I think it’s funny how James was so worried about how they got the workout equipment into the basement but not about how they got the organ to the top of the turret 😅

@DoveJS

Жыл бұрын

Most people don't own a pipe organ or a piano so it's probably easier to imagine moving the workout stuff than the instrument. Also, the turret has a big open window, I think, so theoretically it could maybe be lifted even if that's inadvisable too lol.

Technically, adding vampire and/or werewolf stuff is worse if you look at the lore. Then there's the question of electronics which is less magical than Jedi stuff. I feel like Batuu is on the same level as Cats and Dogs if you consider it a random hobby/interest lol.

Column’s house reached its full potential and was worth the wait. The outside is interesting, the Victorian castle vibe fits both the world and the owners. The interior is also fitting their personalities-witchy with a few surprises thrown in. Glad Ticket got his items and it’s too funny that even after 3 years, it’s STILL winter in Glimmerbrook!

Finally!! She gets a much deserves house renovation and now the grandbabies would come to visit and maybe she will stay home more ☺

I love seeing this completed, now I would love for maybe a storyline with Addison given their aspiration has them being mischievous and needing to sneak out etc. Perhaps despite repeated discussions and trying to work things out as a family, Reginald decides that Addison needs to take a break from the typical teen areas and hangouts, and sends them to spend time with their grandmother. I mean what kind of mischief could a non magic user discover in this space right...? 😉

Just need to finish the eco lifestyle and snowy escape houses next. 😆 Also, the gym and sauna make sense because they would have to stay in shape in case of a physical fight with another occults and being a spellcaster would be hard on the body so somewhere to rest and recharge would be nice.

It had been cool if the sauna had a little chimney, as I also think it fits. Reminds me of how the Finns made the Americans and soviet sign a peace treaty as I think Column would do the same..!

Nice renovation! 😍 Would love to see Reginald and the family visit grandma in his LP 🎉🎉

Yay!! You finished Colomn's witch castle! It looks homey and comforting. And do like the sauna in the room, remember, the sisters did grew up in the islands and it gets cold at where they are now. 😉 great job James! 😄

I squealed with joy when I saw the thumbnail! Thank you so much for giving Column a lovely home!

Even though James doesn't record himself while building these, I can still hear "AHH BATUU!" off-camera whenever a Batuu object is in the frame.

yay!! well done 🎉 now hopefully we’ll get to see Addison and Breanne visiting grandma?

That would actually be nice to the Sims visiting family!

As a Finn I love sauna! I would though connect the sauna and the bathroom next to it, flip the sauna 90 degrees and turn bathroom into a shower area and a little dressing area. Toilet in it's own little room. Little fridge in the dressing room for cold drinks. That would be perfect. Otherwise, amazing house!

I'm doing this when I download this house! Thanks for the great idea 🥰

The renovation we've all been waiting for 🙌

Haha, this is perfect timing! I just watched the final episode of Rags to Witches 12 hours ago - with all the comments of "where is the promised renovation video?!" 😆 And there it is! Gotta watch it now. Byeeee!

I DID MY WAITING TWELVE YEARS OF IT *IN AZKABAN!!!!!!!!!!*

Finally finishes the renovation YEARS later and goes into live mode.. And it is STILL winter! 😂❄️ And yeees, I know the snow finally disappeared in the last episode, but still... I thought it was funny! 😂

The floating light was the most magical part of the whole build

I think without the other packs this wouldn’t have been able to be completed and still give that same feel for the end result! I’m glad it’s finally finished and thank you for revisiting it!

I hope the front door is set to the actual front door and not the greenhouse this time 🤣

AHHHHHHHHHHH This is amazing, felt like an early Christmas gift. Thanks for making our wishes come true! (magic pun intended)

This makes me so happy! I’m been going through and binge watching all your old let’s plays and I really liked the realm of magic one, so I’m glad this house is finally getting some love

I was thinking about the school teacher in the HSY LP and you could just give him floral bouquets of death flower scented roses or something and let him age up rapidly. Three should do it.

Keep the sauna but hang a bunch of herbs for "cleansing before rituals"! 😂❤️ Love playing spellcasters, this is giving me all the inspiration for the next time I get to sit down and play.

