Ohh controversial, I know but think about it at the start of this game they said this game will last 5 years ok fine we said we will enjoy that and I think it's safe to say we have we still do enjoy it now back in 2017 the Gurus said we have 3 more years of the Sims 4 that was 2 years ago this quote people picked up and have ran with whenever someone mentions the Sims 5 you get someone scream NOOO 3 MORE YEARS THEY SAID 3 MORE YEARS. but look at the facts SP's & GP's seem to have disappeared (although I do like getting 2EP's a year). This year on the EA jobs page they advertised for a new team to work on the next game in The Sims this all points towards a new game and I believe a new game engine.
I see 2 perhaps even 1 more year of the sims remember the hype train for TS4 started about a year before it was released even the packs were released you may get your 3 years but don't expect the new dev team to keep quiet next year we will see (possibly September) the Sims 5 Hype begin.

oh my mistake grant did say that but I honestly believe that sometime in 2020 we will get the game because then we reach a milestone of 20 years of the sims and that's amazing perhaps they could bring back the original worlds from the Sims 2 and stuff.
We do not know for sure that the new game they are hiring for is Sims 5. If it is, this game will take years to develop, just like the previous base games did. It is still possible that the game that's in development is a stand-alone or offshoot game. Nothing has been verified.
Stuff Packs? Yes Perhaps. I agree. They seem to start to release less Stuff Packs per year. But then, it does not mean that we are not going to see them next year. Game Packs? Np, they don't seem to disappear but instead we are following a normal pattern for game packs. Every year starting 2015 there is a pattern of game packs released. 2015 has 2, 2016 has 1, 2017 has 2, and 2018 has 1 game pack. It is possible that we will have another game pack by January/First quarter of the year as the voice recording seems finished and before the holidays. They are working also on multiple packs at the same time. So their GP team is probably wrapping up GP7 before the holidays, and perhaps first weeks of Q1.

So for me.. I sure hope we get 3 more years!

I just want the devs to get enough time to get it right at release -- meaning no missing life stages, and if they still go with the emotional system, fine tune it that it actually has meaning (less "happy" and more "fine" would suit me, and less of an emotional rollercoaster where a Sad Sim immediately becomes Happy when they enter a nicely decorated room). Maybe less of the extreme emotions and get rid of the emotional deaths.

Amen to that!
I honestly am not at all eagre to see 5. They need to take their time and do it not just right, but make it amazing.
Perhaps because I am now to where I have 2, 3 an 4 all installed at the same time and don't have to 'pick one' to play (thanks Santa for the additional hard drive!), I'm perfectly happy just playing these 3 sims games...forever. If they don't make the base game for 5 so amazing that I won't be able to resist, I'll be passing on it.
It surprised me to find that people are still making NEW cc for Sims 2 even. That game has some legs.

Maybe you should expect they will release SimCity 6, it would get the same effect.

The Sims 3 players on the day of TS4 base game release: "Urgh lack of content!"
*many expansion packs and stuff packs later*
"Wow TS4 is so amazing!"
You need to give TS4 some time - I honestly think it's a great game (I was a hater of the sims 4 on the day when it released - I should have given it a chance)
*In the future*
Players of the TS4: "Why isn't The Sims 5 like the Sims 4, they removed so much content!"
^ I predict this future.

The Sims 4 could be maintained 6 or 7 years without problem (10 or 12 EPs).

The Sims 4 General DiscussionJust like an Expansion Pack isn't done in two weeks. (And there are still people who talk to the Devs as if they didn't know that)
There is still a lot they could do to the Game.
After Seasons came out, the entire Sims team made sure to let us know it is still content being made and planned for years to come.
Graham I think was it that said that it would be at least 3 years. As we are now 4 years in, we just about got a bit more than half of what TS4 will end up having in the end, if that is true.
I do hope for 3 more years, I really would like to see 3 more years (if not more) of stuff added to TS4....but lets not kid ourselves that it is a sure thing, regardless of what has been said or planned.

Sims 4 was at an additional disadvantage because so much key content was missing from the base game -- toddlers, pools, ghosts, etc. I really didn't consider Sims 4 BG to be complete until January 2017 when we got Attack of the Killer Cuteness aka the Toddler patch. I know a lot of players want playable babies, but I'm not sure how they add them in at this point without ruining existing saves that have the object babies already. (That could be one argument for a Sims 5; improved life stages especially babies and teens.) I liked some of the features that were added in Sims 4 BG, such as bars/lounges/nightclubs -- and DLC like GT for nightclubs and GF for lounges (though I wish there was a way to keep the NPC entertainers from interfering with my entertainers, and the Talent Showcases seriously need some tweaking) have made those BG venues even better. I remember that people preferred the professional bars from Late Night to the useless "juice bars" in Sims 3, and I beiieve that the Sims 4 bars were in response to those requests.
I feel like Sims 4 is just now hitting its prime -- we've got a decent mix of content for the single YA Sims, and the past two years have seen a renewed emphasis on family content. The next two to three years should be interesting to watch; there definitely is enough content out there (University, Farming, "Off the Grid", etc.) to make plenty of additional content, and that's not even counting additional occults for players that favor that sort of play. And who knows what ideas the devs might come up with that might never occur to the average community member?

Not all of those have to be EPs either, or standalone packs; we could see bands added to a University pack, for example, since some of the features of past University packs (such as cafes and bowling) are already part of other DLC. Casinos could be an SP, utilizing existing venues such as bars, nightclubs and lounges (like they did with Bowling Night).
