Hello everyone! 💖 I hope you enjoy today's video! Poor Polly needs your help in game! How do you play with her? Stick til the end to learn her full story 💔 personally, I always have her become a writer and let her live the life she deserves!!!! Queen Polly 👑
i actually love her sim 😂😂
I always have to delete and reinstall S3 when too many bugs.
Polly's one of the first Sims I choose only to get her some money and a nicer apartment and a make over. Then she's on her own.
@@TimeTheory2099 sims 3 is really buggy for me most of the time abs i used a mac which is not really good for sims 😂
@@xcvrpt
Yes, I'm addicted to Sims.
I reinstall about every six months. I've found the less big changes to the building's or lot's the fewer bug's
I hope you do a let’s play giving her the life she deserves to off set the let’s play of giving Reuben the life he deserves.
The Sims 3 poor and rich people actually have stories while in the Sims 4 Lily Feng can be seen sleeping on benches and dumpster diving
And Judith Ward fishing in the poor parts of Willow Creek
Wait, she’s homeless?
@@MaeMaeC2077 nah sims 4 sim just interact with everything they come across... never went to the park to see the local socialite sleeping on a bench? sims 4 is just super realistic!
So true
I hate classes and capitalism irl BUT I feel like having a class system in the sims could be helpful for this, so every sim kind of has a class,
And then there can be 4 different lot traits that you can set for each lot so this is prevented and Judith Ward isn't singing Karaoke in planet honey pop
So like 'lower, upper, middle, and all classes' Lot traits. but maybe in the form of how they have done the pronouns update so it doesn't take up space for other lot traits we want to ise
@@yan5200 That was a thing since the sims 1 superstar, then again with the sims 2 apartment life, and I think is in the sims 3 since base game.
Polly married my sim (famous singer) and got the happy ever after as she deserves
Yesss go Polly!! 👏👏
I STAN YOU!!!!!
Yay!
Merciful Queen 💕
She deserved it, so we stan Poppy
No one:
EA: ends every sims 3 household bio with a question mark
I do the same when I write my sims bios 😵😂
@@8bitmermaid me too
I cannot believe I never noticed that
It adds suspense and options
I do the same, especially if I post it for others to share. I do it to signify the freedom to change the characters stories and designs.
"Only God can judge her and in this case I'm God."
I'm deceased.
I grew so attached to her, i almost forgot that she's a vanilla character. When i got my gaming pc and i was finally able to play the game properly, i randomly picked Buster Round in Bridgeport just to see how the game looks on max graphics, without lag. But then i started to like him and his story. I met Polly, we became lovers and asked her to join my band and we did quite well. She became pregnant so we decided it's time to move. Now we live in Appaloosa Plains on a huge pumpkin farm and our son just turned young adult.
Oh that dounds peaceful...
@@nougatella9820 It really is. They reached their life goals, got tired of the big city, i changed their lifetime wish and now they live a quiet life. Gardening, cooking, hosting bonfire parties. And with that grandma's canning station thing from the store, they make insane amounts of money :D
Awww that’s so sweet!
@@tocske Wow.I played her in the select household and moved her to twinbrook..i made her a big house, and i will get her new clothes...ill also change her biography..
Omg that sounds like the perfect love movie. I love this game so much. The depth and the things you can do? Unlimited!
Oh yeah, good old Bridgeport - the capital of Lore and Drama
I never thought Polly was poor! I never really paid much attention to her, when i used to play in bridgeport i thought she was a rich snob because of her fancy coat. Now i feel bad for her. Now i want to explore the lore of every family in every world my sims live 😝
Yeah, same, I always ignored her. Poor Polly
Fancy clothes don't always show a high financial status, not even in the Sims.
@@arieltales8952 correction it shows either current or former wealth that being said the latter is heavily implied here
@@sockshandle The name of the building implies a relative of Polly was wealthy and maybe Polly parents weren't poor but they wasted their fortune.
However a poor lady can wear a fancy coat due to several reasons: she is a maid and the owner of the household gave her an old coat, charity, she found it in the garbage, she stole it, she wasted most of her savings in this coat, etc.
