Heh, yeah that's one reason I've turned down EA's offer to make me one. Just not into the idea of branding my videos like that, and the Game Changers contract has a number of stipulations along those lines.

"attending classes is not only somewhat boring but rather confusing as well since indication of how you're performing at any given time is not clear at all. My first semester did not go as planned" Wait, I thought The Sims was fiction
"Higher wages, more vacation days, quicker advancement, all are guaranteed, so long as you graduate with a degree of distinguishment. And that's how you know the Sims is pure fiction." Oof!
Yeah, it's kind of hilarious given what Clint is does and especially since he made a detailed vid on how to record computer monitors. Professors over there are all hacks!
This pack is certainly a far greater improvement than Island Living and I finally felt buying a real expansion pack this time like back in the Sims 3 days. Really hoping future packs will follow this one's footsteps. Also, a superb review as usual, Clint!
Island Living was a game pack marketed and sold as an expansion. It was not worth $40 as there just wasn’t enough new gameplay to it. DU definitely improves on that. It’s a proper expansion and I’ve really enjoyed it. I just hope there aren’t *too* many future packs still to come. After 5 years of this game, shouldn’t EA be thinking about TS5 by now? I know I am...
I actually bought island living and university at the same time and love island living and found university boring. Maybe I should check it out closer. All I saw was boring dorms with nothing to do.
I made this comment soon after hearing that exact part, in fact it prompted me to listen to the rest of the video while imagining that he's talking about real life and not a game, and ALL the rest of the video was very comical in that context. Seriously, try it, because there's some other things that he didn't intend to be a commentary on real life, but it's funny if you imagine it was. I just wanted to let people know what I enjoyed about this video.
Yes!!! I am deaf and appreciate the captions being correct for once. More people need to do this or UA-cam needs to improve their garbage auto-generation. I would watch UA-cam more often if there wasn't garbage auto-generation or more people would put effort towards adding the captions.
I've recently been trying to get my sims to live on a budget. I forgot how frustrating it is. I want to redo the house but I spent $2,000 on the kitchen alone!
Finally someone got footage of the freaking repoman sheesh.. now I hope they add burglars now that we have the repoman since they basically used the same animations.
Yeah I was beginning to wonder if they were actually in the game, took a while for them to appear! Turns out they don't show up until a few days after your sim graduates, so there's no need to worry about loan payments until after graduation. Prepping for The Sims 4: Get Robbed pack.
@@LGR Lol ah okay that makes alot of sense, was wondering why no one had any footage yet. I really do feel the burglar is the next npc we'll get, they have the break in system already with vampires being ingame and now that the repoman is here, they should be able to do it now. Burglar active career lol? I'd pay money for that
Funny, when I watched the review of the Sims 3 university pack I was just entering middle school, now watching this one I'm nearing university age. Funny how time goes
damn man, couple of years back i still jokes around and hanging out with my highschool buddies. And now here i am working on my paper exam to submit for my professor. its funny indeed how time goes by
Why do I feel "LGR marrying a robot" is something we'll hear again in a couple of decades? Can't wait for "Upgrading my robot wife with woodgrain plates!" video on LGR circa 2040.
As a non-american, yes. I don’t pay directly for my education, since it’s provided, so it is fun to have those challenges without losing actual money ☺️
Yah, I got my BA for free. My highschool exam results were good enough to get state financed place. I'm thinking of major (free, of course), but I doubt it will help me.
In Denmark, university is not only free, but the state also pays you to study, so you don't have to work while doing your degree. So yes, very different.
Will Clauson so you wanna say that playing the other games of the sims is *hating???* are you kidding me? How is that hating?? How? Do you even know what *hating* means?? I'm just doing what i like and I don’t like the sims 4 so I don’t play it. The only one hater is you cause you said you hate people like "me" so you hating on me and that makes you a hater.. quarantine is making people really crazy these days damn..
