- atreya335 years agoLegendThis is the one pack I keep forgetting. I use the BB regularly but my sims never go to a spa because I simply keep forgetting about them.
runner ups are outdoor retreat because there is so little to do on vacation compared to jungle adventure and vampires because I have little interest in the theme.
All in all, I really like the game packs. They are well made and add more to the game than I would have expected when I first heard about this category of DLC. Some of them are more essential to my gameplay than certain EP's. - I had to go with Dine Out. It ran okay when I built my own restaurant but the Maxis ones had too many glitches.
I almost voted for Strangerville. I enjoyed the story but once you were done you were left with a very boring town. - Khrisstyne5 years agoSeasoned AceLike others have said, it's boring.
There's also not nuch to do in the world so you should just have your sim stay home instead :D - Out of these I will go with Outdoor Retreat mainly because the main attraction of the pack - Granite Falls retreat - is very much a one time deal. Go once and never return. In addition, the nature of the locations makes it a bit annoying to actually visit. In other words, not only there is not THAT much to do there, but it is a bit too complicated for its own good to go there. With that said, I do love tents.
If I had to pick another one, it would be Spa Day.Sure, the idea is nice and build items are decent, but that about it. I do use the stuff it offers quite a lot, but I can't say that I enjoy it and it is something I could definitely live without i my house. - netney525 years agoSeasoned AceVampires. The world is depressing and dull compared to all the other worlds. I’ve tried the gameplay with the pre-made vampires and just didn’t like it maybe it was the pre-mades I didn’t like I don’t know. I found Vald creepy and the siblings boring. I only got the pack when it was on sale mainly for the bb items. It’s a pack I want to try and re-play with as I don’t feel I’ve given it a fair chance and make my own vampires. It’s not an occult thing as I love mermaids and quite like spellcasters and have them in my game.
- icemanfresh5 years agoLegendIt's not actually bad, but it's quite bare compared to later packs.
- simsimsere5 years agoSeasoned AceI like all the GPs so had to think long and hard for this question. I picked OR because although the theme is fine and the tent is an absolute necessity to have, I wish there was more to do. Also it gets no extra points from CAS and not many points from build/buy. My next choice would have been Realm of Magic which is the pack I would give away if I had to live without one of them. Maybe should have voted for it after all.
@Onverser I have a good word! Dine Out is actually one of my facourite GPs. I love having different type of restaurants in my game (have probably ten or so) and sending my sims to dine in them. I've never tried running a restaurant so there's that. I don't know why it seems to be buggy for so many people, but I know I'm not the only one loving it. - GrumpyGlowfish5 years agoSeasoned AceDine Out is a glorified Stuff Pack. All you get is literally what it says in the title: A place to dine out. No new world, no traits or aspirations, skills or occults, just one new lot type and a couple of CAS and BB items that look out of place everywhere else. I like having restaurants in the game, but making them their own pack rather than including them with Get To Work was just rude, and the bugs that seem to befall it with every update don't help.
Outdoor Retreat is a close second for wasting its great potential and ending up being a boring one-time experience with a fake bear and a hard-to-master herbalism skill that's not even useful enough to be worth it. I do like all the other GPs, though. "EricasFreePlay;c-17503172" wrote:
The worst pack in my opinion is Vampires. When I read what it contained and the gameplay, I knew I did not even want it. I don't own it.
seems a bit like cheating to me, to vote a pack without having played it. I think the point of the vote was to gain insights from those who have played.- I don't hate outdoor retreat, but it is pretty empty. It should have been a stuff pack!
