Prudence is hilarious and entertaining. I always enjoy talking to her because I get to laugh. Casey is def a favorite. I would have liked to see what the sheriff in Shadow Ranch looks like.
I love how you created these ND phone friends, Caitlyn! My favorites were Poppy Dada and Vivian Whitmore. Another phone friend that I liked was Tink from Haunted Carousel; I thought he was funny. I loved that you used the "Siren" song from Deception Island near the end of your video; that's one of my favorite songs from the ND games. See you tomorrow for the live stream! :)
I DIDNT REALIZE CHRISTMAS CAME IN JUNE. You're spoiling us so much these days! (I haven't had a chance to watch your 2nd episode yet but can't wait.) I LOVE this idea. I love the way you rank them and score them and think about their importance to the game. I usually sort of hate phone conversations in the game, so it's a really cool way to energize that aspect of the games for us all! And the way you rendered all the characters is incredible--they are SO ON POINT. SO cool to see them and to think about how I was imagining them based on just their voice and personality. What a fun video!
Idk what it is but thank you for also headcannoning Savannah as African American! With all the subtle hints of the Thornton’s making their money off of slave labor, I always imagined part of the reason Wade and Savannah cooled their relationship was because of the interracial couple not being accepted on the Thornton side. I always imagined wade being like “forget my family. I don’t care what they say” but Savannah was just so uncomfortable and gahhh. When you ship Wade and Savannah more than most of the Nancy Drew relationships 😂
I envisioned her that way too, and funnily enough I think it initially stemmed from the avatar maker you use for phone contacts, since every other contact you knew what they looked like and they all had lighter skin, I'd use Savanna's as a chance to use the darker skin tones, and I'd also give her silver hair (though I'd imagine she'd actually have dark hair with a bit of grey).
This was a phenomenal idea. I've been binging your Nancy Videos this morning and this one is so creative. I think you nailed them. Especially Tink though, bug eyes and overalls for sure. My favorite phone contact ever is Alex from Sea but we do get a picture of her in Nancy's phone so we already kind of know what she looks like. Loved this video though. You're very insightful with your characters plus you literally combined two of my favorite games.
Wow A++ on your CAS. I think all of them look great but my definite favs are your elders, Eustacia, Vivian, and Casey, the fashion is so spot on. Totally agree with you that Hilda is the best phone contact, I actually was super sad when she calls and tells you that she won't be calling anymore. Also when you started Hilda I went "is she making her native America, please let her be making native American that would be amazing" and you did! I never really picture how phone friends would look but Hilda's sim is gorgeous and I think you capture the facial features so well. The only build that I am pretty opposite on is Savannah, I picture her as a stereotypical blonde southern bell. Can't wait to see what you post next :) P.S. Watching this makes me really want to get eco-lifestyle cause the fashion is gorgeous. P.P.S. This might sound weird but I wish they would bring back the ability to customize your sims underwear. I used to play sims 2 all the time and I guess watching these really makes me realize we don't have that option.
I'm so glad you liked it!! The Eco Lifestyle clothes are fantastic and so are the build/buy items! I'm loving the pack so far. It's spendy, but I've been getting a lot of use out of it! And lol, I totally know what you mean about the underwear!! XD
Hilda is an eco introvert queen! DDI is incredibly nostalgic to me-- DDI was one of the first ND games I played as a kid. I was obsessed with the name ROSEBUD for ages afterward haha
Love this video! I always enjoy your objectivity and providing categories for your rankings instead of just your opinion! I like your opinions too, but the categories for the rankings makes it more credible! Also, I like how you imagined these characters to look based on their phone personalities- you are so creative!! I really liked how you changed the background music to match the phone friend from the game you were discussing - those details are so fun!
I have a day off tomorrow so I'll be able to catch the stream! :D See you soon and I love ur sims stuff (mostly bc it saves me money on buying packs to make ND characters ingame myself but dont tell EA that)
OMG I honestly thought I was the only one. She keeps appearing across the series so I just assumed she was like ~beloved~ and that's why she was there all the time but I canNOT STAND her. So glad I'm not alone, too!!!!!
To the lovely fellow detective that originally mentioned this idea to me that I totally forgot to shout out, please let me know who you are so I can thank you again! I tried to find the original suggestion but couldn't track it down!! 😬
I think that was me that made that suggestion, Caitlyn. :) Check the comments from the "Building Magnus' Cabin from Nancy Drew: Sea of Darkness in the Sims 4" video.
I think you're right!! Thank you SO much for the suggestion and I'm really sorry I forgot to shout you out! This was a really fun video idea and I really appreciate it!
Fun Fact: If I’m not mistaken, Jenna Deblin also has indigenous heritage, as well as Debbie Kircum, Alejandro Del Rio, and the Mapus. I think Mary, Jenna, and Debbie are the only ones with Native American heritage, as Del Rio’s is mesoamerican and the Mapus are native Hawaiian.
You are absolutely correct! I was being quite limited in my mindset when thinking of characters with indigenous heritage! Thank you so much for the comment so that I can definitely remember those characters moving forward!
These are great!! I like how they turned out!! You got Savannah, Hilda, Eustachia and Vivian, I'm happy, lol. 😁😁😁 I actually agree with you on Prudence, she's not the greatest, but she's definitely not the worst. And yes, she definitely gets around. Though, now that I'm thinking about it, maybe you could do our cruise ship mystery group in the Sims!! At least the group (it might end up being three households), I don't know if the mystery will work as well, considering this a scam and not murder, lol. Hmm, maybe another And Then There Were None with your least favorite phone contacts? Or your least favorite characters in general. 😜
Oooh good idea! If we can't get our kooky old lady cruise through HER we can do it ourselves! Also sims should do a cruise ship vacation world, that would be cool.
I feel like I’m definitely in my own category with this one, but I always imagined Eustacia Andropov just like you made her, but African American. I always imagined Savannah as a blonde. However, thinking about her and Wade’s relationship, it makes a lot of sense.
Casey is my absolute mood. So, I am slavic and in russian dub he seemed not to have trouble with hearing, but just being kinda insane, like March Hare from Disney's Alice in Wonderland. Actually, I really recommend checking out russian dub, if possible.
Yeah, I think I'm more in the minority in not really being Prudence's biggest fan! I wanted to focus on non-main character phone friends, but Ned and Carson are so wonderful 😊
I always pictured Marcus as Brown haired with glasses
Oooh! That'd be a cool look too!
Eustacia Andropov is a mood. My favorite is that she is friends with the lady in ghost dogs of moon lake. Two iconic ladies from iconic eras
Their friendship gives me life XD lol
I love Eustacia " I'm 96 over here I don't exactly have time to BURN" best line from her
Prudence is hilarious and entertaining. I always enjoy talking to her because I get to laugh. Casey is def a favorite. I would have liked to see what the sheriff in Shadow Ranch looks like.
Oh yeah! Sheriff Hernandez would be fun to recreate too!
I love how you created these ND phone friends, Caitlyn! My favorites were Poppy Dada and Vivian Whitmore. Another phone friend that I liked was Tink from Haunted Carousel; I thought he was funny.

