    University/School EP 🎓
    I am not fussed over university, but I do want a school pack. I want to explore the childhood/teen school years as this has never been done. I'm a teacher who isn't currently teaching as I'm taking a few years out to raise my own kids while they're tiny, so perhaps I'm just missing my job! I would love a school expansion pack with an active career as a teacher and an active schooling experience for the kids - other smaller active careers could be school councillor, janitor, sports coach etc. or these could easily be non-active. Seasons could work so well with it with terms/semesters and school breaks - as well as seasonal school events i.e. exams, celebrations depending on holidays (you could set it all up and customise when they all happen). You could have school trips (both day trips and residential trips - how cool would a school trip camping at Granite Falls be?) and school performances (both music and plays). You could have extra-curricular activities that work like jobs for the kids - school council, sports clubs, music clubs, art clubs, writing clubs etc. which could then feed into perks/advantages when they grow up and get jobs. The club system from Get Together could work so well with a school expansion.

    I feel the childhood and teen age ranges in Sims 4 are so boring to play. There's not that much going on and a school pack could add so, so much to flesh out these stages.

    I do want romance, but also Mythology, Werebeasts, Superheroes, Robots, Space Travel, Danger and Adventure, Apocalypse and Medieval. I want flavor and engaging themes. Oh, and Funerals/functioning graveyards.

    Farming EP 🌻
    I would love a farming pack especially because the Sims hasn't seen anything like that before. I also want University, but I assume that's on the way because we've had it before

    One or more 👍
    1. Farming
    2. Infants toddlers
    3. Wedding planner ECT
    4. Cars
    5. Vacation- skiing. Sasquatch :p
    6. Ocean. Simlantis
    7. Amusement parks
    8. University

    Probably shouldn't put more than one as it throws the true count for the others. My guess is that many who voted for one really wanted more than one, but didn't want their pick to lose or make it look as if simmers wanted something else more. Out of the above, nearly all would be welcome content.

    The romance system is in serious need of an overhaul after almost five years. I'd really like to see some slow dancing in my game, and some special interactions between Sims in love. Perhaps a pack with an ocean theme could add to what some of us feel is missing in Island Living. Such as a special underwater lot for the memaids. Or one for deep sea diving. A farming pack....hmmm....farming has not been done in Sims4 and I would like to see what could be done with that idea. I rather enjoyed making preserves with the canning station. But if sheep or alpacas were to be introduced there would be the option perhaps to knit sweaters and hats? And the chicken coop from Sims3 was a lot of fun. The chicks were cute as heck. I remember my Sims eating a lot of eggs in my game. I even bought the tractor so my Sims3 kids could go for a hayride in the fall. There is just too much to add to decide which idea would be the best one.

    I would really love to see a farming pack. It would really fit more with my play style. Living a Rustic life, off the grid and living off the land. Though, Schools/University being a close second. Just because my sims are technologically impaired, doesn't mean they don't know what they're doing. :p
    With every deed, you are sowing a seed... though, the harvest you may not see

    Romance/Wedding SP 🌺
    I want University but most of all I prefer Romance pack with chemistry system. We got one in TS2, we got something like that in TS3 but in 4 - nothing.
    Imagine how this game will be more interesting with chemistry - you could make complicated stories where your Sims will fall in love not because you made them (two minutes and they are engaged), but because they want this (or you set their preferences properly and only watch - like in TS2).
    University is for a moment - chemistry the system applies to the whole game, all Sims in your presence!

    I would like to see the Vacation/Resort pack with diverse vacation options, like the ski lodge you mentioned and maybe a tourist-friendly city with unique lot types. With this, I would also like to see hotel functionality be available in any world, since I like building them.

    I would also like an education pack. I never had university for the earlier iteration of the Sims, so it would be, for me, gameplay I've never experienced before. Also, if it goes beyond university, it would help with building different stories, like single parent getting a degree online or rich kids at boarding school, and could also bring in more afterschool activities that could help with building skills.

    Farming, truly off-the-grid, futuristic living, several past eras, eg., medieval, Regency, Georgian, Edwardian - give me more build/buy options please. :smile:

    All of the above! All of these sound like good ideas for the game. Just the other day on YouTube I was watching a simmer complain that he couldn’t imagine there would be enough content left to support the franchise for another 3 years. He should just come here. Off the top of my head even I can think of a number of possibilities not in the poll.