One of my favourite pieces of Bigwallet lore is that evil witch Column became the most loving and involved of all the Bigwallet parents.

The sauna room could become the doggy bedroom!! Make a nice and spooky space for the familiar 🐶

Finally! 😊 Next you could finish the bigwallet graveyard

Omg I thought you forgot to do this reno, but I’m so surprised. I loved this let’s play so much, and this is the perfect way to end this chapter! It looks great! 🧙‍♀️❤

Ahhhh I'm so glad you finished it! The house looks so goooood! Plus so much to do; I love all the activities you added, including the sauna! I'm gonna agree with everyone suggesting at least a visit to Grandma Column's house by the grandbabies even if it isn't an overnight stay! I wish the Sims made it easier to ask if you can spend the night... You can invite other Sims to stay but I don't think you can ask to sleep there, so Column would have to ask them and I'm not certain you can ask kids/teens because I believe it's a romantic interaction. I've only ever used it after a Sim date myself! We need a little Sim Science on this. Regardless, a day trip vacation would be nice! OR have a proper vacation... ooooh! Demolish the starter home, add a rental there, and maybe Addison could become a spellcaster while they're visiting?! 😆

The spiral stairwell going up is a very nice touch

I think a witch absolutely needs a sauna. :D Beautiful makeover all around. I especially like the gardening stuff and the landscaping.

I just got done watching the Realm of Magic let's play and am going through the Dream Home Decorator series and I was wondering if you were going to finish it 😂

“OMG. He did it!!!” First words to come out my mouth when I read the title. Mind you, I’m at work right now😹😹😹

Thanks James, for reminding me that I needed to join your subreddit! I completely forgot 😅 Also, we have around 4,000 members to go

I love how James is always so considerate during builds and puts bathrooms in convenient locations. Then half the time in his let's plays he can't be bothered and makes his sims pee themselves rather than stop whatever activity he's doing!

no way, was realm of magic 3 years ago??

Column deserves it after everything she's been through, trying to renovate the house and raise Reg as a single mom. I'll bet Addi and Breanne would love visiting her house. They could hang out in Glimmerbrook and meet some of the local kids/teens.

Ugh what a beauty 😍so magical 🪄I’m going move my sim self’s vampire family in here. They’re rich AF they can afford it and currently they are in a temp house because I couldn’t figure out where to fit the entire family with the grandkids. This is perfect.

I love love love this house. It came out so well! The placement of the organ reminds me of an organ loft in a church. The sound would probably echo down the stairwell getting a bit discordant on the way. Wonderful!

I found James during the start of that series LP. Saying I'm obsessed now is an understatement. Thank you for the LPs series James, you truly bring joy and entertainment into my life.

Realm of Magic unfortunately was an underwhelming pack when it comes to gameplay but I LOVE the build/buy stuff. The occult packs really do it for me. Actually, I don't like the objects of the pack all that much but the atmosphere that they create!

I wouldn't complain about the sauna, but since you've asked for other ideas here's one: you could make it a broom storage, all covered in spiders web, maybe with one or two destroyed paintings (or turned backwards, to the wall) and with some other messy clutter, but with wardrobe from get together in it, so it could be like a total hide place for sims to cry/woohoo

To me, a sauna makes perfect sense in this house. It totally seems like something Plantain would suggest. I’ll never forget the couple of times James remembered to check in on her during the Let’s Play, for her to just be playing outside, making snow angels & the other time she was just happily sat on her bed & then did a fart followed by a little chuckle. James’s reaction to the last one was priceless, I rewound several times 😂

OMG YESSSSS!!!! Finally. I saw the thumnail and couldn't even wait till the end of my shift. After all this time... The result didn't disappoint, it looks amazing James!!!

Yaaaay column and plantain finally getting a furnished house! :D

Me, thinking to myself while watching: wasn't there a toddler in this house..? Also me couple of seconds later: ah yes, it was Reginald.

Omg yes, I've been hoping you'd finally finish this house. Love it, I always tend to go more modern with my houses so I love seeing something more gothic. Perfect for this family.

