I refreshed this lot so EA doesn't have to.

EA recently refreshed 8 of the base game lots, but that leaves quite a few that are still their original version, today I'm refreshing Springscape in Oasis Springs!

I tried showing a lot more in this video, hence the length of it. Let me know if you like just hanging out and building or you prefer shorter more to the point build videos! Thought I’d give this a go :_jtytGood:

"I acknowledge it is weird, but I reject that being an issue" is my new favorite quote in /life/.

I’d love to see more base game home “refreshes”! Especially once they add some of the “nostalgia” items and such.

"I don't want to OVER panel" said no one ever in the 60s and 70s.

James, youre not going to believe me but this is the real life layout of my friend's grandma's house when I was growing up.

Once you said on the other video that it looked like they were planning on a pool but they weren't ready yet, I am seeing that everywhere. I think most, if not all, of those Oasis Springs houses were supposed to have pools

Could you also refresh the OG Bigwallet home? To celebrate the 25th birthday and since it is all about nostalgia? 👀

Also, I like the longer videos and the thought process behind a build :)

I like hanging Out while you build and explain your process. Reminds me of my childhood, sitting next to/watching my big bro play PlayStation in his room, a bit nostalgic 😅

“Not everything is gonna be brown!” James this is a midcentury inspired house 😂

As someone who lives in a desert, it's actually really common to see that "inverted" style of landscaping! Large areas of green grass, with planters full of sand/dirt and desert plants.
In my area at least, we have a huge campaign on conserving water, so areas of desert plants and rocks to break up the grass is one way to make your yard look "lush" while actually cutting back on the water needed for grass.

That first lot with the L-shaped balcony looks like it should have a pool

I really like the idea of you doing some longer form content. I have ADHD and even with medication, some days it's hard to focus on chores. Having longer content here to help me focus on folding laundry (my least favorite chore). It's also nice when I'm cuddling with my guinea pigs on the couch. It helps me so much. ❤❤❤ Thank you!

I love that they make these huge changes and everyone is like, FIX EVERYTHING! 😂

Thank you for mentioning the bug! I thought I had lost my mind looking for things in the clutter category 😂

I laughed when you said "how often do you get to have a green kitchen in the sims?" because basically every kitchen I make is green :_jtytLol: Especially since Life & Death came out, I love the green/teal colour of those counters.

I love when you do mid century inspired builds. Some of my faves to rewatch. It's so nice to hear your thought process for deciding what works best and where.

One house that "really" need a refresher is Agave Abode in Oasis Springs. It is not something that looks awful on the world map - basically it's not screaming "I need a make-over" as much as the other homes in that neighborhood. but once you load it in? Sad, drab, empty, and with a random floor tile accidentally placed outside the house. So it's no "so ugly you will feel happy renovating it" as some homes are that on purpose. But more of just dark and outdated - which is perfect for a refresher :)

I enjoy the longer build videos. Watching your "how to" build videos is what got me hooked on your channel years ago, and vids like this still help me learn about building in the game.
