I always wondered if Jonny Zest was the original Malcom Landgraab from Sims 3, but he changed his name. Maybe he was embarrassed for being a Landgraab or they shunned him. Because in Sims 3 Malcom is a good kid with the good trait, but in Sims 4 he isn't. So I can see either Johnny changing his name to Johnny Zest or Nancy disowning him and with her money, removed him from the family. Then they had a second son and named him Malcolm to replace Johnny or to like mock him. I dunno.
Johnny Zest is also presumably his stage name but overall, yeah, I've always vibed with those theories. I also recently realized having two sons named Malcolm could be a very light reference to either Pete & Pete (two brothers named Pete lol it was a wacky, weird show on Nickelodeon way back when, one of the few really great live action ones) or maybe Malcolm in the Middle. And then someone else just recently realized in another video's comment section that Zest is similar to Test, and Johnny Test was a cartoon character semi-parody of Johnny Quest, but like... all of this is very cursory and surface level at best. I think the devs at Maxis had a really good idea going, even though the career changes and stuff might've been a necessity, but the devs weren't given time to properly create any relationships outside of CAS, there are no memories to give better clues to their vision as in Sims 2 and nominally Sims 3, and thus RIP the idea. I REALLY hope that if they ever do a Landgrab family refresh, they fix Johnny Zest and his family tree as well. Bare minimum that's what he deserves although I suspect he's living a much better life on his own whenever any players recognize his potential and slap their headcanons onto him! I love thinking Johnny is just a very kind-hearted soul who wants to see good changes in the world, on top of trying to get his career off the ground, and that went against his family's capitalist oriented methods for becoming richer while the poor become poorer.
There’s actually a Malcolm Landgraab in The Sims 2 Open for Business, but I think the consensus is that Malcolm is a common name for their family, that TS2 Malcolm is not the same as the other ones.
You did a good job with making it feel both cold and clinical, and fashionable as well. It feels like a rich person’s house that’s both impressive but incredibly uncomfortable. It’s awesome
having two pools and a huge grass lawn in an arid climate is the exact kind of water waste and disregard for the environment I expect from the Landgraab family
Love this build! BTW- Oasis Springs is Tucson, Arizona. There are Saguaro cacti present and those are only native to the Sonoran desert, meaning that it has to be either Tucson or Phoenix. Phoenix is a major metropolitan area, so there you have it!
@@t00sa The original golf had to have been much more intense. Since it was played in Scotland in the sand dunes next to the ocean Now its just... Well its not even a sport to be honest
I have a friend who plays the townie families as royal families and the Landgraabs are the rulers of Oasis Springs. Nancy is the Queen, Geoffrey is the Prince consort and Malcom is the Crown Prince and he had an arranged marriage with Sofia Burgson to save her from he evil stepfather the king of Windenburg Jacque Villiariall. She adds so much depth to the game and actually makes me love Nancy, didn’t know that was possible until I met her 😂❤
I gave Nancy a whole secret villain lair in the basement. In my mind jeff is a fine upstanding man with an upstanding family, except nancy is in the basement with a whole get famous film style villain lair.
Iirc from in game lore, Geoffrey is the actual Landgraab descendant and Nancy married in. I like to think that it was arranged in some way, like Geoffreys parents saw their sweet boy and thought "no way he's going to carry on our legacy" and found him Nancy
whenever i play the landgraab household i turn nancy and geoffrey into some sort of preppy desperate housewives version of morticia and gomez addams lol. nancy is the supreme mastermind that runs her questionable schemes in the basement of her unassuming mansion while geoffrey saves their family name's reputation by being a highly regarded legal enforcer that's sworn to hunt down the mysterious criminal that t3rr0rises the city when he's actually in on it with the woman he loves to the moon and back. and malcolm of course is their entant t3rr1ble, failing school with no chance to make it to university even with mummy dearest's bl00d money / bl4ckmail / whatever fun shenanigans usually get you into the medical school of your desire, plus he's a drXg-pushing teenaged dad of at least three that he knows of (and none of his offspring with the same girl, obviously, duh, he's a serious player after all) and about to eventually take over the position of oasis springs' very own drXg lord and his c4rtel. oh and of course they're tight-knit in their mission to permanently get rid of that inconvenience called johnny zest. what else would your deep connections to the dark net be good for after all, duh.
As someone who learned English as their second language, oh boy am I glad that that's the language we had to learn in school. It doesn't have gendered nouns and verbs are easy for the most part (except for the irregular verbs but that's just a list of vocabularies to learn). Compared to other languages (cough, Danish and other european languages) English is rather easy to learn, at least in my opinion. And I also like it a lot. Of course I am slightly biased since I've been learning English properly at least since 4th grade and I really enjoy learning and understanding it. I've gotten to the point where I can read, write and understand it like I can my first language but I also know a lot of people who have been learning it for as long as I have and really can't wrap their head around how the basic grammar works. It's quite interesting to be honest.
