The Sims 3 is weirder than you remember 

Damn it Kevin stop getting sick

Hope you feel better

Kevin please can you play human fall flat thank you. Ps get well soon

First of all, theres nothing called too much of the sims and secondly, hope you feel better now!

Kevin you can never post too much sim content, we love it 😂❤

Reminds me how basically with my friends we’ve had a minecraft server off and on for the past several years and one friend made a whole drowned farm to grind trying to get a trident in the past. Then a couple weeks ago we had a friend join in that had not played in years, was getting a tour of the server and he saw his first drowned, killed it, and Immediately got a trident

Finding that unicorn in particular is extremely obnoxious and difficult. Getting to the unicorn in time to interact with it is even less likely. Being just randomly on the lot it spawns on, with no idea how rare it is, is a very Kevin thing to happen.

I think that Unicorn just knew Kevin is s princess and wanted to see for itself 😂

In my experience, unicorns and aliens only appear when you FIRST load up the game/world. I have very rarely seen them occur otherwise. Pretty much anytime I've freshly installed Seasons on a computer the following night an alien comes to visit and then never again.

@@lgbtyler6791 the aliens came like every 4-5 business days in all my saves on any computer I played on.. especially if I lived in a high-rise but there would just be the weird sparkles in the air above the appartment without the ufo and the alien roaming somewhere with no where to go

@卐-LAKEHUNTIST-卐 [Z] 🇷🇺 pssst self proclaimed

Picking Isla Paradiso is always going to lag, unless you delete all house boats and house boat lots before you start. It's pretty but the lag is insane there.

I read this comment right as he said that line, was creepy

Banished right into the shadow realm

RU-vid asked me to rate your comment 🤣 I said I loved it.

Why is it that laggy, I want to play it lag free 😢

@@levindropp6995 sorry to inform you, but the problem is the game itself He is so ungodly bad optimized that everything is constantly breaking down, specially with less powerful computers It's been a long time since I last played sims 3, but from what I saw in the comments, there are some mods who fix some stuff and help with the lag

@@YKOR0 thank you for your response and in fact I’m already trying to catch up the comment‘s suggestions here, ty bro

@@levindropp6995 Look up some of the guides for optimising the game. There are some fixes like some of the Nrass mods that help and LazyDuchess' smooth patch amongst others. The other thing to note is that Kevin inadvertently chose the buggiest world to play in which is notorious for lag. There is a replacement world that you can download that fixes some of the routing problems.

It’s really gross of EA to leave old classic titles such as the original Sims 1, 2, and 3 trilogy to basically become abandonware by not optimizing them for modern machines. You know they’re refusing to do this because they don’t want people to stop spending money on the inferior Sims 4. Really scummy business practice but typical for a company like EA.

I mean my game doesn't crash but it's only a little bit Laggy with the graphics up and I don't even have a gaming computer. Why is it so bad for others?

This man and other people need to know the Nraas mods, they really optimize the game

@@ladyhella7560 Sometimes that doesn't even help

There is a fixed version of the world on MTS that I still use when I want to play that world. Nraas mods and Crinrict's amazing guides have helped a ton too. I still play TS3 frequently.

@@cynister7384 the fixed version of the world fixes all issues

how do you copy/paste them into a new save?

@Willy on Wheels oh dear god a bot And yes I am just posting this so kevin can see this comment and avoid lag (or not if he wants to have bugs cause funny) Edit : ffs bot video was a josh rohel video my ears are bleeding

Yeah I was going to mention that as well, every time I play this world it’s so damn laggy

@@roeroethaboat use testingcheats to edit the sim in CAS and save a copy of them to the sim bin 👌 idk if it would still work if you saved the whole household in Manage World

I really hope Kevin sees this 😆 more sims 3 would be great, but no one deserves to suffer through that island 😭

Didnt he played sims 3 as jim pickens in the future? Or was that sims 4?

I like when it drips from the tip. If ya know what i'm sayin' ;)

@@zebimicio5204 iirc he’s said before that he rarely ever played the sims 3 in general other than the sims 3 future expansion for that one video

@@zebimicio5204 I think it was Jim's dad?? but it was the into the future expansion for the sims 3 yeah, he's played all the main pc games I think

@@zebimicio5204 Yes. The very first Jim Pickens series (actually there were 2 maybe a third IIRC) was Sims 3. Jim started out as a petty burglar and eventually saught to upend his boss' (Dennis Racket) life by stealing his wife, wealth, and eventually murdering him. Good times.

This AND he played sims future. Probably the two most buggy packs 😭🤚

that's actually halarious lol rip tho

Its sad that you lost the save file, but its hilarious!

don’t forget mateo pronounced matt-ee-oh lol

Adding him pronouncing Faiz as phase to that

Same

Purse... Eff... Uh... Knee! Persephone!

i just commented this lol

naaah, it's better to get some Nraas mods and the smooth patch. You can easily play with the entire games expansions on full, without issues with that stuff.

