Which Sims Expansion Pack Really Wasn't Worth It

Windenburg is great, and I love the Sims that come with it. The CAS is great. But basing an ENTIRE expansion pack on clubs? Useless.

I dunno, the entire expansion pack was based on having closets to woohoo in, dancefloors and dJs (so, real discos and nightclubs), and gorgeous scenery, both natural and human built. But the clubs are a great cheat-like solution for various problems if you use them inventively. You can create a Cleaning and Repairs Club, enlist members, then invite them to your house. Jobs, done, free! Or a social club for filling social needs...or a physical needs club if you like, and member just instantly seem to materialize at your beck and call, to do your bidding so long as it's built into the club activities.

Evil, I know.

I put Cats and Dogs because I have it on PS4 and was glad I never bought it for PC. but I wish I could change my vote to Get Famous, because it really is only worth one play-through, and the people fainting and nothing being able to be done anywhere in any world due to celebrities, does get old. But there are mods to keep celebrities from spoiling every social event by crashing it, at least.

Get to Work easily for me they just did nothing right in that pack endless limitations poorly thought out retail with no real game play to keep you busy as store owner or shopper and boring checklist careers. Had they at least added the police station and hospital to Magnolia Promenade where your played Sims could of went to the hospital or been arrested it would of at least had some redeeming quality but it does not.

For me Get Famous is the pack I probably use least. None of the packs are truly bad though, it really just depends on personal preference which one you like or don't like.

A tie between get famous and cats and dogs - I've not bought either yet as I'm not interested in celebrity and cats and dogs sounds like family play, which I'm not interested in either.

The one that i own that I play least is discover university, but solely because I have to boot into windows 7 to play it. My Mac is stuck on legacy edition, but I installed windows 7 as it can run 64 bit windows. However switching just to play DU? Nah.

After thinking this through I'm surprised more people didn't choose cats and dogs. That's my choice if I had to pick one. Only cats and dogs, they take up the house hold space and you cannot even control them. Build and buy is lacking plus too many stickers that I never use. A lot of people complained about island living feeling empty. Well with this all I feel I really got was a cat and a dog that constantly begs.

Edit to add: I like to add stray cat or dog lot traits to my house because I don't have room in my house for one. But everytime I do they look disturbingly sick ALL the time. And consistantly throw up all over my house. ?

I don't really enjoy living in apartments because of the constantly noisy neighbours. The geek festival is fun but only when it's not raining. Of all my packs, that is the one I could most easily live without.

I think Cats and Dogs sill has too many issues and moreover I don't like the focus of the pack (veteranian career/sick pets and expanded pet CAS).

I always looked forward to pets expansions. I liked being able to fill out my families, and loved the little quirky things they added. In Sims 2, my cats always became actors, and in 3, I loved sending my dogs out to find me gems. In Sims 4, they seem more like decoration than family members. Decorations that take up a household slot I could use for someone more interesting.

I love my cats and dogs but...

Every time I load another household their cats and dogs are sick. This is so annoying if you play rotational. The other packs I can return to and play but I am so tired of curing pets.

We also got pets not greeting each other, bugged vet clinics, food bowls disappearing, dirty and hungry strays...the list goes on with the bugs and the bad game design in this pack.
