If kits were all collabs with simmers and CC creators, i would buy them all

“They did not redeem the sperm eyeliner” was not a sentence I expected to ever hear in my life 😂

heres the thing: i really like this kit. it has beautiful items and my culture is being represented. but i wont buy it, cause its ridiculously expensive. its five dollars, but in reais(brazil's currency) its 30 bucks. ea's games are expensive everywhere but here in brazil its a litte bit worse; for example, expansion packs are more expensive than the ACTUAL GAME. base game= R$160 expansion packs: R$200. and the minimum wage in brazil is R$1.200 per month. which is definitely not much bc 2 pounds of meat is 45 reais. 1 single liter of gasoline its 7. rent is at least 500, a really bad place but i know this isnt a problem with the kit itself, it is a problem with EA in general

The fact I could see literally all of these clothes being worn by Brazilian people during Carnival really makes my day

It’s not just a kit, ITS A BRAZILIAN KIT AND IT IS AMAZING AND I HAVE BEEN WAITING TO SEE ME AND MY CULTURE AND MY COUNTRY IN THE GAME FOR SO FREAKING LONG

“I think I might like kits” is probably one of the last sentences I ever expected to hear from Kayla

I wish it had swimsuits and headpieces, if it’s a Brazilian Carnaval inspired kit, it should have things we actually use as Brazilian during carnaval, the lack swimsuits are a huge miss 😣

Why not make a whole kit based on a collab with cc creators.

10:41 this skirt is inspired by frevo skirts, a traditional dance performed during carnaval that involves a lot of leg work.

As a brazilian, I can say that they were really accurate creating those looks inspired in Carnaval… Carnaval in brazil is very bright, party and fabulous, and that kit is all about it! Happy with Sims 4 team, who is looking now to expand Sims 4 with new cultures, and not just the standard american one. I understand that for some people might makes no sense, but for brazilians, which are a HUGE part of Sims 4 community, this kit is very important.

the number of Simmers in Brazil is HUGE, it took so long for them to make some content based in our culture... and it's a Kit... well... at least it's a somehow good one and we'll also have some free content added to the game so...

“You’re not going to buy my opinion with a $5 kit”, one of the MANY reasons why I love you Kayla.

My opinion on kits will be finalized when the next pack comes out. If they've slowed down on game pack/expansion packs because they are taking more time to make sure the quality is up where it needs to be, I'm cool with it. But if we get this next game pack and it has a ton of glitches and problems, then I'm going to be pretty upset by these kits.

12:27 i don't know if it's intentional but this swach has the brazilian flag colors and I think that's such a fun detail since the pack is inspired by brazilian carnaval

I'm honestly terrified about how my randomised townies will look like after I get this kit

If Kayla who is American says that "packs are expansive" imagine in other countries where 1 dollar is worth 5 times more. EA is being unreasonable. 5 dollars in my country is like 26 bucks. They are begging us to do pirated

Honestly the clothes are a lot more wearable than I expected, I just assumed they’d all be quite extravagant (which isn’t bad) but some of the swatches really make some of the clothes everyday wear too. Some will also look really good in Sulani or if your sims go clubbing etc. I think I’ll grab this kit!

I think if EA has the gall to charge $5 for a fashion kit, every single detail on the clothes should be perfect. Each item should work on every frame (not just masc/femme, but fat and skinny, large and small chest) and the textures should be perfect. 3D features on design should actually be 3D in the game instead of just flat. I don't inherently have a problem with them making kits, but if you're going to charge that much for so little content, it should be of a certain quality.

watching kayla get excited over a BRAZILIAN themed kit is exactly what i needed to make my day better. as we say here in brazil: obrigada pelos refrescos (thank you for the refreshes) 🙌🏻🙌🏻🥰

I'm still hoping the Nostalgia Pack idea will take flight and even if it's a long shot I'd give anything to have something like that. (Again just a pack with items from old Sims games with the graphics of Sims 4) 🥰

The feminine tops have those weird bumps in the back when put on masculine framed Sims because feminine framed Sims by default have a kind of exaggerated dip in the back and the top is meant to be a loose top that doesn't follow the contour of the dip. And clothes are meshed to fit to the body by relative position, so on feminine framed Sims that part of the mesh being further out from that part of the back works and ends up making the top flatter on the back, but on masculine framed Sims who generally have a flatter back, that part of the top being further out just makes a bump. No idea if I'm explaining this well

I'm actually, as a Brazilian, really happy with this kit. I love the representation, the collab with Pablo Vittar and, mostly, the fact that I can imagine someone wearing those clothes on Carnival. Carnival it's such a nice vibes holiday where everyone is happy, just enjoying the 'frevo' (The type of song that plays on carnival) and everything and I think I'm able to feel that energy by this kit. :)

"There's just something about this that's so much but in the best way" as a brazilian i know for fact that this lady would go for a RIDE in a street carnival

omg i can’t believe pablo vittar did a collab with the sims, never been more proud of being brazilian, and the clothes are not that extra, it’s just super brazilian

Okay but imagine if it was a stuff pack with some carvinal gameplay.

