I think it comes down to your play style. I tend to play realistic/family game play so I would recommend Growing Together. I use the world it came with a lot. I feel like the pack added a lot of gameplay. Horse Ranch also was a surprise hit for me but mainly for the world and build buy. The world that came with Wedding Stories is my favorite world. At this point you should be able to get all of the above at a sale price.
Ooh ok, what would you say are your favourite parts of Growing Together? I was a HUGE Sims 3 Generations fan so love anything family/homey. I wondered if it pairs well with High School Years? Tartosa looks stunning, do you know if weddings are still broken? Sorry for all the questions 😂
I've played several Weddings since they put out the repair patch for mws. For the most part everything works now. I haven't been able to get the flower toss to work. Sometimes I have to click on something more than once to get sims to do what I asked but beyond that I've been satisfied with the gameplay. The world is beautiful.
Growing Together added family dynamics and more family activities including stuff to build a splash park. It has become a must have pack for me. Also if you play with infants it gives more items for infants. I really like the recreation center lot type and the splash pad items. The baby showers and family reunions are nice too.
High-school years focuses on teen gameplay. You can travel with your teen sims to high-school, attend prom and graduation. It comes with a rabbit hole carnival area which is pretty neat.
Someone mentioned avoiding For Rent, I totally agree. I would avoid that pack until the game breaking bugs are sorted out.
Thank you so much this is really helpful info, I think I know which I need next!
