(i cant remove my last post heres a better one of the same thing) my suggestion is add more star wars stuff and this time make it a expansion pack so there new places to build more species just more and the droids can basically function as pets kinda or sims
@passionfruit I love your ideas for: aviation/airports & international travel. I also want something like this in-game. Especially with all the new world we have. It would be nice to have more gameplay around actually traveling to these locations. It would also be nice for the celebrity sims since they are always traveling the world. The could even add airport careers.
The shopping pack sounds super cool too. I like @Coconut27 's idea about a mall pack. It could be 80s themed since that was it's heyday.
I would really like to see a new world & gameplay for places like the Middle East, Africa, India or Australia. We get a lot of American themed worlds that I feel we could do without (like San Sequoia or Copperdale).

Thank you so much! European worlds would be great too!
I want a pack that gives glamor and rich. Get Famous and Luxury Party are old packs, I would like the devs to attempt another pack for snob sims. Cars and a F1 pack,museum/art expanded game play w/auctions and a sculpting skill,a vacation/casino pack, a romance pack. Get Famous 2.0 with different careers like bands,models, pop groups. So many themes to work in cocktail dresses, gowns, updated heels, more suits and mens upscale fashion,and rich furniture like we got with the Modern Luxe kit. A new world could be based on Paris, South Africa, Seoul, Milan. Having new ways for rich sims to spend money would be nice, with new charity options, rabbit hole phone events like the celebrity vip party, maybe a gossip system.
A camp pack would be interesting to me. 2 sim kayaks, two sim canoe, archery, a new hiking trail like SE, or a river we can watch sims raft down like we do skiing, a new craft(nature resin casts or mosaic art), tug o war, corn hole, air hockey, new pool items(slide,diving boards,race lanes),new ghost stories, new group dance. A mycology skill, new herbal recipes and plants, fish jerky.
A futuristic pack. Smart home options that would also work in realistic sim homes,floating skateboard, new driods, new aliens or a GTW alien upgrade. A world that fits a future theme for full immersion(hovering crafts instead of cars on the road),a VR headset battle game for two sims, bb that curves to fit curved walls, alien plants and foliage, alien pickle ball or something. Maybe an alien pet we can care for like a dog or cat, or a Strangerville type adventure.
I don't know why but I delivery system would be really satisfying to me. The pack would be a SP or part of a bigger pack. I want to send letter and cards with the mail carrier, and packages with a new uniform wearing npc like DHL. I would like a sim to place the cards/letters in a mailbox for the mail carrier to pick up. The packages get picked up in a locker for DHL or the NPC carrier will knock/ring bell for pick up(thinking about apartments dwellers without doorbell or locker space). We need a new order catalog with new gifts(chocolates,new candles,edible arrangements or fancy beautifully presented Asian fruit, sweaters, stuffed animals,new jewelry) because the vanilla gifts on offer need updating. Maybe a new rabbit hole career as a delivery sim(more basic careers please). I'd want to send things to other sims and see the delivery happening, npc delivers to locker or rings bell for hand off, leaves outside like Zoomers delivery. You could send most anything crafts,pie, jam, bio fuel, flowers, produce, the new catalog items, crystal jewelry. Maybe up to 3 items in a package and there is fee for additional items, fee for 1 day delivery instead of 3 sim days. The option to attach sentiments to the packages/cards/ letters "package sent with love, loathing,warmth, no sentiment...", option to send different emotional letters.
--It would be cute for uni sims to get care packages that show up when lockers are on the lot, kid's sending crafts to their grandparents, more pen pal interactions, and an opportunity to send pranks though the mail for evil and goofy shenanigans. Also doorbells or ring cams , and a new stationary craft table where adults and teens can make decor cards(though implementing this into the existing desks would be ideal).
I had another pack idea.
Australian Outback Expansion Pack
Main Features:
1. New lot type: Nature Reserve. Functionals like a park but is home to wildlife that can be befriended like cottage living. New animals: koala, ostrich, kangaroo, and other native species. Befriended kangaroos and be sparring partners for boxing. Befriended ostrich will gift down feathers which can be used as ingredients for a insulate interaction. This interaction will allow you to insulate sleeping bags and mattress with down feathers, making them warmer and more comfortable.
2. New harvestables and outdoor plants such as gum and eucalyptus trees and other native species.
3. New activities and hobbies such as throwing boomerangs, bull riding, rodeo events, and zip line.
4. New careers such as: park ranger career, mainly centered around caring for wildlife and disrupting poaching activities and poacher criminal branch, mainly centered around stealing valuable animal eggs and feathers, setting traps, and vandalism.
