EPs / GPs / SPs you regret buying?

All I can say is that I do research each pack a lot more now than I ever have. I love the build/buy items in CL so that in itself was kinda worth it ( bummed that I didn't wait a couple of weeks for the 50% off sale ) but as far as gameplay I can do without it. Same goes for DineOut, I have no patience for the long wait being served so I never use restaurants.

Regret. No regret.

Disappointed ... one, cool kitchen.

I have all of the packs except Bowling and Vampires (and I am skipping them).

I regret the following: Vintage Glamour, Backyard, Romantic Garden, Movie Hangout and Luxury Party. So literally HALF.

Hm, I may hold off on buying stuff packs then.

My take on it...

Vintage Glamour: The butler is buggy.
Backyard: The bird feed is comical how bad it looks graphically. Also, the water slide is unrealistic and too large for home lots.
Romantic Garden: The wishing well was fun for 5 minutes, dassit.
Movie Hangout: I really paid $10 for a popcorn maker, smh.
Luxury Party: What is this again?! Exactly.

Thank you for the advice, I got Luxury Party (maybe?) for free and haven't really seen a difference in game whereas all my EPs, although I haven't played them thoroughly, add little elements to my game which I enjoy. I have to say, I'm not a fan of the whole stuff pack and smaller expansions; I much preferred having heavy add ons like in Sims 2. (Can't comment for 3 as I haven't played it)

I spared myself regret by NOT purchasing the vampire GP. I enjoy all of the other SPs/GPs/EPs, to date. While I'm not a huge fan of apartments or city living, per se, I do enjoy the added singing ability. I've yet to try out the 'Street Art' offered, but I will get to that. I only travel to San Myshuno for the festivals. Many of them are 'meh, but I've found one can get fresh tomatoes at the Spice Festival. I never fail to have my Sims harvest them and purchase the spices at the booth.

Yes, I'm aware this thread is for regrets. I just don't have any at the moment.

Not having regrets is better than having them :smiley: In fact I think it's nice that so many of you are happy with your purchases!

I don't regret buying any of the packs. I've bought I think 7/10 SPs and all the GPs and EPs. They all add to the game. I may end up not using one of the packs very much but I don't look back and feel remorse. Lately I've gotten more into building and using builds from the gallery, so the more packs, the better.

The only reason I'd have regret is if a pack made my game lag significantly or break, and that hasn't happened yet (yes, City Living works fine for me).

I have no regrets with TS4. I've been enjoying most of the content.

However, with TS3, I do regret buying Diesel Stuff a little. Looking back on it, it doesn't offer a lot of content that I personally cared for. Ah well. c': At least I never bought the Katy Perry SP. Now that would have been a true regret.

I wouldn't say I regret getting them but I could do without the Luxury Party and Cool Kitchen SPs.

It's not about the money, I'm trying not to overload my game. Plus the download time can be a bit heavy and I'm on a set amount of broadband each month.

I have got some use out of City Living but my laptop really can't handle the apartments, some of the festivals are lagging too. It's a shame, the apartments are really claustrophobic to me but I'd so love to see the mouses.

Overall, I expect I get some use out of every pack, but I'd be hard put to say what I got out of the SPs I mentioned.

Just to be a bit more specific - the Kitchen SP could have offered better fridges and stoves than those already in the game. That's what I'd expect - appliances that offered greater hunger satisfaction for less expense than the existing very expensive models but costlier than those in the 2,000 - 3,000 price range. But no, I still find myself with only one option for fridges and stoves until my Sims have earned a fortune.

I think the only pack I kinda regret buying was cool kitchen. My sims get addicted to the ice cream machine and that's all they ever want to eat. So I usually never have the ice cream machine in my house. I don't know if I use the clothes or build and buy items a lot or not.

Edit: But I really don't regret it that much. It was only 10 dollars.

My only regret is not waiting to get certain packs that went on sale not long after I just purchased them. In terms of content I'm happy to have everything that I've bought.
