thanks to everyone who has been tuning in, this has been a lot of fun ! - Ігри
The family living in "Pristine and Pretty" is inspired by Cinderella and the dark ugly bedroom downstairs is for the daughter, who has to be the servant for her step-family :D
Thank you! Cinderella is my favourite story ever, I would have done a French chateau like in the 1950 movie
@@Rekowcski Interesting fact, my grandma was born in 1950 so I never forget what year the 1950 Cinderella came out lol 😂
My 2 favourite movies are both from that year so it's easy for me to remember too!
@@Rekowcski that’s cool 😊
Even though some of the builds are ugly at least the world is aesthetically pleasing.
I still think it has the best greenery space out of any world.
yay hidden springs, been waiting for this one! i think it's loosely based on small alpine countries hence the abundance of swiss chalet-like buildings
I’m glad they used inspiration but didn’t make it somewhere specific. I dont like the world adventures worlds because I keep seeing Japanese things in “China” for example 😂
I think with roofs EA tried to do thing called Krüppelwalmdach, most common in Germany and Hidden Springs is kinda inspired by style of this country I guess. It's supposed to block water ingress on gable wall.
Anyway thanks for another vid, too bad houses in hidden springs are so boringly ugly though ._.
The roofing is also known as “jerkinhead” here, but of course EA didn’t do it correctly.
It isn't that blue and green don't go good together, mother nature does it fantastically all the time. it is just that whoever decided those two shades were a good idea probably flunked coloring class in Pre-School. They should have looked at a photo of a blue flower or something and matched the blue and green.
Blue and Green should never be seen, except in the washing machine 😂
@@Rekowcski At least they'd be clean.🤣
I'm actually playing a game in Hidden Springs right now, so this was perfect. Have to admit, though, that once I'm out of the starter home, I pretty much always do my own build (this time my guy's a loner outdoorsy guy, so he built his own cabin, heh) because I really don't like the size of most EA builds once you're out of the starter homes: they are just uncomfortably spacious.
A couple things: I think it makes some sense for all the wealthy folk to have their own exercise equipment. The world's backstory is that all this rich people are there for a health cure, so it's not surprising they're into exercise (and of course they can afford to have their own home gyms). And I actually thought Liam's house (Just Enough Bungalow) was surprisingly well done. He's supposed to be a geeky dork with no fashion sense, and his house looks as close to that as possible without bringing in additional stuff from the store. I always figured all of that extra furniture stuffed in there was hand-me-downs from his mother who he couldn't say no to!
Looking forward to the next one!
"uncomfortably spacious" may be the perfect description for an EA build
2:37 am here rn and i was so bored cuz i can’t sleep.. thx for saving my night 😅 x
Wow you’re up late 😮 it’s only around 8pm here rn 😅😂
@@16taysia yes, i took a long nap yesterday and now i‘m not tired at all 😂🥲
I hope your sleep balances, it’s 6am here and I am tragically on my way to work
I recently moved my family that I've been playing for 2 years to Hidden Springs, so I was really exited about this video. After watching it tho, I know that I'll have to make my next heir an interior designer 😆
It’s a great job for anyone living in hidden springs or twinbrook 😂
2 years? Wow...
How does your family tree look like?
I LOVE the kitchen tiles in the Perfect Family Home. One of my biggest gripes with building in the sims 4 is that none of the tiles look like actual kitchen tiles 😫
I was literally trying a Sims 4 kitchen yesterday, and all the tiles were awful. I ended up having to use this hideous floral base game wallpaper because nothing else looked like a kitchen :(
This is my most played world. I just love the saturated green grass
I agree the outdoors of Hidden Springs is pretty and I agree with the few nice houses you pointed out. I love the lil gypsy home. Would like to see how you would improve it.