I actually really like the kit. I think the main thing I wish was that the pride crop top also came in black and white. It's such a cute shape, I think it would have been a good staple piece if it also came in a couple neutrals too.

I love watching Kayak reviewing the length of the shorts because you KNOW she would be. So. Shocked. if she were to celebrate Carnaval in Brazil lol "Oh they are too low/too short" girlie, they're really not, you haven't seen what I've seen lol

So nice seeing Brazil represented in this kit! This clothes are really nice, and I (as a brazilian woman) can totally see people wearing this here in our Carnaval! I love it! ❤

I really wanted this to be a stuff pack. I love the fact that the sims is representing Brazilian culture but there is so much more they could’ve added, especially with carnaval!

simsie, would you ever put a drag queen sim into one of your let's plays? I love how much of real life you include in your games, and with this pack I would really love to see a 'model/singer/comedian' drag queen sim to have fun with

Am I the only one looking at her sweater and thinking that it looks like a CAS item from Cottage Living? I love it!!!

I can say, as a Brazilian, the shorts are so accurate

I'm just really glad brazilians feel represented ❤️

I'm not totally opposed to kits. However, if they were marked $1.99, they may sell better. Perhaps if it had an additional interactive build item or yearly event. Like masks, block parties or a Parade. Ooo a parade through Selvadorada. Like they did with the sessions.

I'm brazilian and I live right by the lighthouse in the picture, I love Pablo Vittar and I am SO excited for this kit. You can research Farol da Barra in Salvador-Bahia, Brazil in Carnaval and you might get a feeling of what the moment feels like. I was born during Carnaval and I'm sure this will be a very special kit for me 💕

I'm queer and I love dressing up in bright & glittery styles, so this kit hits my exact niche. Especially compared to the other clothes kits, which tend to be on the more muted/subtle end of style. I like fashion, but for me the others were definitely not worth the price. I may have to get this one, even if 5 bucks is somewhat unreasonable, just because I can see myself using all of these items regularly.

Eu fico muito feliz com a inclusão do Brasil no jogo mas imaginem a loucura que seria um pacote de expansão do Brasil? Imaginem uma cidade nova com uma praia linda, objetos tipo um filtro de barro e até um cachorro caramelo andando no rua? Que sonho ❤

It's nice to finally have something inspired by Brazil (even if it's Carnaval as always). I'm not really a fan of Pabblo's songs but gosh I love her style

Another KZfaqr made a comment about this kit saying that we don’t have carnivals in the sims or anything like it and I agree, it’s fun and all to have these extra clothes and stuff but when/where would you wear some of this stuff.

when kayla was looking at one of the tops, and then she picked a green and blue swatch and said ''do you know what this reminds me of?'' i was like. brazillian flag.( also thought that about the others green/blue/yellow outfits) i sinceraly have no idea what mac shirt shes talking about lmao

I work as a 3D artist for games and yeah this kinda kit doesn’t take long to make. 3D assets are pretty easy compared to programming. That’s what takes the most time. The next pack probably has all of its assets made and it’s just waiting for the coding to be polished up

The rainbow swatch on the skirt that reminds you of the toddler skirt reminded me of the outfit Elina gets at the end of Barbie Fairytopia, Magic of the Rainbow

I've never been big for CAS and didn't think I'd like this kit. BUT I love EVERYTHING in this new kit! 💖

Challenge idea! Each room is a different *CAS kit* so like the vibes of Carnaval or Throwback Fit made as a room!

I still wish for another stuff pack and maybe a refresh…

This is the only kit I’ve considered actually buying

Kinda disappointed that they made a collaboration with a drag queen and did not make all outfits fit both frames well. I mean, I get that it is extra work but if I buy this, it would probably be for the pride vibes and in that context I want to be able to let my sims play with gender expression without the litteral binary system getting in the way.

7:19 the pink eyeliner blends in seamlessly with the pink eyeshadow so it looks like she has gems on her eyes. I’m here for it

i love how inclusive kayla honestly, i love how she refers to the sims as feminine framed or masculine framed like i love you

I hope that one day they make an expansion pack about Brasil, I would love to see my country being covered more

I feel like some of this stuff would also work well with mermaid sims! And I really like what I'm seeing of this kit. :D

I just bought this and you have made it so much easier to "see" what they look like on my Sims! Your genuine excitement is contagious and I'm ready to go play!! TY! Great video!

