Posted in another thread but my perspective is likely going to sound weird.
I have very little interest in the theme as advertised so far. Rural Euro-centric stuff just doesn't tend to appeal to me. But I do expect to be able to use a some CAS and probably more build items from it.
That said. I'm all for buying it right away because I'm still in the 'honeymoon phase' when it comes to the Sims 4 and I've liked everything I've bought so far. Plus it is almost certain to have a new world with at least one lot I can build on (I'd rate the odds of this at just shy of 100%, there's a chance the planet gets vacuumed up by a black hole by next Tuesday, and there's a chance it won't have a new world - but neither is likely). And new lots to build on is something I'm obsessed with. I just picked buying Island Living over University because of a raw count of the number of residential lots despite my theme preference going the other way...
On the other hand I suspect the more negative a review someone like that Carl guy can give for it, the more I will like it. And this looks like one he would like - so maybe I won't like it.
But in general, I'm at a point right now where anything new just gets bought. That will wear off in time. If this was another Star Wars pack I might have a different answer - too far off from the norm of play for me. But even though I'm not into rural, I can still see my sims getting value out of it.
