I don't think "City life" refers to nightlife

I think it's more related to cities/politics, since the recording that was leaked seemed like a new political career..(maybe playin mayor as an active career) who knows
So i think it's hard to relate this EP to a 'nightlife' theme..although I'd prefer the nightlife theme over the political one..
Anyone else thinks that?

To be really honest i think EA should finish all nightlife related packs before moving on on a completely new theme..
Politics isn't what missing now, to be honest what's really missing right now and needed is generations EP with toddlers
But since EA seems to be ignoring that and focusing on YA packs then nightlife themes need to be finished and baked completely before moving on another theme..
Late night features were thrown separately and are scattered around in TS4 unlike in Sims 3 it came as a whole EP..
We still nightlife features like glass ball nightclub lights, celebrities, vampires, paparazzi, subways, dive bars, BANDS and Gigs, Elevators and penthouses!
"Create a vibrant and evolving new town for your Sims to explore! Build out your town with new venues including pop-up restaurants, coffee shops, farmers’ markets, amongst others. Change the rules of your town by becoming Mayor and making your own laws or use new neighborhood editing tools to fully customize your town as you see fit!"
That would be a gigantic step in the right direction for me. But I'm not counting on it because I don't want to be disappointed again...
Get together was full of it, game already had the "life of the party" add on, already had nightclubs places to party seeing as you could just had a few things here and there like music bar etc and it was be a proper nightclub (without GT), bars which was pretty nightlifey which was kinda in the base game already, lounges which could be fun in the night so yeah I suppose
Would want the cuddling in the bed feature to return because that was sooo cute !!!
I think it's able to be missing multiple things
Late night features were in the base game of Sims 4, which I loved. It was awesome not to have to wait and spend an extra $40 just so my Sims could have a social life that included a bar. More would be nice. "Dive bars" are just bars with grungier decor and not so much food, though; we can make those now without them having a different name. Elevators and penthouses are about places to live, not about nightlife. I suppose a disco ball would be fun; I have seen a real one in decades, so it's a bit retro AFAIK. Bands would be cool. Vampires would be ok if done well. I'd rather have Sims 2 style apartments than those, if they were making the decisions now, and get those fully done well later. I imagine it's a good trick getting bands to work well.
<-- is just back from the bar IRL
To be fair, showtime did not come with a 'city' world and the content included only pertained to performing in one of the three career paths added to the game. The only aspect of LN that it built upon were performances which were barely a thing in LN anyway.
Late Night (and Nightlife) centered around going out and doing night time activities. Bars and clubs arent usually open during the day, unless there is some sort of cuisine component there too.
I would say 'Late Night' content was covered in a single EP.
ETA: I like the political aspect of it; i.e. Making new 'laws' and such, shaping your world through the community inhabiting it. I would like to see some variation. The base game came with bars, and clubs; Get Together expanded upon bars and clubs - In my opinion they have spent enough time focusing on the night life. There are far more aspects to city life than the night life aspect. Hopefully this EP captures than instead of throwing more party content our way.
Showtime fleshed out the nightlife scene though, with DJ booths, pool tables, juke boxes etc. Late Night added the bars and ability to go out, but it was lacking quite a few things to actually do.
to understand the city life is to understand that there is a day life and a night life in the city soooo it's both.
Even if it s not nightlife I hope it has an attraction system,online dating,the slowdance and other new romantic animations.
They could still throw in more venues for dating like cinemas and bowling alleys.
I think things you mentioned might come in Get Love GP or EP but i think it's highly unlikely to come in a City inspired EP..
But i hope you're right..i want these more than anything especially attraction system.
