I've watched this too many times.

I remember watching this every night before going to sleep in the summer of 2014 because I was so excited for the game to release... And looking at how far sims 4 has come makes me really emotional :')

"And they have REAL personalities" Yup,complex humans can be explained with 3 traits..hit the nail on the head EA

Mortimer is literally Edgar Allan Poe

This makes a simmer very happy. This video gave me butterflies! Happy Simming.

BEAUTIFUL, I'm excited! BUT.... I expect by Sims 10 that Create a Sim will be in real life and I can adjust my body like this. I could have special big butt days. It would be majestic.

them: in the sims 4, creating sims is easier and faster! me: *spends 4 hours in cas and is still unhappy with the sim*

2014: no 2015: not yet 2016: not quite yet 2017: getting there 2018: hmm not quite 2019: YES MUST PUT IN RECOMMENDATIONS

Why do people hate the Sims 4 graphics so much?! To be honest there is nothing wrong with them and I really like it more than the Sims 3 graphics. Am I the only one who likes the Sims 4 graphics?

That pot plant... :o

For some reason I’m here in 2018

please make different heights!!!!

I've watched this at least 20 times already

I hope you can open windows now in Sims 4 and jump rope, basketball , actually play a game of football. Walk side by side, allow children to pick up babies and have a Pre-Teen life stage. I also wish you could have a conversation while walking side by side

EA: Look now you have even more control over your Sim features! Me: Cool what else I can expect in this game? EA: Well you have to take care of your sims like in previous games Me: So is the same shit over again? EA: Yes Me: Give me 30 copies

I can spend hours on cas

I actually like the idea of only 3 traits this will make it a lot easier to make a good personality without having those annoying gaps

"Look at that strut. Check out his swag." Had me cracking up LOLOLOL

0:50 he knew what he was doing

I'm really happy to remember how excited we us when The Sims 4 released, *I can't wait for The Sims 5.*

And for those people arguing that they look cartoonish, I must say, they do look like that, but it's not like sims 2 graphics. This is way smoother and better than that, and I actually like the path they take for sims 4, not too realistic but not too surreal.

why are people bitching about the graphic? It is a game and it is supposed to look like a game...

4 years later... *SEASONS ARE COMING*

UKposts recommendations, you’re late. Five years have passed

ahhh I am so excited!!! Now that I am on my computer I can comment. The comparison side by side from the sims 3 to the sims 4 was such a difference. I am so excited for this game you have no idea. I wish it was out already. The CAS looks amazing! The makeup!!! and the winged eyeliner OMG!!! EEEP I also adore all of the base game outfits and hair styles we saw!!!

The game is getting better and better.. Can't wait to make my SimSelf too soon. Hope they could showcase making machinima with the game too. :)

I wish I could shape my own body that easily. Whoever is running my sim is a lazy bum with no sense of style.

2:23 THAT LAUGH BRO

Did anyone notice the the city in the background at the very end? Omg! The world looks beautiful! I am so excited I could shout😍

I serious have died a little inside. This is WHAT I have been waiting for. Gosh, no lie. Can autumn come a bit faster!?

I hate these people for making me want a game I can't afford! :'(

I've played this so much, I can't tell the difference between real people and sims

At first, I really didn't like how the sims looked, but now I love it!!!! I used to hate their hair, but now I think it is much better. Can't wait for the Sims 4!!!

The braids are to die for, and I'm certain designers actually DIED working themselves to make that one.

Everyone is too busy looking at what the Sims 4 doesn't have. It's a new game, not an expansion for The Sims 3. The Sims 4 may be taking away some key features that The Sims 3 included, but it's also adding a bunch way cooler things I would rather have. Sure it's not going to have Create a Style, Toddlers, Pools, Basements and some other things, but does that really matter. Without Create a Style, I bet the loading times will e way faster because the game doesn't need to load thousands I textures which we really don't use. The only thing pools were actually used for was pretty much drowning sims (face it). Since Toddlers are gone, I'd say that Babies and Children will be way more interactive and do a lot more things now. Again, stop looking at what it doesn't have, and look at what it does have.

After trying out the TS4 CAS demo and going back to TS3, I find using sliders really awkward to control and the sims weren't just as good looking there. You would probably need a shit ton of CC and custom skins, etc. to make TS3 sims well, decent and not looking like pudding-faced dolls.

OMFG it's here!!! My plumbob is too excited!

Nice job guys! You've really updated the Sims!

Why can't you adjust height god damn it!?!! The one thing I wanted, and you do everything but that! Lol.

2:55 He got that emote right.

I don't know about you guys but I'm just happy they have box braids. Carry on.

I don't know if I'm the only one here but I actually couldn't tell the difference between the sims and the real people for awhile... XD

I LITERALLY CAN'T WAIT.

0:40 where did these faces go?

The replay button is getting a lot of clicks from me.

I have very important exams next year. Can awesome stuff stop being released at inconvenient times?

This was in my recommended and it's a mad look back.

I've preordered sims 4 and I can't wait to play it!!

Why is there so much hate on the looks? The only reason they make it so cartoony is so everything runs faster and so there's a lot less lag than the Sims 3. And honestly at first I hated the look too, but after a while I've actually come to love it.

