I think we're getting an island vacation world. And hopefully a romance pack after that.
I'm not feeling an island vacation world -- we just got Jungle Adventure earlier this year, so it's too soon for another vacation pack. Plus they could have added the stuff we get on the free update to that pack.
The last two packs have been old favorites (Pets and Seasons) so I think the next pack will be something totally different. People will complain that "no one asked for this" but as the release gets closer they'll see th benefits of it. No idea what the theme will be though.

I feel like it would be too weird to have two EPs release consecutively without at least one GP or SP in between. It doesn't fit the pattern that TS4 has followed so far

I'm hoping for a Witches GamePack or Celebrity/superstar remake Expansion.
I never really cared about University. I think the University expansions in the past didn't add much benefit of going to University (except for starting 1 or 2 levels higher when joining a career. It just didn't have enough impact imo.
I can see the appeal though, because it's such a meaningful thing in life.
I hope if we get a University EP, that it will be more important and have a bigger impact on the Sims for the rest of their lives.
It would also be nice to not only focus on ''University'' but also on pre-school/daycare and the school the kids go to, but that probably will be too much for an EP (considering the state of past EP's).
Another thing I loved was ''The Sims 2 - Freetime'' it added so many hobbies to the game. It really helped to create different stories for all my Sims because they all had different hobbies. I hope they will also bring that back one day.
And oh; a proper Generations pack that focuses not only on ''Parenting'' but on the life stages instead. They can give canes to elders, strollers to toddlers, unchain babies from the cribs, bring back family/kids activities.
Parenthood was good, but it wasn't enough for family play imo.

They have told us that they are changing up the way they have done things. Dropping those nine second teasers is one example. When will players begin to believe it?

@rudy8292 I really liked Superstar too. I'd love for an updated remake of it with a few new twists and surprises. Fingers crossed one day maybe.
I'd also be happy with witches (my second favorite occult) but I'd rather it be a Magic EP with a CAS system for any magical creature (witch, elf, fairy, genie, etc. the basic magic is the same) and a updated remake of Makin' Magic with a magic full sized world.
I would like to see that but she need to avoid dogs, she would become an instant magnet.

Oh yeah, that's true. 🤔 Seasons came out unexpectedly in the middle of the year. Back-to-back EPs that are about 4-6 months apart would be okay for me. The next GP/SP can wait. If it's an EP, I hope it's good.

And yeah, I loved Superstar too. The celebrity/band system in Late Night and the Showtime careers don't exactly scratch the same itch. Superstar had more than just a musical career, and it had more taped/recorded performances as opposed to live ones.

I would say a GP. Firstly because it would be very strange for them to release 2 EPs back to back with no other cheaper DLC in between and secondly because they take a little less time to make and we got the last one back in February.

I would prefer to see something new, we'll get the old packs like Uni etc regardless otherwise people would riot but if they keep doing them first who knows if we'll see anything new that we've never had before?
A CNN special??? How grand in scope is this update? Short of an overhaul of the game's core systems, it seems excessive. Not even toddlers got this treatment, and it was a highly requested feature and entirely new life stage.
They also dampened the hype for the gallery patch, so it would be strange for them to overhype now

Well it better be one BIG update then...too much overhype could lead to a lot more backlash than usual. It better be something really good; what exactly needs new Simlish phrases for a game patch?
Could be the disabilities patch. That's certainly news worthy.
Yeah. I was talking with a friend and she thinks so too. It does make sense that they would want the general public to know about this to increase goodwill

> I don't want any celeb based packs.
To be honest, in Sims 3 i never cared for my sims being a celebrity, it kind of was weird. I rather just have a regular human sim that not popular lol

It'll mean my excitement will be doubled than what I expected should it actually be something that I really, really wanted.

A million times yes! We need more careers, I'd even go for a rabbithole careers mega update right about now.
I hope it's like a hobbies or beach vacation GP