5. New aboriginal pre-made sims, CAS items, arts and crafts, and buildbuy items.
6. New fish, cooking recipes, portable camping equipment such as gas stoves and bottle showers, and new radio station.
7. New toys and kids activities such as: rocking horse, ant farm, and rideable ponies.
@Eelinea I like the idea of a pottery hobby, but if it's a game pack, I want it to have other content, not just pottery.
-No, my almost-elderly mother, I don't think it's a good time for you to try for a baby.
-Yes, person I barely know, you have my blessing to hang out with Johnny Zest.
-No person with the mean, hot-headed and self-absorbed traits, I don't think you should get married.
I would like to see something office related. I myself work in a corporate, so it would be relatable :disappointed:
Apart from that, it would be good to have some story telling pack. I know we have something like it already (the scenarios), but something more complex, I don't know, a detective story or something.
So I kind of love the idea of a pack focused on wealthy sims since it can be so easy to earn a lot of money in this game. Someone on Reddit pitched what they called a "Heritage Living" expansion pack, and it sounded perfect.
They posted it as three screenshots, so I'll share them here:
I really like the idea of splitting wealthy sims into new money and old money and even giving special traits for it. Also would love to see tennis, ballet, and golf brought into the game, and they could even build a 9 hole golf course right into the world (with smaller golf holes placeable on lots of course), kind of like the skiing hills in SE.
Right now there's not a lot for our wealthy sims to do with all their money, and I think a pack like this would make it more fun to get rich.
I want a Demon themed Occult Game Pack, Demon Occults can range from:
Cambions/half-humans like Dante and Vergil
Succubus/Incubus
Oni (Red and Blue variants)
Imps,
Gameplay can be a cross between Vampires, Ghosts and Spellcasters with a bit of Genie and Imaginary Friends thrown in.

Recently, I purchased Get Famous for my game and made the members of my favourite band (Queen). But in game, there's no drums (without university or mods), bass guitars, electric guitars or singing (without City Living). And I can't make them all play together. I would love a stuff pack that added these instruments+singing and gave the option to form a band and write+release songs together. It would also have an option where you could assign each member to each instrument. It could also include things like: -Touring -Creating albums -Live shows -Hearing your music on the radio -Naming your band -Different music genres assigned to your bands (Rock, Pop, Alternative, Hip Hop, K-pop e.t.c...) I would also like it to work well with Get Famous (e.g. Earning fame points for your album/single sales and performances) and the members would become famous all together as a band (not just individually). It would be fun to also add things that cause arguments in the band, this would add drama and make it more realistic. Extra: I would also love to see a setting where you could change the decade of your game (e.g. 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, and current day) Because having Freddie Mercury whip out a phone randomly just kinda ruins the story for me.
What do you think of this? Personally I'd be obsessed. :) <3
Airports and International travel would be amazing!! Especially if like you want to take your sims on vacation and want more a realistic gameplay. You could literally just book a flight and choose the place you want to go to (ex. Sulani, Selvadorada, and more). It would also be nice if you there was like a cutscene where you see the plane taking off, flying, and landing.
What I would love to see is a Disability Pack, Create a Sim with a disability, Building mode: wheelchairs, prosthetics legs, arms etc.. Another idea is to bring back Vacation Island from classic The Sims game and Clothing as well as building mode stuff from other cultures like Japan, China, New Zealand, Australia etc both both men, women and children. Just a thought. I've been playing the sims game since the classic The Sims games.
Better sports careers and activities for all ages. smaller things like kite flying and mini golf, to bigger things like dodge ball. Also career path options and venues for bigger sports like soccer, baseball, golf and so on.
I would love a Bhutan World, please. Preferably that's focused on farming and/or ranching expansion of the existing farming and ranching gameplay. You could add Himalayan yaks for milk and wool. You could add lots of food and drinks, such as pickled ginger, pink tea, etc. It could give a Bhutanese radio station.
Also, could you please add Schizophrenia as a personality trait in a kit or bigger pack? And, add us getting a monthly shot from a psychiatric clinic, being able to be on Supplemental Security Income if we never worked, and Social Security Disability income. You could include these in a big disability gamepack, please, that adds onto hospitals, both physical and psychiatric, and that puts in clinics, both physical and psychiatric.
