Ngl these builds look like average household income mid european houses
Legit
i think this world exemplified the problem with EA builds they never figured out how to solve: when a house is small, they know what to put, they know how much space is needed to avoid routing issues and they can control the style and palette. The moment a house is just ever so slightly bigger, hallways, bedrooms, bathrooms and so on become HUGE and completely empty, like they ran out of things to put in. In Hidden Springs, cabins are gorgeous if only a bit simplistic, but overall coherent, where the mansions have like half of their interior space be completely wasted and empty.
I think you are absolutely right, once the house gets too big they decide to make a 4x10 hallway or something else bulky that ends up being to big, open and empty :(
I feel like that applies to real life too lmao. I watch a lot of luxury house tours, and owners and architects just put the weirdest details, or theres so much space that no one knows what to do with it
That reminds me, does Sims 3 has option to rent free beds to other sims? Like in Sims 4. It was almost a decade i played 3.
So, that way we could split big rooms for renters, and maybe leave common rooms as hub for everyone.
A few years ago i saw custom apartment builds for Late Night, this way main family can just have blacked out renter space without scaling whole building down.
Anyway, for me any lot bigger than 40x40 is a curse😢
Honestly same
A new year and you're blowing up with 10k subscribers! I hope your channel gets more attention, you're one of those hidden gems with the content you put out.
One year ago I had 300 subscribers :x
Hidden Springs is totally my favorite Sims 3 world I am so glad to see it redeem itself in your eyes this episode😄😄 I just love the rustic area of it so much and the overall color palette of the world is so pleasing!! The green that they used for grass here is literally therapeutic
I'm addicted to these videos I have been binge watching for days
Omg that's hours of me screaming at EA! :P
9:15 that kitchen is giving off major sephora vibes 💄
👄💄
I wanted to live in the Sims 3 world as a kid, but so far I only have a green bathroom
Still can't believe how much big were The Sims 3 world. Just wow.
Some Sims 3 worlds have nearly 100 lots in total :S
The thing that I love about your videos is that you try your best to appreciate the work, effort, and creativity that was put into a house even though it might not look so appealing, ALSO CONGRATS ON 10K!!! DONT STOP PLEASE
I appreciate that!
You should do like another series where you go back to these worlds and spend a max of 10-15 minutes per lot fixing some of the most egregious errors. Could even be in streams. I think it’d be pretty cool.
I am quickly becoming addicted to your EA build critiques!! They are funny, honest and just a joy.
I love Hidden Springs so much! It reminds me of a childhood local I went to and so I obviously bought it with Monte Vista lmao. I love getting my sims to live in the rustic area
I kind of want a houseboat in Hidden Springs
I was binge watching your build reviews last night and when I woke up I saw you uploaded a new one! Maybe if I’d stayed awake for a little longer lol
I was weirdly thinking about if we were going to get part two to this today then this video pops up! Haha
I remember when The Sims Daily site was up and running and all of us members decided to renovate this world. I think we finished over 30 lots - mostly community - before we lost interest. Some were really beautiful. Don't think any of us got around to tackling that royal residence, although I did build an old castle up on one of the mountains. (It was supposed to be the royal family's ancestral home that they were booted out of during some war). We styled our builds on what you'd expect to see in an Alpine world, since most of us thought it was what EA had been going for.
I see that your love for green is still going strong. Agree with everything you said. I would love to see the same kind of videos but with the empty houses. Much love you are amazing.
Thank you and yes haha. I think there are fewer empty houses... so maybe to make up for the time we can fix the ugliest of the starters or something too.
Hidden Springs is my absolute favorite world. I have tried to play in other worlds but I always end up here. There is just something special about this world build.
I feel the same way about lucky Palms and midnight hollow. I keep getting drawn back
finally i able to catch up tour videos after 2 weeks of hectic end of semester! congrats for the 10k subs rek!
Obviously the guy from the last house is spying on the lady in the hot pink house.
How could you give that perfect little cabin a 7?!?!?!? It was a 9.5.
Congrats on 10k! Also I personally am in love with the orange kitchen at 14:39. Does that make me… tasteless? 💀
Well yesterday I made a purple kitchen in Sims 2 so perhaps I am also guilty.
I have lived in the desert all my life so I was always interested in the green worlds in the sims franchise, hidden springs is one of the cutest green worlds for sure. Idk about those builds though😂
Getting to the end of videos on ugly EA builds... Oh NO!!!! Whatever will we do??? lol Gratz on the 10k subscribers. Wishing you many, many more in the coming year. :)
Why not start reviewing empty lot locations or uninhabited houses?
Yes!! my favorite Creator and series 🥰 I think the ultimate home should be a craftsman style house. I have to play in hidden springs more cause I can see my sims breaking the bank with some of these sims 😂😂.
I love your channel. OG sims player as well. Hope to catch you live soon!!
Congratulations on 10K subscribers!! Love your humor!
🎉thank you!!!
your channel deserves way more subs ur iconic
"Just because its real doesnt mean I like it."
Me towards real life American suburbian cookie cutter homes.
But fr. I cannot play in this world without redoing ALL the builds. _and there are a lot of lots_
I'm not a fan of American style anything lol, but ESPECIALLY suburbia. I could be a millionaire and I would never live in one of those ugly plastic mcmansions
I think that changing height of the roof came later in game. Not sure, but separate height for each roof piece was definietly in later update, near 3 or 4th expansion packs, from what I recall. That's why the roofs might be so massive in this world. It was second one in the store, just after Barnacle Bay.
