Thank you for actually PLAYING James, I learned so much more this way. I wasn't gonna preorder and wait for release day, but I wanna use your code. This is the information I needed about the pack. That livestream was hecka boring.
I read that if you put the water heater and electrical outlet in the shared space together they will power all the rooms rather than putting one in each room to be powered individually. This might save you time not having to repair them so often if that tip was actually true. Also lilsimsie also said her game was bugged and she wouldn’t get paid the rent either so hopefully that gets fixed before launch because that’s a huge bug..
@@user-uj2ft2zn6o While yeah, that's true, some of it felt like bs, why can a tenant agree on a rule, break it, refuse to pay the fine and then launch a revolt with everyone joining their side like they're in the right? It's one thing to let them have some authority, it's another to have them completely controlling the system and having no power to stop them from exploiting that.
I am super surprised that no one has mentioned the relationships with tenants yet besides James. Now my biggest concern or a idea that would be helpful is having a filter that says "tenant/property" something along the lines to seperate the tenants/families in the propertis from just friends/families if that makes sense? It would crowd my sims relationship panel lol.
You'd think they'd pay the rent when they check out. I'll most likely just make 7 days the shortest stay if I do a hotel and do increments of 7 for either long hotel stays or for apartment rentals.
If you hire a maid, will they clean ALL the rooms? Can't you lock the customers out of your room so they don't annoy you. I never considered making a hotel. Thought it was just going to be apartments. I love the idea of a hotel!
This is what I’m going to use this pack for, and since sims can own several lots now I can have my sims stay at the hotels, not just own them. Can’t wait!!
This was so much fun! I was a bit disappointed by how lackluster the pack felt after the official livestream, but you've certainly been able to highlight some of its best features and it does seem like a lot of fun to play. Btw loving the aesthetic of the hotel (and the pack in general).
breaking into our dear leader's room would honestly be the worst decision you could ever make. first off, we all know the mole people are watching the entire time. secondly, we would somehow be forced to paint for the rest of our lives 😂 for real though, amazing first look Semaj. I'm so excited to watch everything you do with this new found power 😆
For something like that, wouldn’t it make more sense for there to be a notification that there aren’t enough beds in the unit, or a complaint from the sims in the unit? Rather than them breaking into another occupied unit to use their utilities lol
@@VultureSkins I don't remember how this works, can you mark your apartment as a unit and live in it, or is it just shared space but the door to this part was locked? Because we all know how reliable door locks are in the game.
As an irish person, hearing your refer to Jim Pickens has made me immensely happy. CALLMEKEVIN COLLAB PLEASE! Multiplayer mod, Kevin/Jim Pickens as your tennant woud make my little heart the happiest it can be 😭
Omg the 37th Earl of Biscuit! That's the guy off Sims Castaway whose dairy you find like 100 years after he was shipwrecked on the island. That's so funny they included him here.
It's morelike communal living. Lots of dense cities have big buildings the you rent the room and share the kitchen, living room and sometimes there is a big communal bathroom. Looking forward to playing with all the expansions.
Eh it can be used for both which is why they went with calling them residential rentals instead of apartments or just communal living. Because it can be either/or with how the system is built.
The system is designed to be flexible, so you can build self contained apartments or comunal living like you described. James is pushing it a bit by using it to run a hotel, but he knows that's not what it's really designed for.
@@gabrielandy9272 I do know that hotels have cleaners, and I'm sure James does too. The for rent system isn't designed for running hotels and doesn't have a system for hiring staff. This is just a fun video idea to show the new game pack, it doesn't need to be perfectly realistic.
@@gabrielandy9272the fact that you can rent the rooms daily is obviously supposed to account for the weird time system in the sims, not to actually let you run a hotel. Hotel guests would have a very hard time suing a hotel for kicking them out, you don't have hotel guest rights like you do as a tennant. After seeing this though, the Sims team are probably working on a hotel pack to charge you another $60 for some text and menus
I am STUPID excited for this Lets Play with Laird to begin! Ive been sort of quietly following and watching since the OG Lady was still the main character being played 😂 Its been so much fun watching the Bigwallet family grow. And watching the growth of this channel!
This as complete mess, as expected. Rent doesn't work, you lose money, tenants revolt no matter what. I hope they adjust these settings before release or soon after, cause at the moment this pack is more of a hassle than anything else...
i actually seem to like the pack. thank you for playing it through, it was very informative about the pack and very entertaining at the same time! i just wish it didn't have loading screens every time you visit your tenants' apartments...
I wonder if we as the landlord can hire a maid, and they can access each 'lot'? If not then I need to get a maid lot trait or something. I want to be able to offer my luxury high maintence sims free cleaning, like service apartments in city living.
You can send handy people to the lots to deal with any issues that appear, you don’t have to attend yourself. I don’t think there’s a specific maid one though
That Reginald secret is a reference to Sims 2 Castaway, as he’s a character you find the journals of, he goes mad slowly after everyone else in his crew dies.