    It would be nice to have an active education system for university, but also for kids and teens in school. It would be nice if it were playable for students and teachers too. I would really love a farming pack with more produce (wine, jams) as well as livestock like interactable chickens, pigs, cows, sheep/ llamas and horses which you could tend, play with (and in the case of horses) ride, and whose products you could grow, improve, use or sell.

    It would also be good if we could have musical bands and live gigs again. Perhaps this time Maxis could introduce more instruments, types of gigs, and genres of music. A string quartet or classical piano trio would be nice, for example, or a jazz group with a saxophone or trumpet. These groups could have a maximum of four players and play different kinds of venues or gigs (an afternoon classical concert in a park, a rock band in a large venue, a jazz band in a small nightclub, or a singer with a piano or guitar accompaniment in a lounge) There could also be Singers fronting a three piece pop or rock band or just accompanied by piano with their own gigs; these would be a welcome addition (instead of just singing on their own like in Showtime). Let’s have drums, electric guitars, bass and cello, saxophone, trumpet and or even flute.

    A dance pack with new social dances between sims (like slow dance, waltz and tango) plus classical dance like ballet would be good to have, with kid options and watchable recitals.

    More careers (active) would be beneficial, especially models, firefighters, ghost hunters, interior designers and burglars. Let’s finally have real archeologists too. Even more Freelancers would be welcome — sculptors, winemakers, pottery makers, carpenters, inventors. More businesses to run (like resorts or crafting studios of various kinds)!would be worthwhile too.

    Let’s have more dangerous stuff too (a possible pack from around Laundry Day’s inception). Let’s have detonation back, as well as the ability for a mad scientist to make evil robots (or good ones). For certain sims I have wanted the ability to start fires, ruin or vandalize things (beyond just breaking electronics). It would equally be neat to have martial arts skilling and duelling back, and truly dangerous NPCs (like the powerful mummies with their curses from TS3 World Adventures or better zombies and ghosts).

    More leisure or vacation packs would be useful, with related activities and locales: a boating/ sailing pack (maybe with surfing and waterskiing too), a winter holiday pack with skiing, snowboarding, ice fishing and snowshoeing, a pool pack with water slides (for all ages), real diving boards, a proper diving skill, pool volleyball, or other water sports. How about a picnic pack for family play and reunions, with picnic baskets and foods, as well as picnic activities (board games, tag, hide and seek, etc)? A honeymoon pack with an exotic locale or resort and with couple-based romantic activities would be fun as well, on its own or as part of a wedding pack. A child-oriented pack with some new skills, activities and social events (along with unique objects like the treehouse, jump ropes, hopscotch, marbles etc) for them is also needed so they can have sleepovers and camp outs with friends and cousins too. Teen and elder packs would be good too, to give these underserved age groups some love.

    I like the previously mentioned idea of carnivals with new activities, games, foods and rides etc too. A hobbies pack like Freetime would be excellent too, particularly if it came with interests or enthusiasms in a system for all sims. Or add a sports pack with some new sports playable by groups: softball, touch football, capture the flag, paintball, golf, soccer, croquet — these could even be mini games for more fun. I want the pool table and ping pong back too, perhaps in a group activity pack. Bring back some of the store packs too, especially the Lucky Casino (slot machines, wheels of fortune, blackjack, etc) and the alien world. (Who wouldn’t want a livable alien or futuristic world? I certainly do). Given the number of historical-playing simmers there are, some historically themed packs or even neighbourhoods/ worlds would be greeted with excitement I am sure.

    These are just a few ideas based on past or expanded elements from previous sims games. I bet there could be plenty of new ideas and activities that no one has even thought of yet added as well. I expect we will get at least some old and new experiences in the next few years or as long as the franchise lasts. I doubt they will run out of ideas even if some are unwelcome to some players.

    I can't even consider the others until I get a university expansion pack. It's the only one that matters to me right now.

    I'd love a Winter GP or even EP, with a large, beautiful winter world where sims can live all year round, but that also has things like skiing, drinking glühwein, ice skating on frozen lakes. Can look like the Alpes, with beautiful deep snow. 🥰

    I'd also love to have a University EP, or an entire school pack - with fun new things for kids and toddlers too (day-care?), and a campus of course!

    And a Farming GP/EP I think what I'm still missing to really live off the grid could be included there: like the ability to raise animals, produce milk and honey, but also to use modern, alternative energy sources for example.

    University, farming, vacation/resorts (especially ski resort).
    I'm basically okay with any of the choices, except I don't care about cars or ocean life packs.

    I loved playing the university pack on the Sims 3. Think it would be really interesting to see what it would be like on the Sims 4.