@@demivanderschaar5123 Nraas mods help but they in no way actually fix how broken 3 is.

@@EighmyLupin In my experience you don't need to block off gameplay or immersion elements in the sims 3 to fix the broken parts though. Yes, there are in-game fixes, but I've never in my 10 years of my experience have to disable a pack or turn off nor even delete households for it to run better. And 9 of those years have been without mods and just looking where in gameplay or save files/ cache stuff it could fix it. And believe me I for sure played Island Paradise for irl weeks before it was really that bad. (from what I've seen other people have it.) That's why I was so surprised when I played the sims 4 and found gameplay you just couldn't do because of bugs. Especially since 3 is known to be a bad case of bugging and lag. The sims 3 should be fine with some adjustments, but no need to hold back on all the exploration the entirety of the game should have. There are other solutions, in what I've seen. That's atleast more so what my point was.

he can keep the gamepack just don't use the world from it

Isla paradiso

PURSE A PHONE 🤣

MADDY OH

I thought I was the only one who noticed 😂

I was gonna say this 😂

The way I nearly screamed when I actually took a closer look at the names he was pronouncing wrong 😭

“The little freaks they are”😭😂

aTHE LITTLE FREAKS LMAO

Minespweeper coming up. We'll see!

Good god the amount of bots

@@grahmester6275 How do I know YOU aren't a bot and this isn't some sort of 500 IQ play?

@@elliotgillum Well I’m made of flesh so that’s a pretty big indicator that I am a human

You only play vanilla sims? Don't you ever run out of things to do? That's the problem I've been having with the Sims at least

@@Muffinatito it doesn't mean that i play base game only! i have many extensions i just dont use any mods (except to turn off those goddamn social clubs from university)

The mods to fix the problem are going to be a handful of Nraas mods specifically I believe the overwatch mod would be helpful(I'm pretty sure that's the mod that searchers for sims and pets that are stuck somewhere in the world and resets them)

@@Muffinatito I think you're confusing Sims 4 with 3. I've never felt like I had to play with mods to enjoy it. The only ones I have are cc items like clothing and hair and necessary mods to make the game run smoother like NRAAS mods. Sims 4 on the other hand...

I know this is an old(ish) comment, but I'd like to recommend smthing! there's a mod (tuning mod) on MTS for ts3 called _Reduce/Remove Lag caused by Houseboats,_ which made Isla Paradiso play sooo much better in my game! The tuning mod legit just sets the "enter helm disallow autonomous" to True (when False, NPCs can move houseboats, which causes signifigant lag). Player sims can still move houseboats!! the mod also changes the houseboat xml so that NPCs will not move ports (apparently even when they can't get to the helm, they still move ports, lol). also NRAAS' _Overwatch_ and _Error Trap_ are wonderful for my game

Oh my god, I didn't know that could happen! Now imma go start a protest against death lmao

It's so funny cause just 2 days before Kevin uploaded this video I tried that protest and I saw my sim die. I was like "wtf, I thought it wouldn't actually k!ll me unless I do it three times!" Luckily enough, the Reaper brought my sim back to life, warned me and left. And then I immediately started another protest against it lol

That is nothin. I built a house boat with a small toilet room and no showers. I knew that inventing stuff at the worktable was likely going to set my sim on fire. But I really did not have the space for a shower but only a free standing bath outdoor. Anyways. I knew that I was on a boat and was able to jump into the water. So ofc when I was set on fire I jumped into the water. My main sim STILL burning and screaming after landing in the water. XD I laugh so badly but got my sim so swim to shore and find a shower in time! Like wow. I reconfigured my boat to have a shower next to the workbench after that.

That's hilarious lol :P

This is the level of absurdity in the Sims 3 that I lived for when playing. The craziest thing I remember offhand right now, was playing on a lot with some horses; one of them bugged out and somehow got stuck in the house's kitchen when I was looking elsewhere for a minute (although I was playing on the fastest speed and think that contributed).

kevin do this

For me, even the patches and fixes for it through mods the world was just unplayable it froze every 5 seconds. I think it has to do with the million Sims running around going from boat to taxi to jetski to boat all over the island, which with the sims 3 already being insanely un stable and demanding makes it ten times worse so I think his best bet is just playing on a new world

@@senorMckenzie the patches/fixes from EA or the community?

