"They've managed 14 lots in Sulani though, enough for me, so lot numbers are going up again since Get Famous. If you have most or all the packs there are a large number of lots to use now."
Get Together came with 27, City Living came with 30, if you are okay with getting a world with only 14 lots for $40 (because what else is there in this pack?) then we've been brainwashed enough to think thats okay
Brainwashing is a serious subject and shouldn't be talked of so easily. It's a form of torture not influencing. I guage a pack by the amount of pleasure I get from playing with it. £40 is OK with me. It's equal with the others, and more enjoyable. :)
I am sure they mean that according to the second definition.
Definition of brainwashing
1 : a forcible indoctrination to induce someone to give up basic political, social, or religious beliefs and attitudes and to accept contrasting regimented ideas
2 : persuasion by propaganda or salesmanship
And it should be talked about because there are companies out there using psychological manipulation to get you to spend more money.
Here is an example:

People may feel they are enjoying their purchase, but the feeling of enjoyment may be manipulation.
The more educated you are the better off you are.
On Topic:
There are so many features I love in TS4.
There also many features I want improved and added to TS4, mainly related to making traits stronger and certain features like burglars, and more random and surprising game play.
More packs are fine, but I also want more game play depth.
