What’s your hopes & predictions on the new Expansion / Game packs? Here’s mine....
With the new game pack being a ‘major first’ for the Sims franchise, the only themes which seem possible to me are: Space Exploration, Farming or some kind of old-fashioned, time period pack?
The new expansion pack will be a ‘surprise’ to us but not necessarily something that’s new to the franchise. I’d hope for Generations but I’m thinking it will probably be: More supernaturals, a Resort/ Hotel pack with snow activities focus or a Nightlife pack with cars included. I’m less convinced of the nightlife idea cause we have Get Together & City Living but I still don’t feel as though the nightlife element is fully covered?

I can see more supernaturals, namely fairies and werewolves.
In regards to old-fashioned/time period packs, I would like Ancient Egypt and Rome/Greece.
A Ski Resort would be cool, so we could build a replica of the hotel in The Shining.
They did farming before, and we already have some sort of space exploration built into the game.
I think you can build the hotel from The Shining in Outdoor Retreat, where the hermit lives.
And everyone keeps saying farming but I feel like they sort of had it in sims 3
Some people here was saying it could be a zoo or safari pack and that's never been done before so that's a possibility.
I hope it's not any sort of entertainment pack like reality tv. Just not my playstyle.
Other than that I can't imagine. They surprised me with tiny living, realm of magic and strangerville. I never saw it coming.
All I really WANT more than anything is zombie/apocalypse world/ wearwolves/ generations for tons of kid games and interactions.
I also really want an exotic fantasy world we can actually LIVE in. I've had enough suburbs 😭😭😭
I would even be satisfied if they allow us to live in the hidden worlds and destination worlds. I don't see the point of my aliens visiting sixam only to go live in the suburb or desert 😆😆
Oh and I would totally love a sports pack as stated above me!! 😁
Hopeful that Farming gets the green light as the next expansion pack. 2020 is going to see the rise in home isolation and new gaming trends like Animal Crossing so it would be a perfect timing for EA to put The Sims 4 on the map with this EP. New neighborhood would have remote living with reintroduction of groceries. Raising livestock like cows, sheep, chicken and the return of Horses from Pets 3.

I am also really keen on bringing the Sims 3 Generations to the Sims 4 (I created my own thread about it, https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/974204/we-should-bring-the-sims-3-generations-to-the-sims-4#latest)

For the GP, I'm not sure but maybe farming pack since so many asked for it.
The June/summer EP will definitely NOT be the winter themed resort. They only had questions about it on the survey at the beginning of the year. There's no way they'd have enough time to create it. It might come in the 2nd EP for the year if there is one, usually around November, or possibly early 2021 if their release schedule plans had to be adjusted.
My hopes are...
1. Steampunk theme pack which focus on mechanical & time travel
2. Far East vacation pack
3. Happy Haunts!
4. Amusement park
While my predictions are...
1. Farming/Harvest pack
2. Alps/Andes vacation pack
3. School related pack
They talked about a winter themed pack back in 2019 so it’s very possible it could be one of the packs coming up....
I agree!
That was only in... mid-November, I think. While March and April have *felt* like they were years long (and May looks to follow suit for at least some places) it wasn't that long ago. Barely six months. Though I suppose it does depend on how far into production they were when the Survey went out and the size of the pack. A game pack about half way through production could be the Game Pack this fall, but I don't think a Wnter Retreat counts as something never done before. I highly doubt it's the expansion pack, though.
