Eco lifestyle : turn off NAP. Does it work?

@CK213 sounds like a real pain to uninstall everything for just one pack. It is messages like these that make me doubt to get this pack. Just out of curiosity, did you try to disable NAPs before giving up on the pack entirely?

Yeah, I disabled the NAPs, went through all my neighborhoods to set them to something I could tolerate.
However, I believe I left the tech oriented NAP on for my University world. If not that one, than something else that spawned Future cubes in my sim's inventories. A ridiculous amount of them that gave them about 90,000 simoleons for getting rid of them. I probably should of recycled them, if that's possible.

With what was going on with other issues like odd routing and ignoring nearby sinks to go upstairs to watch dishes, I was fed up with The Sims 4 altogether and Rage Uninstalled it. >:)

I said the only thing that would make me install it again is if they improved traits and socialization.
A week later they announced Snowy Escape, Lifestyles, and Sentiments. :p

So here I am, back again, only without Eco Lifestyle.
I haven't bought Snowy Escape yet. I am just playing my game to see how I like the new features from the patch and playing without Eco Lifestyle. It has been enjoyable so far, although Uni is a bit boring in general. I do like the sentiments though.

I would only get this pack if it had something extremely valuable to me despite some of the silly NAPs.
For myself, I did not like the world. It felt too isolated with all the fake homes so close by.
I really don't need the eco living game play and environmental effects. The crafting was okay, but I don't need that either.
The juice drinks don't even compare to TS3's nectar making. The only thing I valued from this pack was the community spaces, but that's not enough to be bothered with the rest of it. It's a waste of CPU time for me.
