The Sims 4 Academy: Swagger - Lesson 1: Create A Sim

I'm bringe watching all the trailers and I'm just laughing so much from how creative the team is

I kept seeing shots of this on a Sim Player's channel and I spent a half hour trying to find where it came from hoping to see if this character was accessible in the gallery or something. I LOVE him. I wish you guys would put him in the gallery.

The sim kinda looked like Mr. Bean!

want to play a realistic sim game? make a plum bob and put it over your head. then GO OUTSIDE. some of you dont understand how hard it is to make the game exactly how you want you either get one thing or another.dont like it? stick to sims 3. as for me im exited and cant wait for this game.

gOD I was creating Sims on that damn demo for 5 hours, what am I going to be like when the actual game comes out? *excited noises*

that sim almost gave me a heart attack because it made me laugh so hard lol

I love it so far, been creating alot of sims, it was hard to shape the face when i first tried but then it got really easy and the sims look more attractive now. I wasnt a huge fan of the sims 3 because i thought the people looked awful in it they werent attractive anywhere. So the sims 4 is a big + and i've already been pre ordering it! And cartoony? so what the sims have never been super realistic.

LOL, Oh my god. I thought it was Obama at first, but lord no.

Wow, I sure would love to play the demo, OH WAIT, I HAVE A MAC I CANT THANKS EA

The only reason why the Sims 4 is so cartooney is because to reduce glitches of the video card working too hard to produce the perfect graphics. By reading people's comments and complaining about it, now you know why.

Would really love to have the Mac version hopefully soon! Can't wait to play it.

If you search up Sims 2 trailers (base game one) you'll see that the trailer is nothing like the game itself. So why would this sort of trailer be any different?

Geez some people are so critical of something that they haven't even given a chance yet.

my problem with cas is that without cast, all my boys can wear is gendered masculine colors and an occasional pink on fancy jackets. Also no makeup for them? Women have a huge awesome selection of everything and it was super fun to make one but boys, holy shit I just wanna give him a cute sweater and skinnies.
I also missed more sliders,on the legs as I either give them huge thighs or a broken pelvis bone to give them more around the hips. Also the males thigh muscles look kiiiind of weird lol. I made a relatively lanky guy and his thighs look super trained and it looks odd with the rest of his body.
Maxis said they wanted no non binary options because it might make ppl left out,and I can respect that. What I can't respect is giving the both genders in the game absolutely gender restricted stereotyped clothing and options which is REALLY limiting. We've had makeup for men before! And what if I'd like him to wear a salmon shirt or light blue shotrts? Nop here have some dark green and grey. Also, ever heard of flat women? Because no matter what I do she wouldn't look flat.
Those points really peeved me off and nonetheless I still had fun making my characters. It is indeed much faster. Now I'm just praying for the modders to make me cute clothes soon haha.

I keep watching this over and over again lol

Everyone who is being annoying and complaining, STOP! You're bringing everyone down!
-Loading screens are under 30 seconds! That means no ghost town and no lag.
-Dying of laughter is EXTREMELY rare! That was scripted for a way to end the video
-Cute kids
-No burrito babies
-Emotions is a god send, it is amazing! Now not every sim looks the same
-Toasters. Should I say more?
-Multi-tasking
-Have "the talk"
-Don't lose every relationship when traveling to different worlds
-Pregnancy tests
-Breastfeeding
-Teens can "mess around"
There is so much more! Stop being pessimists

ugh all these people complaining about the pools, toddlers, and visuals are starting to get annoying. if you don't wanna buy the game, fine; stop watching every video the Sims uploads, thank you!

I love Sims 4 :D Can't wait for more male hair style and clothes!

to the people who constantly say "stop complaining about no toddlers and pools"- my favourite part of the sims 3 is playing with the family aspect of the game and having 6 toddlers and the challenge of raising them all with one parent. that, along with pregnancy challenges is pretty much the only gameplay i enjoy. i don't like playing with just adults i always end up with children and babies/toddlers in the game. so yes, i am not pleased that they don't have toddlers in the game. and i won't be buying it because it simply does not appeal to me without them. simple. i know I'm not alone with this point so please stop yelling at all the people complaining about it because not everyone likes the same kind of gameplay as you.

