Are the Sims 3 Seasons and Sims 3 Generations Worth Buying in 2021?

@Lola18790 Seasons is the second-most-demanding pack, after Pets, and having it installed may cause more performance issues. On the other hand, while I've seen a lot of complaints about Pets from Mac users running the 64-bit version, I haven't seen much about Seasons causing lag. So it may not have much of an effect for you.
The pack's content is highly popular, with many people saying they'd never want to play without Seasons in place. I think there are very few people whose computers can run it who choose not to.
Seasons does also come with an annoying graphics issue, namely that when the snow depth is greater than zero, snowy roads show through buildings:
Generations is a mild pack and shouldn't cause any lag or other problems with performance. It's also one of the lower-rated expansions overall—many people think it doesn't have enough content for a full EP. (It has a lot more than Sims 4 EPs do though.) Other people like it a lot, so it's more a matter of taste. If you used to like it when you played before, you should still like it now, and it certainly has a lot of fun elements for family play.