@@arieltales8952 thing is the coat is not “Fresh” that is to say it doesn’t look laundered properly (not to mention her shoes) you can say that she got the coat from a former tenant or her mother but that still means that it overall doesn’t imply wealth on its own especially if some items of clothing contradict (for example her sandals with the mink coat) (not disagreeing on the implication of her building or Bio)
This series is really driving home how much more content the sims 3 had compared to the sims 4. Late Night was one expansion pack that the sims 4 has taken 4+ packs to cover.
@@mollymcginnis5348 They did PvZ and TS dirty
@@mollymcginnis5348 EA has always been like this. It just didn’t show in the Sims as much until Sims 4.
@@mollymcginnis5348 the sincerity you're thinking of was never EA, it was maxis
@@himikoyumenotheultimatedet3411 also Dragon age, Mass Effect, Command & Conquer, Dead Space, SW battlefront, Anthem, Dirt... Wait the list just goes on and on
Yup. TS3 and even TS2, although much older than TS4, are a lot better.
These videos really make me wanna play with TS3, it’s just a shame that my laptop couldn’t handle it.
I’m currently playing with TS2, and it has soooo much more than TS4, even though 2 is a lot older and everything...
Anyone noticed the word “maloney” is like a mix of the words “money” and “lonely”? It definitely shows how poor Polly struggles finding friends because of her financial situation.
More like money and looney or money crazy but went bankrupt.
Idk first thing that came to mind was Baloney
Polly reminds me a lot of Little Edie Beale, who became famous for being in the Grey Gardens documentary in the 1970s. Like Polly, Little Edie came from a prestigious family (she was Jackie Kennedy's 1st cousin) but she and her mother lost their money and lived in squalor in their formerly up-market house. She also wore an old fur coat very much like Polly. Seriously, I'd recommend that people looked up Grey Gardens - it was fascinating
You're right :o
She would probably cringe at the socks and flip flops 😂, she was a fashionable lady
The ring Polly wears (5:24) matches the one that Lotta Graves wears. (4:22 in "The Grave Behind Plasma 501 | A True Sims Crime"). They have the same metal colour and even the same gem. I'm not sure how customizable rings were in Sims 3, but it seems interesting that they are a perfect match and these women lived in the same city. Friends? Lovers?
rings are fully customizable in ts3! that's a good eye!
What a good catch!
I think this particular ring always has a gold band, but the stone color of Polly's ring isn't one of the default colors- my initial thought was that they could be related like the ring was passed down to Polly when Lotta died ? The only similarities I see between them is that they both have grey hair and eyes, and they have the same lifetime wish
I like how these are rings but you say friends first then lovers XD just good ol gal pals.
@@asmrtpop2676 ahaha i was just putting the ideas in order for the most dramatic delivery, I certainly lean more towards lovers than friends for these two (who else wears matching rings on their ring fingers?)
She is definitely a sim I would love to play. She has just enough challenge to make it fun and enough backstory to let you make her story your own.
Wait...you’re telling me I’ve played Sims 3 for thousands of hours, a decent chunk of them being in Bridgeport, and had many Sims become friends with Polly, and I never knew about any of this?! What?? Your videos are teaching me so many new things about this game, thank you for making them. I’ll definitely have to play with Polly sometime!
Polly is my favourite premade in the entire game, I just really love struggling to get her a better life and slowly giving her a prettier basement and wardrobe. I dumpster dive bit keep all the quirky stuff she might dive up. Also, I paired her up with Buster because the story of the two of them fighting for a better life is just too cute.
i do the same thing
I actually cried one time thinking about Polly. I don't regret it at all.
Polly reminds me to Agnes Crumplebottom because both are romantic, bookworm and frugal, live alone and somehow they are ignored by society (nobody remembers Erik Darling except Agnes so nobody knows about her sorrow and Polly is ignored for being poor in a city designed by a rich corrupt, Nick Alto's brother, for rich people).
my sim, who was an inventor, met her in a scrapyard while scavenging for scraps. I remembered wondering why someone dressed in a furcoat was doing a scrapyard (well i often find celebrities there too for some reason, must've been high-end scraps). I then visited her lot and was surprised to she that see lives in the basement of the building in a pretty run-down apartment.