As long as I'm not decorating for a gypsy wedding or holiday, I should be able to spruce it up haha
My thought about there being multiple scores of 2 already in this world:
Rich people really do know how to be TACKY and architects cannot talk them out of bad decisions bc they pay them tons and tons of money. 👍
I hope one day I can design something ugly for a rich person
I was waiting for hidden springs, thanks 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I've been waiting for it too.
those roofs look weird af but to be fair if i tried to recreate my aunt's very real countryside house in the sims 3 i'd probably tried to do something similar with the roof. it just doesn't really work in the game because roofs in the sims 3 kinda suck in general. they almost got somewhere with the house on 16:28 but uh... yeah
Have you thought about rating the unoccupied builds in each town? BTW how do you visit each occupied without playing the sims to edit the home?
already screaming at the “(UGLY ALERT)” in the title LOL. first vid of yours i’ve seen and i love it so far, can’t wait to get into the rest of this series !!
Twinbrook is also an “ugly alert” lol
yay!!! been waiting for this one so long ! love this !!!!
We finally got to it!
WATCHING THIS WHILE I'M WORKING (home office) ! DON'T U DARE STOP ENTERTAINING US!
kisses from brazil !
Obrigado 💕 🇧🇷
That second to last house seems like a Cinderella story
i actually cut out a part where I said one of the girls was ugly and now I realize that it's probably the ugly step sister haha
Hidden Springs is my favorite world and I couldn't wait for this video to come out. Sometimes the houses are very beautiful, such as Ponderosa or the small chalet, even if perhaps the color combinations can sometimes be questionable and would need a touch-up, but the others sometimes have that strange roof.. which didn't really appeal to me convinced. I once played Hidden Springs with a sims and got a starter house and my goodness I lost my retinas because of the patterns and colors XD
Someone told me it’s their favourite world, but they use an empty one (like newcrest) usually haha
@@Rekowcski When I play the sims 4 with regard to newcrest I take various lots that I saved in the gallery and leave only some free land, I wouldn't have the strength and the desire to build a house from scratch, same thing for the sims 3 I always buy a starter and then I modify it to my liking over time XD
That style of roof is called a Jerkinhead. It combines a gable and hip roof and is a traditional style of roof. They're typically found on Arts and Crafts style homes, Craftsman homes and English country style homes, Queen Anne homes and Tudor Revival Homes.
Yes I was looking into it, but EA put theirs 1 tile out for no reason :( ... I saw other simmers do it and it can look nice
I swear your literally the best sims youtuber I love your personality
Thank you that means a lot. 💕
Omg I’m so glad I found this channel!!!
Welcome 🙏
Finally got some store worlds, rushed here to rewatch the reviews 😂
that roof style is called half-hipped roof or sometimes known as clipped gable roof and ‘jerkinhead’ … minds out the gutter 🫢 you see it a lot on tudor homes, farmhouses, and barns. I think it’s more common in europe. it’s basically a mixture of gable with a hipped roof at the top.
i googled it... but EA is putting the hipped part 1 tile too far :|
@@Rekowcski yeaaa they did. that bugged me lol
Ponderosa Place gave me vibes like someones fancy ski lodge they rent for the winter for two weeks, not an actual home? Idk.
We have a lot of chalets and lodges here, and ponderosa definitely gives out that vibe, from the outside at least.
20:30 Oh look it's a double rainbow over Rekowcski's head🌈🥰
Are there always 2 or is the world glitching? Maybe one is from the world and one from my lighting mod 😂
@@Rekowcski Sometimes there are three!
Loved that old money mansion 😍
I was pleasantly surprised, from map view it looked like an EA disaster.
“The wall is arguably fecal”
A sentence that has likely never been spoken before you said it
Nice video! Which PC do you run game content?
It's a Frankenstein that I made from spare parts 😂
@@Rekowcski I see hahah
I love these videos and I love your snark 😂
Oh I get really snarky in this one 😜
I NEVER realized how many times they use that ONE book case. I now hate it. Also at 20:40 I love how there is a rainbow in the video that makes you look like you are at the end of it
They could have easily used another bookcase (without solid gold jungle animals) 100 times and no one would notice
Your background music at the beginning - Sims 1 or 2?
Always Sims 1
I'd never noticed those weird roofs
Now it’s all I notice :|
@Rekowcski The Roofs are supposed to be Dutch Gables that you see on barns.
You're right, and now I notice that one or two of the houses make the hipped part 1 tile smaller. It makes a whole lot more sense, i just don't like how they stick out on most of the houses :(
"The first thing I see are these curtains and I dont like them" I s2g you have the personality of a cat😂
I spend most of my time with my cat 🐈 haha
I love hidden springs! 💕💕
I think the terrain is one of the most beautiful. I love the green grass and mountains.
