His dad ... wanted to get stronger, buy a car, plan a new everyday outfit.
These wants aren't new. I've had sims roll them up before. The "get stronger" want rolls up for sims who have some athletic skill, and the other two wants tend to roll up for sims who have the snob trait.
I don't believe I said they're new, did I?
The difference between "Rolling wants that any sim can roll" and "Midlife crisis" are that these wants don't have the same requirements (the sim doesn't have to be athletic at all to want to become stronger) and the wants cannot be deleted if you choose to approve them until the crisis is over (it lasts a week). It's not like "Haha they let your sim GET THE SAME WANTS AS ALWAYS!", the wants are stuff that you have to work for (unlike, say, "Eat waffles"), and they're wants your sim might not usually get (A frugal sim doesn't really often want a new car for no reason) or might not EVER get. That's the whole point.

You implied they were new when you said this:

Also, the expansion seems very bare until you really start getting into it.
I wouldn't say changing when pre-existing wants roll up is particularly exciting or worth raving about. Don't say you weren't raving about the feature since you were trying to tell us why at second look Generations is more zOMG AWESOME than you first thought.
Is there anything for adults in this EP besides more of my sims getting the wants I tend to control-click away (you can't have a car, you've already maxed out athletic, and if I wanted to change your look, I would have done it already) and buggy dates?

Stargazing? Having your SO accuse you of cheating?
Not much honestly.

Add to the fucked list: photography is not working anymore. Read the book to gain 3 points of skill, grab the camera bought on a consignemnt store and voilą: point, shoot and sim got stuck doing nothing. Of course he got charged for the photo and couldn't move until "resetsim". The camera doesn't even mark potential themes anymore; it acts like the cell camera now. I didn't patch the game yet, and since there's no patch for WA I doubt it will be fixed now. Thanks for borking this one, EA.
BlueSoup:
I had that photography bug. Every time I restarted the game, it was borked. Now it's working again all of a sudden. No idea what the hell happened.
