What pack should I get?

I recently got back into The Sims 3 but I'm missing some essential packs. Which one should I get? I have World Adventures, Late Night, and Generations and I'm mostly a realism oriented player.
  • Ambitions just for the sheer amount of interactive stuff and things to do.

    Just one thing only from this expansion alone branches into 3 cool new awesome gameplay aditions.


    Inventor you can make

    A miner machine which lets you dig for treasure and can make warp holes and dimensional portals.(I use this some games as a career,I set a max amount of finds/digs per day and only live off my luck or lack of)

    A time machine you enter which adds a rabbit hole story that has many effects from getting new items and clothing to having that innocent woohoo in the future or past come back to bite you when you return from your trip and a kid follows you back.(Yes it is your kid)

    A simbot :o different from plumbots from ITF they are very human in nature needing no trait chips and are just awesome.


    Plus 2 of the above can be purchased just by finding them in the consignment shop no need to even be an inventor if your story takes a different route.The Time machine and miner can be bought (I love the miner) :p

    I would often play just the base game and stuff packs with store content on my laptop and not add the stress of any EP to it. Ambitions was the EP I always missed the most.

  • I picked other and it would be world adventures because of the travel. Adds so much fun and potential to your sims lives.
    I definitely agree with @KatyFernlily about all of them, eventually.
  • I started with just the base game and university, and I ended up only playing in the university town once- it's hard to be successful in classes and still have fun at school, and the university is so far removed from your town. I also wasn't a huge fan of the dorm or any of the other students. I didn't even finish their degree. I just had to get out of there!

    I voted for seasons because I love the holidays and the idea of decorating lots differently for each season. I also like how much the world changes through the year-- what can I say, I'm all about the scenery!
  • I feel the same as @bekkasan and @KatyFernlily! :) All of them of course! I <3 Sims 3!

    I voted Seasons. I mainly play legacies and they just wouldn't be the same without weather and the holidays.
