I think the reason you struggle with using maximalist stuff like movie hangout because you’re afraid of making it “too busy”. You should try leaning more into it. Fill the place up with chaotic patterns, colors, and clutter. The weird and over the top stuff only looks weird and over the top because it’s surrounded by by more plain and neutral stuff.
I think the reason they didn't is because a majority of players have city living, and romantic garden was free a few months ago. not to mention people would've been furious because of how broken wedding stories was/is. they need to make money, and the features that come with these packs bring a lot of new date options and gameplay! ^^
@@remicelyn8902excluding broken packs also explains why they didn’t include dine out. compared to movies and bowling, dining is a way more recognizable/classic date activity but we know how that pack is
@@simplymonica6888 If you think about it, the bundle is not so random. It was definitely created for upcoming EP, and they mentioned one of its main features will be planning dates. It can get pretty boring if you don’t own many packs, so they created this bundle where you can get lots of activities for less money 🤔
My boomer (in generation only, mostly) dad to me, a "geriatric" millennial a few years ago. "Are you ever going to get a boyfriend?" Pause where he remembers I'm pan "or girlfriend?"
@@mayadrachmann5138 I was proud of him in the moment as I had just 'officially' come out (though my mom's response to my declaration of 'I'm not exactly straight' was 'I'm not exactly surprised.') And he remembered!
Tbh the name “Get dating” makes sense to me because it’s like places and things to go dating. Bowling dates, movies at home date and a cafe date in an old European town? Idk but it made sense to me
I’m surprised how many people are confused. Although maybe they haven’t heard yet that one of the main features of the new EP is date planning, because this fact makes this bundle pretty thoughtful
I think because she is a builder her mind goes there and also mostly thinks of making residential lots, but this would have been a great chance to use these packs to make a perfect date community lot!
yeah i think the logic holds up too. i honestly found the vibes really cute when the build items are put together. bright, flowery, modernist decor in an old quaint house? that's like the dream.
I think this is a good concept. I definitely think you should do more builds using the EA-made bundles as the pack combo so people can get an idea of which bundle might be best for them. Especially during sales. (I agree that this bundle is a kinda weird combo though)
I agree the build a bundle is great but I like the idea of themed bundles with kits as well. In a perfect world we’d get a free kit with the build a bundle but c’est la vie
I think this would have been such a cool chance to make a “perfect date” community lot with all these packs. I don’t build much, so these packs made sense from a gameplay standpoint for me right away!
I would really like to see a traditional tudor house with a more closed off floorplan as it is very common in Germany. Only in newer houses we have somewhat open floorplans but we have generally more closed off spaces. Especially the kitchen is seperate to prevent smells in the rest of the house. Though, it could be a bit weird in the Sims.
Hold up. You’re telling me that get together comes with NINE different fences?! Whaaaaaaaa?! I mean, I knew that pack comes with a bunch of random things, but NINE?! 🤯
Movie Hangout and Bowling Night really make me happy as packs because EVEN KAYLA, THE QUEEN OF NEUTRALS, FRIGHTENED BY BOLD COLORS, has at least some options to build a house more to her liking.
honestly i really like this bundle. i bought it last night, and ive never owned any of these packs previously other than get together. im really enjoying how many more date spots there are. super fun, even if theyre a little...mixed style-wise
@@remicelyn8902 Oh okay, it's all good. I am pretty sure steam doesn't charge you if you already have something but I am not sure about other platforms.
I think romantic garden and wedding stories get bought more often than the older packs (I only started playing recently and have only bought newer packs because the older ones have way less content/not worth price) so it's smarter for them to bundle the ones that most people won't already have or would only buy if the price was greatly reduced. I wouldn't have ever bought these packs otherwise lmao
Besides the irl practical reasons people mentioned, it’s possible they are also drawing a distinction between “going on a date” activities and packs and “planning a wedding” activities and packs. Going to a bowling alley or movie theater, or cafe or nightclub (all lots from the packs in the bundle) are common places to go on a date. It’s less common to take a new date out to a wedding chapel.
Challenge idea, each room is a different world, you have to build in the style of the world you spin for each room and this includes the exterior of the room (possibly the roof but idk how well that would work)
I know this bundle is probably for date activities more than anything with the bowling and like the DJ booth for like a nightclub but it definitely is a weird build combo so props to you for even attempting it 😂
Hi simsie! I just wanted to say that I watched ur videos daily at the lowest point in my life, and they were truly such a moment of happiness in my otherwise bad days. I watch you less often now, but I just wanted to say that I am eternally grateful to you for helping me through that time ❤❤
This might be one of my favorite exteriors I've seen you do! (I'm not saying the interior is bad, but these packs are a difficult combination to work with.)
I liked the super modern window u had on the black box of the house, maybe u could make a super modern desert home for it? like base the whole build around it
Sometimes I wonder if you memorized every lot the sims have xD could be a funny idea for a quiz, guessing where a lot is? Or maybe a boring idea, no clue, but I remember the Sims Geoguessr being really fun!
This would be such a rad layout for a haunted house if you styled it differently. Or funnier to style the bottom floor the same and just have a spooky attic lol.
Love the build!! You really brought the packs together. But I totally agree that this is a random bundle of packs... I've also noticed that the new Lovestruck pack is $70 NZD - I am speechless!! New expansions are usually $50 NZD. This is the most expensive pack that I've seen, so I'd be expecting some big stuff to come from it. Which I'm sure won't be the case.
I love this build! I never would have put these packs together. For a future video please could you do another build with these packs but make like a converted old tutor style build a cinema/bowling alley inside I think that would be so cool to have in windenburg
Okay so I know it’s kinda a silly ask but I would love to see a video where you intentionally use every single pack, kit, etc to make a house. I think it’d be pretty challenging to make it cohesive and I think it would be a really fun watch! Anyways keep up the amazing production and thanks for sharing your creativity with the world!
One of my friend got the sims 4 for Hanukkah this year from a friend, but the gift was the packs Dream Home decorator, cats and dogs, and Dine out. Her friend said she picked those 3 because they are her fave packs.
Oh my god. This is perfect for my plum gen. I wanted to move her to windenburg and do ye aulde style house with modern box (like cottage living/bramblewood/henford of bagely has but windenburg style) And the purple glass on the door 😍
I love the movie hangout stuff to make a house for a cheerful hippie. I hate how she bashes my favourite items and keeps making it white. Lean into it simsie!
I think building a community lot would’ve been better to showcase the items from each pack! But you still did great with what you had (or lack there of)
Im just gunna say it! The mom who would own this house *definitely* would have a son who loves bowling And i also loved bowling as a kid, on a league and everything! 😅
I'm so confused. The sale was on my X box 2 days ago, however when I went on it yesterday it wasn't there but I saw on the community that it was on till 11th July, and the website says that the sale is on. I really wanted horse ranch discounted
As an Xbox player, I get excited over new bundles because we can’t build our own. Even if it’s not something I probably will purchase (like this one because I already have get together) I do like getting new bundles.
I’m sure someone has mentioned this, but would you build a community lot with this bundle so the sims who live in the house can go on a bowling movie date!?
its so frustrating to me when she picks a really interesting bit of furniture and then chooses the worst swatch. There are so many interesting colors in these packs and the whole house is still beige
@sophiag612 Bust the Dust is the only kit that I don't have. I just tried. There no where to enter a code. I think it's because I have EA's premium feature that gives me 10% off. So they probably don't want to give out extra for a creator code. Otherwise, I have no idea. If there is no place to enter a creator code when I buy the new ep I will try and find out why before I buy it.

