What are your favorite and least favorite packs? Be sure to include at least one for each type! Feel free to update as more packs are added. Favorite expansion: Get together. I cannot live without the clubs and I am in love with the build buy stuff and the world. Least favorite expansion: Get to work. I like the concept but it feels so incredibly half baked to me and it's way too linear. Favorite gamepack: Dine out. I still get excited playing restaurants as I was day 1, I love then so much. Least favorite game pack: Outdoor retreat. I don't dislike it at all, it's just my least used out of them all. Favorite stuff pack: Movie hangout or cool kitchen. Can't decide, I love them both. Least favorite stuff pack: perfect patio. I couldnt care less about this stuff pack, I only bought it for the hot tubs. The cas is alright but the buy stuff bores me to tears.

Fav EP: Get Together. I like City Living a lot too cuz it makes the sims world a bit more lively with the festivals but I like Get Together cuz of the clubs. It makes storytelling much easier for me. There's also more build mode items in it which I love cuz I like building.Least Fav EP: Get To Work. The careers get really repetitive and sadly, that's the core of the content.Fav Game Pack: Spa Day. Love the build/buy mode things in this. I don't use the spa venues that much but the wallpaper and floor tiles in this pack mean so much to me. XDLeast Fav Game Pack: Outdoor Retreat. I rarely take my sims to vacation cuz of the deadly refreshed moodlet bug. I know they said they fixed it already, but I'm not gonna risk it.Fav Stuff Pack: Cool Kitchen. I'm always up for new kitchen counters and cabinets! Some of the outfits are nice too for casual wear.Least Stuff Pack: Luxury Party. I barely use the items in this pack and there's too few stuff in this. :confounded:

Get to work is my favourite anything so far. Lots of different gameplay aspects and achievements, aliens, new destinations, Sixam, jobs, collectibles etc. Took me a few weeks to explore the whole thing while everything else so far is "done" in a few hours or at most a couple of days.Least favourite is Get together because there isn't really any new gameplay, it just reuses thing from base game or other packs.I dont really have a favourite GP, I do like the idea of OR better than SP but I'm pretty sure I use the SP object a lot more.Spooky stuff is my favourite SP and possibly my second favourite anything. It's the closest to supernatural we have right now.My absolute fav will most likely be vampires if the rumour is true :)

FAV EP: City living. I love have an urban world and I like CAS and the new collectibles LEAST FAV EP:GTW there is absolutely nothing I like about this EP, as far as I'm concerned it was a huge waste of money and it's not even half baked , it's raw it's not baked at allFAV GP:Haven't gotten a real favorite GP yet, but spa day has been the best for me right now the yoga skill I can't live without.LEAST FAV GP:Outdoors retreat. Hate the fake bears, the ugly birds and honestly I don't even enjoy the vacation spot we got. A beach would have been so much better considering we don't even have seasons, so at least that way it would make more sense. With a forest you are missing rain and wind and a million things that would make it so much better FAV SP: Surprisingly, movie hangout. I hate the concept, but CAS was amazing and I have a weak spot for CASLEAST FAV SP: Like 40% of them, but if I have tochoose one to keep it simple I would say cool kitchen, we got like no kitchen stuff besides maybe like one set, but not enough to create different kitchen styles.

Favorite EP - City Living. I love all the modern furniture and Asian inspired clothing. I am also a city girl, love living in high rise buildings with giant windows.Least favorite EP - Get to Work. Like everyone says, the 3 careers that came with it are a bit tedious after certain time, and they are also buggy. The scientist career has no co-workers showing up at work for me until I had to manually add them back. For detective career, the criminal does not show up in at the police station after being caught. For the doctor career, no pregnant sim ever showed up for my doctor sim to deliver a baby. I had to use a cheat to get him promoted cuz I can't wait any longer. Retail is also half baked, it's not fun like Open for Business in TS2. Photo booth is disappointing, I can only take picture with either 2 adults or 2 kids, I can't even take a family portrait with all the family members. There is also no one tending the booth. With my household of two (husband and wife), they can't even take a photo by themselves. Favorite GP - Spa Day. I love all the furniture and stuff in build mode. My sims also do yoga a lot. Least favorite GP - Outdoor Retreat. With only one destination to go, I get bored after a while. I am also not a camping type of person, now my sims don't even take a vacation anymore.Favorite SP - Luxury Party and Romantic Garden. I can't decide which one to pick, so I will pick both. Luxury Party for the glamorous outfits, the banquet table and fountain of mirth! My wedding/parties won't be so successful with the banquet table and fountain of mirth. Romantic Garden for the cute outfits and more plants for the garden.Least favorite SP - I don't have one in particular, but if I must choose, I will say Kids Room. I do like the new outfits and furniture for the kids, but the monster under the bed really turns me off. There is a family I think it's bugged, the kid wakes up every night scaring of the monster, even when I have the defender nightlight on.

