    I know! I kinda wanna download a bunch of user-created stuff to fill up Newcrest, which is a completely empty town, but they often use stuff packs and game packs that I don't have yet. So that'll have to wait Although stuff packs come out like once a month now, so that could be difficult

    You'd be surprised how many base game compatible houses and community lots there are, actually. Many designers pride themselves on using only the items included in the base game.

    So Fynn, how many expansion packs have been created for The Sims 4, now? 2-3?

    There's two expansion packs - Get to Work and Get Together.

    Get to Work is kind of like Ambitions, in that you get three careers that you get control of and they're super awesome. You also get a photography skill and the means to run your own business, like a shop.

    Get Together is all about hanging out with friends, but like I said, it's much better than any previous expansions similar to it thanks to the addition of clubs which offer a fantastic degree of freedom in their customization.

    Overall, while the base game is lacking compared to that of TS3, the expansions are really pretty phenomenal, adding so much more to the game than the ones in 2 or 3.

    'Get' is the theme, I've noticed. 'Get to Work' sounds somewhat pointed, though!

    Get to Work sounds like a hodgepodge of Ambitions (which was a great expansion), Open for Business from TS2 and a smidge of World Adventures with the photography skill. Is there self-employment? I loved being a self-employed writer/musician/workout trainer.

    I don't think so. But those careers are there and there is some work at home involved.

    And the added careers are actually much better implemented than in Ambitions, with the detective combining investigating out in town and desk work. And discussing stuff with coworkers is always fun - there's an option of discussing office romances, for example.

    And yeah, I wonder if the get thing will stick. Get Hairy for Pets, anyone?

    I remember investigations working pretty well in Ambitions, too.

    But the crime stuff is really cool this time around. You even get to interrogate witnesses at the police stations, like, slamming your fists on the table and everything. And then you get to put convicts behind bars right there at the station

    I'm actually really hopeful for the future. The base game may be lacking, but damn if they aren't loading the expansion packs to the brim with content!