FakeGamerGirl at the start of her channel: *apologizes for rambling* FakeGamerGirl now: *apologizes for not rambling right away* Tells you the mentality of your fanbase and that we all love you very much ❤️
13:57 Actually, this does happen sometimes with half siblings where the father was a cheater... So I live near this one town where back in the 80's and early 90's, one guy knocked up 80% of the women in town, so everyone in town turned out to be related... I'm sure at least one cousin couple got married and had kids without finding out.
Sounds like my father, he'd hump anything with legs. Apparently he was good as a friend, but he was a terrible husband or boyfriend and crap father to most of his kids. We're good friends with the one half sister, haven't met the others but they definitely are out there.
My lore is that Johnny is the bastard son of Geoffrey and was kicked out by Nancy when she found out, and because she never liked his hatred of the "family business". He goes by his stage name to distance himself as a Landgraab. Malcolm is his younger brother who also dislikes things, but has to play along to not also get kicked out or further sunk in, but ends up eventually bailing and living with Johnny. Malcolm is a good kid in Sims 3. Malcolm embraces his hippie vibe and they start up a sustainable tiny home community. Like, the antithesis of their family.
Having Johnny being a love child of Geoffrey completely makes sense. Who do you choose as the mother? I feel like it could be Brandi Broke if she existed in the same universe. 🤔
Aw I like that! It's nice seeing Malcolm and Johnny reconnect! In my game Johnny had a bad relationship with his family and they didn't talk for years, but recently Malcolm and Geoffrey had been calling frequently to hang out! Nothing from Nancy! Johnny had quadruplets with his girlfriend, and Nancy divorced Geoffrey, so he moved in to help. Malcolm visits often and is close with the kids, I've been wondering what he'll get up to next, since he has the Evil trait but autonomously started a redemption arc.
In my save file the Landgraabs underwent serious makeovers (some CC, mostly packs), and I always have Malcolm be a bully of sorts, definetely not liked much by the general student body. He's a part time video gamer, and not in any school clubs, with only a few rich friends. I imagine him to be aro-ace, set him to be so, I just can't see him have any sort of attraction to anyone.. Only out of nessecity. Nancy is top of the criminal career (cheated that, for the story), and dresses very much more business like. Like their Sims3 selves, I made Geoffrey a doctor, giving him much more of a cozy attire, and trying to portray through his fashion that he's warmer than Nancy and Malcolm. I also added Johnny Zest to their family tree, and he was the original Malcolm Landgraab. After pursuing his passions Nancy disowned him (against Geoffrey's wishes) and he went by his stage name, Johnny Zest, permanently. Then the Landgraabs had Malcolm, and Nancy named him that as a sneer to Johnny. I cheated Johnny and Geoffrey to be on good terms, Nancy and Johnny to hate eachother and left Malcolm and Johnny's friendship bar at 0, they don't know eachother. Nancy and Geoffrey married because of an arranged contract, not out of love, although Geoffrey is passionate in keeping their marriage afloat, and due to his effords their relationship bar is at 51.
I love to hear you ramble about stuff And also as a non native English speaker, T is the most confusing letter to pronounce because everyone pronounces it differently and sometimes following my instincts isn’t enough 💀
excited for your tabletop campaign! i only played a little of witcher 1 and watched the show so idk much about it but i'm looking forward to it (are there elves? i like the bits of the scoiatael i've seen)
When I took Japanese years ago, my teacher went on a whole rant about how needlessly complicated English is. Case in point: why is the past tense of "go" "went" instead of "goed?" Japanese verbs fall into like 2 different conjugation groups and then there are a few that stand out on their own. But it's mostly pretty consistent. I don't know why English is the way it is, I suspect it's partly because modern English is kind of a mishmash of different languages all smashed together, but it's weird, lol. As a native speaker, I'm used to it, but I can only imagine how fucking godawful it must be for someone who isn't.
Gurl, you so crazy lmao. Beautiful build by the way. I was thinking about the Landgraabs while I was watching and came up with a crazy scheme for when I play with them later. Nancy is an Alien and she always has been. She married Malcolm because because he owns everything or at least his company does. Johnny Zest is Malcolm's brother or maybe son. Nancy as an Alien wiped the menories of both Malcolm and Johnny. Now her son who is also an alien will one day inherit the world or so she thinks...lol. can't wait to download. 😊😉
I think Oasis Springs is supposed to be Arizona while Willow Creek is somewhere Midwestern, Strangerville is Texas (or Area 51), Del Sol Valley is LA, Windenburg is like the Netherlands, and a bunch of others that I don't want to list rn This remodel is fucking fantastic and you have practically the same humor that I do, which makes me love your channel even more
Willow Creek is based off Louisiana. even if they mangled the shotgun style. Strangerville is absolutely a riff on Area 51. Windenburg is mainly based off Germany. The builds are in a very specific, if once again mangled style. I think it starts with a F? I know werkhaus is in there. And I think the english name is Truss house? Fachwerkhaus??