But, even just getting a Schizophrenia Kit would be okay, please. Where it gives a Schizophrenia personality trait, and unlocks SSI and SSDI depending on whether or not you've worked enough if at all. It'd also be nice to include some Schizophrenia special things... A Schizophrenia Awareness Day on the calendar. Interactions where we inform other players of our condition. Maybe a conspiracy theory TV channel, movie, and looking up conspiracy theories on our smartphones, tablets, and computers. I'm Schizophrenic, and I would love some representation in the game, even if it's a little Kit.
I'd also love a Selective Mute Kit. I'm also a Selective Mute, and like to make self-based Sims, but then they talk and talk all the time instead of being mute, and quiet when not mute. If you need help, we get nervous in certain situations, such as around strangers, especially around strangers, and we go mute, or talk quietly when able to speak. Also, our voice might crack, break, or fails if we try to force ourselves to speak when we're too nervous. It can take two or three times to force ourselves to speak. This Kit should also give SSI or SSDI depending on work history.
You could give us a lot of disability Kits, or you could give us three big expansion packs, one physical disability, another invisible/psychiatric disability, and the third could be a mental disability pack.
It would be easiest to give us disability Kits per disability, and release each one around an Awareness Day of RL.
I'm not a loner, I'm a Selective Mute. Shy is much closer to my social personality trait than loner.
You could also give us a CD pack, where are Sims get entire albums per artist instead of only one song on a radio station. We could get discmans, and CD-player radios, boomboxes. We could also save our CDs onto our computers as a new computer interaction. Also, you could add music streaming to our computers, tablets, and smartphones, please. This pack could include vinyl record albums, too, and make thee vinyl table things functional.
I'd also enjoy adding us streaming shows and movies on our computers, tablets, and radios.
Also nice would be to introduce talk radio, and news radio.
You could give us a career for talking on radio with a music radio DJ career path, a talk radio path, a news radio reporter path, and a sports announcer radio career path.
You could add another like/dislike field of whether or not liking or disliking different kinds of news: political, sports, fashion, comics, movies, celebrity gossip, weird news, conspiracy theory news, etc.
There's so much you could put into the game to do with listening besides basic music channels. And, so many more ways to listen than only the radio.
Maybe you could make disabilities go in an alternative thing like likes and dislikes instead of taking up valuable personality traits. Because there's more to us than our disabilities, they aren't really personality traits. I'd hate to be a less interesting person simply because I have two disabilities. I'm a Genius Good person who loves farming and ranching, that's my personality, not my disabilities.
You could also add to the likes and dislikes whether or not we enjoy listening to people, and whether or not we enjoy being listened to. And, you could include it about voices, body language, sign language, and our musical instrument playing. Some people might be shy about their guitar-playing being listened to, but might talk a mile a minute to large groups no problem.
Another good like/dislike would be one for every musical instrument, including singing, and one for talking itself, and sign language, and body language.
You could also make likes and dislikes unlock new personality traits.
And, I know I'm a Selective Mute, but I would love a singing career added to the game with one path as solo artist, and the other path group singers.
I'd also love a dancer career and lots more dance varieties, including belly dance, salsa dance, shuffle dance, K-pop dance (and addition of K-pop music to the game), and ballet dance.
A Korean World expansion pack that adds the singing career, please. It could also add a K-drama TV station.
An anime and manga Japanese World expansion pack, adding a career that gives a path of manga cartoonist, and a path of anime cartoonist.
A Chinese World pack that gives us Shaolin martial arts, and a martial artist career with three tracks: competitor, teacher, and actor. If you have to, you can take the religious part of it out of it, and focus on the martial arts.

Yard Maintenance packs, lawnmowers, leaf blowers,

The shopping pack sounds super cool too. I like @Coconut27 's idea about a mall pack. It could be 80s themed since that was it's heyday.

Maybe it could come with a clay pit and various different types of clay, clay for pottery, for face masks, for drinking, for gardening, etc.

Chat-GPT 3.5 helped me flesh out and phrase my idea for "Age of Wisdom".
Recently, I purchased Get Famous for my game and made the members of my favourite band (Queen). But in game, there's no drums (without university or mods), bass guitars, electric guitars or singing (without City Living). And I can't make them all play together.
I would love a stuff pack that added these instruments+singing and gave the option to form a band and write+release songs together. It would also have an option where you could assign each member to each instrument. It could also include things like:
-Touring
-Creating albums
-Live shows
-Hearing your music on the radio
-Naming your band
-Different music genres assigned to your bands (Rock, Pop, Alternative, Hip Hop, K-pop e.t.c...)
