Which TS3 expansion do you like best?

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? :)

    Depends: Clothing/furniture wise=Island Paradise all the way. But for gameplay, my first pack was my absolute favorite: Ambitions. The world it came with is perfect for several of my gameplays, the careers are fun and I use the self-employment system in EVERY save I have. I just love it and use it consistently :)


    Yeah I do love how you can be self-employed with ambitions. That is definitely one of the features I hated the most with TS4's Get To Work. My sim earns like a few thousand a day in royalties from her books, but officially, she's unemployed...???? #getsangryalloveragain
    I really think (from what I know) that ambitions was done a LOT better, for the fact that it's kinda the same principle.
  • I really like the Supernatural expansion, as it was the first one I got for Sims 3. I'm a huge fan of magic and all that, and I like having it in my Sims game.

    I also enjoy Ambitions, Late Night, Seasons, University Life, and Island Paradise. The others I just think are eh (Generations and Pets) or flat-out garbage (WA and Showtime.)

    Exactly! I would love the self-employment back. Even if it doesn't have the multiple levels like Ambitions had, just being able to keep my Ambitious Sims happy would be good. Or if being a store/restaurant owner being listed as a career would fit in even better. Seems like a simple thing to include and I'm not sure why that wasn't included :/
  • Arr yes @ThePinkBookGirl that one I understand even less. Why is a restaurant / retail owner listed as "unemployed" or "stay-at-home mom"?!? It makes no sense :s I really hope they'll include it at some point (and like you I can't understand one bit how they could've forgotten to add it in the first place).
  • Mine is Seasons, I just feel like it added so much to the game. I hate it is always nice in the Sims 4.
