I am enjoying it way more than I expected but there are some aspects that grind my gears.
Some might seem minor but are huge for me, for example, seeing my sims freaking out because of famous sims when I am playing another household. It doesn't suit most of my sims to do that and I really dislike to see them pass out because of Baby Ariel.
For example, the sim in the picture here, he would never ever freak out for any celebrity. He is a free spirited sim that grew up homeless and now has a nice family and likes to live his life off the radar and mostly off the grid. He will never ever care about any celebrity and yet, the game picks him to do it. I wish our played sims wouldn't get randomly selected for such things. It is so out of character.

I don't care to see the other townies because I evicted them all and don't play them but I really dislike my stories being broken by the game.
I am not a fan of the new world at all either and I think I will grow tired of the acting career pretty quickly.
The lounges and awards ceremonies are plain sad since it's only like 8 sims in the lot.
I don't want every sim to freak out over every celebrity.
But it is a very dynamic and fun pack overall, with great aditions to gampelay and surprisingly fresh ideas and attention to detail.
So for what it is, it gets a thumbs up from me. We'll see how it holds up over time.
