This isn't supposed to be a feedback thread which is why I thought it would fit into this category better than in the feedback section. It's not necessarily supposed to be about which addons you like or dislike and why but more so about which addons you regret spending your money on and why.I for example regret buying city living. I almost never play in San Myshuno. Granted, I don't really like big cities to begin with and probably should've known better but I bought it because I thought I'd at least enjoy the smaller apartments in the spice district. The truth is however that I barely play with them because I can't change the window placement and I'm a perfectionist when it comes to that sort of thing. As for the clothing items and festivals, while they're nice to have I don't think I wouldn't miss them much if I didn't buy the addon. I don't regret any of my other purchases, I use the other packs all the time. It's just city living that I regret buying. Do you regret buying an addon?

Nope. Everything adds something to the game. But it's funny you mention CL, though. That happens to be my favorite...lol.

I regret nothing. There are some packs I use less than others, but they all add something to my game.

I only buy the packs that interest me, in the moment I don't regret buying any pack I have purchased, but in the future I can see myself regretting buying the vampire pack because although it's fun and interesting now to play with vampires, in the future I might be over them, also in terms of build and buy mode objects I do like the cracks and damaged wall decals, but the build/buy mode objects also CAS items don't interest me unless I'm making a specific sim/specific build, so I can't see myself using those objects on a regular basis.

EPs / GPs / SPs you regret buying?

I deeply regret buying 'city living' even though I bought it at a discounted price.
I think it was not worth paying for even the discounted price. I just hate the fact that we cannot build apartments from scratch.

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.

Wow, you regret buying many of what you bought xD

No matter how many packs we feel that we shouldn't have bought, this feeling sucks!

I have every pack, and although I don't like absolutely every last item in them, I don't regret the purchases. There's enough stuff in all of them I enjoy and appreciate - although I'm with you on San Myshuno itself: it's not really my bag. I'm on my nth rebuild of Newcrest though, after having spent the last year messing about in Windenburg (about four times over).

The only thing I regret buying are some Store items for Sims 3 that turned out to be ugly/unusable. As for packages: they all add to the whole experience so no, I don't regret buying them (3 nor 4; even the Katy Perry thing has items I wouldn't want to miss). I remember feeling a bit bummed out about Generations at one point. Then one day I had to uninstall the EP temporarily because of some bug. Then I realized what my game had lost by doing that, things I didn't want to miss for the world. So yeah, I think they all contribute something, even when people will always favour one package over the other.

I own everything and I don't regret anything. The only packs I dislike are get to work, luxury party and perfect patio. But even in those packs there are things I enjoy like retail, aliens, scientists, chocolate fountain and buffets, hot tubs and hairs etc.

I always investigate a pack thoroughly and contemplate and debate whether I really want it before buying, because I am relatively broke and don't want to waste my money. As a result, I don't have any regrets. I like and use stuff from every pack I've bought - one of the main things I use TS4 for, is building. I don't have many packs though, so it would be hard not to :lol: I have GT, GTW, Romantic Garden and DO. I still want to purchase Vintage Glam and Vampires though, but my laptop is currently swiftly dying and I will have to buy a new one first.

My ONLY regret, though, is not waiting to buy TS4 base game on sale. $60 made a bit of a gaping abyss in my wallet.

I don't regret buying any packs but I think for 10$ stuff pack I should get more interesting items. Like Cool Kitchen Stuff, I really paid 10 bucks for an ice cream maker and no more other 'cool' kitchen things. :/

I don't hav any regrets, although I use certain ones more than others. I use the restaurants a lot bc I've always liked running a business & I like outdoor retreat because I always have fun with outdoors/gardening in the game.

I think probably the bowling one since it has such few buy mode items. :D Luxury Party would probably be my least fav if I actually bought it but I won it from a giveaway, so I can't say I regret buying it. LOL.
I don't regret buying any of them cuz they all add some content to the game, which is great, but Bowling Night is the one that was least worth it, ya know?

I really regret buying Bowling Stuff, it was SO lame. I was aware thar it adds practically nothing but bowling and I thought it's fine as long as bowling is well made, but it was not. I took my sims to bowl once and couldn't bother being there more than a few (real) minutes. Everything about it is so empty and boring.
