Which pack pleasantly surprised you?

I’m working through the packs and haven’t tried all of them yet but probably bowling night stuff. Spent a couple of weeks building a bowling alley and then decorating it for Halloween and having a party there too. Love the NPCs you can download off the gallery from the trailer, used the CAS stuff and pretty much all the build items and just think it’s kinda fun. I got like game pack level content from it.

Also see how it would be unremarkable to a lot of people too. I think a lot of these packs depends on how you use them, what sims you have, how you feel at that particular time, what you like in real life etc ?

I love the clothes in that pack!

Eco Lifestyle. I had a bad experience in the beginning with it with Neighborhood Action Plans, and the bugs related to them. And the pack also has some strange items like the meat wall and the insect farm and the traits are giving you more trouble than benefits.

But other than that, fabricating and making your own items, actually pretty fun. Building container homes, also fun. The new community lots, also well done and work pretty well, going around in different worlds and trying to improve their footprints, also fun and interesting, some worlds looked great with a green eco footprint. And we also got some apartments. Both CAS and the Build/Buy items look great and I used a lot of those items when I was renovating houses and apartments with Dream Home Decorator.

The pack also has some of my favorite NPC sims with Knox Greenburg and Tina Tinker who can show up on other lots and help you out.

Eco Lifestyle. I think it was a pretty solid pack. Great world, apartments, gameplay, career, etc. It was finally one of the few non favorite packs (Seasons, Pets, University, Night themed) we got in a while and it was enjoyable (minus the annoying voting thing) but glad they did something different.

Get Together.

When I first saw the trailers I thought 'Is that it?' and was not expecting much, but it turned out to be a solid expansion pack. Great world, the totally awesome club system, Don't Wake The Llama, darts, foosball, dancing etc.

Funnily enough, laundry day.

I generally don't like packs. Just personal preference. But this one works really well, the items for it are all really nice and it works as it's own thing.

Strangerville, wasn’t at all interested the story but the world, CAS and BB are great

Get to Work. I love the active careers, the ability to make retail stores and surprisingly really like aliens which I had no interest in. They just have fun abilities and I love that they can shapeshift.

Strangerville
I thought it might have very little replay value given the similarities to Stranger Things
but I actually find it has lots of replay value and its always such fun to play

tbh most of the packs that are not 100% exactly what I asked for
it takes me a while to figure packs out :sweat_smile:
but when I do its great fun

Eco Living because I thought it would be the most horrible pack. However, I love the clean green environment, the CAS, Build Objects and even Evergreen Harbor is OK for some of my Superhero & SiFi households.

I use various items from all of the packs I currently own. But I have to say the one that pleasantly surprised me the most is Get Famous. I much prefer the celebrity system over the one in Sims3. At least your Sim has to be good at something and not just become famous for 'knowing' somebody who is famous. I use a mod so I can have my singer Sim back. I'm having a great time, as a result.