Something I Really Want Is That You Can See Inside Buildings. It Sucks On The Sims 3, When You Look Inside Places Like The School It Just Annoys Me. Im Not Sure If Its Just Me Or What But...Yeah. I Mean It Would Be Cool If You Saw Inside Schools And You Could See A Load Of Kids In Classes Doing Work And Blah But That Wont Happen, Too Much Work. #BuildingsHaveFailedMeAgain

The sims is my LIFE it's so addicting it's literally like, the best game I've ever played

Five years ago: How create a sim omg this will be so funny! Now: Oh, cc, wait i need more CC (Download 10GB of cc) Hmmm.. BETTER

I'm so excited you can create sims from all over the world! You could create some cool backstories too! #fangirl omgg

The new CAS is fantastic, but I'm not looking forward to all the re-hashed expansions. Can't wait for the eventual University, Pets, Seasons, Magic, etc. expansions...

i made my sim become best friends with Bella, get the Goth family to move in, got heavily romantic with her and Mortimer was so angry they divorced! {laughs evilly}

I cant wait for Sims 4 to come out!!!!

WOW! My gawwwddd!!! Ok i am super happy, super impressed and super excited! Making CAS videos is going to be so exciting now, it looks beautiful and i'm so pleased to see the hair is looking a lot better and can we just pause for the beauty of WINGED EYELINER!!! It's the simple things ;)

I can't be the only one who thinks this Bella Goth sim is drop dead gorgeous. O.o

Can't wait for this game the clothes look great modern love the details of the sims everything is easier even building a house. I'm kinda upset they don't have toddlers but its going to be worth buying thank u EA for continuing the Sims series and looking forward to buying this game especially the new moods and personality they have.

Can't wait for sims 4 to come out I love sims so much and this looks amazing some how EA always finds a way to make sims bigger and better!!

Wait...One of the sims they showed had multi-colored hair. Does that mean color wheel?

Guys, don't worry about the hair. People are gonna figure out how to do custom content for it soon enough after it comes out.

I’m watching this 8 years later! And I remember when I was in high school and they announced this I was shocked but sad too because I love sims 3! BUT NOW , I just play sims4 all the time and make amazing families!🤣

I am so excited for this, as a lifetime simmer this will be amazing. I'll spend ages on making my sims lol.

Looks great, but i'm really sad about no Create-A-Style in the base game :/

Oh my gosh! Looks amazing, can't wait to play it and do an LP on it!

i always get emotional about the sims

“She’s fit but she’s got curves” I’m DEAD

Jeez you would think the graphics would've improved from the third but I suppose not.

OMG YESS :D i have no words how exited i am :P

Im getting sims 4 tomorrow and im dead excited.

Bella Goth looks like superwoman aka Lilly

I really hope they don't teleport into their cars like in The Sims 3. And for kids who go to school there should be a more better system when it comes to school bussing. The game should randomly generate designated school bus stops of reasonable walking distance around a town so all kids have to walk to it because tbh making the bus stop at every house is unrealistic. And kids who live closer to the school would only walk. I know it might mean that some kids have to wake up a bit earlier and some but it makes more sense. And please for goodness sake EA, seperate the high school from the elementary school and please don't let them be rabbit holes.

Ok, I played the Sims game for HOURS back in the day. Totally addicted, now there is Sims 4, however after watching this clip I noticed the graphics haven't changed as much as I expected. I heard this edition will cost $80, I'm still waiting for a trailer that will make me say the cost would be worth it .. still waiting.

Nostalgia train! All aboard!

Sims 4 is first time I ever post something I love playing and being a simmer and being sim UKpostsr thank u for making this game it helps me in so many ways be happy when am sad I love it create my pets ones I lost and I can create my dad who died when I was four and have relationship with him thank u love sims so much idc what my haters 🙂 say

SO EXCITED FOR THIS! The Sims look amazing, build mode looks amazing, and the town is beautiful! Maxis, you've outdone yourself!

Stunning! Stunned! Just...I can't even fathom what I just witnessed! Absolutely impressed with the direction we are going with that! I am so, so, SO in love with the sims and how they look AND behave! Gracious, me! I don't think I can wait until the fall! LOL! To the Sims team: WONDERFUL job! I am so proud of you guys!

I remember seeing this for the first time in the summer a year or so ago. Amazing tool.

i'm so excited for sims 4 !it's looks so awesome!

If anyone hears a loud noise coming from the UK, it's just me exploding from excitement.

I love the Sims new look. Despite having a somewhat cartoony appearance, I think they look more real than the Sims from Sims 3. They seem much more alive and less plastic-looking.

sims had progressed so much great work !

I'm watching this while sims 4 is downloading to my computer! I can't wait omfg

OMG GUYS AND AT THE END THERE WERE PEOPLE WALKING AROUND ON THE SIDEWALK WHAT MEANS OPEN WORLD!!!

I hope theres more stages of growing up like baby,toddler,young child,child,pre teen then teen.. I think it would be better if it took longer to grow up :)

This is so perfect,, thank youuuu!

Mortimer and Bella will always be my otp

Seems like you can finally make asians

Yay! My sim can have a butt now! :D

Why is this in my recommendations 7 years later?

Madi rewatching this in 2021

Please release Create-A-Sim as a demo.

You forgot that Mortimer can't cook to save his life

I can't wait to get the game Friday! yay!

ouhh yeah! cant wait to get this..always love the sims series!

WOW! That was dead on with those look alikes! I have GOT to get this! I don't really have distinctive features although they come out very well together. I have never been able to really get ME. This time I know I can!

Love the Sims 2 better than the Sims 3. But I'm really excited for this one. I can't explain why I don't like the Sims 3. Sims 3 has better graphics than the Sims 2 but I rather play the Sims 2. But the Sims 4 looks amazing and would love to play it~

I'm getting the Sims4 for my birthday! I am excited to play it

0:35 so this was how the legend was created
