@AprilTheSimmer96 , that is a hard one! 🤨 I love both.💗
I'm obsessed with having my Sims learn the recipes from the food stalls (though they put on a lot of weight , so for Sims that I don't plan on being heavier, I have to use the ice cream machine from Cool Kitchen Stuff and make the Taste of Diet ice cream to keep them at their original size. I like some variety in my Sim's bodies, but I want most of them to learn the recipies so the ice cream comes in handy! )
I also love the bright colors that come in this pack, and the festivals are a lot of fun!
On the other hand, I love the new plants you can collect in Outdoor retreat, the campfires, the people dressed as bears, and the scenery in Granite Falls!😍 And the Cloud gaze and star gaze interactions are a great way to build friendship quickly! 🙌 And trying to find the Hermit's house for the first time was fun!
I will say that an Expansion Pack (Like City Living) has more stuff in it than a Game Pack (Like Outdoor Retreat), but that also means that EPs are more expensive than GPs.
i guess it all depends of if you feel like city gameplay or nature gameplay! 😉
