Not buying it. I don't buy games for the views - especially fake views on backdrops. I buy game for the gameplay and being able to play my favorite Sims in them. As much as I wanted a fame pack - if they cannot deliver me room to move my Sim there it is not worth my 40 bucks. Not when we get 5 lots for 20 bucks and indepth gameplay - why would I pay 40 bucks for 6 lots - 4 of which have sims in them, with indepth gameplay. It is not even realistic for a Sim seeking fame and just starting out to commute to Hollywood - never mind them not having rooming houses, cheap motel room rentals, or at least apartments.

Nope for the first time ever in my 19 years of playing and buying Sims game I am not buying this pack - that tells you how serious I am about them not delivering enough lots to this world in an expansion pack. As it was this whole game has lacked lots - now they are getting utterly ridiculous - and I just cannot support this or this excuse any longer. Never mind when they tell you - Performance issues if they added more lots and we all know in this game no matter how many lots you have the game just loads one lot at a time and all that fakery.

I am not going to just sit here and complain - as that has gotten us no where for 4 years - now has it? If they can't deliver even lots - what will they delete next time?

I think if we say things that we are not happy about it they have to do something about that. Terrain tool is coming so its just cuz many people request that and make it happen. Atleast i hope they would fix/ be more carefull in future about things they do or left out from packs. Agree whit that fakery, i watch sims 4 in twitch and gurus show and were happy about that fake highway, i mean yeah its fine but it dosn't bring anything ingame and if we get just 3 lots in that area just because they did want add as many fake deco items to make that world look alive that they fail for doing that.

It's a game - not a movie where lots of green screen FX is needed to bring a movie to life - but a game where the characters we play bring the game to life - where the content the characters need interacts with the characters and is not just movie level cinema affects. When visuals are more important than play factors - those devs maybe needs to go work on movies - especially when they start sacrificing play factors for so many visual effects and then have the nerve to tell us there are performance issues to add 3- or 4 more totally blank lots - lots that only load when our characters are on that lot.

When the visual effects outweigh the play factor of an expansion pack that is supposed to expand the games play-ability it become hardly more than an interactive movie - where nothing is reality in a game that is supposed to be about life. Beauty gets old quick when all you can do is look at it - when you just wanted to PLAY a game. Ironically your sims doesn't see it - YOU do. Your Sims does not interact with it in no form or manner. So tell me what is the point of us sacrificing true game play for all that rather useless FX and on top of it get even less livable lots for our characters to even live in that so call beautiful world? What is this really? Hardly more than an slightly interactive movie - as the fx keeps looping and running even if you the so called player does nothing at all. No wonder your Sims stands there doing nothing when you tell them to do anything.There nothing left for them to do but walk around in a world they cannot even interact with.

When background become the focus and outweighs the gameplay - it is no longer really a game.