This looks a lot more fun to play than what was shown on the playthrough from the Sims team, which is great. Seems like you’re kept busy a lot. I’m wondering if there’s an easier way to remember what unit is what…like an identification for the door? Also seems like a great challenge for Semaj to have to manage 99 rentals, lol…just regular apartments not a hotel. Thanks, James! (Also looking forward to someone making a ‘hotel’ mod that makes it work easier to have people stay for different amounts of time and be checking in/leaving at the end of their stay…like 1 to 14 days or something…oh, Carl? Helloooo? Or any great modder?) Also, really hope it works and doesn’t slow down too much when it’s installed with every pack!
Yay! This pack seems like it realllly changes a lot of how someone would play. Crazy. Did they add a dehumidifier item to help with mold? Are there inspectors? I can't wait to see all the gameplay, this was so fun
The Pink Flamingo looks so beautiful! I love the lookout spot That Ending tho!! The true ending is at 42:36, everything after is an illusion conjured up to trick the mind
You are the only sims 4 player I love watching, I could never find myself to be able to sit through a video with other UA-camrs!! Thank you for your great videos✨✨
As someone who once worked in the leasing office for a guy who rents out properties, that frustration you were feeling from having no money, tenants breaking everything, and then not paying you is 100% realistic. Let me tell you, I have HORROR stories. They had a tenant once who was breeding black widow spiders in the unit, among other infractions of the unhygienic variety. They basically had to take that unit down to the studs and get rid of the spiders themselves because local exterminators wouldn’t do it because of liability if an employee got bit. And of course the guy didn’t pay them a cent. Property management is a precarious balancing act between the good tenants who pay you and the spiderguys who cost you tens of thousands in damages. 😬
@@hfjirehI’ve been seeing this stance constantly on this pack so I guess I’m just curious, what’s the alternative to you? I’m not asking this maliciously I’m just genuinely wondering what the folks who’ve been vocal about being anti-landlord want instead? I never really thought about it till I saw the discourse surrounding this pack.
@@Amber-hf8uoi think people just want affordable housing, where the average person can afford to own property instead of paying unsustainable amounts to a landlord who doesnt even put in any effort into the state of the building. The problem usually isnt with landlords who have a couple places for rent, but rather with these massive landlords who are purposefully leaving apartments emty to drive up demand and therefore price, while neglecting the tennants, as well as safety and welfare rules and regulations
@@Amber-hf8uo i mean, housing should just be free honestly. housing shouldn’t be a source of profit at all. because every person should be able to own their own home, that’s just basic human right.
@@llamalady Oh okay I understand, just affordable housing. That I can agree with. I’ve seen some stances like housing should be free and while I wish that were the case, I just feel like it’s an impossible ask in this kind of capitalist society. I do think the standards for landlords should be higher, including fixing units like you mentioned. I just don’t know that I believe all landlords are inherently bad. That seems like such a huge assumption.
I have a feeling the reason people were able to go into your room was because it works like any other lot - aka you spoke to the sim so it decided that was good enough to be invited inside lmao
Now I want to see this from the other side where CallMeKevin plays as Jim Pickens (or his alias Steven Pawn) to turn all of James’s tenants against him and cause chaos.
I am so excited! I don't want to get my hopes up too much, but this pack has the potential to be my favorite since dream home decorator! Beautiful build, James.
8:24 That's exactly what I thought as well you should definitely spy on him he probably does too. If Kevin doesn't change Jim Pickens`s name to the cover name Steven Pawn I'm going to be slightly upset. 18:23 James just slowly becoming friends with Jim honestly you should add him for the for rent lets play
I think having the food display case, from Get to Work, I think, would he helpful for making food for your guests. OMG... the end, You had me terrified, LMAO🤣🤣
Currently running my Super Sim. Found out that if your skills are high enough or you completed enough university courses, your next diploma starts with 4 credits instead of the usual zero. She's now completing her seventh diploma, all prestige diplomas. One more from Britchester before switching university. Maxed out ALL visible skills. Left with the Baby foot, skating, ping-pong, juice pong and veterinarian skills to max out. Also have all the reward traits, with some 50000 satisfaction points available. Also, 45 perk points for the magic perks after getting them all. Just lock that door for everyone BUT the owner. At times, I even get infants waiting for my Sims on the curb when returning home from another lot...
I love that you know about Jim Pickens lol. Great video. It was all downhill when Jim moved in. I have hopes for this pack, it feels like older sims gameplay that had that fun random chaotic stuff happen. Or it may just be you that makes it interesting 😆
omg... I saw lilsimsie live twitch stream and we decided that Steven Pawn is a dig at Steven King and having found out that he is a descendant of some royal makes it even more fun lol thanks for snooping on him lmao
So far I absolutely cannot imagine trying to have a family while playing as a landlord lol, imagine trying to micromanage a toddler and an infant while having to run between tenants and managing revolts all day
it doesnt look difficult.
