I find it so crazy how TS4 is so bad at making trendy/in style clothes. They basically missed the whole cycle of the high rise pants. Low rise pants are already kind of coming back in style and it feels like it was quite recently that we started getting pants that don't show our sims' butt crack.

I remember being blown away by the cas demo

I remember playing the demo for a couple days, then giving in and going to the store with my dad later. I'll tell you what though, these selection of early base game clothes definitely makes it noticeable how obsessed they are with neons. Neon magenta, neon blue, neon green EVERYWHERE, it was not cool even in 2014, I promise. It took them this many years and collabs to realize people want neutrals.

I hand painted the Sims 4 original plumbob and it took me 4+ hours. I used acrylics and blended every green I had together to get the effect. Not to brag, but it's perfect. THEN THEY CHANGED IT 😭

„We only had 18 skintones“ Well, for me who skipped TS3 and came straight from sims 2 (with 4 Skintones) this was incredible 😅.

The sweater dress is a mood and I would still wear it nowadays. I've always been a fan of it.

i just remember playing for HOURS in the demo before my grandma finally bought me the full game after it was out for a year. she said it was sad i only played like half the game😭💀

I do want to clarify that in the Sims 3 you could still go into advanced mode for editing facial features. Just that all the options were controlled by sliders. The options were still there.

57 add-ons later and we don't even have twice as many traits as we did in the cas demo 💀

I remember going to Gamescom in Germany and standing in line to play the sims 4 demo. A woman came up to me and asked me if I wanted to partake in a quiz and ofc I said yes immediately. She asked me what the name of the "thing above sims heads is" ... i immediately answered "plumbob" and my price was skipping the waiting line 😀that was so awesome. At least 1+ hr saved. And I got to play the demo which was so amazing! 😀 I see it in my origin libraby all the time but never thought of revisiting it. What an amazing idea kayla ! 🙂

This video reminds me how upset I was with The Sims 4 CAS when I just started playing it sometime after launch. There were no curly hairstyles that in-between slightly wavy and fully dense/afro curls, so no way to get hair like mine or in general the type of curly hair so common where I come from. Like my ethnicity did not exist as all in the game lol

God you pulled that Sweater Dress out ( 7:18 ) and I was transported back to Lifesimmer's OG sims 4 lets play, I think the sims name was Candace Monet and she wore that. And then I put every sim in that for a year because it was the cutest thing we had in CAS

I remember when i first got the game like 5 years ago, I thought CAS was amazing, but than I discovered cc, they updated the gendering system of ts4, they discovered what subtle was, and they updated hair colors and skin tones. So looking back i really realize how incredibly lackluster the old CAS really was.

8:44 kayla: "i don't think i've ever given a sim these gloves" stanley humphrey: am i a joke to you 😭

I kinda wish there would be more walk options tho Its kinda fun and would give the sims more personality too

Cas was groundbreaking! As a player that experienced the game develop from sims 1 to this it was HUGE improvement! Of course I didn’t have eyes to notice any flaws

The dress and legging combo is what a few of my female cousins wore for Christmas Eve one year. They including knee-high and thigh-high boots along with a wide belt to complete the look.

I was so impressed with this demo back in the day, then was so disappointed with the game on release. so, I continued playing sims 3 until literally June 2021 🤣

There are actually two wedding clothes (full body outfit) in Sims 3, one with, and one without necklace. I've always used that one when my female sim was about to get married

the other day i went back and watched one of the first James Turner formerlyknownasthesimsupply The Sims 4 videos and boy the build mode was TRAGIC, and even then, i was too busy being in awe at how practical all the build functions were.....how naive i was

I like how the Erratic trait was called Insane and that straitjacket icon was changed not that long ago... 😂

I remember watching UKpostsrs playing Sims 4 and I was obsessed but my family is poor so this demo was my life

I have dim memories of James doing a throwback to the original release version of the game, maybe for the 5th anniversary or something?

This will be so different. Remember no ladders and no auto window door placement in walls etc

Dude that sweater dress/leggings/ boots combo was THE MOMENT

I remember being obsessed with the demo when I was younger. I played it for hours before I got the game.

