Sims 4 is a hit or miss with many packs.
- expansion packs supposedly add the most amount of content
- While some do a good job focusing on gameplay that is more universal (seasons especially) a lot feel like glorified worlds with little lasting gameplay
- Sims 2 and 3 eps had a stronger focus while sims 4 eps sometimes feel all over the place with no thematic focus and lacking details.
- $40 price tag not always justified
- Game packs generally have more fleshed out features with vampires dine out and parenthood being the best. Parenthood is especially good adding content that effects sims daily lives and changes gameplay as a whole.
- A big miss with game packs are the ones that add rpg like stories and content that doesn’t work well for sandbox gameplay (I.e. once you complete it you don’t go back to it)
- stuff packs generally don’t contain much gameplay, but unlike sims 2 and 3 l, they seem to be a better deal as they include interactive objects
- Kids room stuff, vintage glamour movie hangout, laundry day, and nifty knitting add the most gameplay for stuff packs as they either include new gameplay, or in depth interactive objects.
