I've heard from multiple creators that the pack is unplayable and they can't get it to work well enough to make content.I feel like there’s only three High School LPs that I see On my YouTube feed. James, Deli and the English Simmer. It’s weird seeing creators like xurbansimsx completely ignoring the high school stuff and doing an unrelated LP.
It is really only for the 2-3 in-game weeks the Sim is a teenager, so as part of a generational gameplay it's a nice addition to a life-state that didn't have much specifically for it before. But as a full series, probably not great, and the graduation/prom thing seems buggy as hell, I've not seen anyone actually manage to graduate correctly yet.I haven't had issues with the high school pack really, but...I can't see doing an entire LP for it. Idk. A few small simmers I follow are doing pack specific LPs but it's like, if you have teens, they're going to go to school, so if you're already doing an LP, just play it in that??
And I mean, James is basically done with the high school part of his LP so it doesn't seem like it gives you enough value to make an entire LP out of...
Replay ability, sure, if you play families, but for an entire series? Maybe that's just me though, idk.
Makes you wonder if Deli really likes James or is he just convenient to her? So she doesn't fully have to fund her lifestyle.Deli got James to get her coffee from the coffee shop again (a tiny one too ; I'll never get over how this is the dumbest shit to spend time and money on) and she called James "coffee boy" in the video (LP), which I know is supposed to be a joke, but I find it very
Noooooo, where ?omg Deli forgetting her token nonbinary sim's pronouns and putting in an edit that they are still adjusting to the pronouns to cover her butt
Do you think if James and Deli broke up, that Deli would start putting effort into her videos again or completely pivot to something else to save her channel?Makes you wonder if Deli really likes James or is he just convenient to her? So she doesn't fully have to fund her lifestyle.
I think she would keep doing videos, whatever their quality, because I don’t think she could do anything else. I don’t see her ever doing a 9-5 job.Do you think if James and Deli broke up, that Deli would start putting effort into her videos again or completely pivot to something else to save her channel?
My ideal was pretty much the 'every lot challenge' challenge that James did - I love series where ppl try to make the game as hard as possible and roll w it that way. And to be fair, I really like lilsimsies 'can I get rich by...' series. I think it's fun, it always starts in a rags to riches way, and it's funny seeing what whacky things can happen. But of course I've also watched Kevin's Jim Pickens series like one hundred times lolWe've talked a lot about what we don't like, so I'm curious to hear what your ideal let's play/let's player would be. My ideal let's player/story teller would be someone who has interesting ideas and fun/unique gameplay. I like stories, generational style play with some twists and turns, but not overly full of drama or clichés. I'd also like them to value the time of their audience and not create empty episodes or stretch videos out so they can get more ads. Just a decent human being with a penchant for storytelling, please! I have yet to find anyone that checks all these boxes, but I keep looking.

I like generational play - watching families grow up, not with too much blatantly obvious manipulation/cheats/editing being used. I like things to progress fairly steadily, with all aspects of the game being used, and while drama and a bit of chaos keeps things entertaining, let it have a long-term impact on the storyline. Don't just do things, and then next episode have it forgotten, let there be natural progression.We've talked a lot about what we don't like, so I'm curious to hear what your ideal let's play/let's player would be.

That’s a terrible excuse. The pack has run just fine for me and a lot of twitch streamers have had no issues with it either.I've heard from multiple creators that the pack is unplayable and they can't get it to work well enough to make content.
I agree with this. I also wish there was more chaotic spontaneity to his storylines (even if that requires a little bit of engineering).James is my favourite currently, though he is VERY guilty of stretching both individual videos and the Lets' Play series out for too long. I don't think he has one, but a good editor would chop every episode down to 30 mins of brisker gameplay and he'd be much the better for it. But he does have a pleasant speaking voice, knows his stuff, and always -very amusingly sometimes- plays through the repercussions of his choices (such as the utter chaos that resulted from his student loan choices in the old University Lets' Play, or his vampire having the fatal flaw of being instantly unlikeable, which made raising a family with happy children *very* difficult)
I know for certain some haven’t touched it because they find it boring. It seems most of the GC now just do reviews of build and buy and cas and then leave it.That’s a terrible excuse. The pack has run just fine for me and a lot of twitch streamers have had no issues with it either.
And everyone is you and who you watch, right? Maybe check out reddit and other places people post about their issues before you make blanket statements like that. Even console players are having issues, like being unable to open their games at all.That’s a terrible excuse.

That's really smart. Don't have to deal with the bugs and glitches if you just build and create sims.I know for certain some haven’t touched it because they find it boring. It seems most of the GC now just do reviews of build and buy and cas and then leave it.
