San Sequoia World Discussion

It's true that some of the worlds from past EPs and GPs have been disappointing as far as size and unusable buildings go. I have my favorites, as everyone does, but that doesn't mean I don't find a way to use most of them. Now that we can set up rentals in all the worlds, I use my least favorite worlds I seldom use as residential worlds as destination spots for my Sims to visit. This is especially handy whenever I play a treasure hunter Sim or a fisherman. After seeing those screenshots of San Sequoia showing off some of the views from the neighborhoods, I think this world will go on my favorites list fairly quickly.

I generally don't base my decision about purchasing new EPs on the size of the world. I look at what the new features will add to my playing style and if those features have cross-pack playability first. But I am wondering about the sizes of the lots. Naturally, not every family will live on a lot big enough for the new treehouse. On the other hand, having one family with a treehouse in the neighborhood will make it easier for kids to have friends over to play with because not everyone will have one.

But the size of the world affects when I buy new EPs. If the world is a wreck with very few lots and filled with fake buildings, I wait to buy it when it goes on sale.
