in my experience id say game packs do better than the other packs up to now
I mostly have expansions because its very hard to get game packs where i live out of bundles (and I can't order online)
but I feel lots of expansions have holes in them and you'd probably go better getting 2 gps over 1 ep overall
If you get eps though make sure its on sale (since sales are finally happening)
I think about only ep worth whole price would be Seasons in my opinion and it is sort of must have
though Island Living is lot of fun for me as well but you could really wait a bit to get it on sale
since its full of bugs now so it won't really help with ''getting into game'' so to speak
for gps I have heard Parenthood adds a lot for family players even though I don't have it yet
and for ones I have I recommend Vampires since it adds quite a lot to my game
but only if you like occults in your game and like playing them
though Realm of Magic on the way I'd personally avoid buying anything just yet as occult player
what comes to stuff packs. just don't really :joy: if you can avoid buying them id always recommend to skip them
but all this said its still best to go with something you find cool since these are subjective opinions
going through some reviews and lets plays might help you
recommending lazygamereviews for example for less ''glossed over'' take
