About a year or so later after the release of Barnacle Bay, The Sims Store Team will release it’s second store World in just a few days. The Polish Sims 3 Facebook Page has created an event page for Hidden Springs. There’s a description of the new world also includes the price. Are you ready for it? Hidden Springs will cost 2,500 SimPoints. That’s more SP than Barnacle Bay cost when it was first released and more than it currently cost.
For players waiting for a new world where the discoveries are new places, new faces, and the secret of eternal youth.
Celebrities and rich people are rushing to Magic sources, seeking rest and escape from everyday life. Many of them can not resist gossip about the miraculous healing powers, hidden in forests and springs. Some residents living in the forest are very mysterious and seem to be zielonkawi. Is it entangled in magic?
Being in the Magic Sources, you can visit the beautiful lake, relax in the luxurious spa, skiing, hide in the woods, and even discover the ancient secrets of the Museum of Witchcraft and Unexplained things. Are sure to find something for themselves.
Available only in The Sims Store: http://pl.store.thesims3.com/
Price: 2.500 SimPoints
…. Seriously? What a rip off!
Two words: Daily Deal. I’m not paying full price.
2500 sp is about $25 right? That’s more than a stuff pack. O_O
Oh yeah… it kinda does remind me of that too, now I’m imagining everything covered in snow 🙂 what a sight!
Google can’t translate “zielonkawi”. Hm. Zielonkawi = greeny 🙂
Wow, that’s way too high. You can almost buy a whole EP for that amount. What happened to it being only 1000 points?
Well, it’s official. I’m making my own mountain-ish resort town. With a non-rabbit hole spa.
Since their work was considered so good and people were like oh my god maybe that’s why the price went up or it could just be the economy. Maybe we should have said it was ugly when they first announced it and maybe the price would have been lower lol.
Personally, it doesn’t bother me. Once i’m able to buy a new PC, i will get this. Maybe by then i might be able to catch it on sale. Either way, i’m still gonna buy it. Maybe because it reminds me of Three Lakes from The Sims 2: Bon Voyage.
EA should be ashamed of themselves for asking this ridiculously high price.
Well that’s EA for you. Take a reasonable price (in this case 2000) and overprice it. That’s how it is with the store in general.
2500 SP…Ouch! That hurts .. 🙁 It won’t be the end of me if I get this, but still, why oh why do I feel like I’m being ripped off everytime I buy something sim-related at full price? …
Gotta love the discounts and Daily Deals …
This is my post! O_________o http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/210/418345.page
LOL With that you wrote 😀
Now that is a massive rip-off! what like minded people would pay for that. Im lucky I had Barnacle Bay gifted to me.
EA have just put off loads of potential sales. If they made it like 1000, 1500 or 2000 at the max, more people would buy the thing hence making more profit! Not the other way around, put the price at a high price and less people buy.
WTF That’s really expensive >:(
Yikes! I honestly think EA should’ve reconsidered on this one. That’s kinda high considering the only “new” thing we’re getting is a magic fountain.
It’s not pricey at all, in my opinion, especially knowing some of the things it includes. A whole neighborhood for one, sims to fill out that neighborhood, new objects/design of the spa rabbithole.
A stuff pack obviously comes with redesigns of the same items already in game for $20 but a new world and new objects and new sims to meet is definitely worth $25 if that’s what one likes. Actually you get more gameplay out of a new world plus extra than a stuff pack so I’ll never understand the comparison between the two. Regardless whether the price is the same or a bit more, one gets more out of a new world than a stuff pack obviously. Hence they both serve two different purposes.
Anyway it looks very nice but I will not be getting it any time soon. As I will wait and see if it comes out in retail stores like BB and perhaps there will be more perks to add to it.
EA are money-grubbing sods, as far as I’m concerned. No way am I paying that much for a downloadable town. Are they insane?
