Everyone acts like it is confirmed EP in the fall, but what if it takes longer for the next EP to come? I know it sounds unlikely, but..

Then they will have missed the holiday shopping season and subjected their biggest paid release of the year to a harsher sales environment.
no biggie

Maxis won't miss the most important moment of the year, TS4 console is not enough.
"WHAT IF"
It will change nothing for me, I'm already happy and busy with the current 20 packs.
I think LATER means BETTER.

The Sims 4 General DiscussionIn all seriousness though, release date leaks are usually quite accurate. Plus, they've had an EP out in time for christmas for a few years now. If we don't get an EP, we'll probably get a GP with features that have proved popular by previous games. They want something for those christmas sales.

Based on the recent "EP" featuring cool backdrops, clothes and...Oh, yeah that's it, I rather resources go for more game packs because they really are great.
I think we will get an EP based on the fact that it would be an abysmal business decision to not bring one out.
But at the same time, it isn't EA that is hinting at Pets this year. It is the community taking anything that remotely hinting pets and spreading rumors that it is definitely coming this year. So it probably is better to have high hopes but be ready for a let down.
EA generally prefers to only release SPs though but know that GPs or EPs are necessary too to keep people interested. But it could seem like EA now prefers to release 2 to 3 GPs each year and strongly considers to only release 4 SPs too and no EPs. But could 2 to 3 GPs each year not be satisfying too?
Which I'm actually ok with. I like the fact that packs are more focused so that if you don't want something in your game, you don't have to get it. I really wish they skipped the whole alien thing in GTW and just focused on retail and business ownership more. Both were lacking, imo. And I wanted the retail gameplay, but not the aliens.
And vampires is another example. In previous iterations they were lumped in with EPs, but got their own focus this time. Players who enjoy vampires were satiated sufficiently (ha!) while those who don't enjoy supernatural could skip it, which I did. It's the only pack I've done so, up to this point.
So I say more GPs please! The only EPs left that I want are Pets, Seasons and depending on how it's implemented, University. But Uni could easily be a GP. After that, more focused GP themes would do just fine.
