Thanks to the way Sims 4 divides differently, it's impossible to know what activity will come with what pack.
I can never work out what's so great about Open Worlds. What makes them so completely superior? Sure, less loading screens. Funny thing is on my computer each loading screen is less than twenty seconds while people with 10 year laptops complain of over a minute. Well, that's what happens when you play on min-specs. There's plenty you can blame on EA - like how SIms 3's engine only allows you one world per save - but you can't blame the speed of your computer on it.
Vacation Worlds are like World Adventures, but you can travel all the very different worlds anyway - as soon as Get Together came out you could go to a rave in the Bluffs or crazy themed parties, as soon as City Living came out there were four festivals to visit, etc. In fact to complete all your collections you NEED to visit all the worlds.
This personally really annoys me. If the world's could individually support all the features I would love ts4 world system. However, they can't and that bothers me as a builder, because each backdrop encourages one build style making my build space limited, and as a player, because the space between towns seems too large for each town to not support itself (immersion breaking).
I might be the minority here, but I do prefer 2 and 3 in regards to world's. 2 especially with it's ability to add multiple down towns in multiple styles was my favorite for world's. With ts2 downtowns you basically could set up something similar to ts4 and still add on to each world as you wanted/needed.
^^also genies came in showtime in ts3 :)
I agree on Sims 2's handling of worlds and being able to add all the subworlds one wants - and make each your own completely. My ideal Sims games was to have that feature plus Sims 3 fully open world design and to me would have been perfect.
Also - Thanks on the genie info - they are the only supernatural type I never played with - so I knew they were in the game, but didn't come in the Supernatural pack - but wasn't sure when they appeared. ST makes sense for them to come in that pack for sure.
