I really enjoy long-term family playing! I once had a family that I played for 13 generations. They also had their own cemetery built in the city. And there weren't only graves but some sort of memory museum as well. So basically each generation had their wall space. It had few photos and was somehow decorated to match their vibes. E.g. one sim lived all of his life in Sulani so there were seashells that he collected leaning up the wall. Another couple had a small house in the woods and lots of cats living with them. So there were photos of each of their cats (and cat toys). Their wall was also very wooden and old-looking. My favorite one though was a cool guitarist. He really liked dyeing his hair in bright colors. I literally changed his hair every few days! And every single time he had a new hair color I did a photo of him in a matching surrounding. So by the end he had tons of pictures each with its own color scheme. There are also two of his guitars in his "memory space". It was always so fun to come there and just look at all of this memories of each generation. And of course seeing how it all progresses during a long period of time is very interesting and kinda sad

Simsie: “I don’t have other friends, it’s just me and my cat.” Dan RN: 🥺

i enjoyed the 'moving in' part with you placing all the clutter a ton xx

At this point, I'm just glad that the house is really a house😂😂😂

I’m currently at generation 18 of my legacy and there are some interesting places throughout the world lol. I have one big main house called the legacy house that all the heirs move into when they become elders, and each room is styled after an heir or their partner (kitchen is styled after my gen 4 chef, playground is styled after my gen 10 family man, seance room is styled after my gen 13 paranormal investigator, etc.) I also take very elaborate photos of each heir and their spouse, which are hung up in their rooms. Near that lot is my cemetery lot, which has graves of the extended family and a mausoleum for the heirs and partners. Each pair gets an altar decorated with things that signify their life. And I’ve done my best to keep the main houses each gen has lived in throughout the world, so I can go back and show it off if I want to. But yeah if you want collectibles, like five full collections can be found at the legacy house haha

Simsie really can't finish this legacy without naming an heir Tinker Bell

simsie: the painting has to be placed exactly 12.375cm away from the door or the build sucks also simsie: so what if my car is floating??

I recently rediscovered the Mosquito digital photo frame thingy and honestly it is SO helpful ! You can just stick the rest of the pictures that aren't on display in there and you get surprised every now and then with like a great great granpa or random cousin pic. So fun! Love the new house btw 😍 Edit: forgot to mention 16:37 🤣🤣 the danger corner got me

I have not yet seen this video but I assume it'll be fabulous like every other, thank you kayla we all appreciate you and your hard work.

this makes me wanna play the game with several generations again. i used to do that with sims 3 but never in sims 4.

Pretty much every time I watch one of simsie’s videos, I think about how much work, discipline, and time it would take to upload EVERY SINGLE DAY. Not only that but, then she streams on twitch everyday too! She’s kept it up for years too. It’s honestly amazing.

I love the gallery walls! Can’t wait to see what blue gets up to in their time as the heir!

this house is giving me major sims 3 vibes. like, reminding me of jessamica’s 100 baby challenge house. must be the use of platforms. really great build, simsie.

I have a legacy family, were I am on Generation 9. Grandma used to be an Astronaut. Grandma always brought aliens in glasses around. My sims moved and so did the aliens. We have a painting of a great-great-great-great-grandfather in his sleeping clothes (he actually was the dad in Gen 2 or 3) around, that is always in the house. And we brought his wifes diploma in theater with us on every move. So yeah... We have lots of wierd things. Maybe somewhere there might be a stolen ATM...

It just popped into my head you could have a family name of Suburban. And then you could name a child Blue, for our iconic blue suburbans.

i am always blown away by her attention to detail. ive been wathcing this lets play since the beginning and every new house build is like a walk down memory lane. also, i am I the only one that was blindsided by "I'm moving in a week irl?" we haven't had a house update in so long that I totally forgot about the reno!! 🤣

Thank you simsie! My cat died a few weeks ago and your light humour and your comments making little digs at yourself always cheers me up. I love the new house too

I love watching your videos and now I’m saving up to get my own laptop to play Sims 4 😊

did you know that eco lifestyle had an item that works like a storage space? it looks like a big cardboard box and you can put stuff in it! it works the same way the fridge does when you drag food in and out of it. you can even name them to understand where are your fish or rocks or whatever I don't know if it could be useful for this let's play but I use these boxes to temporarily store some items when my sims are moving so i dont have to scroll through my household inventory all the time and also to keep my collections in order but! an important note! i heard you should never put paintings and photos in there because they turn black for some reason and if you do this they are lost forever

Simsie: I don't have any friends, it's just me and my cat Dan: What about me ?!?!? Your literal husband ?!?

