I really can't vote this way. Putting Seasons on this list is kind of silly when no one has seen any gameplay in action, even on a live stream. It's very premature to already call it "worst ever!" and just makes me think that some people want to hate it just to prove some subjective point.
For the rest, I could say that there are things I dislike about each of them, but there are also things that I have found regular use for in each as well. As far as an overall cohesive pack, Get Together always felt to me like it was a mish-mash of things that were intended for the base game and thrown together with a new world and a random theme stamped onto it. But that doesn't mean I hate it or don't use it, because the club system and Windenburg are very valuable to me.
I used to feel that Get To Work was my least favorite, but then I realized how much I love the Aliens this time around and I really enjoy the Scientist career. I also do feel like we got a lot of interesting stuff with the pack, like jail walls and new rewards and build/buy, so now I feel like I've underrated this pack.
Cats and Dogs is, to me, one of the best so far, aside from the lack of actual pet objects, which is where I think they dropped the ball. But I'm very happy with the behavior of the pets and the way they interact.
So I guess that leaves City Living as my least favorite. There are probably more things in that pack that I don't care about or use, even though I like having a city with apartments and a new type of environment for my sims. I really only like the Spice District with the Brownstone buildings and also the bubble blower. The other locations have a weird aesthetic for gameplay, the festivals get old too fast and have no exceptional features, and the talking toilet is so ridiculous that I can't believe they didn't include an additional mesh of it as a regular chair that turned up at the Geek festival. I don't care much about karaoke or basketball either, so I guess if I had to live without one EP, it would be City Living.
As of now there’s only one vote for Seasons, so I don’t think anyone here is saying that. I agree it’s premature to add it pre-release, but it was announced and will be available in a few weeks and not including it would mean a whole new poll would have to be created following it’s release.
Agree with your points on CL though.
