watching this in 2019 and laughing at the toddler update in sims 4 cause I forgot that was an thing 😂

Oh thank god! Im sick and have nothing to do, now i can watch 40 minutes of Flabaliki.

You should do an indoor coaster for the sci-fi area. An alien invasion theme or a technology lab theme or something.

it's funny that you said "if you like my personality here, you'll like me there". because the reason I came to Flabiliki (did I spell that right? 😂) is because I liked your personality on SimSupply

With recording in bulk Flab, why don't you do a bit of both? Record say three hours a time and put them out in hour increments, that way you can always see your feedback and implement part way through etc. That way you can sort of do a bit of both.

i went from sim supply to flabiliki and heard the same twitter speech twice, love it

There are more lights in the building menu. There are big flood lights and lots of themed lights. I don't know if you already knew this or you just forgot?

tbh i really like the tidious work you do to make the surrounding of the coaster look good, more than just placing stuff and creating new areas. I love how you decorate rides and areas. i'd love to see more of that, it's really NOT boring!

Rock placing simulator.

It doesn't matter to me if you'd prefer to record it all in a row. Sure there'd probably some little annoying thing to change, but I think there's gonna be that regardless. After all you can't make everyone happy, even with the feedback. I'd only be happy to have a series where you genuinely enjoy making it (Not that I don't think you enjoy these). You're one of my favourite KZfaqrs and I support you :)

You're only human and keeping up two KZfaq channels is a lot of work. It's understandable to lose motivation. I just want to say I have found so many new games because of you and this channel and I think that's the best part of what you do. Getting to play so many different types of games. I hope you find the spark again soon and will continue to support whatever you decide to do. Lots of love ❤️

James please put more focus into this series, we all love it. I religiously watch both channels, and this is the one series I am most excited about. Although it is great to have a lot of content over on The Sim Supply, I think the majority of us prefer to see an equal amount of each series. But ultimately we like to see content you're passionate about because if you're enjoying making it, it's going to show.

James, as long as you're having fun playing a game, we're having fun watching it. So play whatever you want! We'll always be here!

Please don't stop this series...

maybe stream all your gameplay for the 2 weeks you play it. and than cut the streams up into eposides. So you still get feedback from the stream.

That blank area could use, like, a little hunting lodge or a pioneer cabin... Maybe an abandoned covered wagon?

love this series . every new episode brings a little sunshine to my day.

If you're having fun, we're having fun. I don't think it matters which game you play, I always enjoy each series. I just can't deal with 5 day gaps between uploads!

So wild watching this is 2023 with the sims releasing toddlers in James’s timeline and right now the sims just released infants

I just finished your seven toddler challenge and now I'm watching this! :D

I really enjoy watching this series! i always look forwards to it. In the empty section near the log flume, you could just pit some advertising signs, food stalls etc.

Hi James just wanted to say that i really enjoy your videos and i think that we, your viewers, should be your motivation. Every time you upload a new video my heart just starts beating a little faster and i have the best 40 min of the week. Thank you for all your work i really enjoy it. :D

I think that that's mostly a decision you have to make yourself. Sure we as a community can offer advice on the topic, but in the end it depends on whether you prefer recording in bulk or episode per episode. Generally speaking, I think none of us are going to die if it takes you a couple episodes to implement comments, but that's just me. As a general tip maybe, I feel like you'd probably feel better about it if you played more games for the channel at once. To me it feels like you concentrate on a single (or two) games at once and then play a lot of stuff for them. If you had a couple more series going on at once, perhaps you wouldn't get sick of the games as easily, as you spend a lot of time inbetween doing other games. Sure, that'd mean that there would be more time between episodes, but I wouldn't mind waiting a little longer for the next part, if that made it more fun for you. Cause that's what it's all about. You should still have fun playing those games and not just feel the need to do it for your viewers.

James, I'd love to see you record a series like you mentioned, the way you find it comfortable c: As you said, maybe a day of gaming, cut up in separate episodes to watch. Just to try it out. I understand that feedback is fun to receive and work with, and I really like how interactive you are with your watchers! But I think it's worth a try c: No matter what, really, I'll look forward to your content ^^

I love your personality and I watch all you channels 😊. Also 100 toddler Challenge was absolutely hilarious your frustration was so funny

`to fix the problem with the orange coaster, cut the launch rail a little bit shorter, increase the speed and connect the launch rail more directly to the station because the reason your fear and excitement averages are so low is because of the abundant stretch of track before the launch rail.

