too long to run around, but yeah!
Wow I’ve been playing sims 4 for a few years, I’m new to your channel from trying to find Crystal Creations videos (realized how big you are in the community so of course I’m following now) and had no idea about that tree secret glade 🤣 cracked me up because you did it all so casually like… its obviously a well known thing and I’m so in the dark LOL. Love it.
Loved this video, thank you! New fan here!
Hell yeah! First impressions is awesome to see. I love your very thorough and considered reviews This is totally different and always very fun to see
My new comfort content is little simsie videos after a new pack comes out 😊
I love that this video is about an hour long! I have an hour commute everyday to work so this was special getting this full review on the way :) I think I didn't like it first when it came out, but as I see the gameplay and how useful that all is I am more likely to buy this
I love this!! They're super useful for first time players but also to look back on in case there's something you've missed whilst playing
im always happy to be critical of the sims 4 it has lots of issues but this pack is the most excited ive been for one in a LONG time.. i can just imagine all the uses for this from dedicated gemology playthroughs to just a passing skill for a sim to make an engagement ring or a gift or even just one for a perk… im SO excited for this pack
OMG STANLEY IS CANON NOW??? I'm so proud of you buddy ❤❤❤❤
I am loving these playthroughs! Hope she keeps doing them for every pack
The last time I had a pack flood my mind with ideas was seasons as holidays absolutely sent me.
There's so many options, so much gameplay, I am REELING rn.
Will be getting
When she named then Ruby and Sapphire I screamed "STEVEN UNIVERSE?!"
Loved this! I really enjoy the concept of this pack. I like how you used it too. Great proposal spot! I would love to see you do the generational passed down jewelry concept playthrough!
I’m almost more excited for Kaylas long review videos when new packs come out than the actual pack!! Loved the rent pack video and this as well ❤ but I do love the packs as well
I’ll definitely buy it, just not right now. I think it sounds like an amazing pack and something I would really like but I feel like I haven’t used the other expansion packs enough to justify buying another one
Honestly, I think Stanley should be a base game occult
I bought the pack this morning, I have yet to play with it, mostly because I was downloading mods. I had to recently go through ALL my mods because one thing was messing up my new Sim, she didn't have a face. lol. So for hours I had to remove and slowly put back mods until I found the problem. So I haven't had time for game play but will definitely play with this tomorrow. It looks so fun.
Bless Kayla for filming this, bless Dan for editing this, and bless Hope for doing the closed captions for this ❤❤
I love this pack. I always had a hard time figuring what aspiration to put fir my sim, I usually go for the collector one, but this gives me the better option.
Honestly I only wanted to buy this pack because of the build items, but the gameplay looks really cool! And if we can unlock all the jewelry in cas then that's a huge bonus too, they look so varied and pretty!
Having Stanley reference is enough reason for me to buy the pack 😂😌and my name is Rubi but with a i
oooh it kinda reminds me of the sims 2 ability to buy and put on jewelry and ive been wanting that feature in ts4 so bad for so loooong!!
I wish this house was on the gallery, I love it!
Same! I love it so much I’m going to try to recreate it
OH MY GOD THE BOOKSHELF WITH A LADDER!!! I genuinely had little to no interest in this pack but I guess I gotta buy it now 😂
I am definitely buying this. The collecting part of sims has always been my favorite. I also want to play as the American Girl of the Year for 2024 and she has a lot of accessories that remind me of this pack
This pack looks soooooo fun! I can't wait to get this stuff pack when I have the time!
This pack is quite literally been the only one I’ve wanted to buy as soon as it came out !! It’s so fun
This is right up my alley and I cannot wait to purchase it!!!!!!
i bought it immediately, the perks of those crystals are waaay too good lol
Great video. You sold me on this pack. I’m about to buy it right now using your code ❤.
It’s so funny seeing her so excited
I love your work! I hope you have an amazing day!
I'm so happy for her and the Humphrey reference 💕
i've never realized the train at 8:30 before it's crazy
love the long videos!!
I probably won’t buy this pack but always enjoy a simsie video! The furniture looks nice
I'm so excited to see this pack in use with Not So Berry and the Legacy challenge! 👑
This is by far the best stuff pack the sims has ever made in my opinion! I'm in love and have been wanting to get all the crystals cut like this!
something tells me that stanley will be getting rich quick by making jewelry
I'm obsessed with this, I wasn't even aware this was coming out, now I can do my acutal job while I'm gaming!!! XDD
Another trick for boosting your crystal tree quality is if you have cottage living! If you have a golden chicken or you eat a plate of golden eggs and toast, you can use golden pulse on any plant (i.e the crystal tree) to immediately make it perfect quality!
