Well the comparison isnt really fair, because Sims has three tiers of expansions with different price points.

$20 Stuff packs - more chairs and clothes
$30 Game Packs - A new gameplay feature like new skills and their related career, plus some chairs and clothes related to it.
$40 Expansion packs - Multiple new gameplay features, multiple sets of chairs and clothes, and usually new world/neighborhood themed around that stuff.

While this is true, there are wide varieties in the Expansion passes, too. Some are great and add a lot of new gameplay, and some are "The same stuff you can already do but it's in an area that looks different."

Comparatively, the AC DLC is basically Expansion pass level, but for $15 cheaper. Or $5 more than "more chairs and clothes."

Either way, I didn't mean for this to turn into bashing/defending Sims. It just seems kinda silly to compare the two, especially when you consider this is one DLC pack for AC which was formerly a $40 game, vs. hundreds of dollars of DLC for Sims and most of it being the "more chairs" type.