I wish they were cheaper, or that they would add more of these beautiful cultural items into the base game for free

I feel exactly the same about kits. That they are made out of things that are intentionally very specific so that everyone finds one or two they love and just ignore the rest. I don't much care for most of them, so I just didn't buy them, but the Oasis one is the one for me. The lamps, the palms, the tile... I adore it.

It's soooo good to see more about my country in games! This kit shows perfectly how I see people in streets during Brazil's Carnaval! ✨

The fact that the gem shirt doesn’t look very maxis match (more alpha bc texture) makes me happy Their clothing has improved so much it’s insane. It’s beautiful and I’m happy most outfits don’t just look like it’s painted on

I want to buy this pack to support Pablo Vittar, carnaval and my country but in this economy. A kit in Brazil is so expensive to us if Americans think 5 dollars expensive imagine 30 reais for 26 itens and no gameplay or other features, players deserved more.

I actually love this. Most of the Latino representation in American media covers only the northernmost part of Latin America so this is refreshing

Kayla rocking the cottage living fit!!! ❤

Talking about cottage living, I just got it yesterday and I'm so HAPPY with it. I love the rabbits and lama's. There's so much to explore

Honestly this is the first kit I’m interested in buying.

Honestly, all the Kits (barring maybe ...Bust the Dust) are all well-made in their own way, and they definitely do what they're supposed to: fit the niches of various Simmers. Like, I seriously don't think that any Kit has missed the mark for me. Yes, I still think they should not exist, but given Kayla's presumed rationale from this video, now, I think I don't mind them as much, and if the Kits are actually this high-quality (I use Incheon Arrivals, Fashion Street, Throwback Fit, and Industrial Loft RELIGIOUSLY), then... I can't help but get my hopes up for the quality of future EPs, GPs, and SPs. If Kits are succeeding at something, it's getting my hopes up lol

14:53 I think the bump is because of a bow in the back since that seems to be a trend in a lot of the outfits

kayla i love how considerate you are of the both sims team and the community you are just so refreshing

I hope that when they release the pronoun update, they also fix the issue with how clothing fits on different frames. I just feel like there's no reason why a masculine framed sim can't wear a dress without it possibly having some weird pointy bits and the same vice versa. Cause realistically all clothing fits the same on feminine frames and masculine frames

I really love this kit. Actually, I've enjoyed the kits so far and have bought most of them. I don't know how they price it in other countries, but kits here are somehow 'cheap' (179 ph, which would be aroud 3.50 dollars), considering how its sold at 5 dollars in other places. That's why I find the pricing in other countries quite wierd, and why I understand that others find ot expensive since we're priced differently.

I really like this kit. I like two things about it extra. 1) Most, if not all, of these looks are cute on fat Sims. We have had so many CAS packs that make fat Sims look like garbage, and I've wanted more cute clothes for fat Sims basically since I started playing. 2) Most, if not all, of these looks translate really well to both masc and fem frames. I know that was part of the point of this pack, and I really appreciate that they made some fun, colorful dresses that look nice on a masculine frame. I put one of my girls in the overall shorts, and it's SO cute on her. Sometimes the masc clothes look very awkward on a fem frame, especially if she's small, but these are just perfection. That sleevless top is another excellent unisex piece that looks great on nearly everyone. I think this kit is a lot more versatile than the other kits we've seen. I want more like this.

I think that the “painted on” texture of the bottoms is related to the fact that if you pair it with something not as cropped up top, the two pieces could clash and not layer properly (as it happens with necklaces on many sweaters).

*i love how she does her commentary with her videos bc she’s so straight to the point*

I love how colorful this kit is! 😊 but, I wouldn’t buy any of the kits. I think it’s a lil bit too pricey for what we actually get…

i am so excited! im getting this one. this is like EXACTLY what ive been wanting from the sims cas!!! the colors make my heart so happy!!!

This kit is better than what I expected, and I really like it! The rainbow colors, the texture, especially sparkling jewels, they are stunning! The designs are super sexy but not too revealing. I find no bugs or problems at all. Truly worth it! 😃

I think kits do slow down other packs' development, because instead of creating those, they could be updating other outdated packs like they did with Spa Day. Outdoor Retreat especially could use a makeover and some additional content, and same thing for Luxury Party. It annoys me as they bring the same (or even more) stuff into the game that some previous GAME packs, which people bought, at least, $20, and I consider it stealth when we paid that much money on packs with so few items in them. They need to improve already released content.

as a brazilian it's so fun to watch simsie talk about pablo vittar

man i love the stuff in this kit. it's so accurate when it comes to carnival clothes. like i'm pretty sure i've seen people wearing clothes exactly like those before

honestly this whole kit is VERY realistic lol, i'm so glad they teamed up with an actual Brazilian person for this. things like outfits, nails, jewelry and makeup are SO important for us during carnaval and a lot us plan our outfits MONTHS before the actual carnaval date (changes every year). also i'd wear every single thing in this kit lol

This is the first fashion kit that I'm considering buying. I think these items are really fun.