Will Clauson I'm so done of people replying angry at me while i'm just commenting a normal freaking thing and just living my life.. you just could've replied on the commenter but no you guys go like snakes comment on my reply and leave.. it's like you guys leave a potion and go.. the heck is wrong with people these days god fucking clowns

I came across your channel back in either 2010 or 2011 when I was looking for a review on one of the early Sims 3 packs. At that time I wasn't looking for anything in particular other than someone to tell me what was in the expansion and if it was good. Well you filled that requirement and more by not only being informative but by also being hilarious. After that you were my dedicated Sims person and since 2010 or 11 I would go to your channel exclusively when I wanted to know about the new games. Well as the years have gone on I've gotten more and more into the Sims so now I watch other channels as well to figure out tricks and hacks and watch build videos and all that. But until super recently I only ever watched your videos when it came to reviewing the new games,noone else's, but since they've taken away your early review privileges because you were pointing out genuine issues, and since I'm more on top of getting the games as soon as they get out I have started to watch other reviews. I've got to say that I was super lucky to discover you as the first Sims review channel because even to this day your content is leagues and leagues above everyone else's and even if the review isn't positive you always make me laugh. Also your non sims content is also great. P.s. sorry for all the run on sentences.
Most realistic moment I've had in Discover University was my sim's classes being 5 minutes apart and on the other side of campus. Reminded me of the good old days of racing across an entire park that spanned several city blocks to get to a class.
That moment when LGR makes me straight up feel like a senior citizen. Thank god this young whippersnapper helps me decide what packs to buy. (Okay, LBR I eventually buy them all anyway because I'm in a constant state of MUST COMPLETE THE ENTIRE SET but that's not LGR's fault.)
Lol the sims disappear when walking into the rabbit hole buildings. WHY TF, the rabbit holes in Sims 3 you see them actually opening the door and walking in. Little details like that piss me off about the Sims 4.
I’m actually glad that the classes are rabbit holes as the outside class part sounds so stressful with being hungry all the time, not having enough money and having to do all the studying and HW. Going to class just adds more work for the player so when I get the pack I will get stressed out to get to class on time and study enough so when my Sim goes to class I can just relax for a bit.
You know what- I don’t even play sims anymore, I just watch your reviews because your voice is nostalgic and reminds me of times I waited on your review so I can buy the next sims 3 expansion. But this review is giving me terrible flashbacks. I’ve been out of college for a year now and this addition of loans, book fees, and microwave/cafe food is making me feel physically ill 🥴. Almost hitting too close to home but I guess that means it’ll be one of the better expansions. Edit: still not buying it though.
When I had sims 3 the university expansion was my absolute fave, so naturally I was excited when this one came out for TS4. My god I've never been so disappointed and annoyed at the money I spent. The concept of uni life is nothing without the open world we were treated to in TS3. Almost no point in playing since my loading times between every place take 30 seconds each, and I ended up taking my sim out of uni on the third day to return to their life as a shut-in. All I'm hoping now is that EA sees what we've all been saying for years and applies it to the sims 5 when they make that :////// big meh. Thanks LGR for your dedication the the series even though churning out lazy doo-doo is all the franchise seems to be interested in these days!
Although I admit I'm not really into The Sims so I'm not the best judge of these things, but I never understood the whole wanting cars thing. What actual purpose would a car have in the game since you basically teleport to places that aren't in walking distance anyway. It'd end being more of a cosmetic addition, unless they made a whole expansion dedicated to it that completely overhauled the transportation aspect of the game. Now a whole new car themed expansion I could understand and if done right could be awesome IMO. They could call it "The Sims: Road Trip" and be all about cars, going on road trips and traveling with them (Maybe even include public transportation), getting driving/car related jobs (Bus Driver/Mechanic), etc. Talking about it now, I'm actually pretty surprised they never done something like that before..
