You have absolutely no idea how much I needed your video right now. My dad passed away a few days ago and I just needed the distraction and your wonderfully light manner. Thanks dear ❤

im actually loving this style of video i wish this format was more common among (us) the sims community

I want to see Stanley making money from renting out very small 3x4 appartments!

Thank you for making sims that reflect the culture represented within the pack. It really means a lot as a SEA sims player. Multi-generation homes are so normal within my culture and I can’t wait to play with this pack- once it goes on sale ofc…

I'm autistic. Watching Lilsimsie on twitch can be extremely overwealming due to the constant pop ups and the chat (no offense to whoever is there). Having a two hours long video of my favourite KZfaqr playing my favourite game with my favourite pack is truely a christmas gift for me. Thank you, Kayla.

imagine a video of Stanley getting rich from blackmailing other sims...iconic

1 hour and 45 min video from Kayla?? Hold on..Let me get my snacks and Pepsi Max! :D

OH MY GOD 1h 45m FOR RENT PLAYTHROUGH I AM SO UNBELIEVEABLY EXCITED TO WATCH THIS KAYLA

Summary of what I learned during the build section: DO NOT put everything into the separate units until the very end. It will save you a lot of problems lol

Pro tip for when you’re building with the For Rent pack: Decorate everything first and then mark them as separate units last, so you won’t have to sit through the loading screens.

They really need to add some more hijab options and colours and hijabi-friendly clothes! I think having a top that’s like the leggings and can go under any other outfit would be a good step to allow people to convert all sorts of outfits to their preferred level of modesty. Edit: Hijabs should also definitely stay for work outfits! You shouldn’t need to use cheats to give hijabi sims appropriate work wear for them!

I know they made marbles exclusive for kids, but I think it could be cool if they opened it to elders as well and the kids could only play if they learned it from an elder. At the very least I’d like to see a grandparent and their grandchild playing together.

I love how Kayla includes so many cultures, genders and sexualities into her gameplay, it js makes everyone feel seen and respected

I feel like the aspirations being a lifetime goal is maybe just what we're used to because of sims 3. The original aspirations are long, but also have more meaningful traits, the shorter ones can pair nicely with those longer ones if you alternate

Kayla made the houses in the colors of the Powerpuff girls 😂

No mom. I can't go to family dinner, Kayla released an hour and 45 minute video.

I know this kind of video isnt everyones favorite, but i LOVE long videos! Thanks for uploading this Kayak!

2 HOURS?! Thank you Kayla 🥰

Min’s parents are thankfully not dead. They both tasted the cowplant’s cake, had a weird reaction, and felt compelled to be a cowplant. They now live in an unknown location of a wild cowplant colony, being part of the secret cowplant lifestyle.

i love that min is mean, more nonbinary characters should be evil in my opinion

Hi Kayla im not sure if you'll ever see this comment, but your videos and markipliers have kept me sane the past couple days. On Wednesday night I got admitted to the hospital for a uti infection which I later discovered turned into kidney inflammation and sepsis. I love your videos, and was excited to see this when I woke up! Thank you so much, im beyond excited for this new pack and hope I can get out of the hospital before it comes out. ily 🩷

Im amazed with simsies patience. I HATE repeating myself. And she says the same stuff all the time like its the first time shes ever said it lol (Example the watermark) Kudos to her. Such a professional haha

I love these types of houses so much, I'm so happy that they included them in the world and that you wanted to do a build in a similar style! They remind me so much of home back in Vietnam

It's so impressively perfect that when you started playing a landlord you immediately started making unethical decisions. Got so much into the landlord mindset.

Pleaseee start doing this for every new expansion pack and game pack. Its so entertaning and useful to see you explore the new gameplay. Loveee the longer videos.

I love how simsie is always using different pronouns and cultures like they them and Zara who has a hijab while pointing out we need more stuff like that

the lack of modest clothing that are hijabi-proof has been suchhh a struggle, like cc is pretty much indispensable if you want a wide variety of hijabi-proof outfits

I love this style of video it's still edited so there isn't too long of waiting screens and whatnot. I hope you do some more videos with this type of style. It would be a nice little treat like once a week or something. I hate how short form videos have become on youtube. THANK YOU KAYLA

I hope lilsimsie does more of these type of playthroughs and does a playlist on this family! ❤

I really like this format! The minimal editing made this a more realistic play session with all the loading screens, annoying sims 4 quirks, etc. I’d love another video like this!

