Island Living is a good “Expansion Pack”
I see very 50/50 opinions on Island Living. A lot of people who are unhappy feel there’s isn’t enough new gameplay avenues. For me, Island Living is perfect for what an Expansion Pack original...

This “expansion pack” is like a beefed up game pack. When I buy a $40 expansion pack I don’t expect to see the truly new stuff kept to a minimum. This pack rehashes a ton of stuff to pad it out while keeping the new gameplay to a minimum and mostly restricted to the new world.
Feature-wise, this pack has none and what fun stuff it adds can be consumed in a few hours if even that long. My recommendation is to save your $40 and get this one on a sale of some sort. It’s not worth the $40 price tag. EP’s for this version rarely are, but this one especially is not. $20 seems like a fair price for what you ultimately get.
Again I honestly don't understand any of this criticism. It just doesn't make sense since I look what's in the pack vs the criticism and it seems like the criticism is of another pack than what I bought.
To each their own I guess, not sure what you want me to tell you. This pack adds a handful of new gameplay content, and the remainder is either borrowed and given a face lift or is a text based off-screen thing.
What is the big feature with this pack? For me it doesn’t cut it as an expansion because it doesn’t expand on anything and really doesn’t add much to do in the game especially outside of the new world. That’s what game packs do. Feel free to disagree, but it’s not like you not understanding my take on it makes my take any less of a valid opinion.
