I know this is kind of controversial since a lot of people didn't like the addition of a little rpg storyline (for reasons I don't understand) in Sims 4 when Strangerville was released but I personally wish that having some kind of storyline had become standard for each of the packs.
It gave the world purpose, it made interacting with random sims more fun, and it made things interesting having sims try to infect my mystery Inc group lol..
So.. why not add stories that fit to packs/expansions/etc so they don't feel so dead? Even if it's just a little one and even if it's optional unless you deliberately start it.
Vampires, Werewolves, Sulani, University, Realm of Magic, Paranormal.. The Star Wars Pack >.>.. there are tons of packs that could have little rpg stories attached that just.. didn't. And it kind of just felt like "you introduced this cool new thing but there is nothing to do in it, it's just like everywhere else even when the lore/possibility is there for it to have a storyline you can explore so why is it just.. not there?"
Maybe I'm just being demanding

similar thoughts about premade lore its sometimes nice to have little bit for inspiration but if every family has predetermined lives then what I am even playing for

Maybe next time we get a perfectly mundane world where a gang spies on the local museum inpreparation for a heist, and when the player triggers a certain point, that heist and its results (police presence, a completely trashed museum and randomly missing residents taken as hostages) go into effect. It doesn't always have to be supernatural.
In contrast to Strangerville, I'd want skills to matter a little more in the next story pack, that is my only gripe. For example all the serum making in Strangerville should have required high logic skill and the player then would have needed to decide whether they want to raise their own logic of befriend a scientist to move in. (That would of course require premades get equipped with the needed skills beforehand).
We went there several times and I built a lot of themed lots and let stories happen there.
I also love Jungle Adventure and Batuu for it's gameplay and would love to play more packs like these.