James, as I was listening to you talk about why there hasn't been as many videos lately, I kept thinking about the beginning of series. You get so excited and continue an episode for another 10-15 minutes because you just want to do one more thing. The feedback part of your series does help you and is important to you, but that doesn't mean you have to stop playing at around 30 minutes. My suggestion is, you can record for 4-5 hours at a time, if you don't automatically want feedback. I remember some times where you ran out of creative brain power because you'd used so much and asked what should be done next to give you some ideas. In those cases, post the videos and get the feedback.Recording for hours at a time would give you a couple days worth of content, therefore, you don't have to play the same game every single day. You'd get a break from the games that are getting on your nerves. It also makes it possible for you to play the games you are into as much as you'd like. You would have to mention in your recordings that viewers can leave comments and that they wouldn't be taken into account until episode X.Seems to me that a version of that would give you the best of both worlds. You'd make personal you happy while also making professional you happy.Hope this was helpful.

Since there are no other games, maby you can try diffrend aspects of games that you already played (like a mini natural disasters series). If you don't wand to play those games, it's totaly ok to take a break!

a reverse banked coaster would be a really cool addition to your park.

James, I'm subscribed to both this channel and The Sim Supply. Love your vids and I really hope you will find your motivation back for this channel, keep up the good work!

Congrats on the great growth at SimSupply! Here's hoping you get a similar boom here!

James, I think you need to have a happy medium of both 30-60 minute parts every day, and a mass recording. I think a series needs both of those. I also think that will help make you less bored.

dude I love this stuff!! really enjoy the flipy coasters. I think you need to spread out more on a park, and do like gardens and stuff.... love this game lol

There is some really good ambient lights in the building section! Area lights and flood lights are cool

Honestly I just want you to do whatever it takes to make you happy and get you excited about creating content! I mean I watch your videos simply because I like you! I almost always have one of your videos playing. I mean you could do a series where you just stare at a blank wall and tell us about what you had for lunch and I'd still watch it because you'd somehow still make that entertaining. So basically, do whatever you want.

The sim supply led me to this channel! 😃Ur amazing James!

On the outside of the white door on the log flume add a wood and timber arch to blend it in with the theme. you may have to extend it out a bit to clear the doors. love what you are doing so far!

maybe make a recording session series of a game and a constant feedback series to see which works better with you stay awesome dude

James, I love watching both this channel and TSS, and for me, I think you should play and record whatever makes you happy. I'm on part 35 of City Skylines Seasons 3, and currently watching 2-3 episodes a day. i love it, PC, The Sims, whatever you record, I will watch it regardless.

I'm totally surprised that you're "only" at 500,000 followers on Sim Supply (or even 200,000 on this channel). You're obviously popular enough that the Simgurus gave you a shout out during their Vampires launch live-stream.

I love your content Flabs! I even watch you play games that I don't enjoy playing myself! I'd like to see you play theme hospital (not because ConflictNerd started playing it) but it's always been a classic. And also the original Airline Tycoon Evolution Keep up the great content!

I loved the fun episode you did with Conflict Nerd on Astroneer. I think doing it whichever way you'll enjoy best, whether that's playing n recording for a couple hours then replying to feedback 3-4 episodes later, or whatever makes you enjoy making the content.

I'd love to see you play Rimworld. It has a creative aspect in base building and design, but it also has some survival game play.

pirate bay behind the mountain would be a great addition

James, I started with your Sim Supply channel and was apprehensive about watching on Flabaliki! I'm glad I came by, though. Now I get twice the content from you.

Thank you ! This series is amazing

Honestly I'd rather watch 6/7 episodes filmed at once without feedback, that you played and enjoyed and really got into, than watch the same episodes but with feedback that you barely played without much motivation. Feedback, to me, isn't important. I like watching your videos for what you do, and if you mess up, well that's part of the fun too. Just find a schedule that you enjoy and we'll enjoy it too :)

I really like these series, partly because of your excitement but also because of the game. If you wouldn't enjoy it, we probably wouldn't either but as for suggestions, maybe try some unknown games? Or just smaller ones because in my opinion they're very interesting to watch. Absolutely loving your recent uploads on thesimsupply tho!!