"Me hungry you give me food" is exactly how English is to md. When you have a very complicated first language, English really isn't difficult. It's just funny. Then again, our schools teach us English from a very early age so that might be why (as early as 1st grade nowadays and some easing into it in kindergarten)
Im learning spanish too and my teacher goes "this is used in latin america but not so much in spain" FYM "NOT SO MUCH"? YOURE TELLING ME I GOTTA MEMORISE WHERE THIS WORKS AND WHERE IT DOESNT??
I was literally doing the same thing the day you posted this. HOW is Nancy a crimelord stuck in her 70s mansion?!?! Isn't she a snobby person? Wouldn't she have some trophies around from the people she encountered through her work? From the CENTURIES of familial wealth? So many questions I needed answered.
I laughed when you talked about the languages and the different verbs 😂. When I was learning English at first it was really annoying that extra “s” at the end of he and she. Oh, just wanting to say something and then pause thinking if you have to put an s at the end… Por cierto, ¡qué disfrutes aprendiendo español! ❤
I kicked Nancy, Geoffrey and Malcom out of their house, in my head I made them go broke and have nowhere to go, so they grovel with Johnny who’s now a famous comedian who I moved to Del Sol Valley and forced them to live in his pool house and I locked all the doors for them so they’re stuck living in this crappy pool house while he’s living large. I made a sorta rival Landgraab family who I moved into their original house.
The first time I played the Sims I ended up evicting the Landgraabs and making and moving in the spouses from Sister Wives. Don't ask me why, except it was a new show and I was fascinated by it. I didn't have any mods or romance cheats back then, so I kept having to have the husband sneak around the house so none of the wives would get mad at him. 😅 I even ended up having him divorce his first wife and marry the 4th one (years before he actually did). God, that was a fun save. 😂
I think you can lose money by just giving a lot to your children or former spouse. So Malcolm could be fooled by a lot of gold diggers. Otherwise, basemental probably has options with gambling for example.
about him/her sits. i had in english class (living in austria) the famous sentence: he she it the S goes with. that's how we got it hammered in our heads. and i can't wait for D&D!!!!
In my save I actually grabbed the alto family (the one you made a while ago actually for the sims 4) and aged Holly alto up her and Johnny are married now with a toddler(the real reason in my save Johnny was disowned)and Malcolm wanted to better himself after meeting Cassandra Goth so I had them secretly date meanwhile,changing Malcolm's evil trait to hot headed and his snob trait to high maintenance but Nancy wasn't too happy when she found out (nor was mortimer) so he and cassandra ran away and (with the help of bella)moved in with Johnny and Holly in a second trailer on Johnny's lot....
i came across nancy in my save and she was mean to my sim. so i had my sim romance geoffrey, woohoo him in the landgraab house, and convince him to divorce nancy. my sim had a baby with geoffrey then they got married. oh also i had neighborhood stories on at the time and nancy kept calling my sim and asking her if she should adopt babies while she was still married to geoffrey. they adopted 5 babies. after they divorced she died. my sim's oldest kid she had with geoffrey aged up to a teen and went to school with nancy and geoffrey's adopted kids. it was very awkward.
I might be being super off topic rn but I just have to share this for some reason. Apparently my game glitched or something and now the Landgraabs in my game are just CONSTANTLY having children. And I mean all the other townies are okay, their families kinda stay the same while the Landgraabs are just out there with TWELVE KIDS even though I keep deleting their children. It's genuinely horrifying when I'm trying to make friends for my sim's kid, I click on a random child and it's like "Who's that kid? Oh, Gregory Landgraab, cool, it'd be nice to be friends with the Landgraabs. And who's that girl? Ellen Landgraab? Okay... And that teen just happens to be... Matthew Landgraab..." The Landgraabs are taking over the world help
I nvr thought about remodeling this house cause i suck at it😅 but in my game i play as occults only. I had Malcom because he thinks hes all that mess with my werewolf. But my werewolf was the wife of underground mob😂 so not only was malcom hated by the humans but now he was hated by the wolves cause the boss bit and turned him. He died not long ago some how 😂
The language rant was so funny because I'm spanish and I pronounce the hard Ts at the end of the words because WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN MAKE SOFT Ts????? English is frustrating because I always think I can pronounce it and then each letter has 500000 different pronounciations and they're all weird 😭 like WHAT DO YOU MEAN READ (present) AND READ (past) ARE THE EXACT SAME WORD BUT PRONOUNCED DIFFERENT. WHERE'S THE DIFFERENCE. HOW AM I SUPOSED TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE English is an easy language but GODS the pronounciation drives me crazy 😭 y momento de apreciación al novio español xd
I unironically love Malcolm after one of my dynasty plays, where he became my poor sim's best friend. Despite his evil ways he was supportive and kind to her, even if she was quite poor when they met. Their children were best friends also. So in my plays he always recognize that his mother is evil and wrong and became a doctor or politician to be more like his father
The glass wall from Twilight, but it’s every wall. I love it but could never live in it. Too anxious about assassins shooting me with crossbows from the darkness beyond the window. Also, I almost showed all my bits to a dude working on the house bc I forgot to draw the curtains tight before changing. Thank god he was up on a ladder and couldn’t see me. That was two weeks ago. I just can’t get used to changing in bathrooms
One of my sims married Malcom Landgraab. I had planned a story about their marriage slowly crippling, and even who would get which kid when they finally divorced… That bastard drowned in a pool party. His wife was left with a ridiculous house, a needy toddler and no job. At least she got to huild a nice greenhouse with the inheritance money!
