One thing I have noticed is that all of the sims 4 expansion packs have something different from at least the first two games. I never played sims 3 so I mostly compare my experience to sims 2.
Get Together has a lot of the stuff that the date expansions had in 1 & 2, but since dates and parties were base game we got the whole new club system instead. This seems like a net positive to me.
Seasons didn't have to add gardening and fishing the way it did in 2, so they had room to add the holidays instead.
But when the missing content is not in the base game, the new packs come up short some of the time.
Such as we don't get retail that's as detailed as Open for Business because those resources were spent on active careers.
We don't get birds and reptiles and have to spend extra for small mammals because those resources were spent on the vet career.
I like the active careers and the vet career, but I also miss what was left out to make room for them.
I thought the active careers in Get to work was the best part of the pack. I would love to see more careers like those, instead the active careers have become semi active with no work places. I was so hoping for the military career to be an active one, also law, and school teacher, and the political career, I feel like they half baked compared to the first 3 careers. The retail system is not good, open for business was much better.
