Get Famous Or City Living?

I like both these packs and my friend has them. I've played them both but its so hard to chose. I love the acting career, and you have to work for getting famous creating a certain challenge. I would probably use it a lot. But then City Living has karaoke, apartments, festivals, basketball etc.. But if anyone thinks I should get a different pack then City Living or Get Famous please let me know!

  • City Living 100%. I have both. I got Get Famous first. It was fun for a little bit. City Living adds so much more.
  • City living for sure! Mainly because of the lot traits. You get a whole lot of them with that pack, and they can influence your gameplay wherever you are in the game. The city can be a bit laggy though, but it's fun nonetheless. Get Famous has great CAS but the main career felt repetitive for me.
  • Personally I enjoy City Living a lot more. I often send my sims to festivals or have them live in apartments.
    Get Famous is definitely my least used pack. I don't like my sims being famous and the CAS/BB items aren't ones I use a lot. It's not a bad pack, but it has to suit your play style.
  • I'd say it depends on your playstyle, but I definitely loved City Living, it's my fave pack so far.

    @EliasVersace I also experience a lot of lag in the city! It isn't too bad when my sims from other worlds visit. But when I am playing sims who live in San Myshuno apartments, it's soooo laggy. I have a pretty good PC & I don't use CC or mods either. I hope that gets fixed.

    City Living is great, but living in the city myself, I don't really enjoy this pack that much. The festivals are great, the apartment is cool, but it's not really adding to my gameplay that much.

    Get Famous, I really enjoy giving my Sims those perks, reputation, etc. It's somehow makes my Sims world more interesting in some way. I personally like the active career, so, the actor career is a bonus for me. As you mentioned, the challenge is really neat! Plus, my Sims salary is much better with higher reputation. Even more if they have the degree. One of my Scientist Sims is earning 16k per day.
  • Get Famous has more active gameplay, whilst City Living is just a nice world with some other stuff. Depends which interests you more, a nice world and apartments or active gameplay. :)

    Yes, it can get pretty bad when playing in apartments! I think it's because of the scenery and the moving effects in the background, and the game spawning more walk-by Sims. But it really shouldn't happen on good PCs so I hope they fix it too :)
  • I really enjoyed having an apartment, especially some of the nicer luxury ones. However, the camera can sometimes get wonky in the apartment.
  • Personally I like City Living the most out of the two. It has the festivals and sometimes it’s really fun to play in a city apartment instead of a house in the suburbs type place.

    Get Famous is a fun pack but the careers are some what repetitive and the celebrities disruptive and annoying to regular play.