As I was driving, today, I locked eyes with my own stuffed Snap cat, on the dash, and realized my partner had turned him around to mess with me. His face told me a story of hope, perseverance and melancholy. I, then, turned him back around to get back to the view of cat cheeks I was used to. What a day.

I loved the CAS Demo so much but continued to play Sims 2 until toddlers came out in 2017. It's fun to look back and see how much has changed!

Even with only having sliders there was still a lot of functionality with TS3 CAS. And that color wheel fixed a multitude of sins 😆

i remember searching EVERYWHRE for this game back when it was first released bc it's an illegal game where i'm from. i was finally able to get it from an underground dvd shop and installed it on my fat computer only to be disappointed by the lack of everything compared to the sims 3 and deleting the game

I remember renting it for the 360 when I went to visit my sister and brother-in-law, and was in awe. Now I feel like it was a dream and didn't happen. That being said, my nephew turned 8 just a couple of weeks ago, so he and TS4 are the same age....

I love how sims is different for us all in ways. The hair option you said you've never used is one that's most nostalgic for me.

This is so cool!! Ive been rewatching old James Turner videos and its soooo wierd seeing how much the game changed since then! Like seeing reactions of all the base game added features!

i always breeded my sims and made "mansions" (simply just a huge house with way to mutch furniture)

i started playing a little later but i was a strict base game only player until 2020, and i was so obsessed with the sweater dress too

I was also so obsessed with the sweater dress althoughI I added the galaxy leggings with it 😭😭

Hope you're having a great day simsie!

THE CAS DEMO OH MY GOD. THIS WAS MY EVERYTHING.

Didn´t know about this, but I still remember the strugel of creating a Sim in the first Sims Game and how many options there where in the sims 2, played that probably the most.

i loved the hair eliza pancakes has. i used it so often, that one and the longest one with curls at the end

I’ve been waiting for this one 😻

You are such a good UKposts thanks for giving us a reason not to be bored

Me and Stanley enjoyed this video! I got mine in today- perfect timing to finally sit down and watch todays videoN

A nostalgia video was very cathartic today. Thank you simsie

i was in awe of this demo and the base game once it came out. such simpler times 🥺

I have never seen the sweater dress, omg that IS cute !! Guess I’m gonna use that all the time now haha

Love your vids keep up the good work ❤️

Oh my god, the goddamn demo version. I remember when my sister made a very, very important announcement at the dinner table one night. (She was OBSESSED with the sims 3. She has played it since like 2011). And she had to legit beg my dad to let her get it. I sat on a dining chair in the living room, next to her, and watched her play. God the nostalgia 😭

i still have the demo too, it was so fun (though i only made a couple sims). i miss intros tbh!

I believe it was James Turner's (formerly known as The Sim Supply) channel where I saw a video about how to set TS4 back to the original base game. Watching it reminded me why I almost broke the game constantly with the amount of mods I downloaded.

I was obsessed with the cas demo. Now I download as many extra sliders as I can

I was just think about the create a sim demo when you released your last video. I remember the day this came out omg.

I started playing just after outdoor retreat came out. The old menu music is so nostalgic 🎶

Omg yes the demo I remember I was so excited

Kayla I gotta say I love your brows. They’re so perfect! Also those freckles are poppin 😊

I was hoping for a very loooong time that you’d play the first version of the sims 4!!! I’M SO HAPPY !!!!!

Omg I remember when sims 4 first came out, I was in elementary school and I remember listening to music as I would play. Not much has changed from that time except now I play on console and I'm a senior in high school... How the time flies..

I love looking at how much everything has changed

Bro I was in LOVE with the CAS demo I was literally so excited to download it for free

I loved this I was too poor at the time for the actual game so this was so fun to me I used to play it occasionally up until I finally got to

Ironically that multi color fishtail braid is what my NSB minty girl started with. I wasn't using cc at the time and I didn't like the pure mint hair very much. Fun to go back!

Omg the logos😭😭 Such nostalgia

I love your videos. I’ve been watching them to practice my listening skills in English.

I remember playing the demo and it was so fun

Happy birthday momma simsie!! 💜

Oh my gosh I used to use that sweater dress on my sims ALL the time

I loved that sweater dress! I’d deffo wear that IRL!