So I've involved the landgrabs in exactly 1 of my sims 4 stories. It was during a mafia rags to riches challenge/storyline i was doing where an evil teen befriends Malcom at school and Nancy brings him Into the kandgrab hime and into the mafia family whereupon growing up he and Malcom plot to take over the mafia by outingnher ti geofery the secret agent who had to arrest her. Don and Malcom took over the criminal underworld Malcom went into the hacker branch and my Don (my sim) went into the mafia branch.
about the redit story example..... so a couple of 4 years arrange a dinner to indruduce their families. When everyone gets there the mothers were just staring at each other. The mothers of the soon to be married couple (did i mention that the bf was planning to purpose at this dinner?) yea the mothers were cousins. The couple were second cousins. True story, my memaw was also cousins with the mothers, crazy right?
My uncle’s third or fourth marriage was to his second cousin. The family figured it out well before the wedding, but nobody really cared. They ended up getting an annulment after a few months, maybe a year, and it turns out they had never actually filed for the marriage license anyway.
I just started a riches to rags, that's awesome! It has been fun being an absolute garbage person and spending shit loads of money on useless garbage and doing NOTHING to earn it back. The bills for the house alone are awful 😂
geoffrey landgraab won the lottery in my game a few days ago so i’ve decided to do bad things (also you’re an extremely talented builder btw i love when we get to see it)
I thought I was the only person who watched those Reddit Videos lmfao. Honestly though, I think it would be funny to see some of the insane ones recreated in the sims.
YOU WENT THROUGH A WHOLE VIDEO WITHOUT GOING OFF TOPIC?? Nvm I got to the AI voice subway surfer reddit bit - lmfao this is why i love ur channel darling
Talking about nepo baby twitch streamers, he'd be like those influencer twins whose father was an investment banker who embezzled a huge amount which was never recovered & after he was imprisoned they started throwing money about like water. I think they are facing charges on something themselves ATM
As someone whose third language is English, to tell the truth is the easiest language in the world.I started learning it when i was 10 years old, and I mastered it. As for French, I started learning it when I was 6 years old, and until now I know nothing about it.
@@katiyannastivers921 I mean, my first language is Arabic, and it is considered one of the most difficult languages in the world. Perhaps for this reason I find English easy compared to it. Also, I read many novels (manga and manhwa to be specific) and I read everything in English.
15:20 My close friend whos parents came from a different country thought island was pronounced "is-land" and not "eye-land". When she said that I realised that it's fuckin weird that it isn't. Like why is it that when "is" and "land" are slapped together that they suddenly change pronounciation and "is" turns into "eye" EVEN THOUGH WE ARENT TALKING ABOUT EYEBALLS???
Sims should have more ways to lose money. Gambling maybe? I guess the For Rent expansion may help. Just rent a super expensive place you can’t afford or something?
I am a bit confused. I mean, I'm sure it wouldn't be a big deal, but she said we should deliver some Christmas-themed builds. Does it specifically have to be Christmas, or is a generic, festive holiday-build also okay? Just asking for clarification bc I'd rather ask stupid questions than doing it wrong and only realizing in hindsight.

I still don’t understand how they messed up the aesthetic of the landgraabs. I love this renovation.
So many questions about them living trapped in the 70s. Swingers? Is that where Johnny Zest came from?
I always wondered if Jonny Zest was the original Malcom Landgraab from Sims 3, but he changed his name. Maybe he was embarrassed for being a Landgraab or they shunned him.

I like that theory!
I love that !!
