Does anybody just play with the Sims 4 base game? Anybody?

I held off on packs for quite a while, had gotten bored with the game, but then found a challenge that worked with me. Then I was sucked in and enjoyed the game, with each new pack just adding to my enjoyment. I think you can get bored with any game, either with no packs or all the packs. Just depends on how you play it. For me, it took the Decades Challenge (combined with my love of history) to pull me back into the game.