I think I would rather see more new games rather than bulk recording. I think getting feedback is always more useful in the long run than not - in a similar way that it's helpful to, say... have someone read over a paper you write before turning it in. Eventually, it becomes really hard to see the mistakes in your own work when you've looked at it for so long, you know? But ultimately you have to do whatever is going to make you happiest and help you out the most! That's what we all really want - it's no fun to watch someone play a game that makes them miserable! :)

The mountain pathway looked cooler when there was no lights. And it looked cool as you you walked through only seeing the light from the other side. :) love the episode, Do the series the easiest way for you. Your real, genuine fans will not care how you make videos as long as you have videos. :)

thank you for this James! 💜

Fun little game: take a shot every time James says 'basically'

I know this is a year late (I only just found this series having picked up Planet Coaster again recently) but I think a long live stream is a good way to do it, with live chat on Twitter or Twitch that you can respond to whilst playing; then you can go over the footage and time lapse appropriate bits, chat with the fans and their ideas, and do a segue after the time lapse to say "so and so just told me to do this" or something and go back into full presentation mode ;) Great series, by the way! I wish there was a pub manager game... Sigh...

Tropico 5, anno, banished and hello neighbor are pretty cool games too :) and your videos with Zeus where you play over cooked are hilarious:D but take your time, and find your motivation again! Sometimes you just have periods where your motivation vanishes :) hugs from Denmark :D

The exact distraction I was hoping for... thank you!!

I would tell you to do what you enjoy!! The enjoyment for me is what makes the content entertaining. So batch record. Or not but do what makes you happy. At the end of the day your playing games they should be fun. 👍

I was sitting there watching him put rocks under the track going “just get a smaller rock.” XD

Same as for you. You don't want to play the same game every day. And I don't want to look the same Let's Play every day. Sometimes I skip episodes and hope for a new/another game in any of my subscribed channels.

you should just record multiple episodes, the most important is that you have fun making video's!

wish you did more of these videos bruh. love this series

I feel like it's just really important that you do what makes you happy and what you enjoy, because it really shows to us viewing if you're not enjoying it and we don't enjoy it if you don't! We want to have fun along with you! That's the beauty of watching this kind of video. I mean, also the puns. Lbr, I'm mainly here for the puns, James. (jk jk).

Have you maybe tried storybased games? Because it's always more enjoyable if the youtube-creator enjoys making videos. :) And maybe record two-four episode in a row? Suggestions: We Happy Few Last of Us Walking Dead Until Dawn Stonehearth the Long Dark Oxenfree Sally Face Sort the Court Reigns the Final Station Cat President Anarcute Democracy 3 Plague Inc. Papers Please All games I enjoyed, hope maybe this can bring a bit of inspiration :)

Oh hey, welcome back, I thought you'd died ;) Just kidding...seriously I think it's better to play when you're in the mood for it rather than force yourself to keep to a fixed schedule, as you say it doesn't come across so well if you're doing it when you don't want to !

Flabaliki You Should Make A Little Pond With A Boat In It And At The Sci-Fi Area You Should Have A Ride In The Lake/Pond Thing...

I think the door on the log flume looks kinda weird. What about getting rid of it and putting smoke/fog machines at the exit of the cave, so the riders still can't see the drop until they've gone through the smoke/fog? It's all hazy and then BAM, plummeting down!

Yay finally another episode I might have gone mad if I had to wait another day

This it strange that I subscribed to both of his channels because it's voice is so smooth and joyful?

I love this series

Also I really wish you could do more Minecraft with Deli! I miss that series so much!

I recently rewatched your Zoo Tycoon 2 let's play which is one of my favorite games. I like the bulk play and then chop method. You could do all of Zoo Tycoon 2's campaign mode like that similarly to RCT3's career mode. I would love to see your progression through the game and see your attempt at the campaign scenarios. It something you've done before, but in a different way. It's up to you though.

You should do a miniseries on that subway planning game! I really wish I could see more of that/smaller, 5-10 episode series. It would probably be easier to handle than massive thousand episode series.