I could see this being a family that might be fun to do a Wheel Spin challenge for if you want to return to them? I could see things like “evict your niece” or “rebel against grandma” being on the list! Loved the longer video ᵕ̈

id love to change career outfits in general but its a really good point that it removes cultural items for their work outfits

Kayla saying she's already decorating and they're lucky for that, is really landlord vibes 😂😂😂😂.

kayla: Also there's a cat in here...I don't know where he is shrimp: *right next to her head on screen, vibing*

I like that you didn't cut out your trouble-shooting process like when you had to cheat the money up on an empty lot because it helps newer players who will come up against things like that when they play. It's easy for you to know what to do to fix these things, but they aren't obvious to me, so I appreciate you showing it!

I'm obsessed with the family you made!!!! Ahhhh, an enby?? ❤ Sapphic couple with a child??? ❤❤ HIJABI character???? ❤❤❤ I love love love seeing representation in the sims, and I always know I can count on you to bring that, but you also go above and beyond my expectations!!!! ❤

Kayla before For Rent: “I don’t want to be a landlord! Landlords are heartless and mean!” Kayla after For Rent: “Yeah I’m down to evict the old lady for no reason”

An almost 2 hour video, wow! I love it already

Simsie! You need to start making long videos like this more often! This made my day 🩷

I just love how all the missing parent have just 1 "history" : Super dead. Yeah that a lilsimsie family

kayla i really hope you address or maybe clean these comments up a bit more. i thoroughly enjoyed this video and your thoughts but there seems to be very many closeminded people very focused on zara and one person saying randomly about min "ofc the trans sim is an evil thief." these comments are so gross, accusatory, not helpful, nor is it relevant to the actual game/video itself. simsie is always making diverse characters with crazy and weird backgrounds. anytime simsie makes a diverse sim with any type of "bad" trait, you chalk it up to simsie being prejudice. simsie also made zara a lesbian that wear a hijab because guess what.. you can be lgbt and muslim. just like how you can be christian and lgbt, its not the end of the world. keep your own personal issues aside, its not your video or sims save. maybe you all should take a look within asking why you would put this onto another person you don't truly know and not get all bent into shape over what one person does in their own sims game that they paid for.

1:10:37 I think it would be interesting to use the secrets we find to make changes to sims and builds. For example finding out secrets before going out on a dream home decorator job would be cool.

At 18:04 The layout in the room was very accurate to houses here in Latinamerica (the door goes straight to the living room). So don't worry!! Is a perfect layout

I love this style of video. I can't always watch twitch streams because of the timing, but this was perfect to drop in and out of.

I was refreshing over and over, I'm obsessed with this new pack!

hijabi appropriate clothing is so much needed i had the same struggle😭

Getting dinner and putting this on the living room tv. Gonna make a thing out of it, because it's exam season and I deserve it!

absolutely love that you included a queer muslim omg 🥹

as someone who’s very new to playing the sims and only has base game and cats and dogs, seeing new packs or just ones i don’t yet have is nice and i’m excited to get more packs in the future

youre so iconic. i realized i use your builds all the time and i hadnt noticed they were yours! you've helped my sims get through their literal lives, and for that i am forever grateful.

Tbh, I do not mind having this long video on the side while I play my Sims. It's kinda comforting!

please make more long videos!!! already loving this simsie era ❤

A feature length from lilsimsie? YES PLEASE!

the effort you put in to make inclusive and diverse sims is really amazing

I’m Excited To See This And How Everything Works!

Would LOVE more long form like this!!! I don't know how much more effort they take but if it isn't too much, I would listen to them every night!

Thank you for including hijabi sim in your video 🥰🙏✨

Changing control easily from one household to another is game-changing fr! Makes me very excited

I’m five minutes in and I can already tell I LOVE this video format for new packs! This is awesome!

The new toilet thing has the same animation as the werewolves peeing on the ground💀

My name is Min! And I use they/them (and he/him) pronouns! That really caught me off guard, so cool to see my name.

“There parents, no there like SUPER dead” Lilsimsie 2023

omg she made a hijabi sim ❤ muslim simsie stans RISE!!!

Simsies videos always make me come back to playing TS4 and enjoying it. She’s just such a joy to watch ✨

One thing about Kayla's gameplay that I love is how she always make diverse and inclusive Sims.

