Next Expansion

[Pac]

What do you think will be the next expansion pack or what would you like to see next?

I want an EP which focus completely on occults. Give me a proper world which is darker and give occults which are just *shallow* proper skills as example mermaids/aliens. I know that this will never happen, the only things which maybe come is a fairy’s GP.

So, my guess is the next EP is called: Kiddy School, create school for kids and visit school with your kids (which the end is recycling from HSY content).

Nah, truly it will just again a boring RL thing be. I don’t mind these things, but this year(2023) was ONLY boring RL-stuff, a little more … something other would be nice.

Ahhh... There's my TS4 dream come true, a proper upgrade to all occults. But same here, alas..no expectation for it. At very least, I believe enough players do want a faeries GP so I'm hopeful for their addition as something similar to the others. Hey, I'll take it. :)

It depends such as what to expect for the next for the next expansion pack vs. an idea for the next expansion pack that would be more realistic. Some people (but not everyone) might expect cars to come eventually as an expansion pack but that is highly unlikely even with teasers just like real unicorns will probably never happen on The Sims 4. I also doubt we will ever have actual hotels from an expansion pack despite it being highly requested similar to cars, but more likely to be added in the future than a cars expansion pack. As for more likely expansion packs coming in the future I am not certain, but it might include resorts (but not certain about hotels) since even Island Living does not have resorts, bands (mainly because EA has surprised us before my making Horse Ranch an expansion pack instead of gamepack), another futuristic expansion pack besides Eco Lifestyle (but only if EA starts running out of other unique ideas for expansion packs) that would perhaps be something like Eco Lifestyle 2.0 despite Eco Lifesyle's mixed reviews on Steam, a Grim Reaper expansion pack (which again EA might surprise us with this similar to Horse Ranch), and/or another Medieval based expansion pack besides Get Together (which is at least partially based on Medieval) that would feel like Get Together 2.0 but with a much smaller world that probably never will be more popular than Get Together despite the fact that one of the next kit packs is supposed to be Medieval based as well.

I've seen hotels mentioned as something plausible for an upcoming pack. Hopefully, they wouldn't do another dirty trick and make DLC for DLC with hotels as an add on for the For Rent Exp. I highly doubt that, though. I'd like to believe they've learned a lesson from My First Pet Stuff.

How would they do a full Grim Reaper EP? Not that I wouldn't love the idea! I'd just think that would be more a GP or maybe even an SP.

If I'm honest, I don't know what would be exciting about cars in TS4 but I suppose they could make something of that. Whatever they do, I just hope it's fresh. I feel like players have grown very tired of recycled content.

Unfortunately, the longer The Sims 4 continues to make dlc the more likely EA is going to make recycled expansion packs. Horse Ranch is a combination of recycled Cottage Living and recycled Cats & Dogs, For Rent is recycled City Living at least to some extent, and My FIrst Pet is a dlc for a dlc (which I am hoping will never happen again). Growing Together is popular on Steam but has other stuff similar to this that on The Sims 3 was only one pack originally called Generations such as My Wedding Stories, Parenthood, Highschool Years, Kid's Room, and Toddler. If The SIms 4 continues to make dlc even after Project Rene comes out officially then more recycled content is inevitable especially for expansion packs. Part of the reason why I am thinking eventually at some point expansion packs should perhaps come out only once a year instead of two or three times a year just like the year 2022 with HSY.

Contrary to resorts I think that hotels are more likely to be a gamepack than an expansion pack. I would be surprised if we get a pack for hotels, but the chances for a hotel gamepack I think are higher than a hotel expansion pack for reasons that should be obvious. Especially with For Rent, but hopefully not a dlc for a dlc. Another possibility is combining both resorts and hotels together into one expansion pack, but I would be very surprised if that were to ever happen.

I know its unlikely fairies get an EP and will likely just be a GP, and honestly i dont even care about fairies, but you got me thinking. If fairies did get a EP it would be possible to have your typical happy fairy neighborhood, but you could also do a Sleepy Hollow like neighborhood and maybe the third neighborhood could be a magic forest which is sometimes happy and other times dark and terrifying. As for gameplay im not sure what a fairy expansion really would offer? Making it an occult EP is hard because zombies and mummies dont work with fairies thematically and genies dont work with the world im suggesting. I guess they could add pseudodragons again but yeah i really dont see much. Witches just overlap with spellcasters.

I really do like the idea of a larger dark world.

I want zombies and natural disasters. Floods, tornados, and earthquakes that actually matter! And nuke/plague/parasite zombies!

I've played that game, only not in sims. ;)

Would be a load of fun to play with sims having to live through the mess we make though :3

As an offset to the chaos and on the side of order, this could make emergency services a playable career.

Bahh! Who needs coppers when you've got zombies, plague and every flavour of natural disaster? Sims will need basements..multi-level basements. Let's hope they've saved their simoleons.