@@Aevilbeast Even if you couldn't drive them, which we can probably admit isn't gonna happen no matter what, I just want my sims to _have_ a car. They look cool, they let me spend money when I have too much, they overcompensate for my Sims' gaping insecurities. What irresponsible multimillionaire is complete without an expensive and unnecessary car collection?
@@incognitoburrito6020 i mean I get you. With all the luxury furniture stuffs in the Sims 4 being nothing more than a way to create a sense of progression and, cough, player satisfaction and fantasy fulfillment, why not cars? Although it has to be said that a car functioning like a statue is very disappointing to me. Nevertheless, i won't be playing TS4 so this doesn't affect me
@@incognitoburrito6020 Yeah, they can have a ton of car options, garages for houses, pimping out the cars, and maybe even a map designed for car races (with a car racer career?) and let you show off your car to impress other sims.
This pack was my favorite since seasons. It added a necessary difficulty element to the gym, and yes there are bugs, but this is the first sims pack where I can ignore said bugs because it’s so good
I recognize what you're saying about not being able to track your progress. The sims 3 had that and it saved me so much time studying..! Now I'm just constantly studying. 😅
"Higher wages, more vacation days, quicker advancement are all guaranteed so long as you graduate with a degree of distinguishment... and thats how you know the Sims is pure fiction." I chuckled and a single tear ran down my face.
yeah in the sims 3 the were really creative honestly, they made like a 4 completely unique expansion which no one really expect, and even with a returning expansion they'v shaked things up a bit, but in sims 4 they're straight up lazy and even split one expansion into two (sims 3 late night, that one expansion is still better than city living and get famous combined tho)
I really like Discover University. My sim is in the Distinguished Degree History program at University of Britechester. I only have one semester left, and I live on campus. Don't forget to apply for scholarships(a tip is to max out on a lot of skills, as many scholarships are based on skills)
Have you ever done a tally of how much you have invested in The Sims 4? It would be fun to have a cash counter that increases with each new video. Fun for us, I mean.
So I can ignore my 42 thousand dollars of IRL student debt to relive a simulation of college and accumulate another 40K of virtual college debt? Sounds perfect!
Sims Machinema The only reason I can only get to 4 Generations in 3 is because it won’t load after that point... 4 requires playing it, which isn’t fun.
When I played Sims 3 Univeristy Life in Middle School and High School, I thought it was awesome. Now playing this actually being at university can be so relateable it just makes me sad.
@@tnfsg1866 Shit I have it installed now. Besides the naughty AO features WW has and allows for, it actually has some cool features that should be in Sims 4 proper tbh. Particularly the attraction system, which was (in a way smaller way) in Sims 2
Wait.. so they don’t have lectures? Like the ones in sims 3 that weren’t rabbit holes and that you’d always see Richard Randall strolling around in 😂That was probably the most satisfying thing, writing on the whiteboards and shit
im subscribing its hard for me to really appreciate other sims content creators due to thier "bright" personality but your calm and straight to the point i like that great video
I know no one will care but my favourite Aussie artist, Mallrat, was asked to record a simlish version of her absolutely amazing song “Charlie” for the University soundtrack and it’s amazing. Simlish versions of songs are always so weird and yet, so charming haha
I'm not even kidding, for my birthday earlier this year I watched your review for Get to Work before buying it. I only trust LGR's opinion after all :)
What a great pack they finally have made here. Theres hasent been a pack this good since get together. I believe the next one should be like sims 2 free time. Hobbies and activity based, so they can ree add enthusiasm and maybe even interests.
The new robots are pretty neat on their own. If I had this game, I would totally make a Dr Steel sim, build a bunch of robots, and try to slowly assimilate the town.
Great, now I can live the anxiety of being at university when I want to relax from the anxiety of being at university.
Same 👌🏻
... well, was. Until the coronavirus sent us home 🤷🏼♀️
Laurel Gray I really felt that 😭
then don't buy it...????