In The sims 5 EA will make the best graphic ever, and people will start to complaining that game is to slow and have much bugs..... In fact, i believe sims 5 will be a virtual reality played with a kinda of "google glass"

Lol I'm so used to rotating the sim with the mouse that I do it in the Sims 4, and it always changes something on them and ruins it.

Lol that guy was so fugly!!! Can't wait for this game!

I do think the Sims 4 has many more options on the body, which is amazing, but what I really miss in the Sims 4 is the option to choose your own colors and patterns for clothes and hairstyles. That was the most amazing part about the Sims 3, you had so many options with colors and patterns, on walls, on floors, objects, hairstyles and clothes. In the Sims 4, at least in the demo, you could only choose colors and patterns from the Sims 4 itself and you couldn't change them. Also, what happened with the swimwear? And what's with the party wear when you already have formal wear? Apart from that, I'm very excited about the rest of the game! It looks amazing! :D

Quasimodo, is that you?

xD I can't wait for this! :D

Lacy:You Are Waiting!
Holly: I Can't Wait!

I think it looks awesome, I can't wait! :)

i love the new create a sim so much with the sims 3 no matter how much i tried i couldnt get it to look like me but now with the sims 4 i got it to look like me in an instant, and i love the new style ea brought to the game the cartoonish look makes it look more real in a way, well thats just my opinion and i cant wait to have it on my pc!

Awesome game, awesome demo. Die hard Sims fan, despite there being a few things I'm bummed about the game not having. I still love. F the haters honestly. If you don't like it, don't get it. Simple.

is there any way of getting the demo for free on macs? and will the game be available on macs when it comes out?

LOL KEEP 'EM COMING!

They removed pools. Along with 180 other features.
How long will it be before we see the exclusive "Swimming DLC" for $10 on Origin?

That was simply beautiful.

Im actually looking forward to this

OH I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH BETTER THIS IS FROM THE SIMS 3

looks really good

I surprisingly enjoyed messing around with the CAS demo, it's a little dull and plain in the background instead of your sims standing in like a room in front of a mirror but i guess that it what you are going for now *sleek* and *streamlined*, and i'm glad the demo has the community part in it as well, my best part was probably the new styles of walks. (btw i made a male commander shepard)

I'm playing this right now can't get enough! It's easy to make good looking sims aswell which I thought was going to be very hard

Will the sims 4 be available for macs also, as I am a dedicated sims fan xD and I am really upset that the demo is only available for pcs, meaning only pcs users are able to try this amazing experience.

I love these videos! His voice is so perfect, and the videos shown what we actually do--i.e. the pool.

His Face!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I CANT WAIT !! HAAA

Is that Charlie Day on the VO?

It's Charlie from always Sunny

when you give a sim the right walk style nothing changes. your sim just prances around like a ninnie

Can't wait!!!

Its really cute :)
Good job ^-^#

omg yes finally the cas demo is open to everyone yes cant wait to download and play !!!!!!!!!!

"Well you can tell by the way I use my walk..."

So, played the demo. The new features are cool and pretty fun, but I need a color wheel. I wonder if anyone knows if they will/could put that back. I don't even need the patterns and stuff, but I HATE pre-set colors, especially for skin tones. My skin does not fit into any of those colors.

I was thrilled to be able to Play the demo so I spent a lot of time on it last night, I tried to create a simself and yeah those are not as easy as you would think...lol but it was fun to try. I guess it would take lots of time to play with it and get used to all the features and how to use it to. but hey demo was great and really fun to explore. Plus I just had surgery and am still in recovery so...I guess in due time. Thanks EA.

CAS is way much better now. I tried it yesterday a few hours after it came out and it's the biggest improvement and I LOVE how we can share and save Sims but the push and pull is so difficult. Maybe it's because I'm using a laptop and I don't have a mouse? I don't know but I look forward to how much fun it will be after customizing the perfect Sims in our imaginations and bringing them to life in their new world :)

The voice sounds like one of the voices Bashurverse does.

I didn't even know the demo was out...I wish I had my PC with me!

WHYYYYY aren't you releasing Sims 4 on Mac? :( My heart is truly breaking right now..

Show!!! Esta muito realista o jeito dos sims, até as pernas tremem kkkkkk

i cant wait for this game

Can't wait to play this game on September 2nd, its going to be great.