The mechanic is in the sci-fi area, he's probably got shoes that let him float or something.

awsome episode james :-D

I hear you Flabaliki it's good to play other games sometimes bc i've played TS4 for such a long time (religiously actually) and recently I couldn't bring myself to play it anymore so I'm giving myself a break. Honestly, waiting a long while to see you play PC is worth it if you feel as if it's genuine and enjoyable for you. I'll see you on TheSimSupply though (congrats on the subs btw) considering that's how I found out about this channel in the 1st place xD

I love this series please don't end it x

My two favourite channels that are similar to Flabiliki are NerdCubed and Northernlion. Both of those guys switch it up between one-off let's plays, and ongoing regular series. The regular series tend to be batch recorded and the one-offs are with regular feedback. I think a mixed format would work well for Flabiliki. SimSupply is more dependent on regular audience participation IMO. A smaller YT channel I love right now is Geekism, and he is small enough to take on the regular feedback (it's not full time YT). Even then, I would prefer he batch record simply to get more content out. I have to admit, I didn't renew my sub to your Twitch because I felt I wanted more content first. Still love all your stuff either way! Aussies represent 🐨

James, there are other lights in the "building" section, it has an area light which is very good for ambient lighting.

Future now. Yeah, those numbers are significant, but tiny compared to the current numbers. I think this was actually around the time I found the Sim Supply, so it's extra cool to hear about it and remember it all this time later

As long as there is constant theme park simulators then I am happy

I'm in favor of recording multiple videos at once. It sounds like you're trying way too hard to include feedback rather than entertain and be happy. If you get tired of a game, I'll get tired of watching you play it and then we'll have another 10 min intro of you trying to work out how to run your channel.

James you are the best youtuber

i kind of liked the wind pump in the blank area where the water ride is!

Hell to the yes oh yes!

On the log flume around the back at the view, you should add some stalagmites. Kind of open cave-esc.

You should play old school Sierra city building games like Pharaoh or Caesar III. Those games are a lot of fun.

Hey James. I'm a subscriber to your Twitch, and YT TheSimsSupply and of course here. It makes perfect sense you would lose interest or motivation with games. Sometimes games get so repetitive they start to lose their appeal. So I believe it's good to take a break and try something new. Having a nice rotation of different things kind of keeps things fresh(ish). IMHO

I've always thought that the most enjoyable content to watch, is the content that the creator enjoys playing. I haven't seen the end of the cities skylines series, but if at some point I watched it and I felt that "your heart wasnt into it" then I would almost lose interest. Its just such a different experience, when the creator is having fun, instead of watching something that feels forced.

You should move the door closer to the edge so that when the doors open, you drop.

The windmill would go great in that vacant spot by the western coaster. The windmill could be powering the ride.

To how much you play/upload depends on how the game is. For creative games it can be quite annoying for a watcher (and yourself) to find a error in your design when it's uploaded. If you do for example make 3 episodes of 1 single gameplay we have to wait 3 episodes complaining about a mistake before it's fixed. But for example lets Tomb Raider or Skyrim. There it could be usefull. Since you aren't quickly making design mistakes people point you at. And if you are really stuck you can always turn to us.

The Sim Supply! I thought you were familiar, but I briefly looked through your channel and couldn’t find any other videos I thought I had seen. Mystery solved, and now I know I’m not crazy.

In the log flume area, where you were debating scenery you should build a fire watch tower!

Maybe you could try out the long session recordings for a series and see how it goes? I really think you could do with longer time between seasons of series. People who don't watch you for your personality won't like that, but those of us who do will appreciate it since you'll enjoy playing the game after having a longer break from it.

i think having a good variety in games is good. also if u frown at making a certain type of video/game/series u should do what u want to do because that passion will feed everyone, the viewers in return. omds sounding all quotey. JUST DO WHAT U BELIEVE IS RIGHT!

I think you should just do it the way you want to. The thing with the feedback sucks but just for the time until you find motivation again and until you get back to doing things normal, I see nothing wrong with just recording seven hours of a game you actually enjoy and then splitting it into episodes. As long as you're happy and as long as you don't get annoyed with certain games too much. We'll all be here either way. :)

maybe you could record a few parts, then have one episode where you do all the changes, everyone suggested, an the last video you recorded in the session you leave a notice saying post all your suggestions on that video

awesome video!

For the monorail at the beginning of the park make it overgrown brick.

giant rustic/frontier water tower that's bursting at the seams and spraying water down? for the log flume set piece.

In the blank spot in the log flume you could put the broken boat bow sticking up out of the ground. Maybe put some water there with fire and water shooting out of the boat. 😎