MY SIM MARRIED HER AND GAVE HER THE LIFE SHE DESERVES AND THEY ADOPTED A KID AND I LOVE THEM
Also I love your storytelling. As someone who’s tried to make stories in the sims I very much respect your hustle.
i actually love this story and the way that she lives…. in the appartment basement? ohhh u go sims 3 team… thats such a good storytelling and just a great gameplay
Nice vid! A video about community lots would be cool
I agree!
And I didn't know you like Sim Lore
Thank you Hannah! 💖
Oh lord. The Shityflute music got me-
Me too lmao
I nearly never play a premade household, but this inspired me and now Polly is married to Matty and they have a son and while not rich they're living comfortably, I still haven't been able to get them to move out of where she was living before hand. My plan was for them to work through their young adult life stage and have a kid as soon as both were adults, but they both got the wish 'have first child' and I couldn't resist.
Love this! Polly deserves the best, they're probably so happy 😊💕
I misread the Title as "Bridgeport's Poorest President".
Same omg
Same 😭
I think she's an absolutely beautiful Sim, one of the nicest ones in my opinion. I have a current save where she's already pretty well off with a fiance and I'm aiming for a legacy.
polly's one of my favorite bridgeport sims! and you're right, her basement apartment is huge and you can do a ton of stuff with it! one of my favorite things to do is renovate the apartment and have her be successful!
How did I not know about Polly!? I need to explore Bridgeport more
I love Sims 3 bc even 10+ years after release I'm still learning new things about it. A video on community lots across the series would be really interesting imo!
“only god can judge her. and in this case, i’m god.” this SENT me
The flute sent me.
Damn.....now im going to go play Polly now and give her a happy ending.😢
in my game polly had 3 kids with matthew hamming and matthew cheated on her while she was pregnant, he is following footsteps of ruben lol
I loved your perspective about Polly. It's one of the intriguing down to earth mysteries of Bridgeport rather than any dramas. When I usually play in Bridgeport, story progression usually pair her with Buster and usually get promoted easily, like after one week I used Edit Town and saw she already raised 2100>. She's is one of the Sims in Bridgeport who doesn't get involved to any of the rubbish Bridgeport has.
It might be pretty cool to do a rags to riches with her with the ultimate goal of buying the moloney property
I love the idea / detail that she used to have Louboutins and she sold those to get some money.
I'm coming back to Polly when I don't want to play my Sims anymore. She became a writer, went to university. For now, Polly is not ready for love because she was heartbroken(Buster only calls her when he needs something, Ace was interested in her but married his flatmate instead). Also, she is slowly renovating her basement. I had an idea that whatever happens to Polly(propably she will move to another city), she wanted to leave this place for anyone who needs a flat to start their live in Bridgeport.
I read the title as "Bridgeport's poorest resident | Post Malone" :DDDDD
I read Poorest President and thought I knew even less than I thought
@@drake713 "Bridgeport's poorest president | Post Malone" even better :DDD
Sorry, as a perfume freak, I also read Malone with connection to set of colognes
I love Polly 🥺 also for a premade sim I think she’s pretty
That is so weird I didn’t even know she was poor. She’s super rich in my game with her husband Matty Crewe. They’re vampires And they have a son together. They both are 5 star celebrities. I don’t play them. I don’t even know how they got so rich and to 5 stars 😂. I was editing my world and noticed it.
Damn at least in certain realities she is ballin the in rich life 😂
I guess the sims wanted her to get a happy ending.
I once renovated her tower into the most luxurious penthouse in the whole city 👀
I audibly laughed so loud my neighbors heard me at “in this case I am god so I’m judging her”
I like Polly. I made her a successful author. She got a makeover, but ended up returning to her original apartment as a sort of bohemian hideaway
She's really amping her content and we dont deserve it
Your videos made me appreciate the pre made sims a lot more, and it gave me a reason to play the sims, since I'm not to good at creating stories.