I have never clicked a video this quick from the small thumbnail in my notification bar 😂❤

The sauna is how they sweat out any potion fumes

OMG the day has finally come!!

Omg yayyy! Wishes do come true!!!!! Literally have been wanting this house to be put on the gallery since dream home decorator!!

Next we need the Bigwallet graveyard to be finished

James' design aesthetic, both build and furnishing, is incredibly similar to mine. It's hard to describe. Attention to detail is so important to me- color schemes, rooms that don't have too much empty unused spaces! I have downloaded nearly all of his builds😂 one of my favorite builders

YAAAAAY!!! I'm sooooo excited to watch this! Thank you James for reading comments and taking suggestions seriously

Finally! Ticket has a food bowl! I've only been asking for months. I'm so happy! At least he gets some comfort for his old age.

James talking about fitting things down the stairs... My brain: PIVOT!!

The makeover it deserves!

This video feels like Christmas morning!!!! FINALLYYYYYYY Column has a home that makes sense for her! Thank you James!!

Yes! So happy you managed to finish this built. I find it super hard to return to a resting project so I’m very impressed! And it looks much better now than with the Dream Home Decorator - randomized style. 😄

I had so much fun watching!!! I love the building videos way more than the let's play ones.

Nice! Now Column can invite Reginald and the family over for a cauldron of Mac and cheese.

So glad you've done this update to Column's house. Spent most of the beginning of the year catching up on your You Tube videos with all the Bigwallets. Looks good 👍

Worth the wait James! Great job :)

Wow this hit me like a bag of bricks nostalgia wise. I can't believe that was three years ago??? Amazing

I really like the sauna actually

Thank you for finishing this, it turned out stunning!

That house is gorgeous.. love the top floor with the organ and the entertainement room

a cherry on top would be to have Reginald's CC highschool graduation picture in the house. (Also, that's for finally fixing Column's house. It's so much better!)

So my thinking is when is it Plantains time to shine? The sauna could be changed in to a paranormal room and she can't start to talk to the ghost. Guidry can appear again

I love the building, it looks amazing! So detailed!

I know this is a year old but I'm only now getting around to watching the high school years lets play and got to this. Just letting you know James that you can use the move objects cheat and put the punching bags in corners and they will still be usable. They have a huge footprint behind them but I've never seen an animation for a Sim to go to that side of the bag. All of my bags are in corners or really close to walls and I've never had any problems with the bags.

The house is beautiful, you did such a good job James! I really really like how it turned out and it was definitely worth the wait

Thank you for this! I been needing a witchy manly house and this this is it! My storyline will soar! Thank you!

Yesss I'm so glad you're finally finishing this!

I can picture, as time and generations go on, the immortal Bigwallets slowly moving into this house. Wacky roommates through the ages. An old house becoming the center of many a neighborhood legend. An extra room with a fancy coffin in the basement and Brodi would fit right in.

When I saw this thumbnail, I legit GASPED and left another video immediately. Lol wow, finally.

Que Michael Scott’s “ITS HAPPENING! Everyone remain calm!”

This is your best build yet. Beautiful work.

Im genuinely so glad to see this house finished 💜💜💜

The hotel build was the first video I ever watched on your channel and I've been watching you ever since. When you said you were gonna finish it I had flashbacks hahaa. Too excited to finally see it complete after all these years.

I am so here for this cheeky video! Love it!!

This is such an incredible build James! Definitely very magical!

Thank you for finishing the house. Love it but then again I love all of your builds.

Yay I'm so proud of you James!! The house looks amazing.

HE DID IT!!! YES, KING. It's beautiful. ❤️🖤

Love the makeover James! It looks great

Hazel is not allowed to come over anymore!

I'm so happy you added the sauna. An underutilized addition!

I think it worked out in James's favor to wait so long. It's nice he could use the Werwolf pack items. It's true that the three occult paks go well together!

Amazing work! Loved that you had time to fix this house and of course how good it looks now 🎉 Also… i like the sauna …

Yay! Maybe Addison can go visit his grandma now!

the shape of this house, specifically the top floors, remind me of the sims 3 manors which i personally loved
