Worst Game Pack

This is the pack I see no point to. I can do all these without going to vacation world. If we ever one day get the chance to buy or live in vacation worlds maybe this pack will go up a few ranks. Until then it my least fav pack.

I had it since March 2017 and only took my Sims camping 3 times! During those trips, I found the hidden lot and met the hermit once - the final trip. On both trips 1&2, the fire inside the fire-ring got out! So I didn't even bother to use it on the third (and final) trip. Most of the times, I just forget about Granite Falls - not intentionally. Just 9 out of 10 times, I just forget it's there. To be honest, I really don't use the build/buy items too often...

BUT...

Without the Outdoor Retreat pack, I wouldn't have the hairstyle needed for Lisa Bunch!

I don't hate spa day... but even though I like the items that come with it, I rarely use any of the gameplay in it.

It's a bit of a toss up between Jungle Adventure and Vampires. I was going to buy Vampires just for the new world, but in the end decided I wasn't interested in a gloomy looking world. I did buy JA but get freaked out every time I take my Sims there. Spiders, snakes and other creepy crawlies are just too much for me even though it is just a game. I traveled to many places in my past, and saw a lot of different insects, lizards, snakes, etc. but for some reason I just can't handle those being in my game. So my Sims go to the town on day trips to learn the culture, and stay out of the jungle.

Boring yes. I do enjoy the camping gear, and herbal remedies but going to Granite Falls...

outdoor retreat was lame lame lame

Jungle adventure is my least favorite because there aren't any good mods to make it better like the other game packs.

Parenthood doesn't add enough gameplay, in my opinion. I'd love if there was more to it than offspring earning traits that just give access to a few new social interactions.

I enjoy different kinds of gameplay, so sometimes I'm in the mood for adventure and sometimes I just need some good old family drama (I would probably play in a realistic style more if the base game was better overall, but that's a different subject). So I have all packs and I do send my sims to the spa and camping, and discipline toddlers often enough--even Strangerville I played more than once. And while I utterly h a t e d managing restaurants, a lot of my stories take place in commercial venues, so I do use them.

Sure, maybe Spa Day could have been a Stuff Pack instead, but I pick Realm of Magic because I feel it's the weakest for such a rich concept. Vampires is the most well done overall, though if you're not into occults you'll find a pretty good system wasted lol.