Simply_Unicorn it was just a joke bro 😂👍🏼 It adds a lot more depth to the game, and it’s not all about taking those classes 👍🏼👍🏼
Yeah, dint know why people always depend to have a university expansion
Only the OGs know not to buy a pack without hearing the review from our LGR first!
Honestly!
Exactly!!
Facts
Specifically waiting for him before I decided to get it
Agreed
"Or you can take the aunt Becky approch and try to bribe the admissions office." I'm wheezing omg
That was a golden moment, it got me ear-to-ear.

how realistic...

Love the Boards of Canada shirt. Best group ever.

Going to class just adds more work for the player so when I get the pack I will get stressed out to get to class on time and study enough so when my Sim goes to class I can just relax for a bit.
You know what- I don’t even play sims anymore, I just watch your reviews because your voice is nostalgic and reminds me of times I waited on your review so I can buy the next sims 3 expansion. But this review is giving me terrible flashbacks. I’ve been out of college for a year now and this addition of loans, book fees, and microwave/cafe food is making me feel physically ill 🥴. Almost hitting too close to home but I guess that means it’ll be one of the better expansions.
Edit: still not buying it though.
I would love an expansion pack named Get to School. And you can really go to school and watch the teacher as they teach you new things
or you can be the teacher
Teehee

Mechanic: ''Uhm... There's some sticky white stuff on the circuit board. Do you happen to- Oh...''
And while the robot repairman is on campus he can explore new career options to get him out of cleaning splooge off circuit boards 😆
Finally a reliable source 😩
Instead of studying for an actual university, I am watching a reviewer play a simulation of university life ... >.
When I had sims 3 the university expansion was my absolute fave, so naturally I was excited when this one came out for TS4. My god I've never been so disappointed and annoyed at the money I spent. The concept of uni life is nothing without the open world we were treated to in TS3. Almost no point in playing since my loading times between every place take 30 seconds each, and I ended up taking my sim out of uni on the third day to return to their life as a shut-in. All I'm hoping now is that EA sees what we've all been saying for years and applies it to the sims 5 when they make that :////// big meh. Thanks LGR for your dedication the the series even though churning out lazy doo-doo is all the franchise seems to be interested in these days!
EA: "Now your sims can go to college."
Me: "Cool, can I buy a car now?"
EA: "Hmmmm... No."
The Ranger Gamer the sims won’t have money to it due to loan lol
Although I admit I'm not really into The Sims so I'm not the best judge of these things, but I never understood the whole wanting cars thing. What actual purpose would a car have in the game since you basically teleport to places that aren't in walking distance anyway. It'd end being more of a cosmetic addition, unless they made a whole expansion dedicated to it that completely overhauled the transportation aspect of the game.
Now a whole new car themed expansion I could understand and if done right could be awesome IMO. They could call it "The Sims: Road Trip" and be all about cars, going on road trips and traveling with them (Maybe even include public transportation), getting driving/car related jobs (Bus Driver/Mechanic), etc. Talking about it now, I'm actually pretty surprised they never done something like that before..
@@Aevilbeast Even if you couldn't drive them, which we can probably admit isn't gonna happen no matter what, I just want my sims to _have_ a car. They look cool, they let me spend money when I have too much, they overcompensate for my Sims' gaping insecurities. What irresponsible multimillionaire is complete without an expensive and unnecessary car collection?
@@incognitoburrito6020 i mean I get you. With all the luxury furniture stuffs in the Sims 4 being nothing more than a way to create a sense of progression and, cough, player satisfaction and fantasy fulfillment, why not cars? Although it has to be said that a car functioning like a statue is very disappointing to me. Nevertheless, i won't be playing TS4 so this doesn't affect me
@@incognitoburrito6020 Yeah, they can have a ton of car options, garages for houses, pimping out the cars, and maybe even a map designed for car races (with a car racer career?) and let you show off your car to impress other sims.
This pack was my favorite since seasons. It added a necessary difficulty element to the gym, and yes there are bugs, but this is the first sims pack where I can ignore said bugs because it’s so good
Ah, yes. Now my sims can flunk out of college and owe thousands of dollars in loans with no degree to show for it, too!
yeeessss
College dept never felt so good!
just like real life!
