Yes, the fun doesn't last long for them because they rush to finish the aspirations, skills, careers, etc. and go through all the gameplay a new pack offers. That's actually a wrong way to play a sandbox game because the Sims is not a game you finish. It's like you get a bucket and a spade at the beach and you fill up the bucket with sand and say you're done, when in fact you're meant to use the bucket to create sand castles.
There is no right or wrong way to play a sandbox game.
Some people don’t want to play with the bucket or build a sandcastle. They just want to roll in the sand. Other people bury treasure in the sand. Or their friend. Some like making a little zen garden.
For some folks the sandbox just happens to be too small, so they get annoyed and leave or hope they get a bigger one. Some folks do not like the texture of the sand, because it is not solid enough to drive their little dinky cars around. For others it’s perfect, because it works great with the stout little loader truck that they got.
There are many things one can do in sandbox. If that particular sandbox isn’t right for them, there is little left to do, except maybe for trying and finding other ways to play in it.