I remember when the base game and CAS demo were released, you could upload the sims to the gallery, I maybe misremembering, but I do still have some old CAS demo sims up on my gallery.

On a similar note (Not quite the CAS Demo but still quite old) It blows my mind that Newcrest wasn't in the base game when it came out (It was added in patch 20) and that's the area I normally build in (Would do more Forgotten Hollow stuff but I hate the Welcome Wagons which were added in the same patch as Newcrest)

You should do what you said about installing the game with no wifi! I’m pretty sure James Turner did that a couple years ago and it worked

The sims 3 definitely comes with wedding dresses in base game? You can make anything white!

As someone who is mainly into CAS and not building in the Sims, it took me months to realize there weren't pools. But within a week I was frustrated at the lack of CAS options lol

I’d love a reference point of how many hours in actual Sims 4 Simsie has lol

it's already so nostalgic :o

I still have this in my Origin library! I never deleted it lol

I was so excited when it came out and wanted so bad for a laptop because of it.

You know how townie Sims feel iconic and necessary for every save file? That's how I feel about the Sims I made with the cas demo. I still add them to every save. Maybe its just me, but I enjoyed the game more when it was a little simpler (not cas necessarily but gameplay).the more they've added, the less it all works especially the past couple years.

7:26 omg i always did the exact same thing lol

I remember making a family when it first came out but there was like nothing to do so i left it for three years until there were more packs out

to say alot more trait options is being pretty generous

Try changing the files around between sims vas demo and 4

I remember being able to add CC to the CAS demo too lol

it took me a few years to get the sims 4 after it came out cause i didnt feel like not having pets but i had the cas demo and it BLEW my mind. then cats and dogs came out and i still waited cause i didnt care if i didnt have horses 😂

I still have access to the first sim I created in Sims 4 because I loaded her up to the gallery. I did it because I lost my first sim for Sims 3 to a computer crash, and missed her because I had used her as my picture for the Sims 3 online profile/gallery. I ended up quitting Sims 4 a few months after it's release. All of my Sims families began aging in my library and I couldn't figure out how to start a new save. The pickings for a husband were limited too and I ended up having a child with Don Lothario. I don't remember why, but I had to download the Goth family from the gallery. I was SO MAD that the library changed because Mortimer died and the family had aged. At that time I didn't know how to fix the family.

OMG YOU MADE ME REALIZE IVE BEEN PLAYING TS4 FOR ABOUT 7 YEARS!!!

i'm pretty sure the english simmer did a video a year or two ago where she did exactly what you said and installed the game using a disc without wifi and played the game as it was released. i would love to see you do that

The sweater dress I LOVE I want it in real life lmao! I made my simself wear it haha.

I remember playing around with it and I hated it! I only got the sims 4 last year! Now I'm obsessed 😍

I had so many of those clothes irl in the early 2010s (when I was in middle school) 😂 Also, I have 2 complaints about the original hair options: 1) there was no long curly hair options until fairly recently, like I played The Sims 4 a little bit in 2020 and only really got into it this year and that hair must've been added since then; I remember making my simself back in 2020 and the only 2 curly (but not coily) hairs were the long one that looks like it was curled with a really big curling rod and... a beehive?!? 2) many - if not most - of those hairs look really sharp lol

i had such a good time playing the cas demo at thirteen years old 😭😭

OMG I HAD AN OBSESSION OVEE THAT SWEATER DRESS TOO LMAO

i literally used the cas demo for all of 2015 until christmas/janurary 2016 time i got the full game 😭 its why im pretty decent at cas lmao

I got the Sims 4 the day it released and I thought it looked so good back then for some reason Tbf I was 7 or 8

I played with the CAS demo, but I refused to actually buy the game itself until they added toddlers to it. Stuck with that too- I didn't buy the game for years and I've never felt like I was solid on the base or the earlier expansion packs because I got them all at one time.😅

the new skin tones is honestly so legendary. im so glad for all the options each day

James Turner has a video playing the first version of the sims from a few years back!

this is the lilsimie video that came out when queen Elizabeth died

Happy birthday to ur mom kayla! I always remember it cuz we have the same birthday lol

I wish sims added the same slider for the hair colours I could make the blonde look so good

Can you also find a way to look at the base game at launch?