I always add Hannelore Landgrab because she is in my sims 3 console ed. And let her become Malcolm's wife with their kid Adrian
Johnny Zest is also presumably his stage name but overall, yeah, I've always vibed with those theories. I also recently realized having two sons named Malcolm could be a very light reference to either Pete & Pete (two brothers named Pete lol it was a wacky, weird show on Nickelodeon way back when, one of the few really great live action ones) or maybe Malcolm in the Middle.

I always add fountains and pools and thirsty looking plants because what's the biggest wealth flex in the desert? Water. Lots and lots of water.
That’s wicked clever and I will be stealing it
This remodel is EXCELLENT. I think you have a hidden talent for modern decor!
Right! It looks straight out of Pinterest!
........hidden??
the landgrabs do not deserve better bro they keep turning off my power 😭😭
It's your fault for not paying the bills on time /jk
It's not their fault they have money and you don't 😂 / ❤
Thats right landgrabs deserve nothingghg
Virtually nothing 💀
Pay ur bills
You did a good job with making it feel both cold and clinical, and fashionable as well.
It feels like a rich person’s house that’s both impressive but incredibly uncomfortable.
It’s awesome
having two pools and a huge grass lawn in an arid climate is the exact kind of water waste and disregard for the environment I expect from the Landgraab family

Oooo i love flora facts 🎉
There’s some inspiration from Palm Springs, California as well if the name is anything to go by.
Two-sun Ari-zone-ya!

Also rich people landscaping is just...
Grass. Miles of grass.
Maybe it's for the same reason they like golfing so much😂

Now its just... Well its not even a sport to be honest
I have a friend who plays the townie families as royal families and the Landgraabs are the rulers of Oasis Springs. Nancy is the Queen, Geoffrey is the Prince consort and Malcom is the Crown Prince and he had an arranged marriage with Sofia Burgson to save her from he evil stepfather the king of Windenburg Jacque Villiariall.

I gave Nancy a whole secret villain lair in the basement. In my mind jeff is a fine upstanding man with an upstanding family, except nancy is in the basement with a whole get famous film style villain lair.
Once I invited Nancy on a fancy date and she stood me up.. I was trying to steal her money but I just wasted my money
I hate that Johnny isn't connected on the family tree...I had a Lounge with a romantic trait....and guess who he was flirting with...Nancy😑
Either The Sims team fixes that in an update or I'm fucking doing it myself with MCCC, that's so gross 🤢
Why would he be part of the family? Just because he got kicked out doesn’t mean that they aren’t related by blood
They lowkey should’ve added the landgraabs on Johnny’s family tree but not for anyone else to prevent that :/
I enjoy hearing you talk about the build and the way you create new lore!
“The Landgraabs Deserve Better” Counter Point. No They Don’t.
Iirc from in game lore, Geoffrey is the actual Landgraab descendant and Nancy married in. I like to think that it was arranged in some way, like Geoffreys parents saw their sweet boy and thought "no way he's going to carry on our legacy" and found him Nancy
I love the recent series you’ve been doing renovating all the townies!!
Giiiiiirl that's such a beautiful house
Now it feels that this family has some cash
whenever i play the landgraab household i turn nancy and geoffrey into some sort of preppy desperate housewives version of morticia and gomez addams lol. nancy is the supreme mastermind that runs her questionable schemes in the basement of her unassuming mansion while geoffrey saves their family name's reputation by being a highly regarded legal enforcer that's sworn to hunt down the mysterious criminal that t3rr0rises the city when he's actually in on it with the woman he loves to the moon and back.
and malcolm of course is their entant t3rr1ble, failing school with no chance to make it to university even with mummy dearest's bl00d money / bl4ckmail / whatever fun shenanigans usually get you into the medical school of your desire, plus he's a drXg-pushing teenaged dad of at least three that he knows of (and none of his offspring with the same girl, obviously, duh, he's a serious player after all) and about to eventually take over the position of oasis springs' very own drXg lord and his c4rtel.
oh and of course they're tight-knit in their mission to permanently get rid of that inconvenience called johnny zest. what else would your deep connections to the dark net be good for after all, duh.

Your Speed Build Saturday is rapidly becoming a 'must see' pour moi. (Speaking of impossible languages.)
In my save file the Landgraabs underwent serious makeovers (some CC, mostly packs), and I always have Malcolm be a bully of sorts, definetely not liked much by the general student body.

Nancy and Geoffrey married because of an arranged contract, not out of love, although Geoffrey is passionate in keeping their marriage afloat, and due to his effords their relationship bar is at 51.
The original build is just so weirdly empty, so much so that you can't even call it minimalism.
Your renovation is so awesome.