Polly has resilience. She deserves a good life.
10:22 That's a nice touch, the lift doors not closing correctly, indicating it's either cheap or badly maintained.
I gave Polly always a better life, bc i feel so pity for her. :( I always turned her into a vampire and leveled her up as a star. Most of the time I hooked her up with Buster and gave them a nicer house and clothes.
It’s the fur coat and socks and sandals for me 😂😭Polly seems like a sweet character though
Getting her out of poverty and completing her lifetime wish at the same time is super easy. When she is off work have her practice guitar until she can play for tips. Find a location allot of sims will show up at when yours does and play for tips until she is exhausted or she has needs to take care of. As she plays she earns tips and gains friendship with those who are listening and when around level 10 with guitar at the right spots she could make ~1.5k per day in tips and can quit her part time job. A few weeks of that and she can get one of the nicer apartments, a month and one of the empty houses near the mayors house. I have a Sim in Sunset Valley that does just that, started with just a guitar on an empty lot and not a penny to her name. Find some harvestable fruits for food or raid the picnic baskets at the park, shower at the pool, nap on a couch in the library, practice guitar and start earning tips until you can put a bed on your sims lot so he/she can get a proper sleep. In a month your sim will be best friends with most everyone in town and have a normal house just from playing for tips in front of the theater.
Guys, I have totally missed this lore as I was playing strictly in Sunset Valley, but it’s rather heartwarming to read that many of you have given Polly life she deserves
The Brandi Broke of Bridgeport
I would love to see all the lore behind Roaring Heights, Monte Vista or Starlight Shores ❤️❤️❤️
Roaring Heights would be especially juicy for lore, with the whole gangster/gatsby vibe going on.
Yessss and the Capp family from sims 2 is there!
omg yesss the Davis-Welles household is really interesting bc they're both married to each other BUT they both have gay lovers 👀
also Mr. Simovitch is a sugar daddy material 👀👀
@@yenisoediro omg YESSSS
A video about community lots would be really helpful
I thought she maybe could’ve married into money. It would make sense with her hopeless romantic trait. Maybe she married into the Maloney house before they went bankrupt and after they did, her husband skipped town without her. That made more sense to me than her parents just leaving her behind like that. Her being frugal could also be a product of her not growing up with much money.
I feel so sorry for Polly...but also I admire her, she is really strong and brave!
conference rooms and children's areas are pretty standard for big city libraries. they're fantastic community centers and its nice that Maxis represented this :D
The flutes 😂
THE FLUTE LOL
2:10 I was NOT ready for this lmaooooo
Love the story 💗 I tried to play kinda „rags to riches” but she immediately found tiberium in the garbage and that was game over 🤣
Last time I was this early the sims still had bunk beds.
So happy you uploaded 😭😭❤❤ i never noticed her before wow she makes me so sad. I wanna make her life better 😭
You posted this right on time I was just sitting down for lunch now I have a nice hot meal and an awesome video to watch I feel blessed! 🥰❤
This video inspired me to find Polly and pick her up. First thing "she" did was sell the dangerous, crumbling old building to the city and buy an empty 10x15 lot. "She" built a tiny underground house (much cheaper). After that "she" slowly built up a good life working her way up at the bookstore until she could afford university. Now she's got her arts degree and is a writer selling books. Soon she will be building a small house above-ground. So, she's not wealthy, but neither is she in miserable poverty anymore.
I know you might not see this, but thank you for sharing my reddit post about that maid. It made my day.
Bridgeport is my 2nd favorite city in The Sims 3, I played a lot there and never even thought Polly might be poor. I payed attention to her fancy coat and never noticed her shoes nor played or visited her "apartment" so she seemed like a rich snob xD
OMG I died at the realty commercial portion that’s amazing editing
Thanks TS Lore. 👍
I really liked your short story about Polly at the end of the video.
