The last sims sparkd gallery competition was destination weddings. This patch we can now get married on vacation lots. The current competition is about seniors and their hobbies. I think it's a hint at what is to come.
I wouldn’t mind an entire EP just with plants and a new career ‘florist’ so you can make bouquets for weddings and flower arrangements for Grim when he stops by and an entire EMPTY world, no shell houses, no roads just plain nature, and not like granite falls it’s too woody and mountany.
That survey was in January though. For them to create the survey in the first place they would have had to have already decided the theme and had some first-examination meetings where they discussed different possibilities and gameplay and aggregated their discussion into lists and put together concepts - especially in a corporate setting, that takes time. For the survey to be ready in January, they would have to have been working on it sooner than that. Which would mean they started work on the EP last year.
This EA account is shared between two longtime roommates. The one most likely to be writing here is me, the taller of the roommates, whose opinions do not always represent the opinions of the shorter roommate.
It's certainly not farming because they said it isn't, and also not generations, because they said it doesn't include babies. I also don't think it will be winter vacation/mountains, shoppings or high school, because the survey for those was taken this year, and they've been working on it since last year. I don't think it's anything supernatural, because those would probably come in a GP, and also Star Wars is kinda supernatural, so I think something more "mundaine" is coming in the next pack.
If it's a Music Pack, There will be the following:
- Casino
- Nightclub
- Form a Band (Either Rock or Pop)
- New York Type World.
- Sims Can Own Nightclubs and Casinos (Similar to Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony)
I expect the winter vacation concept to be a game pack for next year, based on the timing of when the survey that talked about it came out.
My best guess for this one is either something else we've never seen before, or a grouping of some of the missing occults (werewolves, fairies, zombies, etc).
What I would like for an Expansion (because I'd prefer werewolves in a game pack with the detail of vampires) would be a sequel to GTW that lets me own bars/nightclubs and hair salons and maybe has some more active careers like a factory or construction job.
neither of your pack ideas are requests ive seen much of , in fact ive probably seen simmers requests bands/and stuff only a couple times and casinos? Not at all. Those aren't it.
That would be a dream come true, but if you've played any of the Sims 4 packs, you know it won't happen. Your hopes are too high, unfortunately. They only scratch the surface of themes in Sims 4 packs.
Uhm, did anyone request Eco Lifestyle or Star Wars? What makes you think the next pack is highly requested?
Also, the only highly requested packs at this point are farming, generations and winter vacation, and as I said, those are not coming in this next EP.

And, I think with Eco Lifestyle, people were expecting it to be more like "living off the land", as in raising animals for food and wool, getting back to basics and not technology driven world, I don't really know that they were thinking so much about picking up trash and hugging grub worms or some fake meat wall type thing.
I know I never voted for EL or NK, I know too well how EA does things now and I knew it wouldn't be some fully fleshed out all encompassing "hobbies" pack but it would be narrowed down to just one hobby.
But for those that wanted that, I'm glad they did it for you.
But now seriously speaking, anything can happen after Ecolifestyle. At least we can rule out topics like farming. So it will be a complete surprise!
It's time to be selfish.
I really want EP10 to be about music and singers, bands, recording studios, live shows and music videos.... but I don't think it will happen this time. Maybe they will keep it for EP13 or 14!! But they should definitely bring our musicians sims back to life in TS4!!
Also hoping for: Romance and zodiac signs, Family gameplay and better babies! Another vacation world! Sims with PERSONALITIES!! Cars! Plain! Train! Hobbies! Farming! Circus! Teens and high schools! Models! More supernatural! Weddings! Zoo! Shopping malls! Classic items and worlds from past sims game! Time machine! survival! Funerals! Another creepy world! SOME gameplay for elders! Burglars, Bonehilda, and all the classic NPC's! Work places and cool careers! Haven and ❤️❤️❤️❤️! Angels! Amusement park! CAW tool! Color wheel! Spiral staircase! And so much more! 😁
A Romance Pack
A Mountain Snow Vacation
A Romance/Snow Vacation
Theme Parks
Either one of these would thrill me. If we get a Romance Pack Booking Honeymoons in a Vacation World and Resorts is a must. Also I want Theme Parks really bad. I want to take my sims to Sim Disney World.