Hello! This is my first post here on the forum. I just wanted to mention that I'm a latecomer to this game. I have never played Sims 1-3. I dabbled a bit with Sims Freeplay, and from there I moved on to Sims 4. Despite some issues, I am totally enjoying the game so far!Favourite EP: I'd have to pick Get Together just for Windenberg alone, not to mention the great build items from this pack. Since getting this pack, all my played sims now live in this world. I don't care too much about the nightclubs though. Second would be Get To Work. I admit, I've only played the scientist career, but the ability to join my sim at work, make inventions and use those outside of the workplace tops any other career that I've tried so far.Least Favourite EP: I do like some of the festivals, flea market and getting new recipes, but this is just a place my sims would visit occasionally.GP: I only have Spa Day and Outdoor Retreat, but Outdoor Retreat would have to be the favourite. I like to play 'rags to riches' type of stories, and the tents and coolers come in really handy when my sims are just starting out. With a few outdoorsy sims in my game, the plant and insect collectibles from this pack are a great addition. I've also come to rely on cloudgaze/stargaze as a way to build relationships....way less clicking that way! :) I really like the build items from Spa Day, but the actual spa with the services and silent yoga classes are a bit under-whelming.SP: Again, I only have two packs: Romantic Garden and Movie Hangout. As someone who appreciates plants and flowers, there are sadly very few plants offered in this pack, and majority of those look very artificial. The plants that came with the base game were designed much better. Movie Hangout isn't bad at all, the furniture and clothing are cute and colourful although I don't tend to use these items much with my current setting.

Favorite EP: City Living. I really like the idea of living in a big city. The CAS and building stuff are awesome. Some lot trait like haunted TLC or cursed added a lot of fun when I played it. Also part of the reason I choose it is because of Jordan Mayer and the UFO fruit I got during the spice festival.

Least Favorite EP: Get Together. While I do enjoy Windenburg and its beautiful European buildings, I don't like the concept of clubs or nightclubs as much. I am not a party animal and find doing only a few things over and over only to earn points boring.

Favorite GP: Vampire of course! Deep down my heart I do have some wild fantasies and vampires are definitely one of those. I love the Gothic CAS and building stuff and I happened to be a fan of F. W. Murnau. Also I quite like Spa Day. I just love to watch sims give/be given massages no matter in Sims 2, freeplay or 4. Maybe that's because I personally want to go for a spa but never have a chance to.

Least Favorite GP: Parenthood. I understand that there are lots of family player, but unfortunately I have hate children trait myself and the only reasons I make my sims have babies are for storylines and Voidcritters collection. This pack just makes those already terrible little monsters even more annoying for me and don't mention the bug when sims do invisible dishes all the time which drives me crazy...... I bought it, and soon deeply regretted my decision. So now I mainly using cheats and leave the kids alone-- can't stand them.

Favorite SP: Really hard to choose. I like most of them. I love the butlers from the Vintage Glamours that make my life with those little sim kids much easier, and wishing wells, fountains and other decors from Romantic Garden, the Popcorn machine, movie screen, tree with lanterns from Movie Hangouts, hot tubs from the Perfect Patios, ice cream maker from Cool Kitchen, buffet table and the fountain of mirth from the Luxury Party and the cursed paintings, pumpkin carving, treats or tricks and costumes from Spooky Stuff. Everything is great!

