    Yay. Parenthood is leading.

    Yes that is quite surprising considering the main feature of the pack is broken for many people :/

    I feel a bit like a traitor, seeing that I have so much fun with Batuu at the moment. But objectively it's really only middling, I'm using a lot of mods to achieve what I want for my save and it's hardly content I use in every save, so I cannot vote for the pack.

    (Werewolves, Dine Out and Strangerville for me)

    Strangerville, Jungle Adventure, Outdoor Retreat for me. I like a mystery story environment with things to look for.

    Parenthood
    Spa Day
    Dine Out.

    Same.

    @Lenny_Ogg : I admit I love DHD! 😊 DHD is my #4 because of the bb. I know it’s strange that I rank it relatively high just for that, but I like to build and decorate, and I use this bb all the time. I also use some of the cas quite often. Overall, I’m using aspects of this pack almost constantly in my game. I can’t say that for some of my other GPs. I’ve never played the career, though. I’ll probably try it out one day to see whether I actually have the bug. But for now I assume I do, and that’s why it’s my #4 instead of my #2.

    It's always hard for me to name a favorite pack. The packs with the subject matter I find the most appealing, the packs I thought were best executed, the packs whose gameplay I use the most frequently, the packs whose CAS and BB is the most "me," etc., are all different packs.

    The most favorite is RoM, every one of my sims are casters so I play with this pack, a lot.

    Next is Spa Day, again, I use this game pack every day...most of the b/b in cas.

    Third place is a tie between Jungle Adventure and OR. I love sending my sims to both locations on sightseeing trips and fishing expeditions. B)

    Thats gotta be some site bias cause how is dream home decorator the *best* game pack with so many options that have way more gameplay and way less bugs thats just wild to me

    I voted for Vampires, Werewolves and Spa Day

    it broke my heart to not vote some others
    (like Strangerville I love Strangerville)

    but I also admit to myself that Strangerville, Jungle Adventure or say RoM could have been so much better with some additional things so I don't really put them on same tier no matter how much I love /use them

    Oh my heart, what sorrow, I could only choose three! I had to abandon Jungle Adventure, such cruelty! But I was compelled to vote for the Occult of three; Vampires, Werewolves and Realm of Magic...the Unholy Trinity! πŸ–€

    But I'll weep for thee, my second three; Jungle Adventure, Journey to Batuu, and Strangerville...for escapades of thrilling frivolity!

    Vampires, Jungle Adventure... and then I was torn between Strangerville and Spa Day. I picked Spa Day this time.

    Vampires, Weres & Dine Out!

    I agree it's weird to see DHD placing so high. I tried to play it not long ago and it simply didn't work. I guess it's builders voting it.

    - Werewolves
    - Vampires
    - Realm of Magic

    Occult love πŸ–€... I still haven't played a spellcaster though. 🫣

    James Turner has been doing community polls every year now to see how people rank packs. Dream Home Decorator won #1 for 2023 (& 2022 he says).

    Realm of magic, werewolves and jungle adventure. In the other thread these were my top 3 (together with spa day but that's mainly for the yoga and bath soaks)

    I am not surprised by parenthood leading. It is not my primary focus but it's a good pack. Dream home decorator in second place feels off. The gameplay is building so I guess this shows many players just want to build.

    Journey to batuu is last, no surprise. It got a few votes at least. I enjoyed the pack even if it is not top tier for me.

    @SimplyJen did he say (or has he an idea) why Simmers chose Dream Home Decorator over all other packs?
    This seems so strange to me. Oder did I miss something? I barely ever use something of this pack because the colors/swatches/style of the furniture are so unappealing to me and never match with the other stuff.

    Parenthood
    Jungle adventure… Wish sims could live there.
    And Outdoor Retreat.

    I also use Spa day a lot, and love the snap together furniture in Dream Home decorator, and had a bit of fun with the career. I love all the CAS and build stuff with wedding stories, cakes and flowers too.

    @Lenny_Ogg timestamp 21:05 He goes over it.

    There's a few BB & CAS things I like. I've only played the active career once... never again.

    @SimplyJen thank you! I made a screenshot from the results of the James Turner Poll from the video linked above.
    This is actually a really good poll because it involves the worlds, gameplay, how many of the voting Simmers actually own the pack, build mode and CAS.

    I think they are all great depending on your playstyle. It just depends on what you want to do. It's true that they are a pretty good value. If I wasn't sure about the theme then I've waited for a sale because there are always aspects that I appreciate.

    I'm honestly someone who plays with Dream Home Decorator sometimes and finds it fun, so I get it. It's gameplay for build mode. Also, it is kind of fun to make decorators and then to be inspired when going around a rotation meeting my different houses. You can turn the houses from bland and generic into customized ones that you like. When I revisit a house where I had a decorator go in, I can always tell. I think most people like the CAS/BB but it's a fun pack. I've been lucky enough that it runs smoothly and I haven't had bugs.

    I think it's good that they have options for different themes whether you want to play with families, with supernatural characters, with travel or with other types of added features. I really like having venues to send my sims to like the restaurants, spas and other spaces. Also, I love Tartosa and would just like if I could edit the world a bit more but even so I think it's great. I use it as both a vacation and a residential world.