Ha! Been liking the ads lately, they remind me of the early 2000 commercials of the original Sims, for the expansion packs.

LOL loved this, x

What do you mean shouldn't? THAT IS THE HOTTEST GUY I'VE EVEN SEEN!!

I wanna see the actual gameplay demo! :|

Lol bashur was the one talking love it

I installed the demo and when I go into my games in Origin it says to install it again? So I do and I've done it so many times but it's not working? Any advice please

Where can I find this weird sim guy on the gallery?

I downloaded it & I'm on a laptop but it's really hard for me to adjust the features and stuff is that just me ? Or my mouse because it's like I can barely move it

it made me laugh when I saw the face I thought it was you know who at first

Who's the voice over??

i have a question my sims 4 demo won't let me play without a video card, could i get anwsers why?

Sims 3 was such a chore.I focused on their needs being up more than actually enjoying it. They said that will be different this time so I hope so. Does anybody now if this is coming out on Xbox 360 or Xbox one? Or is it just for the PC?

Was the voice over Todd from BarelyPolitical?

Charlie Day's voice is the best part of this trailer!

I'm trying to play the demo on my PC right now. My system meets the requirements but it's not working. If I can't play the demo then most likely I won't be able to play the real game. *sigh* Guess I'm sticking to The Sims 3 :(

I wonder what the custom content will look like for this game. Hehehe

I felt like adding this to my previous comment but since its unrelated - To those who dislike the new sims 4 theme or say "ill stick to sims 2" please do. They gain way to many fans who respect them for what they're doing now and their game, so kindly stay playing sims 2. I hope you enjoy it for years to come.

LOVE THIS SIM SO MUCH, I CREATED ONE FOR MY GAME! REMINDS ME OF SOMEONE I USED TO WORK WITH!
ON A DOWNSIDE, A COUPLE OF TIMES AFTER I CREATED A SIM THE PROGRAMME BECAME UNRESPONSIVE AND CRASHED TWICE ALREADY. ALSO HAPPENS WHEN I CHECK OUT THE GALLERY.... :/

It hurts me that i can't play the sims 4 create a sim demo, because origin is bugged out and won't let me log in with the launcher :( so i have to wait for the game....

I honestly thought the sim was going to be Obama.
"Aaand theres the presi- WHAT THE FECK!"

Todd, is that you? The voice sounds amazingly familiar like in Barely Political.

Mr. Fixit outfit?

for some reason im still getting the game for x-mas

I could of download it if you PUT IT ON FOR MACS!!!

I still don't understand why everyone is saying that Sims 4 is going to be awful. The big 3 main complaints I've seen are the lack of a pool, the lack of toddlers, and the cartoony style.
The first two things are unfortunate, but they shouldn't be a total deal breaker unless you're OBSESSED with swimming and, well, toddlers.
The last thing is subjective, though I have zero problems with the cartoony style and I think it looks fantastic, very expressive!

My Sims 4 CAS has a bunch of pink and white lines goin' around it just because I don't have the correct graphics card. At least it's useable, so I'm not really complaining. I'm going to get a new laptop soon with a betters graphics card, so there isn't much I can really say other than that.

Rofl. That face thoo omg

It's Charlie Kelly from it's always sunny in Philadelphia doing the voicover

Is this Character on the Gallery? Anyone Know?

Haha, his face!

Just waiting for CC to make them look 10x better 😊

For some reason I find this one easier to run than The Sims 3. No lag in loading up apparels and stuff like that. But it just doesn't feel "Sim-ish" as the 3rd one for me.

I like it so much 😁 🤣

Too bad I can't create one cause I only own mac computers..

Is that Charlie Day narrating?? Bonus points!

GREAT! How can I survive the rest of the days

I can't wait for sims 4, but if the clothes that are on the create-a-Sim are all the clothes in the game i'm gonna be slighty upset. but i guess there are still mods...

Does the link actually work?

Moral of the Story: "LOOKS DON'T MATTER AS LONG AS YOU'VE GOT SWAG"

Can someone please help me I want to save my sim picture on my desktop how can I screenshot or save sim picture please help

Sims 4 has 78 things that should already be in game. No sims this year i'm sticking with sims 3 and life this year till expansion packs are out

Is that Charlie Day doing the voice over for this commercial??
