Pets, Supernatural or Island Paradise?
Trying to decide on one of the three. I have all of the other expansions.

I vote Supernatural.

Supernatural is great (content-wise), but if can really change your game a lot. If you're into Harry Potter type universes though, it's awesome.

Pets is also a game changer. Once installed, you'll get strays, wild horses, etc. This is actually the pack I reccomend everyone gets (along with World Adventures and Seasons).

I actually had a blast with Island Paradise, but I wouldn't reccomend it as my "first" expansion. It doens't bring a whole lot of new stuff to the table (although the houseboats are, admittedly, really awesome).

So I'd say Pets or Supernatural, but you really should pick up WA and Seasons eventually ;)

I have all of the expansions except for the three I mentioned. So WA and Seasons are already installed.

Avoid Island paradise at all costs. It's by the far the buggiest and laggiest, even with heavy modding to try and fix it. I like the idea of it, but it's just handled very badly, which is a shame since as above, those house boats are pretty awesome, and diving is neat if limited, but it's just too much frustration to deal with.

Supernatural gets my vote as well. Just get the mod to disable zombies spawning during Full moons and it's golden. That's it's only issue, cause zombies are dumb and will cause all sorts of annoying routing errors.

I heavily regret buying pets, cause once it's installed you get wild-life even if you disable pet adoptions, and they can and will find every little hole in the routing to clog the game up.

So, Supernatural is the least flawed from a technical perspective? All right, then. I'll go with it.

I'd say that's a fair statement, although the last patch helped out Island Paradise a lot.

Pets can still be a bit... wonky sometimes.

@ kaiyl_kariashi: I htought you could disable wandering animals in the Options... I'll have to go check tonight
