in the original servey it mentioned a singer career and a career as a director to.

I remember that. How come Superstar was so full of many different hands on careers and we didn't even have to stick to one but could jump around every day, and this EP is just an acting career? A director career would have been fun for me. 'No, you stink! get out of here!' I would have enjoyed making some Sims cry. >:) lol

You can't possibly compare the S1 Superstar acting career with the acting career in Get Famous. In Superstar, you clicked three buttons in any order until the director was happy and then done. In GF, the whole system is obviously more hands on and immersive for the player whose sim is in the acting career. Your actor sim goes to Plumbob Studios and goes into wardrobe to get into costume, then, make-up to get that look correct and finally, heads to the set to be told by the director what is happening in this scene. Your sim hits their mark, says the lines and, BOOM, a star is born.

To me, GF is a vast improvement on the acting career. And if that means that modeling and bands got squeezed out to make room for more acting stuff, I'm all for it. Modeling and bands can come later in a separate pack.

Please, no singer, no comedian, no modeling... no limos, no traffic jams, and no, you couldn't just hit the menu buttons until you got it right. (It wasn't a guessing game) You had to skill and have the right personality that day, be in a very good mood, and which one they wanted you to do/perform was not just a 'guess' but a strategy. Go play it again, TS4 falls short again.

A sims mood had nothing to do with it. It was totally a guessing game. Pick the order, change the one(s) that were wrong and try again. There's absolutely no skill involved, just luck. I watched several Let's Play's and sims were in various moods and levels of need, but if the player clicks the correct order, all was good, great job kid, you're going far.

We got singing in CL which will benefit from the fame gain and the comedian is part of the Entertainer career from the base game along with music, both of which will also benefit from the fame gain.

Players are complaining about things being left out of GF that are literally already in the game.

Keep preaching that bolded part! I also see people complaining that previous games expansions had more features and now in the Sims 4 all these features are split up, but which game has the better feature? Sims 4 has a better acting career than 3 clearly, better vampires than 3, the worlds are a subjective thing but I like Sims 4 worlds better because they seem to look and function better than worlds in 3, yes, Sims 4 tends to split features up among a variety of packs, but in the end the features themselves are better and more fully fleshed out than ever before. More doesn't always mean better, unless what you want is more rather than depth. To each their own I guess.