I love to hear you ramble about stuff
And also as a non native English speaker, T is the most confusing letter to pronounce because everyone pronounces it differently and sometimes following my instincts isn’t enough 💀
In one of my first saves, Malcolm and Johnny got married. I had no idea they were brothers. 😭😭😭
They deserve to *look* better. :3
(And their house)
I loved the house❤❤
But hot take: I do love the holes on the original roof... IT'S COOL OK SUE ME
excited for your tabletop campaign! i only played a little of witcher 1 and watched the show so idk much about it but i'm looking forward to it (are there elves? i like the bits of the scoiatael i've seen)
When I took Japanese years ago, my teacher went on a whole rant about how needlessly complicated English is. Case in point: why is the past tense of "go" "went" instead of "goed?" Japanese verbs fall into like 2 different conjugation groups and then there are a few that stand out on their own. But it's mostly pretty consistent. I don't know why English is the way it is, I suspect it's partly because modern English is kind of a mishmash of different languages all smashed together, but it's weird, lol.
As a native speaker, I'm used to it, but I can only imagine how fucking godawful it must be for someone who isn't.
You're right. And Japanese is the way it is mostly because it because it was culturally isolated for many years.
Gurl, you so crazy lmao. Beautiful build by the way. I was thinking about the Landgraabs while I was watching and came up with a crazy scheme for when I play with them later. Nancy is an Alien and she always has been. She married Malcolm because because he owns everything or at least his company does. Johnny Zest is Malcolm's brother or maybe son. Nancy as an Alien wiped the menories of both Malcolm and Johnny. Now her son who is also an alien will one day inherit the world or so she thinks...lol. can't wait to download. 😊😉
Nancy didn't marry Malcolm. He's her son. I think who you're referring to is Geoffrey.
I like it. I will admit I can't stand Christmas but if I can think of something as I play I'll see what I can do. Less than a week!
I think Oasis Springs is supposed to be Arizona while Willow Creek is somewhere Midwestern, Strangerville is Texas (or Area 51), Del Sol Valley is LA, Windenburg is like the Netherlands, and a bunch of others that I don't want to list rn
This remodel is fucking fantastic and you have practically the same humor that I do, which makes me love your channel even more
Willow Creek is based off Louisiana. even if they mangled the shotgun style.
Strangerville is absolutely a riff on Area 51.
Windenburg is mainly based off Germany. The builds are in a very specific, if once again mangled style. I think it starts with a F? I know werkhaus is in there. And I think the english name is Truss house? Fachwerkhaus??
@@elvingearmasterirma7241 Yeah, it's actually that! I just googled it and that was the style that showed up with that name
"Me hungry you give me food" is exactly how English is to md. When you have a very complicated first language, English really isn't difficult. It's just funny. Then again, our schools teach us English from a very early age so that might be why (as early as 1st grade nowadays and some easing into it in kindergarten)
Im learning spanish too and my teacher goes "this is used in latin america but not so much in spain" FYM "NOT SO MUCH"? YOURE TELLING ME I GOTTA MEMORISE WHERE THIS WORKS AND WHERE IT DOESNT??
I do actually really enjoy when you talk about the build in these videos lol
I was literally doing the same thing the day you posted this. HOW is Nancy a crimelord stuck in her 70s mansion?!?! Isn't she a snobby person? Wouldn't she have some trophies around from the people she encountered through her work? From the CENTURIES of familial wealth? So many questions I needed answered.
the remodel is amazing! love watching your build videos, even tho i am losing braincells every second i watch you. love you!
I laughed when you talked about the languages and the different verbs 😂. When I was learning English at first it was really annoying that extra “s” at the end of he and she. Oh, just wanting to say something and then pause thinking if you have to put an s at the end… Por cierto, ¡qué disfrutes aprendiendo español! ❤
Oasis Springs is Scottsdale, AZ. Change my mind.
I kicked Nancy, Geoffrey and Malcom out of their house, in my head I made them go broke and have nowhere to go, so they grovel with Johnny who’s now a famous comedian who I moved to Del Sol Valley and forced them to live in his pool house and I locked all the doors for them so they’re stuck living in this crappy pool house while he’s living large. I made a sorta rival Landgraab family who I moved into their original house.
Do they though? Do they deserve better?
The reno was fab, and the reveal with that sexy jazz music was great.
I always relate Oasis Springs to Palm Springs.
Ohh wow! Thank you for the language part! It was soooo funny! My first one is german... 😅😂😂
The first time I played the Sims I ended up evicting the Landgraabs and making and moving in the spouses from Sister Wives. Don't ask me why, except it was a new show and I was fascinated by it. I didn't have any mods or romance cheats back then, so I kept having to have the husband sneak around the house so none of the wives would get mad at him. 😅 I even ended up having him divorce his first wife and marry the 4th one (years before he actually did). God, that was a fun save. 😂
“Most dollhouse like”
My fiance called my sims game playing with dolls and I’ve literally enjoyed it more because of that comparison
Haha (:
I think you can lose money by just giving a lot to your children or former spouse. So Malcolm could be fooled by a lot of gold diggers.