It's like I'm really there!
I recognize what you're saying about not being able to track your progress. The sims 3 had that and it saved me so much time studying..! Now I'm just constantly studying. 😅
I actually like The Sims 4 University better because of that it has that extra feel tension which I love
"Higher wages, more vacation days, quicker advancement are all guaranteed so long as you graduate with a degree of distinguishment... and thats how you know the Sims is pure fiction."
I chuckled and a single tear ran down my face.
I’m waiting for the Sims 4 team to come out with an “original” expansion pack.
7b7Ben whoa what a concept that they will never get!
yeah in the sims 3 the were really creative honestly, they made like a 4 completely unique expansion which no one really expect, and even with a returning expansion they'v shaked things up a bit, but in sims 4 they're straight up lazy and even split one expansion into two (sims 3 late night, that one expansion is still better than city living and get famous combined tho)
7b7Ben
Everytime they tried the community screamed at them for packs like university and seasons
Illukos just like how they have cats and dogs and then my first pet stuff is separate like was that actually necessary??? hahaha
@Will Clauson that's influenced by strange town from sims 2 (cant remember exactly what the town is called)
I really like Discover University. My sim is in the Distinguished Degree History program at University of Britechester. I only have one semester left, and I live on campus. Don't forget to apply for scholarships(a tip is to max out on a lot of skills, as many scholarships are based on skills)
Literally was waiting and ignoring all uni news just for this vid!!
I still think the sims 3 is infinitely better.
RazorEdgeRequiem always
Even The Sims 2 is way better!
RazorEdgeRequiem ok boomer
Jk
I don't really like the sims 3
Even the sims 1 on ps2 is better.
"Face to face interaction"
Now that was a great visual for that line.
Have you ever done a tally of how much you have invested in The Sims 4? It would be fun to have a cash counter that increases with each new video.
Fun for us, I mean.
CaspisSinclair27 EA thanks us all the way to the bank.
If anything, LGR was able to get a few free packs from EA so he did not pay everything for it unlike in the Sims 3.
LGR reviewing another sims 4 pack
Me: “ahh shit...here we go again” *cj voice*
So I can ignore my 42 thousand dollars of IRL student debt to relive a simulation of college and accumulate another 40K of virtual college debt? Sounds perfect!
42k holy shit
If they kept the "Get *blank*" title theming they had in the beginning they could have called this one "Get Educated"
Get Schooled
Get stressed
The fact that the Robot was flirting with the microwave was just way to funny to me 💀
I was considering buying this pack at the release but I knew I just had to wait for your review before I handed over the cash.
Black friday and cyber monday are almost here! Stick it out until then and you could save some money 😉
Jabby The Hot Thanks for the tip! I usually try and wait for the sales anyway. $40 for an expansion pack is always going to sound ridiculous.
I've been looking froward to this. Clint/LGR's reviews are the best thing about Sims 4. *Grabs popcorn* .
Goddamn, THEY JUST KEEP COMING
But the new servo/sim/plum bot or whatever it's called now looks cool
2:46 i love some of the classes in this game: "secret" herbalism, writing sadness, bowling 101
I didn’t even know it was announced let alone released, but ok.
I cant believe LGR actually bought the textbooks and still failed a class
I don't know why, but I found this a lot easier to get into than University for Sims 3.
The Atomic Cherry still shit
so finally a university expansion eh? I feel they have become less exciting ever since the Sims 2.
University was super useful for legacy families. I can't get past the 3rd generation in sims 3 or sims 4 without getting bored...
Sims Machinema The only reason I can only get to 4 Generations in 3 is because it won’t load after that point...
4 requires playing it, which isn’t fun.
CarthagoMike you are correct
"I'm curious to see what's cooked up next." Probably The Sims 5, with another three years until that university pack.
