Search Story Progression by Sims Community on youtube, he read off what was on the survey last year. If we'll get anything else from that survey, we probably will eventually.
I sure hope we get the other survey options American high school, shopping malls, bands, body hair, love and romance are all the things I wanted from it.
Sims 4 went from "You Rule" to "One of the stories we want you to tell"
I also feel like there was something that sounded a lot like what they did with the love after break up scenario
like sims start with different type of relationships or whatever from cas cannot remember the wording
Now your neighbours come to life.
Sims outside of your household live their lives from birth, marriage and death.
Imagine the possibilities when the drama can start next door.
Yeah it seems like it. I guess the question remains how much of that survey that got approved for production. They listed a lot of different options in the survey that ended up being Snow Escape but only a few things listed made it into the pack.
Based on the survey I think these things might come in the future:
Growing Pains and Life Issues
Life is hard. Now your sims feel those physical and emotional changes as they grow up. Realistic reactions and emotions bring deeper connections to the world around them.
Deepening the existing content
Long term desires
Connections to family members outside of the household
Being born with traits
Short term desires
Control of Sims that are not currently on the active lot
Emotions
Consequences of making or breaking relationships
Developing traits over time
Family evolution outside the household
I think these will be updates. The short term and long term desires sound like a whim overhaul. Also sound like we might get an emotions overhaul too.
Modern Love and Romance
From love at first sight to digital dating, discover a wide variety of relationship types for your Sims. Explore their desires, taste and preference. Take them on a journey to discover what works for them.
Bands
Go solo or build your super group, find your style and perform your way from YouTube celebrity to sold out stadiums. Feel the pressure and demands of keeping the band together, record company demands and the needs of your adoring fans.
Heists
Whether you’re an aspiring Debbie or Danny Ocean, build your team to seek out and recover the stolen artifacts to return them to their rightful owners. Can you execute the perfect plan, or will your team end up in the slammer?
A lot of ppl have been asking for a romance pack and also a bands pack. Idk if this will be coming this year or not. I'm not sure if there are any packs that have been in previous surveys that haven't come yet. And heists along with a highschool pack would be interesting to see.

I think you are correct, however I don't think they will be large overhauls... I think we will rather see more development on existing features like sentiments and neighborhood stories and maybe some new developed features like desires.

I was thinking desires would just be a whim overhaul rather than a seperate feature.
Hopefully we'll be able to toggle story progression on or off.
I really really hope there is an off button. I am already tired of the pop ups for likes and dislikes. Now we are getting pop ups for this. We will never get to play a normal game with all these pop ups. I also play on rotation and I don't want this system messing with my sims.
When they gave us these surveys, they were all things that they were going to do anyway, just didn't know which one first
Also, my personal suspicion is that Story Progression will not be anything like as good as people think. We'll probably be called up by our neighbours for every little choice they want to make, and if as for the ones who don't call, they won't make any changes.
Prepping a list of mods to add after Infants are placed into the game. Because real life isn't 'nice'.

Yes, and exactly that part can become VERY annoying. Like, I don't care if my neighbors are getting married or having children..
They better give us the option to turn off these phone calls completely and let Sims make their own decisions.
I personally like the idea that we can make decisions for sims that are not in our rotation, but I don’t want them making these decisions for those I rotate with.

They did say that there will be autonomous changes.

First time I've seen this. I don't know why anyone bothers taking the surveys because what they propose is never delivered. Where's the 'drama' from the so called story progression update? I haven't heard a word from Simmers how much drama happened after they advised a Sim to do this or that....such hype. Anyone who was hoping the story progression turned out the way they promoted it in the survey should have just hit the delete button and emptied the recycle bin and not even bothered to check yes for NPC Story Progression.

Surveys are meant to list ideas... They had a survey a couple of years ago that listed a bunch of different features that we later saw in Snowy Escape and Lifestyles. I think that survey had features like snowmobiles etc.
It's up to Maxis to decide how to best implement some of these features based on the people that they have available and their allocated time and budget...
Same with story progression and the things they listed in that survey.

We may get an option to turn that off in Game Settings in the 2nd Update to Story Progression.

I remember seeing npc sims asking your sims to marry them in that survey. I doubt we ll get this in the first part of story progression.

PLEASE GIVE US AN OFF BUTTON.

Here’s hoping! 🤞🌈
They did say that there will be autonomous changes.
I try to look at what they have made in the past, and set my expectations from there.
But even if I do that, Maxis still manages to both surprise me and disappoint me.
They really need to add aunts, uncles, in-laws and step kids to the relationship panel.
Growing Pains and Life Issues sounds interesting.
