It is so ironic that before Get Together released we said it would be the worst expansion pack ever and now we prefer it over Get To Work XD

Get To Work was great in idea, but they blew it on implementation because of the active careers relying on those idiotic task lists. I was tired and fed up with the task lists within a couple days of playing. It reminded me too much of the "to-do" missions for a RPG game. Since I was initially drawn to the Sims franchise for the open sandbox play, RPG features don't appeal to me. I've never tried the retail aspect because after reading other player's input on how it falls short of OFB, I just wasn't interested.

Get Together seems to be working much better for players because it goes back to offering what players want. Flexibility. Choices. It still has a long way to go, but I feel a small bit more hopeful about Sims 4 when I think about Get Together in comparison to Get To Work. Now I'm just waiting to see what more will come in 2016. I'm not as discouraged as I used to be, but neither am I really enthusiastic about this version. I'm more in a "wait and see" mode now.
