Is Growing Together a good pack?

Only my opinion of course but I did in fact buy Growing Together at full price and never regretted it. Not to say there weren't bugs of course but I have still had a tremendous amount of fun with it. And I haven't had a noticeable bug from this pack for quite a while. If you're not a family player you may not get as much out of it but if you are I think you'll love it.

It makes the game what the base game should’ve been - but personally I’m happy paying for it rather than not having these features at all.

I love this pack, for me personally it is a must have for family gameplay.

I like it, but I bought it more for the compatibility feature because I really missed the chemistry system from Sims 2. I have yet to play with all of the family stuff, but what I've seen so far is nice.These are the kinds of packs I like a lot; they have a fair share of "hidden" features and gameplay that isn't obvious at first but shows up in gameplay and has a little more longevity. It's a nice pack, no complaints. ☺️

I only ever buy on sale.... good pack though.

I’d definitely recommend this pack on sale (I don’t get any EP at full price). I take its features for granted now across all my gameplay — the milestones and the compatibility especially. I like the way it changes relationship dynamics, so that some sims are harder/easier for your sim to build relationships with, depending on compatibility. I like the mid-life crisis too. That can happen when you’re not expecting it, and I like that rare bit of unpredictability that makes the game a bit more challenging. The pack is particularly great for family play.

It really is a good pack with a lot of things I use, and I haven't noticed any bugs with it.

But I'll never pay for a pack not on sale again or recommend it. Until the last few months I hadn't bought anything not on sale, ever. For Christmas I decided to get For Rent as a Christmas present to myself. It has bugs that still aren't fixed, bugs that keep me from playing rentals. Despite this I decided recently to get a bundle for myself for my birthday, and now my game is crashing and freezing on loading screens. I think it's probably related to recent patches, but I'm still immensely aggravated.

Thanks, everyone. I decided to go for it.

Good for bb & CAS but the world is a waste of good hard drive space. Vast amounts of unusable area, too little to do or find, waaay too few lots to work with. The typical for a long time now EA TS4 world.

Just saw you bought it :)

I really like it and it is rather useful when playing families but I always struggle with rating packs like this where main parts of pack are more of a side show to me

like do I use it constantly? probably.
is it fun? yup.

but its not like "heck yeah vampires" kind of pack though where I love everything at all times