I'm so glad you liked them! Oh yes, Tink is fantastic too! Man, the early games nailed the phone friends! See you tomorrow!

When you ship Wade and Savannah more than most of the Nancy Drew relationships 😂
Great point! That makes ALOT of sense!!
I feel the same way!! I've always imagined Savannah as black and it was really fun to bring her to life :)
I envisioned her that way too, and funnily enough I think it initially stemmed from the avatar maker you use for phone contacts, since every other contact you knew what they looked like and they all had lighter skin, I'd use Savanna's as a chance to use the darker skin tones, and I'd also give her silver hair (though I'd imagine she'd actually have dark hair with a bit of grey).
I think Eustacia is of Russian descent you can tell by the way she talks in her accent
The designs for Zu & Marcus are so good. Even better than what I had in mind.
I loved all the details that went into your decisions for designs!
Yay! I'm so glad you liked them!!

I really enjoyed watching all the builds! Very cool!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! These characters are such a fun bunch :D
I love all your design choices for Eustacia!! She's a fascinating character for sure
Thank you!! I adore Eustacia!!
I have a day off tomorrow so I'll be able to catch the stream! :D See you soon and I love ur sims stuff (mostly bc it saves me money on buying packs to make ND characters ingame myself but dont tell EA that)
hehe, love it! EA gets enough money anyway! XD
Prudence is funny but she's so obnoxious that I personally dislike talking to her
Same! Glad I'm not alone!
OMG I honestly thought I was the only one. She keeps appearing across the series so I just assumed she was like ~beloved~ and that's why she was there all the time but I canNOT STAND her. So glad I'm not alone, too!!!!!

Love your build!!! Also isn't Jenna from Danger on Deception Island native American? I always thought she was.
Haha I just heard you second guess that. Lol
Haha, yeah, afterwards I was like...wait... you're probably right! So I guess we have 2 Native American characters!
These are great!! I like how they turned out!! You got Savannah, Hilda, Eustachia and Vivian, I'm happy, lol. 😁😁😁
I actually agree with you on Prudence, she's not the greatest, but she's definitely not the worst. And yes, she definitely gets around.

@@Deamonslayer576 ugh man, yes!! There's a lot the Sims team needs to give us to make Sims 4 complete.
Those are such great ideas!! And I'm so glad I'm not alone on Prudence XD
@@WizardKittenYT oh you are definitely not. 😆😆
I feel like I’m definitely in my own category with this one, but I always imagined Eustacia Andropov just like you made her, but African American. I always imagined Savannah as a blonde. However, thinking about her and Wade’s relationship, it makes a lot of sense.
Ooh, love your ideas for Eustacia!!
another great video!
I pictured Savannah as being a white brunette, but to each their own!
Yeah, that seems to be how lots of people picture her! Not sure why that's always been my image of her, but there ya have it! Lol
I definitely pictured Savannah differently
I pictured Savannah as a blonde southern bell and much older
@@dreamielynn1264 yeah, I do too.
@@RoseBaggins How did you picture her?
@@dreamielynn1264 with more sandy blonde hair, green eyes, glasses for reading, and an oval-shaped face. Maybe in her thirties to forties.
@@RoseBaggins exactly
I need to see Prudence and Logan (Savanna’s assistant)!
Ooh, they would both be a lot of fun too! I feel like Prudence gives me Hotchkiss meets Vivian vibes!
Casey is my absolute mood.
So, I am slavic and in russian dub he seemed not to have trouble with hearing, but just being kinda insane, like March Hare from Disney's Alice in Wonderland.
Actually, I really recommend checking out russian dub, if possible.
That sounds incredibly interesting!! That would be so fun to check out! And yes, Casey really is such a mood 😂
I always thought Eustacia would look like Renata from The Captive Curse, myself
Sure! I could see that!
So happy.
I'm so glad!!
Hilda Swenson is the best!!!
Yess!
i kind of like prudence but she definitely doesnt help a lot. i just think she’s hilarious
also Ned and Carson are technically phone friends but you already made them so
Yeah, I think I'm more in the minority in not really being Prudence's biggest fan! I wanted to focus on non-main character phone friends, but Ned and Carson are so wonderful 😊
yea i really only like prudence because of her voice and because of one funny line in phantom of Venice, but other than that she’s just meh for me
Btw no one in the south talks like Savannah. It’s more of an antebellum southern accent.
Yeah, I would imagine that's VERY rare nowadays XD