i was goiung to comment the same ☝trust your wildest ideas simsie
I think the romance bundle should’ve been City Living, Wedding Stories, Romantic Garden, and Simtimates.
I literally came to comment almost the same combination minus City Living. The EA dating bundle seems random.
I think the reason they didn't is because a majority of players have city living, and romantic garden was free a few months ago. not to mention people would've been furious because of how broken wedding stories was/is. they need to make money, and the features that come with these packs bring a lot of new date options and gameplay! ^^

Another thing you could make with this pack combo is an old movie theatre, recently renovated to have a bowling alley with a cafe!
That would be pretty cool!
i wanna try that!!

This was such a good opportunity to build a pub with bowling and a small movie theater attached
Would love to see you create a community lot with these packs! Maybe a nightclub that has a movie space and bowling?
Honestly I think a woohoo pack will interest a lot of simmers, similar to if they did a death pack.
If they do a burglary pack, I might even finally buy a pack
@@DizzyBusy That is a good idea, they could add a new job/side hustle to it.
It would be cool to see you make a commercial date spot with bowling and a movie theater in the same build!
I’m surprised that romantic garden stuff wasn’t in the pack same with my wedding stories
It is weird, but I think they didn't do Romantic Garden Stuff because it was available for free like 6 months ago.
I think romantic garden and wedding stories get bought more often than the older packs (I only started playing recently and have only bought newer packs because the older ones have way less content/not worth price) so it's smarter for them to bundle the ones that most people won't already have or would only buy if the price was greatly reduced.

Wedding stories probably wasn’t because it’s so broken and they refuse to fix it.

I said the same thing but then I remembered I think her monitor messes with the colors lol
She’s forever stuck in NSB mode.

