In the intro of her "Huge Sims 4 update and new life stage!" video, she says that they're staying in Sydney for a few months. I'm also curious to know why lolDeli mentioned getting some furniture for her Sydney room and James just ordered a new green screen over there... the conclusion being they are staying for a while.
Yeah I feel like calling her a hypocrite and stuff is a bit far. She kind of had to make videos pretending leaks were new information to her because she always makes those types of video - the absence of them is more likely to tip someone off to them being legit.I don’t think them telling lies previously about packs they know about is bad? Like someone said they’re probably under NDAs and may even be told to try throw people off the scent. As long as no one is getting harmed I don’t see the issue.
I also think she could have made videos saying what she'd like to see, or a video comparing old generation gameplay, etc. There were ways of making enough videos without the disingenuous nonsense so I get what you are saying. So what if her fans speculate, let them. I imagine her die-hard fans think she should do builds for every pack.There is a difference between knowing you have an nda and can’t say anything which I think the majority of her fans would understand, to actively saying she does not know anything about what’s coming up and innocent. She doesn’t have to make speculation videos, she chooses too.
(That is assuming she has been making speculation videos, I don’t watch her but my feelings would be the same regardless of who it was) I’m also fairly certain EA do not tell their creators what content they can or can’t make in between releases. Lil simsie may not have known every single detail but she would have known enough from looking at the build assets and knowing what type of build she was working with what the theme was.
I know they don't get paid based on how the pack sells since Jesse mentioned that with her kit, but I would suspect they get some sort of upfront payment for building in the pack. As sketchy as EA can be, I'm not sure I see them not paying the creators (especially since a lot of the creators are in with Twitch crowds that are big on demanding payment for your work).One thing I've always been curious about. Do they get paid for their work on these packs? So far, they've all talked about how excited they were and how they were honoured to be asked, but nothing about being paid. I'm assuming they absolutely have been because otherwise it's an awful lot of work to do for free, especially as EA is essentially making a profit from their work. But why not say something?
This. I saw someone on Twitter saying the same thing and it was SOOOO HARD not to comment like "doesn't matter, we'll all delete those shit builds and replace them with decent ones anywayI am just really annoyed at the fact that there are so many talented builders and EA always picks the same few. And if 1 of them has a very objectionable personality (lilsimsie) and the other (Deli) can't be bothered to pronounce things correctly that is all the more reason not to use them. I know EA likes fairly basic houses in their games so it makes sense why they don't use better builders I guess but I still say they could branch out and give smaller creators more of a shot.
I kinda feel like they should be able to say "guys I can't speculate bc I know waht the pack is and let's leave it there" - but I'd guess the team prob won't even let them say they knowI don’t think them telling lies previously about packs they know about is bad? Like someone said they’re probably under NDAs and may even be told to try throw people off the scent. As long as no one is getting harmed I don’t see the issue.
My assumption was that the kit itself was already planned and they went to her and asked her to collaborate on it as her aesthetic fit the theme , rather than asking her what pack she wanted to do from scratch. But to be fair I haven't watched any of her videos on it because she is far too annoyingI’m really surprised that Plumbella didn’t do a “British Kit” or whatever. She’s forever gone on about wanting kettles in the game and they could have padded it out with (decorative) hot water bottles, “Keep Calm and Carry On”-style posters, (decorative) tiered sandwich trays, a Union Jack bed, (decorative) red phone boxes etc.
Maybe she didn’t want to be responsible for adding kettles to the game if they had to be non-functional? Or maybe she didn’t feel a British pack was right so soon after Cottage Living?
It seems very out of character that she ended up compiling what looked like “The Sims 4: Furniture We Couldn’t Fit in High School Years” pack.
exactly what I was thinking. Why was she jumping on the "is the next pack generations" train, when she knew for sure what it was?So Lil Simsie has known about this pack since July? Then why did she make (what feels like) 10 videos saying “I really hope we’re getting generations” whilst saying it was speculation? Girl is so fake. I’m done.
I'm sure I saw someone say that they get paid for each build. Like a freelance designer type thing. Maybe James Deli and Kayla are cheap builders so they use them multiple timesOne thing I've always been curious about. Do they get paid for their work on these packs? So far, they've all talked about how excited they were and how they were honoured to be asked, but nothing about being paid.

I feel like a British kit with stuff like that would be much more suited to a London based creator over Jesse, a lot of that really doesn't seem like her vibe.I’m really surprised that Plumbella didn’t do a “British Kit” or whatever.