Honestly, the problem with not knowing what a pet needs is why I started downloading mods to begin with. Downloaded the playable pets mod, just so I could see what my pets needed so they didn't run away.

Thank you for rekindling my love of the Sims i was a big Sims 3 fan and i got Sims 4 when it first released but i forgot about it till this year and now I'm once again enthralled because of your content!!

In my current legacy I have a pond and a dead cowplant, and I pose the dead cowplant on top of the pond decoratively, and that's the backdrop for all my sims' family photos. I have a really excellent wedding photo of I think my 2nd? gen and it's beautiful, they're in their little outfits, the moon is out, the lighting is working, and the dead cowplant looking over the murder pond is squarely in frame. I love that this game lets you blend sweet storytelling and dead plant on murder pond in the same family like that!

Simsie: "It's just me and her really" Dan:

I’ve been here since generation 3, and I have never stopped watching the series! I love the new house, and I can’t wait for the new generation Simsie!

i saw this video before i knew about the legacy challenge, this video is why i watched it bc i had to know the origin of all this stuff💀💀💀💀but coming back to watch it now that i’m caught up it’s beautiful to see how it all came together

I genuinely think this is the best build you’ve ever done, it turned out so good!

Can the next Bell heir be named Adore as in Adore Bell??? ding dong lol

I love how clean and spacious this house is. And the ghost wallpaper feature wall looks oddly classy for what it is LOL

I dont know if this has been done but have you ever tired making a house furniture first? Then walls and floors??

5:17 - the only kinda weird thing my sims carry with them are the previous heir’s (and pets) graves so every few sun days I get all 28 sun graves and 5 pet graves out to strengthen the connections bc I have an attachment to my dead sims:D

I love Kayla's build and decorating skill. It's so cool. She's also helped me on certain things. I've been using them more in my builds and I see lots of improvement. :)

I love playing with families long-term! I’m only on gen 2 of my legacy because, before that, my main save was my 100 baby challenge, but I’ve started accumulating some special items. My founder was a famous musician so she has that really fancy piano, and as an elder she got really into knitting, so there’s cute rugs and little toys all over. I also had her knit baby and toddler onesies that I’ll probably pass down through future generations. And I’ve already got a bunch of family photos, including some of the founder and her second husband (he died before their only daughter was born) and one of each gen 2 girl (there are 3 total) with Yamachan at the Festival of Youth. I can’t wait to see what else they collect in the future.

I loved watching you furnish the house, seeing the love you have for this family shine through 🥰. Watching you on KZfaq gave me so many fun ideas for my legacy family, even just having a legacy homestead for my NSB at all (not to mention the NSB 😉). I love taking photos of my sims now, I never used to do that. The upstairs hallway of the homestead is my main photo wall, I have "portrait" photos of all the generations at various stages and its SO much fun to revisit. I don't think I'm going to have room for all 10 generations but we'll see! My favorite room so far was the master suite during Gray Gen. He was a hopeless romantic and he and his daughter were BFFs. His room was filled with artwork she (and her sister) had done, her trophies from scouts, even have a playdough ladybug she made when she was a toddler (thank you PandaSama playdough mod!)! Then of course a TON of pictures. Gray being the super long lived athlete I never got Plum moved in there, Orange moved out shortly after Gray died and hasn't moved back yet (soon!). I'm not looking forward to redecorating that one! Good luck with your own move! Moving is always stressful but at least its a good opportunity to get rid of stuff you didn't even remember you had.

I love your videos where there’s a budget challenge- literally was hoping to see more today and then I saw you uploaded this!