@@themysticwarriorgal9465 It totally does, he spent pretty much all sim day running from flat to flat between load screens or cleaning up mold. It might be doable with a couple apartments, but forget a big family + big property

@@selkiefluff mold is an optional challenge, he also made it hotel style to drive people to the common areas. I am sure if they have their own full homes and you go light on lot challenges it will change a lot of gameplay.
There’s a lot of editing in the video
Jim Pickens in James video was not the crossover I was expecting in the first 4 rent video I watched!
Jim Pickens as a tenant to ANYTHING would be horrifying 😂😂
Of course the tenant that caused a revolt was a sim that was given Jim Pickens spirit. 😂
I can't wait to see how Kevin breaks this pack with the real Jim Pickens 😂
I was so excited to hear this crossover though.
@@brittanycuster3985 hey I'm sure if you over look the murder and people getting locked in the basement, he'd be a great tenant, just don't question him..
the fact that Jim Pickens IS canonically part of a royal family is absolutely cracking me up this all just fits so well
EA secretly loves Kevin 😂
omg, he IS!
His great-great-great-(etc.)-ancestor WAS the king of Fecktopia, after all.
I love how most simmers know who Jim Pickens is and are terrified
He's like an urban legend in the community
I wasn't paying attention then looked up and saw his face which made me react strongly not even knowing for sure it's him
CallMeKevin and James Turner is the crossover we all needed. ❤
they played dr Gluon Candyland in Sims some time ago. At least I think that James played it too
Agreed!
@VerseskVeil A lot of Simmers have had multiple crossovers with Dr. Gluon, especially James lol. I think this person was just saying this is the one that everyone needed most?
Agreed
I've never heard of call me Kevin but I've heard of call me Kris.... I'm not sure if I like the name similarities...
"You should just listen to me, a childless guy with a mouldy hotel" made me laugh out loud for some reason

I could see the sweat on James' brow when Jim Pickens showed up 😂
No wonder he wanted Laird to keep everything she could from the ranch.. he knew it was going to be a rough statt
You'd think they'd pay the rent when they check out. I'll most likely just make 7 days the shortest stay if I do a hotel and do increments of 7 for either long hotel stays or for apartment rentals.

OMG when jim pickens made a surprise appearance i SCREAMED. we need this collab with you and kevin!!!!!!!!!
I am so excited! I don't want to get my hopes up too much, but this pack has the potential to be my favorite since dream home decorator! Beautiful build, James.
This is the FUNNIEST sim video I've ever watched! Immediately subscribed. You're great!
8:24 That's exactly what I thought as well you should definitely spy on him he probably does too. If Kevin doesn't change Jim Pickens`s name to the cover name Steven Pawn I'm going to be slightly upset. 18:23 James just slowly becoming friends with Jim honestly you should add him for the for rent lets play
Hearing James say "Jim Pickens" completely derailed me. 10/10 plot twist. Gets me every time.
This was hilarious! I laughed out loud twice and smirked throughout! James, you're a true gem!
Same! 😂😂
“Exercise the ghost” We can go to the gym.. oh. Exorcise the ghost” 😂 I lost it
I think having the food display case, from Get to Work, I think, would he helpful for making food for your guests. OMG... the end, You had me terrified, LMAO🤣🤣
sims 4: "Gaming is cringe"
me: "Ooh self burn... those are rare"
That is definitely Jim Pikens! 😂😂
Currently running my Super Sim. Found out that if your skills are high enough or you completed enough university courses, your next diploma starts with 4 credits instead of the usual zero. She's now completing her seventh diploma, all prestige diplomas. One more from Britchester before switching university.
Maxed out ALL visible skills. Left with the Baby foot, skating, ping-pong, juice pong and veterinarian skills to max out. Also have all the reward traits, with some 50000 satisfaction points available. Also, 45 perk points for the magic perks after getting them all.
Just lock that door for everyone BUT the owner.
At times, I even get infants waiting for my Sims on the curb when returning home from another lot...
James casually dropping he's a Call Me Kevin fan👀
27:15 "Two bros, chilling in a hot tub, 5 feet apart cause they're not gay"
I love that you know about Jim Pickens lol. Great video. It was all downhill when Jim moved in. I have hopes for this pack, it feels like older sims gameplay that had that fun random chaotic stuff happen. Or it may just be you that makes it interesting 😆
I did not expect a Jim Pickens shoutout, but it made me realize I would love a collab
Is Wayne the Boulder supposed to have a megaphone during the revolt? lol His voice was changed but he wasnt holding anything.
This season of White Lotus: Pink Flamingo is wild.
This has implemented the chaos that was missing from the sims. I was laughing so hard the whole video. 😂
omg... I saw lilsimsie live twitch stream and we decided that Steven Pawn is a dig at Steven King and having found out that he is a descendant of some royal makes it even more fun lol thanks for snooping on him lmao
If no name has been chosen for the rags to riches lp, I think it should be Rags to Rentals ✅
I love how Kevin is a reputable part of the Sims community
