    I mean... in my opinion it should've come with the basegame. At least weather change. Without seasons it doesn't feel like it's real. I mean, I know it's a game but when it's summer ALL THE TIME it's so plastic and obvious that it's a simulation and I can't immerse myself at all.

    Without question it’s Seasons, and I agree it should just come with the base game at this point. Don’t they make it harder for themselves adding this after the fact?

    Super hard one, as I love some of them a lot! But I'll go with seasons cause it's the one that 'works' on the game all the time. Weather influences everything.
    But I can't live without City Living, Get Together and Cats and Dogs.
    The ones I could definitely live without are GF and GW.

    I could live without it, but for the sake of not being "that person"... I'll vote anyway :D

    I love every aspect of this pack except the terrain bugs in DSV.

    Seasons cause it makes such a huge difference to the game having weather.

    I love several things in The Sims series -- vampire, and dogs most notably. But Seasons is the one I cannot do without.

    I voted Seasons, but I need them all at this point!

    City Living because of gameplay, Get Together because of Windenburg.

    You need an option in your poll for "none of the above". I got the base game during the recent free offer (after resisting migrating from TS3 for years), and have 2 packs - a game pack and a stuff pack, Spa Day and Perfect Patio. That's all I need to be enjoying my simming!

    At some point, I will want to evaluate Expansions to see if I feel like they have a lot to add. So far, I don't. Naturally, others' milage may vary.

    Cats & Dogs
    It was between cats and dogs or get together for me. I enjoy the animals so much and think they are so cute. Get together makes my social events easier and is incredibly important to my gameplay. I would get rid of seasons just to keep these two.

    All of them except seasons.

    I know seasons is the most popular but overall it just adds inconvenience. Holidays are great in theory but after a few I just feel like they present a checklist of things I feel forced to do.

    The weather is nice and pretty to look at but ultimately it’s just an inconvenience. It forces you to stay indoors on certain days and it can even kill your sim and npc sims. I feel forced to stay at home on extreme weather days so random npc sims don’t die.

    Seasons adds no new town or career.

    The miscellaneous things added really add nothing. Ice and roller skating, snow men, water balloon buckets, leaf piles, etc... they all add nothing to gameplay. If roller rinks and ice arenas were added as venues, that would have been cool, but they weren’t.

    All the other expansions added something that really added hours to my gameplay. But seasons just feels like nothing more than a coating of pretty paint.

    All of them because the base game is dry and even with them, I have to download Mods. LOL. I chose randomly.

    However, I agree that Seasons should come with the base game. The fact that after 4 sim games we still have to buy it in a separate package is just greedy on their part, imo.
    supersonic, simobotic, disconnected, not respected, who would ever really wanna go and top that?

    With the addition of custom holidays and the calendar, I honestly can't imagine this game without 'Seasons' now.

    Seasons. It just gives the game play so much more. Recently in my game my "4th of July" like summer holiday got rained out so we I had to come up with a while new plan to celebrate. I like that it adds a bit of unpredictability.

    Seasons! It just adds so much to the game in the sense of time going by.

    The island in Windenburg is still my favorite place for my Sim to live. You get to experience all four seasons there, too.

    Yeah the thing I don't like about seasons is that the weather is usually "bad" regardless of season. Windy/cloudy/rainy/heatwave bad day for screenshots. Ok, I guess that's realistic but still :D there's just so few sunny, normal days. I also hate the automatic bunting that gets attached to all my lots, is there a way to disable this?
