I remember I found your channel during my depression period. Looking at your old building makes me feel nostalgic but also happy as I can see both of us have come far away from where we used to be. Things do get better. Hopefully I will feel the same way in the future when I go back to your present videos.
I’ve wanted to see sims builders do this for so long. Tbh not just with old “bad” builds, but with builds that didn’t have all the features we have now too. Like how would you do it differently if you had terrain tools or platforms or ladders or configurable stairs or insert new pack here? Would love to see more
To be fair, we didn't have much detail in game in 2015 so adding a shit-tonne of shelfs as window details was quite innovative. That being said, the fact you kept saying about your audacity and looked visibly offended by the garden had me howling! Amazing job as usual 👏
This absolutely should be a regular or semi-regular series, mum! It’s always fun for me to see how people’s tastes and skills have changed over time! ❤️✨
i always love seeing you use that tile from courtyard oasis, it's stunning! slowly but surely being convinced to buy that kit for myself 😳 definitely looking forward to more of these reno videos! 🤎
I don't comment much, simply bc I stopped playing the sims 4 and am now completely focusing on Minecraft and you're literally the only sims RU-vid-r I still happily watch but I gotta say that I really enjoyed the renovation of the house, you should definitely do more of these!
This build looks beautiful! I liked some of it before, but after, just wow 😍! The Tudor style is one of my favs and you’ve combined it with a more modern aesthetic and I love it! Really hope you do more of these videos! I also don’t know how to feel about the new Matilda movie musical but also very excited cause Emma Thompson is incredible!
Do more renovations please~! I never build from scratch myself and renovations of existing builds are all I do, so this feels like my own process, and of course always so much to learn from you!
My weekend (or my Saturday at least) was pretty busy. My sworfighting group organized our own medieval festival in a castle. It was awfully hot, but everything else went according to plan, lots of spectators came and there's a chance we'll get to repeat it next year.
I would love to see more of these! I always have a hard time trying to renovate anything and just end up building something new. This is a PSA to not underestimate renovating, it really is a skill of its own!
3 minutes in and I'm already crying. I would watch an hour long montage of you critiquing a ton of old builds. Don't even need the reno, as lovely as they always are.
Love the renovation! I would also love to see more of these. I would LOVE if you would renovate the Wisteria House (that was my first viewing of your Let's Builds, and have been hooked ever since). That house was amazing, but we have so much more to use now in the game that I think you would lift that to a higher level today!
I absolutely love this realistic style as opposed to the cartoony sims 4 style. I try to achieve this with my builds and your builds give me alot of helpful tips and inspiration to achieve this! Much love! Lonely x
Loved this video. We all have old builds that are utterly terrible now because of grown experience. I would love to see more videos like this. Thanks, Aden!
I laughed so hard with you roasting your build that I almost choked hahahaha I need to see you doing this more! The renovations looks fantastic. Very you indeed!
I love the updated version of this build. I’ve never used the dark wood swatch of those Strangerville items because I normally use them on colorful Victorian builds. I would never think to use them on a Tudor home but they look stunning. Especially in the main bedroom I’d love to see more videos like this. I’d love to see you update your dream home build
OMG .. When a Devon video start with: ...'' By show me off ....I really mean TEAR ME, LITERALLY, TEAR ME A NEW ASSHOLE'' and I was DEAD. THANK YOU FOR BEEN YOU MY LOVE 😜😝😝🤘don't need to say that the VID is GREAT and also that I am still Laughing my head off 💜😝💜
I would love more of these videos! I love renovating my own old builds and it's so interesting to see how other people's builds have evolved with new game content/more experience/changing tastes
I love everything you do. I also found the Modern Church you did some time ago, and the building is amazing. I updated it with new My Wedding Day pack and maybe a mod or two but, I can't thank you enough for that beautiful building.
It is fun to see how far you've grown since you're original build. 👍💓 I would love to see more remodels, especially some of your smaller lots. I have an older PC and have a tough time running large homes. Thank you so much for this video! 🤗🍷🤗
Awh! The Matilda movie, what a special part of my childhood! 💜 The musical is its own adaptation of the book, so it'll have some differences from the movie, but I've adored the album for a while so I have high hopes. I absolutely loved this video, I would definitely watch more videos like this! But all your content is delightful, so you do what you like best!
