What's your least favorite expansion pack?
Which is your least fav (I had to double up because of poll restrictions). For me it's Eco Lifestyle. There's one sweater in there l love and that's about it.

For me it's Growing Together.
For our way to play this pack gave us nothing and imo the world is boring and unappealing.
Build/buy also not our taste and cas was the worst, imo.
Followed by Seasons, which ruined my beloved gardening for us.
For me a pack stands and falls with the world.
That's where we spend the most of our time. Then build/buy, then cas and then gameplay.
If I had to give points I would evaluate like this:
(All EP under 5 points are a bad buy for me.)

@Lenny_Ogg
I really like Get Famous. For a story teller, this pack has a lot to offer. The poses from acting and the film set objects, for example.
And I like Del Sol Valley.
And even though I was very upset when Highschool Years was announced, I really learned to love it.
Copperdale is created with so much love and I love the teenage lifestage. Build/buy and cas is excellent too.
Same for Eco Lifestyle. I like Evergreen Harbor a lot. And the change of the world is so awesome.
Even though I only gave six points these are solid packs I wouldn't want to miss.
I think with ~40€/$ these Expansions are very expensive.
Baldur's Gate 3, for example, costs ~60€/$. A full excellent game.
They should really put a bit more effort in the packs for the money, imo.
I hear you @Lenny_Ogg and while it's not my least- I really think it lacks luster. Growing together would have been possibly one the the best if it were really bring playable babies life stage to the game- however - because the Sims team did not want to put a new life stage behind a paywall, it was an update. So basically all the pack offered was friendship bracelets and a planned stay over- Really- that's it? that's not an expansion pack, even if you make a special waste basket just for diapers. changing tables- that's it?
not ever strollers.
New venue type is what? a library you can play board games in?!! you can sleep over there?
I have never slept over in a public building my entire like and I'm not about to start virtually unless there's an evacuation order.
The movie theater was a potentially rad new venue type. Anything fun really. I wish they hire me to play test for them.
While I hear you @Lenny_Ogg on the world making or breaking the expansion pack, I woulf have to disagree, with you low points value towards Chestnut Ridge. It's actually becoming one of my favorite worlds and visiting the others worlds, finding it hard to hold up, considering it's size and vastness. I believe they will have to make all the worlds this big from now on, especially if they are giving us cars,(undoubtedly).
I heard you on San Sequoia too. I really really wanted to love it, but I can't. While my weekend of barely playing but revamping all worlds, I sort of fixed it for me in my head. I visited San Francisco in real life and it's a wonderful city.
I put some townhouses down in San Sequoia- This they should have added to the game. I have found a new fun for this world now. I hope they add townhouses as a new venue type, so we have have multiple families, however, like roommates, not playable. Also like a low key city, multipurpose lots would make the game so much more dynamic. If they would have introduced it in this world- it would have worked.
