Yes.. The family I'm playing now won't make much use of the pack.. because most of it very cutesy and it doesn't fit with them. I do have a rat and I'm really enjoying the interactions. I've just got a young adult male sim and a cat in the household otherwise. It's given my play a sweet little boost. I'm enjoying the interactions between all of them. I haven't gone into the disease/death aspect yet though. I'm playing .. nice.. and enjoying it. I want to see the poor guy get ahead. He might have to call forth evil rat death powers though if he get's cornered though.

I did look through CAS and build buy and yes I will use it for the right families. I love the female hairstyle... I had to make a sim for it. I haven't played her yet... she's got a sweet elven face. I'm not usually big on the two tone hairs but really liking how it looks that way. The male hairstyle I can see working but didn't float my boat with many male face shapes yet.. looks great on girls though. I can see using a bunch of the "stuff" with the right families.. honorable mentions to the kids activity table and bookcase.. much cuter than base game. The pet beds for variety, who doesn't want an egg or lemon bed seriously? The new rug .. I love that and can see it in bathrooms and kids rooms ect. The hamster habitat wall decals and the chow down litter box.

It's been a fun glowing game play day. I know these blow over a bit after the newness wears off but hey, I woulda spent more going to the movies. Besides I haven't even played with it all the ways I'm imagining I can.

I don’t know what movies you go to, but I love spending my money on that. Spending money on a good movie is as valuable as spending money on a good game. And spending money on a bad movie is a shame, a waste of money, like spending money on a bad game is.

(regardless how people judge this pack, this comparison makes absolutely no sense to an enthousiastic moviegoer like me; I also like spending money on books and many of them I’ve carried with me for decades)

You're preaching to the choir with being enthusiastic about those things. I also buy hardbacks and enjoy almost all day sessions of reading.. and sometimes the next day that can happen with a really good book. Those can cost in the 20's when new. I am talking about enjoyment.. and buying something you get entertainment out of ... because I have gotten at least 12 hours of hands on, in game enjoyment out of this pack alone up to this point in time. Oh and that's not including the amusement I get from coming to the forums and reading all the angst about it chucked in there for added amusement. I would think 10 dollars covers all that. Besides I'll continue to tally up the hours every time one of my sim has a rodent.. uses anything from the pack ect... I do think I'll stop doing it for this pack as it's already integrated into my game. I guess that falls into the replayability value of movies and rereading books.. which I also do if they entertain or speak to me.
I wasn't really talking about buying something you know you're not going to enjoy at all. I usually go to movies I think I'll enjoy, and buy books from authors I do enjoy (at least the hardback versions). I'm not so adventurous to pick those things randomly or worse yet know I dislike something but try to sit and bear it. I'm actually very rarely disappointed in movies I choose to attend and when it does happen I guess I don't choose to dwell on that. The Sims 4 is also similar to me in that respect.
