So, I'm sure threads like these exist, but I was just curious: after all this time, which TS3 expansion do/did you use most in the end and why? :)

University Life as it gives me a good chance to work on a Sim and their future :smile:

I love them all, but Supernatural is the one I would not play without. :)

Honestly, I think World Adventures is the best expansion pack because it really added something almost completely new to the game that hadn't been done before. I mean, obviously vacations have been done in previous Sims games, but no where near the way and the detail it was done in this. I think it was a lot different than most of the other packs too because this one was really more focused on adventure and exploration, which isn't something common with the packs. I think it did a great job of adding a whole lot of content too. I think that you could also make an argument for Late Night also being the best too because of the cool, new, and different content it added that really hadn't been in the game beforehand. University Life is also up there.

I like the adventuring I just wish the other option was included.

Which TS3 expansion do you like best?

I'm so torn haha. I love Island Paradise, but also love Generations. I love Island Paradise because of the feeling of the expansion. Resorts, beaches, scuba diving, MERMAIDS! (whoot whoot). It kinda lets me go on vacation without leaving my house. Generations is nice though because it brought out a lot of family things that I love. The other expansions are nice and all but these two personally are my favorite because they're different than Sims 1 and 2 and unique to Sims 3 =]

If I really had to choose, because there are several at the top of my list, but at the very top would be Generations. The reason being it is something I feel should have been added in the base game, but that aside, the reason being how it adds so much for for each of the age groups.

I never got University Life or Ambitions, but I think I'll add them to my collection one day (I really wish those EPs were a bit cheaper haha). But yes, it's so hard to choose! Every EP I did try was amazing. Obviously my one true EP <3 would have to be Generations as it adds just about the right level of realism to the game .. But then again, without Seasons I wouldn't be able to take screenshots like this:

I really love the fall season, IRL just as much as in the game :D

So I see Supernatural didn't get a lot of attention yet. Any reason why you liked this less? I never really played it and/or could convince myself to try it ... Good choice maybe? ;)

I can't say I've used any of them more than others. Now I have NRAAS mods I am back into family play because I can fix most bugs with an NRAAS mod.

I have all the occult types in most of my games, I use many features of all of the other Expansions and Stuff Packs and store content.
