Today on the Community Spotlight we have a fun interview with YouTuber and community member MySimsAddiction! Take it away M!

Could you please tell us a little bit about yourself and what you do?

Hi! My name is M and I am a really weird geeky chick who loves unicorns and the Sims. I basically talk to myself while playing the Sims and make videos of it on YouTube in hopes I can make at least one person out there smile. The Sims has always been a great love of mine and finding this wonderful community has been the most fun I have had in my whole life!

When did you first start playing The Sims? Was it love at first sight?

I started playing the Sims a couple years after it came out when my dad told me about it! I remember him mentioning it to me, and I was like “Whaaaaattttt Dad?”, just kinda blowing him off not knowing what he was talking about. A little bit later he actually bought Sims 1 for me , and I fell in love right then and there. I have not stopped playing ever since! 

What do you think of The Sims 4 so far?

I think the Sims 4 is a fantastic base game. Outdoor Retreat came out and added some really cool stuff to the game as well. I guess I am just thinking big picture and imaging what it is gonna be like down the road! I think Sims 4 has so much potential and I love that it just runs so smoothly. I love it so far.

What sounds most appealing to you about The Sims 4 Get to Work, if anything?

I am SO excited for Get to Work! I think the most exciting thing I have heard so far has to be about the Private Investigator career! It just looks like so much fun and I absolutely can not wait to play it!

I remember when you first got The Sims 4 CAS demo and did a live stream – on a scale of 1 to 100, how excited were you to play that day back in July?!

That day… was so CRAZY! First of all, I was so excited to actually play a part of the Sims 4. I just couldn’t help but share it with everyone else. I never ever in a million years expected that many people to show up, even the Sims team! Definitely a 5 million out of 100.

What is your favourite Sims game to date and why? My personal favourite is The Sims 2 Open for Business!

I have to agree with you on that one! The Sims 2 was sooooo fun, and I just remember having so many weird, crazy things happening to my Sim families. Open For Business was my absolute favorite expansion though. I could spend hours upon hours running my own toy shop!

What inspired you to create a YouTube channel?

Honestly, just watching so many other people have fun doing it! I think the “last straw” for a lack of a better saying was watching xUrbanSimsx’s LP’s! She creates the coolest back stories for her Sims and made me wanna do that too! I didn’t know if it was gonna be something I kept up with until I met so many people who loved the Sims too and I became a part of the community. Ever since then, I have loved every moment of talking to so many sweet Sim lovers!

What would you say to someone who is thinking of creating their own YouTube channel?

I would just say to not worry about what everyone else is doing and just be yourself! 

Thank you for doing this interview with me! Is there anything else you’d like to say to the readers?

If we haven’t met before, I would love to meet you! You can find me on twitter @MagicalMunicorn or MySimsAddiction on YouTube! Happy Simming! (:
