Well then again, I contacted an EA Advisor and they said you can upload the videos with music from the game (3rd-party music is a separate issue) and be alright. But then I asked if I could monetize the videos and they said based on the information they have in their help center, you can't monetize the videos. EA's website states that they are okay with commercialized videos (as of October 1, 2015), so it could just be that EA Advisors don't have all of the information. I have monetized my Sims 4 videos and so far there haven't been any problems, although most of the in-game music is cut out in my videos. I know there are a bunch of youtubers who post the Sims 4 soundtrack and monetize the videos (which I think is worse than having a little bit of the music in your videos), but they seem to be alright. Pewdiepie has in-game music in his Sims videos, and he's doing just fine. I think the worst case scenario is that youtube will flag it, and tell you that that specific video cannot be monetized, but EA's website and the EA advisors agree on one thing, and that is you CAN post gameplay videos on youtube without monetization.