I would also like it to work well with Get Famous (e.g. Earning fame points for your album/single sales and performances) and the members would become famous all together as a band (not just individually). It would be fun to also add things that cause arguments in the band, this would add drama and make it more realistic.
Extra:
I would also love to see a setting where you could change the decade of your game (e.g. 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, and current day) Because having Freddie Mercury whip out a phone randomly just kinda ruins the story for me.
What do you think of this? Personally I'd be obsessed. :) <3
It could give a Bhutanese radio station.
Also, could you please add Schizophrenia as a personality trait in a kit or bigger pack? And, add us getting a monthly shot from a psychiatric clinic, being able to be on Supplemental Security Income if we never worked, and Social Security Disability income. You could include these in a big disability gamepack, please, that adds onto hospitals, both physical and psychiatric, and that puts in clinics, both physical and psychiatric.
But, even just getting a Schizophrenia Kit would be okay, please. Where it gives a Schizophrenia personality trait, and unlocks SSI and SSDI depending on whether or not you've worked enough if at all. It'd also be nice to include some Schizophrenia special things... A Schizophrenia Awareness Day on the calendar. Interactions where we inform other players of our condition. Maybe a conspiracy theory TV channel, movie, and looking up conspiracy theories on our smartphones, tablets, and computers. I'm Schizophrenic, and I would love some representation in the game, even if it's a little Kit.
I'd also love a Selective Mute Kit. I'm also a Selective Mute, and like to make self-based Sims, but then they talk and talk all the time instead of being mute, and quiet when not mute. If you need help, we get nervous in certain situations, such as around strangers, especially around strangers, and we go mute, or talk quietly when able to speak. Also, our voice might crack, break, or fails if we try to force ourselves to speak when we're too nervous. It can take two or three times to force ourselves to speak. This Kit should also give SSI or SSDI depending on work history.
You could give us a lot of disability Kits, or you could give us three big expansion packs, one physical disability, another invisible/psychiatric disability, and the third could be a mental disability pack.
It would be easiest to give us disability Kits per disability, and release each one around an Awareness Day of RL.
I'm not a loner, I'm a Selective Mute. Shy is much closer to my social personality trait than loner.
You could also give us a CD pack, where are Sims get entire albums per artist instead of only one song on a radio station. We could get discmans, and CD-player radios, boomboxes. We could also save our CDs onto our computers as a new computer interaction.
Also, you could add music streaming to our computers, tablets, and smartphones, please.
This pack could include vinyl record albums, too, and make thee vinyl table things functional.
I'd also enjoy adding us streaming shows and movies on our computers, tablets, and radios.
Also nice would be to introduce talk radio, and news radio.
You could give us a career for talking on radio with a music radio DJ career path, a talk radio path, a news radio reporter path, and a sports announcer radio career path.
You could add another like/dislike field of whether or not liking or disliking different kinds of news: political, sports, fashion, comics, movies, celebrity gossip, weird news, conspiracy theory news, etc.
There's so much you could put into the game to do with listening besides basic music channels. And, so many more ways to listen than only the radio.
Maybe you could make disabilities go in an alternative thing like likes and dislikes instead of taking up valuable personality traits. Because there's more to us than our disabilities, they aren't really personality traits. I'd hate to be a less interesting person simply because I have two disabilities. I'm a Genius Good person who loves farming and ranching, that's my personality, not my disabilities.
You could also add to the likes and dislikes whether or not we enjoy listening to people, and whether or not we enjoy being listened to. And, you could include it about voices, body language, sign language, and our musical instrument playing. Some people might be shy about their guitar-playing being listened to, but might talk a mile a minute to large groups no problem.
Another good like/dislike would be one for every musical instrument, including singing, and one for talking itself, and sign language, and body language.
You could also make likes and dislikes unlock new personality traits.
And, I know I'm a Selective Mute, but I would love a singing career added to the game with one path as solo artist, and the other path group singers.
I'd also love a dancer career and lots more dance varieties, including belly dance, salsa dance, shuffle dance, K-pop dance (and addition of K-pop music to the game), and ballet dance.
A Korean World expansion pack that adds the singing career, please. It could also add a K-drama TV station.
An anime and manga Japanese World expansion pack, adding a career that gives a path of manga cartoonist, and a path of anime cartoonist.
A Chinese World pack that gives us Shaolin martial arts, and a martial artist career with three tracks: competitor, teacher, and actor. If you have to, you can take the religious part of it out of it, and focus on the martial arts.