This genuinely might be one of my favorite builds you have ever done its so pretty
I agree! I love the bright orange! I wish she would’ve even went with the orange tile in the kitchen! 😂
It's almost magical how she can decorate every house almost the same using different packs 😂
A bowling kids room? It’s Mega Famous Celebrity Bowler Tommy Oakes’s childhood home!
The sims selling a weird combo of packs in a bundle is such a sims thing
I love how she always asks “is this too much? It’s too much to commit right?” And I’m like NOPE 😂
simsie is the only one who can make me excited about sims 4
real
FACTS!
Each time after her video i want to get into the game again.
That upstairs would be a nightmare to play in. It drives me crazy when the roof clips/shows like that 😩
“There is a distinct lack of bowling in this room” 😂

These packs actually work really nicely together! It makes for a super funky and unique style!
I love the interior decorating!! So cute
This is handsdown one of my all time favourite builds, you did amazing using only those packs. The house looks really pretty.
I liked the super modern window u had on the black box of the house, maybe u could make a super modern desert home for it? like base the whole build around it

You inspired me to make my own channel 💓 thank you for always being consistent with uploads!
This would be such a rad layout for a haunted house if you styled it differently. Or funnier to style the bottom floor the same and just have a spooky attic lol.
Can you do a cowboy/western town build (extra challenge: not like a desert but, if you look at examples on rdr2 you will know)
The new EP seems like a wonderful whims made by EA
Love the build!! You really brought the packs together.
But I totally agree that this is a random bundle of packs...
I've also noticed that the new Lovestruck pack is $70 NZD - I am speechless!! New expansions are usually $50 NZD.
This is the most expensive pack that I've seen, so I'd be expecting some big stuff to come from it. Which I'm sure won't be the case.
I really feel when Kayla wears green like that dark green shirt she has on, it really compliments her skintone and everything.
I love the bundle-challenge idea
I only have like 4 packs with cabinets and it's city living, vampires, realm of magic, and island living, which is very unfortunate 😭
I really like the funky colors! The teal and orange were a cute combo
It's a cute build but... why making fake walk-in wardrobe if Get together has a perfect size in-wall wardrobe???
I really love when you go out of your comfort zone with builds. I always think they turn out looking the best!
I love this build! I never would have put these packs together.
For a future video please could you do another build with these packs but make like a converted old tutor style build a cinema/bowling alley inside I think that would be so cool to have in windenburg
As someone who LOOOOVES to build , but has zero time anymore with a 7 month old, these videos scratch that itch for me lolol 💚💚

Every time Kayla makes a room with big windows on all sides I just think 'Aren't you from florida? that would be so hot!"
Wait! There isn’t a single bed in any of these packs, yet it’s a dating combo!?!🥴 Woohoo🤔 well thought out combination🤣
I actually like the mixing of colors!
Console players, City living is FREE for Playstation plus subscribers at the moment too!!!
Bump
tommy oaks is THRIVING with the bowling night content in 2024

How she just gave up on the bedroom 😂
One of my friend got the sims 4 for Hanukkah this year from a friend, but the gift was the packs Dream Home decorator, cats and dogs, and Dine out. Her friend said she picked those 3 because they are her fave packs.
I may try this pack build myself!! Sort of imagining a bowling alley/bar hidden within a renovated old Tudor :)
Oh my god. This is perfect for my plum gen. I wanted to move her to windenburg and do ye aulde style house with modern box (like cottage living/bramblewood/henford of bagely has but windenburg style)
And the purple glass on the door 😍
i think the upstairs would’ve worked well as a lofted movie theater too :)
14:30 “eughhh…brother, eughhh”
Simsie, when your game freezes do not click on ittttt (much less multiple times), that just makes it worse 😩
Finally a simsie video I have all the packs for 😂
The ad I got at the start of the video was for the bundle. Lol Love the video!
When you said "I know it looks terrible..." I thought it looked amazing!
I love the movie hangout stuff to make a house for a cheerful hippie. I hate how she bashes my favourite items and keeps making it white. Lean into it simsie!
Towards the bed is actually the best orientation for a bedroom mirror 🤐
Was on one singular loading screen for the whole video 🫡
I think building a community lot would’ve been better to showcase the items from each pack! But you still did great with what you had (or lack there of)
The craching that happens in this video happens to me all the time when I have the directX 11 active in the game.
Im just gunna say it! The mom who would own this house *definitely* would have a son who loves bowling
And i also loved bowling as a kid, on a league and everything! 😅
"How could you?" when the neighbor started mowing the lawn. 😅
I didnt realise this video was one minute old 💀
this looks like an interesting video for sure lol.. not sure what im signing up for ahaha
and ummmm??? TWENTY-THREE SECONDS AGO?!?! wowzerssssss!
Get woohooing!
You made a fake closet using the pack that actually comes with closets?! 😅
I bought this bundle earlier today, and I went straight in to build a Tudor house
I’m sooo sad cuz I bought a bunch of packs yesterday and if I would’ve known I could get you some commission I would’ve totally done that❤❤❤