I vowed to never buy any full price kits out of principle but they’ve won me over with this one. Need it 😍

I absolutely love the way the clothings look. I actually like CAS kits and Gameplay kits. I love having so many choices of clothes so none of my sims actually look the same.

the coolest part of the video is the randomness of the game to look like an ordinary Brazilian person, in which we are seeing carnival clothes! This represents our Brazil

That pride top should be base game. People shouldn’t have to pay for lgbt+ content

I’m super glad Brazilians feel represented but holy shit it is so overpriced for what you get 😐

I am so excited for the bonnet and doorag. I always use the city living hair wrap thing as a placeholder for a bonnet or doorag. I have been wanting one for a long ass time

My top three kits are Blooming Rooms, Country Kitchen, and Incheon. I absolutely ADORE the fashion in the Incheon kit. The Carnaval kit is cute and the clothing is very well done. The turtleneck top is my favorite, but I also loved the long dress with the cut-outs. I will definitely be using a lot of the items for party wear, swimwear, and hot weather wear.

These look fun when you're in a mood to use them and would look awesome irl, but we don't have many warm/tropical worlds in the Sims 4. I can't imagine a sim walking through Brindleton Bay or Midnight Hollow in neon fishnets 😭 Also a lot of the tops and the suspenders outfit look pretty bad on large chested sims imho

Only kit I’ve downloaded is the plant one and it’s most likely the only kit I will ever download

To add to what you were saying about the delay in expansions, it can also be due to the chip shortage. It's so hard for anyone to get graphics cards and a lot of other electronic items needed to computers, phones, even game consoles. Maybe with their transition to work from home they're struggling to get the physical equipment to have more on hand workers.

i really like the items in this kit - that pride shirt i would wear irl. honestly i like most of the clothes in the cas kits. i like most of the furniture in b&b kits. the problem is i would never use them. i don't build industrial apartments every day. i don't make that fashionable sims every day. i build suburban houses and ikea-filled apartments and i make sims in jeans and sweaters because that is what i see every day. and if i was going to spent $5 on some clothes or furniture i would only be willing to buy things i will use all the time to justify the money. that's why the only kit i really consider buying when i have the chance is the plant one. i feel like this one is the only one with items i would actually use on a daily basis. the clothes in the kits are mostly beautiful and really well made. but if i'm going to use it on two sims and never touch it again, maybe apart from one or two items - it's never going to be worth for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

Truthfully, getting tired with the kits but understand the slowdown, hopefully later this year we’ll get more content (crossing my fingers here but I doubt it)

I feel so bad that i actually like kits xc Not all of em but i can totally see the use for them. Like people who don't have money for packs can buy kits to get some more plants or prettier clothes. I'm always wondering if i'm the only one who feels this way bc everyone seems to hate them

I've liked several kits but don't want to spend $5 on one. I fully expected to not like this one, but after this, I really wanna buy it. THEY'RE SO CUTE

I’m glad everyone is loving the new kit. Now that I’ve seen it, I don’t think I like it. There were really only a couple items I thought were ok. But when I create sims I typically do more serious, professionally driven sims.

Hey, I just wanted to say thank you for helping me without even knowing it. My girlfriend recently broke up with me and she was my world, watching your videos really put a smile on my face every night. I’d watch every video without a fail and without a doubt it’ll make me happy, keep doing what your doing because you help so many people in so many different ways

I LOVE the pride shirt! I'm gonna put that one on a lot of sims

Eu realmente achei legal e interessante terem feito uma collab com a Pabllo pra trazer um kit de Carnaval e fiquei mais feliz ainda por não ser simplesmente algo estereotipado com fantasias carnavalescas e só, e sim um kit com roupas muito bem utilizáveis no jogo e etc. A única coisa é que metade do Brasil não vai conseguir comprar por ser caríssimo, sem condições pagar 30 reais pra 20 pecinhas de roupas kkkkkkkkkkk Pabllo se tu ama seus fãs dá uma cópia do kit pra cada um

The fact that this kit made the sperm eyeliner usable is award-worthy

The townies are gonna LOVE this kit 😅

I didn’t think I was gonna buy this kit. But here I am, taking out my wallet again.

Love this. I’m about to play mines right now because I made a bgc so I needed these items! Lol love the makeup so much. I want them to put lashes because I’m tired of the lashes that’s in the game. I’m a console player so I don’t get to have cc. But anyways. I love the clothing so much. I love how you can mix and match. Thank you for review! You’re awesome!

i’m obsessed with it!! It’s so pretty!! it’s also my birthday so that’s super fun lol