Will u make videos similar to this for Sims 4?
No I don't even have sims 4 installed :(
Based solely on my memory of some of the houses I kinda figured Hidden Springs would be a bit rough 😂
I remember moving into a starter house and it was ugly, but there is definitely a pretty mansion I remember that we haven’t seen yet
This is soo entertaining
Thank you :)
i think this world would've benefited from being like almost exclusively wood log/exposed stone cabins and such, the kind of houses you see in Granite Falls or Three Lakes. The houses that didn't fit that vibe were honestly sooo ugly. The worst of EA comes out when they can't stick to a theme (and when they make rooms bigger than 10x10 lol).
Once the series end are you going to do rate the empty houses?
I guess we will have to wait and see 👀
@@Rekowcski You know we want it hehehe
Hey, isn't that Liam guy from that one Sims 3 trailer? The one where he is a womaniser?
Oh my god I think you’re right 😂 I’ll have to look into it
17:14 ew it looks like the tile has moss on it or something 🥴
EA did it again :(
Still kinda peeved that they had the chance to make an enchanting and secretive lot to place the Fountain of Youth, for players to explore the map to find, and they just... didn't. For some reason.
But yeah, it's a good world for me to stick my noveau rich and goldigger sims in!
I only forgive them because this world has (I think) 80 lots haha. Small for a sims 3 world though so maybe you're right :p
I'm new here so I'm not aware of the deep lore yet. Someone tell me what that bookcase did to Rekowcski to create such lingering resentment. 😂
They just have horribly ugly golden giraffe statues on them which I don’t think is very realistic or pretty 😂 just a simple 1 tile bookshelf is all you need for a sims house haha
Rekowcski lore - I love it.
Beautiful world but wow… those houses hurt my eyes….
Mine too but I think we have some pretty mansions left for the second part.
Hidden Springs is a pretty world, but I always find it a little bit dull to actually play.
I love sims 2 for charm and gameplay, and 3 for building and styling. 4 was kind of the worst of both worlds.
I can admit I play more Sims 2 than any other sims game... combined :x hahah
11:28 it is a great palette but the floor is what ruins it for me. Too dark and woody, it washes out the good part of the tile colors.
yes I agree, there were several houses with that floor in the bathrooms and I was not a fan
We may have different tastes, but I find Ponderosa Place HORRENDOUS. Is big, empty and the floorplan is weird, at least for me.
About the roofs, EA tried to emulate the roofs from rural houses of Germany and other central european countries. But.....they did it wrong, very wrong...
Omg those roof details were NOT done properly lol. I didnt recognize it, because it doesn't even look like what it's trying to be. Ive been to Germany a few times, I now see exactly what they *tried* to do. hahah
That's good, I just want you to look at it for yourself. There has to be some crazy person out there who loves EA's green bathrooms/kitchens, they can go live in Sunset Valley without me haha
I’ll be honest I love all of these houses and the sims who own them. I think it’s because we had to deal with the sims 4 for the past 10 years and in these houses they are mostly furnished. No missing toilets. No missing doors. Besides a lot of gyms the houses are diverse and idk sims 4 is horrid. Compared to sims 4 these houses are so much better lol.
i can barely look at the sims 4 :( hahah
I love playing a gold digger in this world, so many options
I think I’ve ONLY played gold diggers here ... haha. Extra points if you can get the vanderbergs divorced haha
I want sims 3 but updated for sims 5:(
i think we all do :( but instead it's gonna be Sims Shadow Legends lol
die sims 3 made me laugh
Hidden Springs is my favorite world to play in, but the architecture is definitely one of the worst in The Sims 3. I always build my own houses here
I have been building my own houses for like 20 years so I am always shocked to see some of the things that EA included.
Hidden Springs is a beautiful world for sure but it do has some ugly houses, tbh. I agree with your ratings..
I hope part 2 is going to give us something good ...
no wonder these builds are ugly theyre for rich people!!!!!
That explains everything ... they simply have money but no style
I don't think I've ever seen so many weird shells in one world 🥲🥲
They took Pottery Barn too literally
I love Hidden Springs the most.