Otherwise, basemental probably has options with gambling for example.
about him/her sits. i had in english class (living in austria) the famous sentence: he she it the S goes with. that's how we got it hammered in our heads. and i can't wait for D&D!!!!
I usually just delete the Landgraabs if I plan on playing a save for a while, I don't like their name.
In my save I actually grabbed the alto family (the one you made a while ago actually for the sims 4) and aged Holly alto up her and Johnny are married now with a toddler(the real reason in my save Johnny was disowned)and Malcolm wanted to better himself after meeting Cassandra Goth so I had them secretly date meanwhile,changing Malcolm's evil trait to hot headed and his snob trait to high maintenance but Nancy wasn't too happy when she found out (nor was mortimer) so he and cassandra ran away and (with the help of bella)moved in with Johnny and Holly in a second trailer on Johnny's lot....
i came across nancy in my save and she was mean to my sim. so i had my sim romance geoffrey, woohoo him in the landgraab house, and convince him to divorce nancy. my sim had a baby with geoffrey then they got married.
oh also i had neighborhood stories on at the time and nancy kept calling my sim and asking her if she should adopt babies while she was still married to geoffrey. they adopted 5 babies. after they divorced she died. my sim's oldest kid she had with geoffrey aged up to a teen and went to school with nancy and geoffrey's adopted kids. it was very awkward.
I might be being super off topic rn but I just have to share this for some reason. Apparently my game glitched or something and now the Landgraabs in my game are just CONSTANTLY having children. And I mean all the other townies are okay, their families kinda stay the same while the Landgraabs are just out there with TWELVE KIDS even though I keep deleting their children. It's genuinely horrifying when I'm trying to make friends for my sim's kid, I click on a random child and it's like "Who's that kid? Oh, Gregory Landgraab, cool, it'd be nice to be friends with the Landgraabs. And who's that girl? Ellen Landgraab? Okay... And that teen just happens to be... Matthew Landgraab..."
The Landgraabs are taking over the world help
Tell me why they have to own an apartment in San Myshuno, my sims kids elementary school, AND my power and water bills tho?
I nvr thought about remodeling this house cause i suck at it😅 but in my game i play as occults only. I had Malcom because he thinks hes all that mess with my werewolf. But my werewolf was the wife of underground mob😂 so not only was malcom hated by the humans but now he was hated by the wolves cause the boss bit and turned him. He died not long ago some how 😂
The language rant was so funny because I'm spanish and I pronounce the hard Ts at the end of the words because WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN MAKE SOFT Ts????? English is frustrating because I always think I can pronounce it and then each letter has 500000 different pronounciations and they're all weird 😭 like WHAT DO YOU MEAN READ (present) AND READ (past) ARE THE EXACT SAME WORD BUT PRONOUNCED DIFFERENT. WHERE'S THE DIFFERENCE. HOW AM I SUPOSED TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE
English is an easy language but GODS the pronounciation drives me crazy 😭 y momento de apreciación al novio español xd
the new pack is made for the landgrabs
I unironically love Malcolm after one of my dynasty plays, where he became my poor sim's best friend. Despite his evil ways he was supportive and kind to her, even if she was quite poor when they met. Their children were best friends also. So in my plays he always recognize that his mother is evil and wrong and became a doctor or politician to be more like his father
I just wanna thank you for thinking about people to whom christmas is a tough time of the year. Not many people do that.
The glass wall from Twilight, but it’s every wall. I love it but could never live in it. Too anxious about assassins shooting me with crossbows from the darkness beyond the window. Also, I almost showed all my bits to a dude working on the house bc I forgot to draw the curtains tight before changing. Thank god he was up on a ladder and couldn’t see me. That was two weeks ago. I just can’t get used to changing in bathrooms
I came here faster then when they kicked Jhonny out-
7:36 Does anyone know what pack this closet door is from? I must have it!! lol
One of my sims married Malcom Landgraab. I had planned a story about their marriage slowly crippling, and even who would get which kid when they finally divorced… That bastard drowned in a pool party. His wife was left with a ridiculous house, a needy toddler and no job. At least she got to huild a nice greenhouse with the inheritance money!
I personally think that Oasis Springs is the Sims version of Palm Springs, a desert city in California
So I've involved the landgrabs in exactly 1 of my sims 4 stories.
It was during a mafia rags to riches challenge/storyline i was doing where an evil teen befriends Malcom at school and Nancy brings him Into the kandgrab hime and into the mafia family whereupon growing up he and Malcom plot to take over the mafia by outingnher ti geofery the secret agent who had to arrest her. Don and Malcom took over the criminal underworld Malcom went into the hacker branch and my Don (my sim) went into the mafia branch.