No need to apologize for the long video I WANTED ALL OF THIS! lol

having a 2 hour video from lilsimsie is a blessing

Seeing a hijabi lesbian really touches my heart as a hijabi queer person

The inclusivity in your videos is always so heartwarming🫶🏻🩷

Kayla did an Hour & 45 Minute video? WOW!! Congrats on pushing your comfort zone to bring us something worthy. I wish more simmers (AND EA) would follow your example. It takes me 5 days to make and edit a video that is this long. We appreciate your & the Ducks effort. (I would rather see you doing the official Sims livestreams, over the official creators.)

hey! i'm a big fan of your videos kayla!

ngl mango sticky rice thing is sooooooo gooooood as a Thai person I’m rlly impressed with the pack and they EVEN GOT A SPIRIT HOUSE I’m amazed and ur house design is pretty accurate for SEAs houses! Love it!

I LOVE the long form content!!! Thank you for giving us this amazing video ❤

Love love love the longer video!! Especially since it's a brand new pack. Thanks for the walk through!

I really enjoyed this video. It‘s a really authentic and honest way of getting to know a new pack without just focusing on the features or the items or the gameplay only. Just like everybody else would discover a new pack, really amazing 😊

I LOVE the long videos! I’m actually studying for my cardiovascular board exam and love watching your vids while i study. They’re so calming. Thanks for all that you do simsie!!

the queer muslim representation is everything omg

Still deciding if I should get this or not 🤣

I'm actually really happy to see a longer video from you especially because it covers so much of the pack! Thank you for all the great work ❤

I actually loved this style of video way more than many short ones!! Thanks for changing it up!

Normally, I wouldn't want to watch a video that's this long, but it seems right for this purpose. I wonder if, when building an apartment new (rather than renovating), it would be a good idea to wait to do the apartment divisions after the building was finished (so that you didn't have to go through the loading screens)

Thank you for doing a better overview than the official Sims livestream XD. I didn't see any of those features in the developer walkthrough!

Thank you Kayla! Almost 2 hour videos are so so fun to watch ❤ My evening/night is saved ❤

I was SO excited to see that you uploaded such a long video today! I just got out of surgery, and can’t really move or do much while in hospital, so this is so so so welcome and exciting to see!! Thank you so much for always putting out such positivity! You’re an absolute gift. 😊

(not sure if youll see this simsie but i love the way you add non-binary sims or just sims that use they/them in a lot of your families..! i loved even more when you decided that as Baby grew up (with the masculine frame) and she first used they/them and then ended up using she/her! it makes me so incredibly happy that you do it so casually and without feeling the need to explain or justify it! its so incredibly validating and comforting and ill never stop being thankful for that!)

I think it's better to finish the whole build first and then put it as a rental... So it lags less

If Simsie started making more hour+ long videos, I would be SO here for it. I love long content. This video felt like her streams. This was so much fun. Thank you, Kayla! (Though I’m sorry for suggesting longer videos for you to caption, Hope.)

These are absolutely the type of videos I love. I love listening to your videos while I crochet, or while I'm trying to relax for bed! I really really enjoyed this video!

Girl it may have taken me 2 days but this video was so great! I think these long videos are nice every once in a while. 😊👍

i really enjoyed this format of video! it was nice to not have to deal with twitch or have to watch multiple videos like while folding laundry or cleaning up. I hope this style of video isn't super labor intensive for you as far as recording and editing because i really like it and is a lot of fun and I would like to see more of it in the future if it is possible

You honestly make my day, I love your videos so MUCH.

I absolutely love this video! I love how much longer it is so I was able to watch it while studying for finals and it’s not like a twitch stream where if I pause it, I miss something! I hope in the future when more packs come out that you’ll do this again cuz I really really enjoyed it and it was sm fun to watch! Thank you Kayla!

love that your including hijabi sims❤️

I absolutely love 2 hour long videos😩

So glad you got to do this... We can save ourselves headaches by decorating first then splitting the lots. You are an angel :D

Long form videos are a treasure and I will watch every one. 2-3 hours is my go-to video length.

The wallpaper tool could be lacking because you divided the house to three different units. If you paint the walls before dividing, it should solve the problem. 😊

Girl i never comment on anything but I had to! This is a GREAT video!! this is what we (as simmers) expect and want from a youtuber as big as you. 10s 10s 10s across the board

i love these long vids as i can just clean my room sort everything out while watching

I love this in depth video! You're always so comforting, regardless of what you're doing
