I joined The Sims Forum just now so I could AGREE and post how upsetting it is on spending the amount of money we do for an expansion pack this ridiculous. I have been playing the sims since the beginning. And this is the first time I feel like they've slapped their fan's in the face with such a sad expansion. We have seen what they are capable of producing, yet this is what we receive? Three affordable lots and three higher class lots? TONS of blank space? There's beaches but no lots on them? This expansion had so much potential to be exciting but it's nothing but a complete dud. That costs WAY too much. Glad it was on sale when I purchased but I still feel duped.
I guess I should have known it was only downhill from here when the Pets expansion just lets them free roam with no real interaction.
I don't know who they let go, but someone in the sims department needs to come back and make the games actually worth while again.