2 min in a already looks that good? hello? of course you have improved! im loving these ♥♥♥
“Why waste time say lot word when few word do trick?”___FakeGamerGirl, 2023
about the redit story example..... so a couple of 4 years arrange a dinner to indruduce their families. When everyone gets there the mothers were just staring at each other. The mothers of the soon to be married couple (did i mention that the bf was planning to purpose at this dinner?) yea the mothers were cousins. The couple were second cousins. True story, my memaw was also cousins with the mothers, crazy right?
My uncle’s third or fourth marriage was to his second cousin. The family figured it out well before the wedding, but nobody really cared. They ended up getting an annulment after a few months, maybe a year, and it turns out they had never actually filed for the marriage license anyway.
I just started a riches to rags, that's awesome! It has been fun being an absolute garbage person and spending shit loads of money on useless garbage and doing NOTHING to earn it back. The bills for the house alone are awful 😂
I love this series so much. Btw, im one of those who watches and listens to the video. It would feel wrong in any other way.
Oasis Springs gives Vegas outside the strip vibes.
no money, empty wallet, EA slay. I felt that, that was real.
Great end to the day where i finally managed to get out of my depression nest.
geoffrey landgraab won the lottery in my game a few days ago so i’ve decided to do bad things (also you’re an extremely talented builder btw i love when we get to see it)
Malcolm's mansion as an adult could just be filled with paintings and photos of himself as the only form of wall art😂
Gorgeous build, Sarah, but... "I like the bathrooms"? Are... are you OK? Are the Landgraabs holding you for ransom? Blink twice for yes, once for no.
I thought I was the only person who watched those Reddit Videos lmfao.
Honestly though, I think it would be funny to see some of the insane ones recreated in the sims.
Your idea for Malcom sounds a little… familiar (cough xqc)
Thinking the same thing
I always assumed Oasis Springs was either in the Phoenix or Dallas/Ft Worth area
YOU WENT THROUGH A WHOLE VIDEO WITHOUT GOING OFF TOPIC??
Nvm I got to the AI voice subway surfer reddit bit - lmfao this is why i love ur channel darling
WAIT IM A LIAR, IT SOME HOW TIED INTO THE SIMS, WHAT IN THE ADD BRAIN. I am the fool.
Talking about nepo baby twitch streamers, he'd be like those influencer twins whose father was an investment banker who embezzled a huge amount which was never recovered & after he was imprisoned they started throwing money about like water. I think they are facing charges on something themselves ATM
nooo i loved the weird holes in the roof
As someone whose third language is English, to tell the truth is the easiest language in the world.I started learning it when i was 10 years old, and I mastered it. As for French, I started learning it when I was 6 years old, and until now I know nothing about it.
English is second only to mandarin in the difficulty rankings. That's awesome you picked it up quickly though! It's my first and I still struggle lol
@@katiyannastivers921 I mean, my first language is Arabic, and it is considered one of the most difficult languages in the world. Perhaps for this reason I find English easy compared to it. Also, I read many novels (manga and manhwa to be specific) and I read everything in English.
challenge to spend money actually sounds awesome
B-but.. You forgot the toilet in the downstairs bathroom...
15:20 My close friend whos parents came from a different country thought island was pronounced "is-land" and not "eye-land". When she said that I realised that it's fuckin weird that it isn't. Like why is it that when "is" and "land" are slapped together that they suddenly change pronounciation and "is" turns into "eye" EVEN THOUGH WE ARENT TALKING ABOUT EYEBALLS???
7:35 ironic cause the original name for the sims was dollhouse.
Sims should have more ways to lose money. Gambling maybe? I guess the For Rent expansion may help. Just rent a super expensive place you can’t afford or something?
I am a bit confused. I mean, I'm sure it wouldn't be a big deal, but she said we should deliver some Christmas-themed builds. Does it specifically have to be Christmas, or is a generic, festive holiday-build also okay? Just asking for clarification bc I'd rather ask stupid questions than doing it wrong and only realizing in hindsight.
It can be a generic festive build!
Cool, thanks for clearing that up! ☺😁
No problem! @@LunaTheLoon
Please let this be on the gallery 🙏
It is! My EA ID is FartExploder01
I actually never noticed the sit vs sits thing, omg
Oasis Springs = Palm Springs
I'm literally in Palm Springs right now as I post this comment. Can absolutely confirm.
I have never ever played as a Townie before, but I wonder - if the Landgraabs dont pay their bills, do they shut off their own power? XD
Wow! I can’t believe she said that!
I think the Sims version of Twitch should be Switch and honestly good for them
Wait WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS HE SITS
