UPDATE: The culprit is the "for rent" expansion pack. It's very unfortunate as I do enjoy the pack but something about having it installed (I suspect it may be the new rental lot type) it just breaks the game. I do hope that this issue gets fixed as I have lost a few lots due to the uninstall of the pack. It's frustrating and I recommend that the team look into the pack a bit deeper as I do not appear to be alone in this issue. I'm extremely disheartened by the sims teams lack of care on their new packs as of late.
I would honestly rather wait a few more weeks or months for a pack rather than have it earlier and riddled with issues. We fork out £35 apiece for these packs so I would like them to at least work and not break the game. Overall a very frustrating experience as I've been trying to sort this out all day. Trying to be fair but honestly for the price point the severe lack of care and attention put into the packs marketed feature is incredibly insulting.
Sorry for becoming ranty towards the end. If anyone else comes across this issue just delete the pack and you'll be fine.
There is a known issue where worlds can corrupt if you put certain (rental) lots down but that hasn't affected all worlds so far (unless maybe if you put rental lots in all the worlds) and it usually doesn't' affect new saves but you do need to turn off the game in between loading.
