What if season of love actually means more than romantic love?
What about love of hobbies? Like a FreeTime reboot with new hobbies, or new things for book nerds to do, or reaching a sense of fulfillment while doing a hobby? Or *gasp* musical hobbies with drums?
Growing together was about family love, and Get Together was about friendship and clubs, but what if the new EP covers other forms of love, like better interactions with pets or nature?
What if there is something about loving yourself? Finding yourself, while you hike across Europe type of deal?
Ok ok, it's likely all romance and sensual love. But bands could still be in it. Proposing while a mariachi band or harpist plays? Love in a boat while serene accordian music plays? Finding love at last call at the bar while a band plays?
Please, I'm just searching for more than an EP focused on woohooing.
I wouldn't look for deeper meaning. Season of love is basically an extension of love day. I am looking forward to see what they added and if they add any additional side elements that can be used without romance it would be great. Besides the obvious woohoo and new locations for woohoo, maybe they added things like favorite dish that your sim can cook for their beloved, maybe a new activity they can do together on a date like go on a romantic boat ride on the lake, maybe love letters that don't require a great writing skill. I mean not everyone is a gifted writer but they would still want to express their feelings, right? I would love a mariachi band and even better if my sims could sing in it. Maybe season of love is a play on summer of love social phenomenon from 1967 and it will have free love, arts and music and hippie communes.
I would love a hobby themed pack, more than a romance pack. But I think if this were a hobby pack the road map would have gotten a different look and theme.

From the description it sounds like a romance pack however it could have freebie hobbies couples could enjoy together like a waterpark or a small amusement park with new rides.
I'd also love a new marine aquarium lot and lot type that couples could visit.
While I do think we could use a hobby pack with all of the things you describe, I feel like it should be its own fully dedicated pack. EPs for Sims 4 tend to run a little thin, so to mix themes too much ends up feeling like nothing is done in great detail. I would love, love to have bands with several more instruments (especially drums and percussion, with additional preferences for cellos, saxophone, Mongolian instruments, medieval lute, flute, recorder or ocarina) and I think that just incorporating new instruments would probably be resource heavy, especially if they were to sync up to play songs together, and could/should probably also be a stand-alone pack.
At this point, I just want the things we do get to be done really well, thoroughly, and with depth.
well I guess the sims could paint each other like one of those french girls or work on some pottery together... 😂
I'm just gonna wait and see what its about
I have feeling that its not just romance cause they already separated out weddings n all
but i also don't want to get too hung up on expecting something particular like idk cars or something when no such things were mentioned
overall hoping more so for romance interactions less so woohoo but thats just my false hopes as person who watches tons of romance tv series meanwhile skipping every woohoo scene that takes more than 10 seconds 🤣
I will get kind of disappointed if romance is the only focus, because like others said, we already got that pretty well covered with MWS. It would not work as a selling point simmers that are not that much into romantic games. And we are too many to be ignored, including myself. But - there are obviously many subjects that could be a main focus, still touching romance without being the focus of the pack. But a new way to propose etc would not get me interested this time. A chemistry system might be fun, but I feel it would be a double of the system we already got with GrT. I'd prefer a few extra alternatives added to that system, rather than getting a new. Recalling TS2 where I felt the UI with all it's simology systems killed my game. With TS4 it is a tad better (this far), although Milestones is a negative because I don't find it useful at all, and it takes up 50% of my simlogy panel. It's a turn-off, to use the love pack terms
Just adding that I see that Dating can be a different focus than Weddings, so if they just stay out of the wedding aspects it won't need to overlap with MWS at all.
Packs tend to have a main feature with some additional features and things added. So it's the additional things that could have what you are hoping for. But I wouldn't count on it as several expansion packs we have gotten now have mostly focused on the main feature and the additional things have been rabbit holes or features that might not have worked that great.
If this pack is going to be about romance then I think we can count on the marketing team focusing on that because they know that is a popular theme and that it sells.

Maybe pet birds will be in this EP, I have the feeling they might be included given all the previous hints…
I saw that EA used the word "drama" in one of the descriptions, so I'm thinking/hoping there will be more options for romantic drama, like unrequited love, vengeance, love triangles and/or jealousy, as well as new dating and romantic/steamy options and honeymoons. I think there's actually a lot they could do with this kind of theme, so I hope we get some news soon.
Im wondering since we are getting a bistro kit and and a pool kit if we will have a lot of romance interactions that can be done at a table and in a pool. I also hope to see a romantic bear hug, and spooning and such in bed. I would much prefer a lot of romance interactions than just new woo hoo spots. I too would also like to see hotels and casino stuff, and cars.
for an expansion pack dating app is not enough and changing the games setting to allow multiple messages is not either nor are turn off and turn ons which are basically likes and dislikes and a couple new animations won't do it either. this pack must have more than just those 4 stuff and those 4 stuff are all UI gameplay or just UI changes .

Love birds!
There is a bird that flies across the roadmap so I’m hoping for pet birds. If there aren’t any, why show one in the roadmap?