I was literally waiting for this 😂😂.can’t wait to watch, you always build and furnish amazingly

5:02 I do have my legacy family have a “box” which sounds really inconspicuous but is totally on purpose. I use the cardboard box from eco lifestyle and put things like death flowers and cowberry plants inside of them….as well as spoiled pufferfish nigiri (for obvious reasons)

I love my generational families!! My favorite thing to do is save the grave stones and have my past sims’ ghosts come back from my grave yard! I also love your videos!

kayla you are SOOO TALENTED & CREATIVE 💜 im ~obsessed~ with how you use family photos from so many generations ago! thank you for sharing your work with all of us 🥰✨

i cannot WAIT to see you play in this save tomorrow ❤

I am honestly in LOVE with your builds!

I'm so excited to see the interior! The video of the exterior got me through jury duty

I use the digital pictures frame from the Moschino pack. And after a Gen passes away I add thier photos to the gallery wall. I place about 9 frames on that wall size them differently and set it to change every Sim hr. And I get to see them all pop up from time to time. Haha there's always a Sim in my household that is a great photographer.

The new house looks awesome! I would have had such a hard time bulldozing the house with all their furniture in it that way. My Legacy is on Gen 4/5 right now and my household inventory is so full because I end up keeping everything.😅

I'm on generation 22 currently and I keep one of those creepy dolls from the paranormal pack because a sim a while back was a paranormal investigator and brought it home. Kids love it! They've got some graves and skeletons under the basement too.

Kayla I am in love with this build… Gerald would be so proud! 😊Sending love from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ❤

Love the new house you built and the furnishings is so lovely especially with all the sentimental pieces added in. Yes, I take all my sims collection with them from things they acquired along the way. It’s what makes their house feel special 😊

simsie you ate this build upppp ♡

I'm so happy I was able to download this house I'm in Love with all her builds 💙 Thank you Kayla 😊

I’ve really enjoyed watching the Bell family grow through every generation! I also like the personal touches of adding all of the family photos around the house. It really makes it that more personal and lived in. I honestly want to make sure to do that more in my Sims households.

i think this house is my favourite one you've built thus far! excellent job!

At this point, I feel so nostalgic! I love this family so much 😭

The house looks amazing ♡♡!! I love legacy challenge houses cuz theyre always so weird, I've been playing with a family for 5 generations and all of the heirs and their spouses are celebrities in game so i ended up with a ton of trophies and rewars from their careers so now everytime i get a new house i make sure to have a thropy room to display all their achievements and i also replaced the del sol valley museum to a museum dedicated to my family photos 🤧♡

YES! I was soooo excited to see this video after watch the exterior speed build yesterday!!!!!

The face Dan must have made editing this when you said you only had your cat. Lol

I've been playing the same linage since 2015 and I go through multiple, multiple generations in a year so it's quite funny to think about. They don't have anything weird though, that's what I come here for xD This house is absolutely beautiful Kayla, I am obsessed with it.

I love this play through, I might binge watch again as I’m holiday from work 😊

Playing SIMS 4 and watching lilsimsie at the same time..you always inspire me :)

I haven’t tuned in to this series in a while, can’t believe that Blue is already an adult! Also sad that Blake is on their way out again :( but glad to see they were brought back!

i love this series so much

Waiting for it to be done so I can download haha! My legacy is onto generation 20- it’s been a long time regular life span. Neighbourhood story progression made the story so much more fun

I downloaded this after finally updating my game and just to let you know, the terrain (possibly misspelled) in the front yard with the second level was gone

love the vid, love the legacy

I absolutely adore this house, it’s crazy similar to my family home the house I grew up in ❤

I'm so excited for thisss

I do the same with the photos, I am obsessed but I also use the Ravasheen photo ting to make them into polaroids and taped up pics so it is easier to to display a bunch at a time.

i’ve watched every video of this legacy challenge, my favorite thing to look forward too !!! ❤️

I started making gallery photos of my sims because of you and I CAN'T STOP

I’ve been waiting so many hours for this

I never play the same family for multiple gens so I decided to do it along with you, but on normal lifespan. I also took the opportunity to do things I've neglected from some of the packs like herbalism and shell collecting and diving photography. So now my Sims have a cabinet of 'heirlooms' like a big conch shell, a playful statue etc! It feels wrong to just have them in the household inventory!