Uhhh I love this build! It’s so beautiful!! And gosh yes Matilda is the best, one of my favorite movies, a movie I never get tired of watching it. I watch it at least once a week 😆
Ah I’ve been waiting for this video for forever lol and it was so worth it! This renovation is amazing! And another renovation video like this would be so lovely~ can’t wait to see more videos like this~
Life has been hectic lately and I havent been able to watch many of your vids or see live streams. I miss your face I loved this video and how you reacted to this build was in hysterics watching. Hope to come to a stream soon. love ya Aden
those builds in the first few seconds already have me screaming 😂😭 you were doing with columns what you now do with corbels lol 3:35 omg that rooftop bush cannot possibly be for real 🤣🤣 5:26 this cleanup section positively cured my depression. I can feel my blood pressure returning to normal levels already. 6:40 a semi-industrial modern kitchen? in a Devon Bumpkin build?? Color me shocked babes 8:06 I mean when you said Stranger Things my brain started playing the X-Files theme song so I guess we’re both confused 16:36 the momentary look of panic lmao 19:00 ohhh I like this way better, this color palette is so much easier on my brain 😇 22:05 weirdly I never saw the movie as a child but omg I loved the book 🥺 the illustrations!!! 26:15 omg!! wait that’s going to be so fun I’m excited 🤩 this house turned out ACTUALLY gorgeous. In the beginning she was giving “interior design by Bella Goth” but now she’s stylish, secure, and standing on her own however many feet! 🥳 something about the chaos of the original facade really spoke to me, because I love mess, but there’s no denying this is way better. also!! I know I haven’t been lurking at streams or loitering in the comments much lately (tldw: I’m on new meds and was unhinged for a couple weeks lmfao) but, while I am not quite back to true form, I am approaching true form at a terrifying pace 😎 Wellbutrin is lit yall! 🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍
I really enjoyed this and look forward to seeing more renovations as you mentioned. Funny you should say that your next vlog would be in Plymouth - In my country I was born in a small city called New Plymouth! So I'm looking forward to when you are able to do that vlog.
One of the first builds of yours I ever saw was the San Myshuno university type building - I absolutely love it. I'd be interested to see what you would do with that now.
I am VERY excited for the Matilda musical movie. I saw the musical on Broadway and loved it. The musical definitely has a different vibe than the original movie, which I also have a special place in my heart. From what I have seen from the trailer they released last week... it looks very promising. If anything I think it will be fun.
Your builds are amazing as always! I agree with everyone before me that we would love to see you doing this type of Design Me Devon with your old builds. This would also make for a great “shell challenge” type thing except it’s not a blank shell but more of a renovation/update. So an Update Me Devon (🤷🏻♀️ not sure if any of that made sense but if it did, yay!)
Hi aden. Been mentally unwell so not watched for nearly 6 months. Just caught up on everything n wanted to say hi. Still the biggest fan ever I just needed time I guess. Watching you're videos has made me smile so much. I missed you. Hope you are well 🙂🥰 Xxx
I always presumed that you were an interior decorator or an architect bc I always found your building super realistic, with a lot of "IRL" details. No offense, you just blew this image I've got of you up… Still glad you don't share those kinds of buildings with us anymore! K' thanks byyyye!!!
You did an amazing job! You are absolutely right, Matilda is an amazing film. Watched the musical/remake thingy-ma-bobby and it wasn't my cup of tea. I adore Emma Thompson but even she didn't save it imo >.
Hi! I hope you are doing great. Looking at this build you did it justice, till you said kids room add some color.. what color? Green that you used in the living room. I actually thought, oh wow he's going to use a different color than he usually does. I love ya Aden❤👏, hugs to Blue and regards to Tom.
Hey Aden! Love what you did with this. I just came back from a road trip (8 U.S. states and 5 National Parks in 9 days!) and was off RU-vid. When I came back on today to catch up, I noticed the Notification Bell on your channel isn't working! Says your channel is for... children? (Umm... 🙈) Not sure if you knew about this already or not. Just wanted to make sure your die-hards are getting their notifications 😉
I love doing a Reno and putting it up on the gallery with credit to the original, it’s so fun to me and I’m shit at building a house myself lol 😂 btw this house turned out gorgeous as usual ☺️🥰 also Happy Pride Month everyone! 🏳️🌈🇺🇸🎉💖
Love the new concept! I hope this will be a new "series" on your channel. also... I don't know if you really said this in one of your video's or that I dreamt it for some reason... but didn't you want to start playing Planet zoo? I only play Sims and Planet zoo myself (and I play the absolute tits out of it) but would love to see your building style in planet zoo! I always go through fases of a few month playing either planet zoo or the sims, but I would most def binge your planet zoo videos! It is a skill though, to switch between the two. the way you controle the camera and shortcuts and stuff is almost the complete opposite of each other. :) aaaaaaaaanyway loved the vid and greetings from the Netherlands