Can't tell you how many times I run to catch up and unwind with your videos. Style Center is the 1 house where I was impressed by how much effort was made and I use this house in several different worlds when I need something for a creative sim, I do tweak it a bit. But someone really tried and it shows. Hope you are doing well with your recent loss. 😊
I'm glad I can be a safe place to go. You don't have to worry about me, I am not close with my family, the people I know and love are all still in my life
@@Rekowcski I hear you, me too. I've got a family of drug addicts and alcoholics. I'm the only one who graduated hs and went to college so I'm the 'stuck up b'. I ghosted them years ago and have a great family of true friends. ❤
We have EXACTLY the same background story :p they wanted me to work at a coffee shop and give them money. I went to university and graduated with honours, leaving behind a $15000 ATM receipt because I saved most of my 7 dollars an hour back in 2003-2007. If you have discord you can join my server, wetl talk about sims and life mostly discord.gg/jyJt7Nkh
@@Rekowcski ok! I will. I've never joined one before! I think I'd like yours
I have not played with Hidden Springs too much, and I too was a bit offput with the misaligned roofing. As for the the brown tops to the white, or off white bottoms with the high angled roofing, I think their idea was to go with a Swiss Chalet (or ski logde vibe). I do like that style, but I agree, they need to narrow their angles, especially when making their build 3 stories (even when the 3rd floor is just a makeshift illusionary floor, for outer aesthetics only.
Overall, Hidden Springs is filled with Lore (I am all about that), and with a few tweaks here amd there, I think this world could be superb. Have you seen any of the remakes of the worlds from the exchange? Some of them are truly breathtaking❣
I haven't downloaded any remodels off the exchange yet, but I know hidden springs is popular with simmers. You're right about the lore, lots of little cool things that you don't always notice, but for me I love the venderbergs being the royal family haha
Can you rate the pre made lots from the bin ?
Eyyyyy 10k rek!!!! Gg. I'd love to see you pick some of the worst houses and renovate them 👀
let's do it!
What’s wrong with stove and fridge next to each other ? 😑 In my country, especially in small apartments it’s a quite common thing 😑
That fountain of youth rolling your age back a single day was a scam. It makes me even less sorry for pirating their store content. It should have rolled you back an entire life stage, not a single day lol
It's nice to have a Simmer who knows something about architecture.
Full disclosure I am making it up as I go
@@Rekowcski Aren't we all? ❤
Love your reviews as always !!!
Will we be reviewing unoccupied houses in the worlds? 😊
I think that will be a good way to circle back through the worlds again, but I'll take a break before that, I think I'm running out of EA jokes/insults haha
@@Rekowcski Hahahahha no worries! No matter the content you put out I'll still defo watch 💗
Lmfaooo he may as well be a loaner with those traits?! 😂😂😂🤣🤣
ill never grow tired of sims 3 content in 2023 !
The houses with the stucco siding and the wood top half is called tutored homes
Style centre is the epitome of 2010😭
The haircut looks great! I'm so sad this series is coming to an end. Wanna do it for TS2? LOL
I would do Sims 4 but idk how to review such a small number of houses per world... :(
@@Rekowcski Maybe you can do a review and rebuild it how you would wanna see it?
does the discord still exist?? also, great video!! i’m gonna be so sad when you’re out of worlds 😢
I have had this thought for a long time (I am no builder and hate CAS too) anyhow. I don't think that the EA builds were designed to look "good" for visiting, and just manageable until the player decides to do them up if/when they play in them. Like the dining table etc might just be placeholders and for use if the player decides to visit that families home.
I think you're right. The starter homes are definitely ugly on purpose, in ever game. It makes you NEED to build. But the townie houses? I think they should be good ok their own... And SOMETIMES EA can do it lol
@@Rekowcski Alot of people still play the townies to start though, so a junky house makes sense, even for them.
@@rosameryrojas-delcerro1059 I often play townies only, I am not good at making sims. When I make a sim it's usually a caliente or goth
@@Rekowcski I suck at building and CAS too, but the again, I don't really care what sims, or the houses look like, I just plunk what they need somewhere and move on.🤣
10k YESSS 👏🏻
move over simsie 😅
Sustainable Oasis looks really nice from the outside, it would look good as nice retreat place for vacation like a B&B.
Is it true about the fountain of youth in Hidden Springs? did you found it in the game Reko?
I haven't found it in the world, but I've seen it in the game so I know it's real haja
@@Rekowcski oh great! i guess they can turn pale green if the sims drink the water, maybe?
Little old lady who lives in a Shue.
i love it haha
That was wretched wallpaper. I say that as a person who loves bright colors. Maybe in some different colors (like a cream or tan background, dark green leaves and aqua and white flowers) it might be nice, but lime jello baby poo with dog piss and pink play-dough? Eh. No.
I hope y'all realize that EA isn't making bad builds on accident and instead doing them on purpose. If they made them grand and glamorous you wouldn't have any initiative to renovate them and make them better through out your playthrough. EA is not dumb and knows how to suck people in to make people put more time and effort into again renovating their builds. It sure is a trick though lol
The little houses are much nicer in this world
OMG SHORT HAIRRRRR
👴
Queen of shaved heads

AT LAST

I totally understand