Least Favorite SP: Fitness Stuff and Bowling Night maybe. I am not a person who likes sports and am content with the swimming pool. And when Eco Living comes out it may join this category, as I personally find the concepts of wedding, funeral and amusement park more interesting and was quite disappointed with the voting result.

I think I like Cats and Dogs the most. I would say vampires, but I would like to have more opinions with them...
and the least favourite would be Bowling Stuff, like you only have some bowling area as a new thing and it get's boring after some time...

Favorite expansion: Get together. It's such a game changer that I could not imagine playing without it.

Least favorite expansion: Get to work. I don't do retails and the new careers felt like a lot of work. Sixam is as boring as hell. I can't even have my male sim get abducted and impregnated.

Favorite gamepack: Vampires, nuff said.

Least favorite game pack: Dine out. I just don't feel like it change my game play for the better.

Favorite stuff pack: Vintage Glamour Stuff because duh, butlers <3

Least favorite stuff pack: Spooky stuff. They're not spooky enough.

The next one is kind of hard as I don't think any GP is particularly terrible or bad even.

Favourite GP: Vampires

Least favourite GP: Spa Day

Favourite SP: Vintage Glamour and Bowlling Stuff

Least favourite SP: Fitness Stuff because I find the gameplay object (wall climbing treadmill) to be the worst of all SP's. Toddler SP and Cool Kitchen come next.

Favorite expansion: City Living. I like all the other packs too which are weather, pets, the one with the partying, and get to work, but City living is just my favorite. Why? I love the karaoke so SO much. Adding singing to the game makes the game just so much more fun. I love the fact that they sing awful at first and then grow into great singers, and how they laugh at their own bad singing during karaoke. The festivals were also so much fun to explore, though I don't go to them a lot anymore since once ya seen it a couple times, ya seen it, you know how it is. I also love how there are new recipes to learn from buying from stalls, it adds a nice "gotta catch-em all!" style to the gameplay!

Favorite game pack: Vampires! (I haven't tried any of the others yet. They just seemed a bit 'meh' for my tastes, and the comercials did not convince me that they would be fun for me. Though I may get the newest one where they can explore stuff later on this year, or when it goes on sale.)

Favorite stuff pack: None. I don't buy this. I can make CC so there is not much appeal in buying something I can make myself. Unless it's like amazing fairy/pixie sparkly stuff, because I love fairies/elves/pixies, but I rather it all be included in a game-pack. Maybe one day a stuff pack will come out that can blow me away and I just have to get it, but this has not been the case for me yet.

Overall I think stuff packs mostly appeal to simmers who enjoy building/creating, and simmers who enjoy building/creating and playing. I mostly enjoy the playing part, and allthough I do definitely build houses and create sims, I only do this because I am picky and I want everything to be how I want it to be. Though I will also admit to downloading a lot of lots and sims from the library, praise the allmighty genius who made the library happen!

Fave ep - Seasons, it affects the entire game not just one bundle of new related elements that I'd barely use and it makes the gameplay a lot more dynamic.
Least fave ep - I have to go with City Living. I've no interest in apartments and the festivals are far too short to get anything done. So I never really go to any.

Fave gp - Vampires. I love vampires and they have done a great job with them this time round.
Least fave gp - Outdoor retreat. I've had it since it came out and only been there twice so far. I don't like vacationing in the game, I get bored after a day and there isn't really much to do or accomplish there if you don't collect.

Fav sp -I would have said Vintage Glamour because of the butler but they are useless so I will go with romantic garden, I love the statues and wishing well.
Least fav sp - Laundry day.

Favorite Expansion Pack: Seasons (This has always been my favorite since Sims 2)
Least Favorite Expansion Pack: Get To Work (I don't necessarily hate it, but the others are definitely better)

Favorite Game Pack: Dine Out (These are the best restaurants in the franchise's history. Building them is even better)
Least Favorite Game Pack: Outdoor Retreat (Again, don't necessarily hate it... but prefer the others much more)

Favorite Stuff Pack: Backyard (this pack really helps me make backyards that look full and realistic)
Least Favorite Stuff Pack: My First Pet (the reason is obvious... or at least should be. I still haven't even bought it)
