@Pugslover4, @moonandsixpens, Thank you<3
@bobyo2001, It's the only thing I really like about WA, the three pretty worlds. They're kinda useless unless you're an adventurer though.
Not true. Now that all the store, SP and EP content have been released, all the WA worlds can become proper vacation destinations. Especially if you consider the Seasons and IP EPs which added resorts, seasons, R&R style sandbox activities like sunbathing anywhere, long needed water sport activities, dive lots, ability to create mystery islands features etc. Combine these EP features with WA ones and you now get the ability to let your sims take a working vacation. Or a real vacation where they pamper themselves in luxury.
Now I can have a workaholic tomb raiding sim take care of a tomb raiding business opportunity, while their family frolics and sunbathes on the sun kissed beaches in Al Simhara.
Or enjoy a cultural exchange with native sims at the local market in Shang Simla, while a teen sim in the family enters the prestigeous national Sim Fu tournament.
Or one of my poor and serious gardening/nectar connosieur sims wins the SV lottery. So they can finally travel to Les Champs where they learn the true art of nectar making exotic pomgranate & pomelo wine (which they got from previous vacation to other WA worlds). Or my culinary sims learning secret family recipes from other native Les Champs sims. Meanwhile the rest of their family is enjoying the local cusine at the bistro, or the sights and sounds at the Dojo. Or the nightlife at a Les Champ nightclub. :)
I've still yet to complete all the achievements in all WA worlds btw. Or make my Uni sims adventure and take more frequent spring breaks to store worlds like ST and LP. And I've yet to send any of my sims visit the future with ITF to date. There is so much other content I've yet to explore from all the EPs/SPs.
There is no end to the level of fun things your sims can do while vacationing in WA-- or better yet--other custom worlds like Oahu, Venice, or the London Project. You're only limited by your creativity and/or your gaming style. If you're an achievement gamer, WA worlds will become boring real fast. But if you're a sandbox gamer, then your approach playing WA (and other custom/store worlds) is not about the destination, but the journey :)