You should do a build challenge where you work completely backwards. Like, start with clutter and accessories, then do furniture, then make the rooms,then the outside last

I'm in love with this house, I'm so gonna download it

You are such a talented sim builder. I enjoy watching your build videos

this is my fave simsie build

I love the driveway idea! I’ll have to try that on a build. Thanks for inspiring me to build more and even start my our KZfaq channel!

just opened youtube and this blessed my eyes ❤

I’ve been waiting ever since you uploaded the exterior build ❤

Yess this might be my fav part loove this house❤❤❤

Beautifully decorated as always! They're going to love their new home I'm sure! :D I am impressed by 8 generations, I have a family I made when I first played Sims 4, but I get distracted by new packs and make saves for each pack, so I have a supernatural save for my werewolves, aliens etc, where they can have fun with Sims, which is actually a clone of my first ever save lol, and then I have a save for the wedding pack but their alternate universe versions of them have now started interacting with my legacy which is weird lol. So with that in mind I'm on the third generation, all my generation 2 spares though have their own families and I rotationally play them all with aging off, so I can ensure they graduate high school, learn to ride a bike now lol, and then sort them out so they get partners etc, and then I return to my heir's family and turn aging on lol, my husband calls me a controlling person cos of this, but I like them all to be happy, and they're all my family. I'm just now playing my last second generation spares to get their kids who are mainly kids and teens through school. Then I'll move on to the Gen 3 spares and sort them too lol! I do have the neighbours of my legacy that got entangled into my family at all generations so they too get added to my rotational play lol, one of my friends marvels at how I keep them all straight dealing with so many, but I love just helping them get through their lives. The game does surprise me and unravel some of the plans i have for them, which again my husband laughs at lol! This week though my current family I was playing, the Behr-Ojo's, it's Yuki Behr and her wife Miko Ojo's family (her sister Candy married a Gen 2 spare and I liked Yuki's hair too much to not play with her lol), she has one teen, four kids and a dog, and I thought I'd transported myself into a Lilsimsie legacy, the kid set fire to the science kit (not enough mental skill) and not one sim was able to put it out, the fire got sooo big (outside thankfully) but it was crazy! Then today i played them, and they were having 'Spooky day' that I made for them to celebrate and both parents have at least level 7 skill in cooking and they set fire to the stove, and it was the same sim that nearly burned in the science fire and I tried to get her to extinguish it to get over her fear of the previous fire but nope she goes into panic mode. That was the last day I was playing them before I switched to another family thankfully lol! I'm a little scared to go back again lol!

I’ve been waiting for this video all day🥰

Yayy I was so excited for this

Love Simsie's commentary lol

love your videos!!!

All of your vids always make your fans smile keep up the good work!!!!!!

I did a legacy a little while ago where the first matriarch was a painter but she ended up dying before completing one of her pieces, and I made a copy of every single one of her masterpieces, so I took all those paintings, including the incomplete one and hung them up in every single house for the entire legacy, using the completed masterpieces to frame the incomplete canvas, it looked pretty cool.

OH. MY. GOODNESS. kayla this is hands down your BEST build. Its so.. nice. im not sure how to describe it but i think this is your best build!

Kayla i love it!!!! I would love to see you build a suburban house with no budget and any CC you want! I know you don’t use CC a lot but I would love to see a build from you with no limits!

So excited!!!

Hiii I love your vids they made me play sims!

Was waiting on this!!!!

Love the house. I can't wait to see the let's play for this house.

Love this house!

For me, I really like Sims builds. (What do you like about Sims builds?) It’s building! A chance to be creative! It has THE POND it has THE POND! I can tell you all about it!

I really love your buildings. There is no corner in your House that is empty and the decorations... Ughh soo good. You got taste 👍

i’m living for this next generation!

My current and only sim family is 14 generations in and I turned the museum in Willow Creek into their family museum. Every generation has 2 paintings and some sort of item as well as all of the urns of all the previous sims due to how unreasonable it was to drag everything to a new site each generation.

My comfort video 🥰

I have a 18 generation legacy family right now and They always have a radio from the very first generation and it hasn't broken once. I keep putting on in the middle of the dining table. 😂😅

I love watching your videos

16:41 the danger corner LMAO
