    And a new world too.
    From what is sounds like, possible worth it.
    However in the UK it doesn't sound worth £20/$31.

    I've asked this before but can't remember where :( (hope you don't mind me asking) but are there any prepaid cards for origin as I don't want to put my card details on there, I hope so otherwise I won't be buying them :(

    You can untick a box at the billing process to say that you do not want EA to store your details. There are also game cards for origin that you can buy in store if you want.

    If it converted well to GBP i'd be fine with it. Not paying £20 though, that's for sure.

    I wouldnt pay £20 either.
    The Sims 4 is about Emotions and reduced CPU power consumption. Right?
    Also, complete agree with this.

    I think GP are better than SP, because it has more content and has interactions for the same price, glad they didn't raise the price because of that .. But at the same time, I don't think it should be 20$ if it's only going to bring in like 3 interactions ... I'd rather see a review of the GP first to see if it's even worth 20$

    @Batmansrobin Off topic, but I really did not like those weird videos, talking about your siggy ...

    The game packs are an excellent idea and at 20 bucks are definitely worth it over stuff packs. I love that they include actual game play.

    We don't know much about the GP, but we already know it's going to include more than just a couple interactions

    I will see this when a "Let's Play" or review is released.

    I think it is a great idea. Stuff packs were $20 and this seems to be adding more than a stuff pack did; so already a plus!

    is this replacing stuff packs?
  • AthenaOnyxAthenaOnyx Posts: 3,921 Member
    It seems a bit too good to be true... that's a lot for that price. It reminds me of LN, it sounded like that ep was going very involved but then nothing was fleshed out. I'm going to wait to see the reviews. Plus, camping isn't something my sims are really that in to.

    No it's replaceig the store

    With this new art style and no create-a-style, I doubt I would by stuff packs, as adding more of the same doesn't help me.
    Well, I would buy clothes, since I don't have issue with it.

    I am mainly interested in game play. The objects in the packs support the game play, so it will have value in that aspect.
    It looks like a smart decision by EA to me.

    My guess would be that they replacing both stuff packs and expansion packs with digital downloads called game packs. That way EA can fight piracy in a better way and at the same time keep all the profit instead of sharing it with other stores.

    There will still be expansions and stuff packs.

    I think it's a good idea, TS3 expansion and stuff packs were really overpriced here in Switzerland, so buying them with Origin (with Euro rather than Swiss Francs) would be cheaper, at least I hope so.

    Nor does it in Barbados. I'll end up paying $60 instead of the $40 I should be paying. That is, I'll end up paying US$30.

    Personally, I think it's a move in the right direction compared to the TS3 Store.

    I get the feeling there will not be Stuff packs if you look at Grant Rodiek's Twitter.