@@VultureSkins the community patches

he just needs to delete the problematic households, with the Sims that get stuck in items and cause memory crashes. it'll work fine afterwards :) edit: there is a list online of the problematic households! it's mostly the ones that live on beach/water houses. you just have to delete the Sims living there, not the houses themselves. i did it on my save because it was literally unplayable, and it fixed things a LOT. it still was a bit laggy but not the full memory crashes (when animations still run but time freezes and you can't to anything, thats a memory crash because there is too many sims doing things at the same time)

Nice

@Willy on Wheels bot

Pfff... What the hell is this game? Didnt knew such a feature existed. Did it came with the whole supernatural pack? The way you told it kinda reminds me of Ruby Sparks, a somewhat less creppy version of it. It would make for a good story on its own as well.

@@pedrovallefin8406 it was in generations. Another cool thing about the sims 3 is that the packs were always huge. Both potions and imaginary friends came with this one pack, along with school clubs, proms, and even some stuff for the elders to do

I hated the Imaginat Friends. They got in the way, became your kid's best friend really quickly if you didn't keep an eye on them, and you couldn't sell or delete the dolls. Couldn't even put them in a locked room because they teleported.

I mean for some reason it's the first option when picking a world I believe, he may have just gone with it to get started quicker

same! it didn’t age that well and i love it

@@peewee139 what are you talking about the Sims 3 aged like a fine cheese

This game is a perfect time capsule to late 2000's and early 2010's. The Sims 4 failed to achive this by bloating the game with filler expansions.

@@kevinthefabulous1118 im not talking about the game im talking about the aesthetic. but if you are too then lol

@@peewee139 oh I mean everything about it. I adore it. The aesthetic is absolutely god awful and horrid but it only makes it better, sort of like the mold on camembert.

What were the results 😂

@@Bananachan289 to be expected: a whole lineage of Sims with bizarre facial features like Help Me. The game eventually grew too big for my computer to run, but man I miss that mess.

idk I feel like it compliments his personality perfectly

@@MyNameHere101 yeah but the game lagging so hard will make him impatient and not want to play tbh it can get pretty unplayable in this game (and saves easily corrupt too if there aren't mods to clean it out which is very frustrating)

@@Queerlien Yeah that's true. A good first experience means he'll keep coming back, and there's a lot of potential for him here.

@@Queerlien It's hilarious to me that like 1/3 of the Sims modding community is just people fixing the game

@@MyNameHere101 Honestly and that goes for all the games. The least broken one is probably the first game, but it's not nearly as complicated as the later ones. It's a shame EA leaves them in the state they do, but I am so grateful we have such amazing communities that fix them.

yeah i was abt to comment abt this too, isla paradiso is the worst map in the game for lag sadly... also for anyone reading this (kevin included!) the lag fixes i use which work really well are nraas error trap and overwatch mods, as well as the smooth patch by lazy duchess x

@Willy on Wheels bot

The Sims 3 Smooth Patch mod 1.2.1 This mod makes the game’s logic threads run faster, speeding up loading of Buy/Build and CASt, smoother UI elements, smoother CAS. Can also speed up live mode and loading, it’s essentially a general improvement.

I love reading about everyone’s wacky sims experiences 😂

@@kayteelol1260 I also enjoyed locking my kids in there basement and rping the worst possible childhoods so watching them get tmarried and raise their kids with happy childhoods would be more satisfying

@@clumsie5078 I had the sims bustin out on PS2 and I would kill my sims by making them jump off the high dive without a pool underneath 😂

@@kayteelol1260 lmao what's with young simmers and being unnecessarily brutal 😭

@@clumsie5078 oh I wish I knew. I’m 27 now and still get such joy out of torturing my poor sims 😂😂

The bots just get weirder and weirder. Don't forget to report both the bot comments and the bot channels for spam and don't reply/interact with them at all. Most of all, do not click random links online.

Sorry to hear about you dog, it's always difficult to lose a pet. Make sure to take care of yourself through this difficult time, whether through watching your favorite shows or eating your favorite snacks, you deserve it!

@@poypleyoshi Thank you for your kind words :)

I’m so sorry to hear about your dog love. It’s the same as losing a family member. May I ask what your dogs name is? 🥺

@@v0miiitt Her name was Daisy! She was an energetic, brindle pitbull/boxer mix :)

I hope things get better. Make sure to take care of yourself by doing things you enjoy and eating some your favorite snacks if possible, you deserve it!

Take care of yourself 💕

Kevin is a gift to us all really. He’s my emotional support RU-vidr lol

Lol

The second time I played the sims 3 glitched out and never let me play again

he did that already!

@@sunny-lm2np it's the absurdity of it. No, rape isn't funny, but why does he use his powers to make other people kiss him, when he doesn't actually want to be kissed by them? It doesn't make sense and that's what makes this situation absurd and funny. Also, it's not a situation that can be recreated irl, since magic isn't real, so calm down.