I would love to watch you play Polly's character as an edited short story. ☮️
Yess a new video:) I really needed this-
Me too
your voice is relaxing i promise im not a simp
It can be fun playing a struggling poor sim. Living in basically a cardboard box and wearing a suit coat made of newspaper but get a lot of good relationships because you go out and about because there's nothing really to do at home. Getting good relationships might mean getting more money begging
getting a sim out of poverty is sooo easy... you can just sell flowers or paintings. imagine trying to get an american out of poverty, now that's a challenge
I wish shere was a *motherlode* in real life
@@diemilch555 I would even take ‘kaching’ if it was on offer
Stop whining. Imagine getting a North Korean out of poverty.
@@frichickenishabrown6344 ah yes, the good old "others have it worse so you should just shut up and accept the shitty state of things"
Hi, just found your channel and I really apreciate it. Just started playing with Polly, in my version of the story, she's a journalist climbing her way up the ladder whilst also freelancing as a novelist. My plan for her is to find her a partner, adopt one child and have one child of her own.
Never knew about this at all, I remember playing my past sims playing at Bridgeport and seeing Polly, but thanks for this video, I haven't been playing Bridgeport for storyline purposes (I am playing at Roaring Heights atm), but I do suggest doing a video or maybe history video on the community lots! :D
I don't even knew about her, but I LOVE HER!!! ♥
I always had only the base game and never played with any pre-made households, but I want so hard to play as her now, she's such an awesome girl
This video genuinely makes me want to play as her right now. Precious bean!
In my game I had her work on her writing skill at the local library and start writing books so she could earn money to attend university. While in university she met Che Justice and they began dating, after she got her degree came back to Bridgeport wit Che and I had them work to earn money so they can get away from Bridgeport completely and find a nice house elsewhere. I moved them to twinbrook and now they have 3 kids. Jewel, Pecana and Riot.
playing bridgeport rn
love the new real estate bit! very very nice!
Wow, I didn't know about Polly at all!!! Girl, lemme save you from this misery! Also, I would love a video on public lots c:
Maybe it's the mink coat, but she gives me real Grizabella the Glamour Cat vibes. The popularity aspiration fits pretty well with that too.
A community lot video would be really cool. I bet there's some lore in the lots.
I LOVED this video and particularly enjoyed the recreation of Polly's story! You put a lot of effort into that
I think I might like this lass. I like to start out dirt poor and work my Sims up to being wealthy.
My lad Jaden couldn't even afford to pay the bills early on, so it felt good when he finally had enough to buy the Tudor in Sunset Valley. I was gutted when they had to leave it.
Aaah! I never thought I'd be this early! I love these videos and appreciate the work that goes into them 💖 Also, love those edits, they get me everytime 😂
there was a drama where in my legacy chalenge my gen 2 kid now an young adult met her. and when he made a wedding party for him and his fiancee 2 hours before the wedding she called to ask him on a date! (keep in mind that she had a crush on him :0)
9:07 Yes, that would be really cool! I'm a little too lazy to really take a look at the community lots myself, to be honest 😅
I love your videos! recently I've noticed that Billie Jean Sparks (a professor from the university) is by default is romantically involved with a few female students. I think it would be cool if you made a video about her!
In my game Tiara Angelista from Bridgeport is bisexual with a strong preference for female sims which I thought was cool af
im polly right now
I would love a series about community lots!!
the real estate bit at the start caught me off guard lmao
In my game, she's now married to Matty and has a son. I also got her a steadier job and a better home for her family. Honestly, I think she deserved a better life than what she had. :)
that building is the liminalest space of all liminal spaces
Polly is one of my favorite sims to play!
Thank you for ways to play with :D You could do this to some more families, this video gave me inspiration for new gameplay :D
This editing is amazing!
I’d love to see videos on community lots!
Polly reminds me of little Edie from grey gardens, the big fur coat and old money gone to waste is very fitting as well
I will make her buy Red Berry Plants to plant or Toy Arcade Machine to play with which comes with Supernatural EP. She will get rich quickly for sure✨✨
Oh I love these Bridgeport videos ☺️
