For me it is:
Eco Lifestyle
The NAPs ruined it for me and that it's such a hassle to turn them completely off when you play an older save.
Worst are the ones where NPCs steal the stuff from my lots and the one where unplayed Sims 'get touchy'. That's just an absolute no-go without consent.But polluted Evergreen Harbor is still quite cool :]
Get Together
This pack is just not my thing and I should have looked closer before buying.
Usually I don't think twice buying a pack with a new world, but San Sequoia was utterly disappointing for me.
I was so excited for a new city but it just has nothing that makes us want to live there.
Two of the three neigborhoods even look the same -.-And Seasons
I do enjoy the snow once a year but this pack totally ruined my gardening fun.
Before Seasons each of my households had a garden and I loved gardening so much.
But now with having plants that just don't grow in certain seasons and ruin the 'design' of our gardens...
I'd have to switch them or build greenhouses on lots (that are too small anyway), ouf...If I build gardens/greenhouses now, I put more 'fake' plants between the real plants ^^'
So if some of them are out of season, the garden is still pretty.Nothing. I use something, or some feature from every pack I own. 🙌edit:typos

I regret buying Discover University, even at 50% off. I don't like enough about it.
You either have to grind unreasonably hard to graduate within a reasonable time, or you have to drag it out for weeks and weeks. You can't move your sim into university housing without completely severing them from their household, which often conflicts with legacy-style play. You can't pick the roommates. You can't follow your sim to class; so many rabbit holes. The gatherings are lame. There are no uni students unless your sim is actively attending uni, so the world is dead most of the time. NPC students never graduate.
The bb is clunky and ugly, and I have a hard time matching any of it with other bb. I do regularly use one potted plant, one bookcase and the ping-pong table. So that's three items I can find a use for. Yay.
The cas is super hit and miss. I use the hairstyles, but maybe only half of the clothing.
And the world... ugh. What a waste of space. As I mentioned, there's no one in uni most of the time, so it's just this empty, dead place with a few NPC households sprinkled around it. My sims hardly ever go there. I wish I could at least repurpose the campuses for other things.
@PandoraTO . I wish I could at least repurpose the campuses for other things.You can rezone all of the lots, even penthouse dorms, to some other lot type 🙂
After thinking, I should of not really even reply if I reply "nothing" 😃
So I have one what is close of regretting, that is Growing Together.
And why? I am not so fan of the world, and I don't play with infants much at all, and that ep in my mind is most to do with expanding them 🙂
I could do with easy peasy base game infants just fine.

Get Famous. I knew the theme wasn't for me. I mainly got it for the costumes. The fame system is off by default and the acting career was fun for 2 or 3 in game weeks. Some other less interesting EP have a pretty world as a redeeming factor but not this one. Had this pack been released as the 12th DLC rather than the 6th I would probably have skipped it.
For the rest there are few packs I regret getting, but for some I regret not waiting for a sale
- my wedding stories : the world is very pretty but the gameplay too buggy. I should have waited for a sale
- home chef hustle : decent pack but I don't get enough use out of it to be worth full price

For Rent. That pack was buggier than a roach motel for me, and broke two of my saves in the first week I attempted to make or download rental residential builds. I stopped playing with that lot type after that, and at least I haven't experienced any issues with the CAS or BB items from that pack, and even Tomarang seems to function fine in my main save (though I have left all of the RR lots completely untouched in it and completely yeeted them and changed those lots to regular residential in a different save just to see if I could do so safely). My intention was to try playing with rentals again after this latest patch dropped, but after seeing the issue seems to have persisted since then (at least according to one EA Answers thread reporting white screen worlds that has replies as recent as today), I am stlll very leery of putting those things in my main save, although I have one in my test save just to see what happens.
The sad thing is that I was super excited for For Rent because I play in a mostly medieval save and wanted to make little villages with it. Also, I am of Southeast Asian descent and wanted that food. 😃 But my second corrupted save happened after I had removed my mods and was play-testing in a brand new, modern world save, so I know the mods didn't cause the save corruption in that second instance.

I don't regret buying any Sims 4 pack. They all have their place in my game. My only difficulty is trying to find ways to incorporate and make use of everything. There's just so much content now 🙂
- OzSimsFamily2 years agoSeasoned Ace
I don’t regret buying any of them, however I do regret spending full price for some of them.
By far, the most disappointing one was For Rent. I was so excited about the night markets, and the possibility of an animal sanctuary with tigers, elephants, monkeys and orangutans…the park/garden??? I was looking forward to some amazing tropical plants (bb), with some plants like rice, tea and ginger to grow…
and then we had the game-breaking bugs!!!
There were so many storylines that I was planning - multi-level and multi-generational “home”, best friends sharing a duplex, rags to riches…. I still don’t go near that pack so all of the planned stories are still parked and waiting!
- Moozilla132 years agoSeasoned Ace@LennyOgg Oooooh good question. For me it's For Rent, just like others have mentioned here, because the numerous bugs have honestly been more trouble than the content is worth, rendering the best aspects of the pack basically useless. (And I was also hoping for new harvestables like tea and rice.) When things are working, it's not a bad pack, but in some ways it feels like a wasted opportunity, especially with the glitch gameplay.
My other one is Journey to Batuu. This was sort of my own fault since I didn't look properly at what it really was when I bought it, but like many, I thought I'd be able to build in it, so I was disappointed it didn't work like a regular vacation world. If I was more of a Star Wars fan I might've appreciated it more, but honestly...instead of a takeoff on a Disney theme park, I would have much rather had a pack that enabled me to have my sims live in an alien neighborhood. (A pack that lets you actually live on Sixam is one I would absolutely buy.)
