these have enhanced the experience of playing, adding more hours to the play time. MCCC has also left its mark, but so has meaningful stories, NPCC and a few other adult mods to bring out a more realistic experience to playing. I moved across to City Living and that also expanded out my reach another 1,000 hours. Seasons proved to be a massive disappointment in value, it's priced as an expac but really it's nothing more than a stuff pack in actual value. Started out with Get Together, that added 1,300 hours on top of the 300 hours from the base game, it's that type of freedom and sorely needed expansion that really brings out the quality, then i got a bundle with seasons.
I've got the majority of the DLC's, missing the kits and stuff packs at this point, however i've gotten 6,600 hours out of this game almost non-stop since the middle of 2019 when i first started and it's been a blast.