I’ve been checking UA-cam everyday for your reviews. I’m glad it’s here!
Just out of curiosity: what did you study at college, Clint?
Graphic design!
Makes sense
Ah, it shows! It explains the quality and composition of your videos, title screens and the like.
When I played Sims 3 Univeristy Life in Middle School and High School, I thought it was awesome. Now playing this actually being at university can be so relateable it just makes me sad.
and playing it while done with university, makes it awesome again. with a bit of sadness.. :'(
...Of course you have a Boards Of Canada t-shirt. You lovable bastard.
Do y'all think he uninstalled WickedWhims just for this video as well?
Cida Sanctus 🤣🤣🤣 your comment killed me
I bet everyone installed WickedWhims on their Sims 4 at some point
@@tnfsg1866 Shit I have it installed now. Besides the naughty AO features WW has and allows for, it actually has some cool features that should be in Sims 4 proper tbh. Particularly the attraction system, which was (in a way smaller way) in Sims 2
I installed it and had to remove it shortly after because my Sims liked each other too much and would screw themselves to starvation lmfao
@@NatDenTorrens You can turn off autonomous sexual requests. I'd also turn off autonomy for selected Sims just to be sure lol
Wait.. so they don’t have lectures? Like the ones in sims 3 that weren’t rabbit holes and that you’d always see Richard Randall strolling around in 😂That was probably the most satisfying thing, writing on the whiteboards and shit
They're going to milk the Sims 4 as long as they can, aren't they.
They said they still have like 3-4 years of Sims 4 content ....so...yeah.
@@terrancesilvermistbenjamin9864 I hope they aren't serious cuz it would be hell
I imagine Sims 5 will have all the same shit too whenever it comes.
I heard that EA is planning for more expansions after University, Sims 4 might more exps then Sims 2/Sims 3 combined so yes in a way.
I feel like this pack was pretty good tho
Someone needs to make a mod that allows you to interact more in the classes such as going inside. This could be similar to the school mod
I can definitely say now after playing it a bit more, this pack killed my game boner for the Sims. Officially on a Sims hiatus.
The base game is flawed, no expansion can save that. People are finally realizing lol.
Game still feels lacking and superficial somehow, I basically play the Sims 3
Make a better expansion pack ??)
im subscribing its hard for me to really appreciate other sims content creators due to thier "bright" personality but your calm and straight to the point i like that great video
I know no one will care but my favourite Aussie artist, Mallrat, was asked to record a simlish version of her absolutely amazing song “Charlie” for the University soundtrack and it’s amazing. Simlish versions of songs are always so weird and yet, so charming haha
OMG WHEN THE ROBOT PUT PERFUME ON FOR THE MICROWAVE!!!!!!!!
I'm not even kidding, for my birthday earlier this year I watched your review for Get to Work before buying it. I only trust LGR's opinion after all :)
Oh congratulations to SimLGR for getting married to “She”❤️
As soon as the pack was announced all I could think is "I can't wait for the lgr video"
I am so thankful you do these reviews, I swear to god, helps me so much
What a great pack they finally have made here. Theres hasent been a pack this good since get together.
I believe the next one should be like sims 2 free time. Hobbies and activity based, so they can ree add enthusiasm and maybe even interests.
The new robots are pretty neat on their own.
If I had this game, I would totally make a Dr Steel sim, build a bunch of robots, and try to slowly assimilate the town.
2019 everyone where not even in video games we can escape student debt
I found the university pack highly disappointing. It seems pretty boring
B H same I want a refund :(
I still want it because of CAS
I find school boring. I want a refund.
(jk school is pretty aight)
B H i was so excited for it but it was so underwhelming
I like University, but it's still 6/10
The fact that it's an LGR review that makes me want an expansion more than I initially did is proof that we've entered a topsy-turvy timeline
Yes ive been waiting patiently for this! Thank you king, tbh only once ive seen YOUR review I decide if im getting the pack
