I gave it a 8.
It's definitely one of the better expansion packs, there's not much to dislike here except for some of the hairstyles maybe.
I really love the world and I'm very happy that they decided to let Deli, James, lilsimsie and Simlicy build the lots.
It really shows, these are some of the best looking houses in the entire game.
I would've giving it a higher score if not for the fact that my sims were often sad for various reasons and because of how the new sentiments system works, if one was sad the others in the family started to feel sad also.

I am NOT throwing shade at all on these builders. I love the work they do and their channels on YouTube. This is just my opinion and NOT meant to offend anybody here. It's NOT an attack on them or their work. It's just an observation that I feel other builders from the building community would have made a better choice. My opinion is simply based on them having a lack of experience that is all. Sorry thinking like HR with somebody coming in for an interview with zero knowledge and zero experience. That person wouldn't be hired unless it was to work behind a register. bag your groceries or flip burgers.

Whenever I go to Philadelphia for whatever reasons I go to the Shofuso House and Garden in Fairmount Park, which is a beautiful Japanese House and Japanese Garden where everybody is dressed in Japanese regalia. It's like a piece of Japan was moved into Philly. I love it. The first time I was there was as a kid with my mom and sis. Normally my sis and I would have been bored and would have found a way to escape to find something less boring to do. We loved it. It's because of it we learned everything we could about Japanese culture and I learned calligraphy and how to do a proper tea ceremony. It's my favourite place to go whenever I'm in Philly.

With that said I wish and would have prefered builders with experience in doing Japanese or at the very least Asian inspired builds prior to the pack. Again this isn't meant to throw shade on these builders. I love their work and their channels and love watching their builds but from their videos. What I've seen of the past work they do Western-style builds prior to this pack. It's just a preference I would have liked to have seen.
