With the two kits being based off France, could it be that the riviera is the inspiration for the expansion pack too? Thinking Marseille, Cannes, Nice? Lots of colorful houses, and it would fit with the idea that the kits were the leftovers that couldn't be roomed in the pack for whatever reason (hopefully because gameplay and great hotel features took too much space).
Moreover, I advise that the cart button must be destroyed!

Yes the Next World could be based off France or the Netherlands.

France or the Netherlands, then I hope they don't forget about the little country in between those two countries, own country Belgium. Just feels weird to have two neighbouring countries north and south of us named. I am getting curious about the world in the new EP
I don't think that the new world will be in the French kit style, because that would provoke an endless outcry (Why wasn't that included? Why do we have to pay extra for every pool ladder?)
Tbh it would perhaps be better if the romance pack focused completely on rich gameplay and came without a world, like the Seasons EP.

Well, you already have Hercule Poirot, that must count for something, even if he is not a sim in the romance EP, he can easily be created

This continues to be my theory as well. But none of us know at this point.

Gurus hinting about new features added to game not apart of ep. Hints lean to multifunctional lots- that is a feature Hotels would have a restaurant, bar, cafe, shop, living areas, gym, and more all on one lot. Hopefully a base game update and then more features in EP specifically run your own hotel🤞🏼
I already speculated that multifunctional lots would have been this "free stuff" announcement but I just find out, it isn't. So I am not too excited about any new speculations. Sure it would make sense to give us hotels and for that we definitely need lots, that can have more than one assignment. But the roadmap did not give me a feeling that hotels might be coming, unfortunately.
(I want Bands so desperately! The second thing after Bands I need are hotels and multifunctional lots!)
I find it unlikely that for rent with rentable units would be followed by hotels or multifunctional lots. Too much focus on lots for simmers not really into that. I don't think the new world will be France or bistro related either, because I assume most of us want a variety of content, not a bulk of related stuff that could be in the same EP all together. So, because the bistro design is spent, I don't expect the world to be 100% matching. So, I'm sill guessing Amsterdam, although I'd rather have another sub-arid to tropical destination.
@Simmerville I really hope you're wrong, mostly because I really want multipurpose lots and hotels. I also think the mechanics of making rental units would be similar to the multipurpose lots, so that makes sense, as well as the idea of a bistro underneath apartments. Besides, even if you're not a builder, the venue type would be something anyone could use and just download off the gallery. Also, with how smallish worlds we've gotten lately, multipurpose lots is a way to get plenty of entertainment on a small surface. In one lot you can have people living, dining, drinking and shopping...
What I fear is that you're right and we're getting a romance pack that is entirely centered on dating (since dining out is in DO, marriage in MWS and family life in GrT). An entire expansion pack for a dating app and new romantic interactions sounds thin (to put i mildly) so I really, really, hope there is more than that.

I can second your entire wish list, multi purpose lots is probably the one new feature that I would have the most fun from, more than romantic stuff. Just think they might squeeze in a different theme, like romance, and maybe serve us those multi lots after that. But thinking of it, what might normally make sense, could be less relevant now that the series is having so much dlc and probably only have a few bigger packs left. Let's hope they decide to toss just everything at us

And with hotels, we need casino’s! I also think cars will be coming at some point!

Pool slides and curved pools would be awesome.
More lots than the last EP- Thank Goodness!
I hope there are atleast 4 or 5 empty lots. I want to put down a waterpark,amusement park,restaurant and wedding venue.
There is one vacation rental confirmed.
I prefer hotels
So do I but their doing those on another pack.
Hopefully I miss hotels and resorts.
