I want to know if people are ready to see the Sims with a new twist, or if they are content with the modern theme.
If/when they do get around to creating a Sims 5, which of the following themes would get you most excited?

A turn back time, EP, that allows you to travel to different stages of the past in all the worlds?
A mission to mars EP that gives you a whole new world to explore, but to return to the base game world takes months of travel.
The base game needs to be universal, for all players, not just the ones who have specific interests. If the base game was fantasy, or space, or history, it would turn a lot of people off the game, but the people who want those other things would still play a base game with a modern setting.
I'd love to have the other themes as expansions or spinoffs. I was thinking we could also have an Atlantis-themed underwater world, but this would need its own rules since everyone is underwater, for example. Then again, the other themes have complex rules too (no cellphones and vehicles in medieval, different gravity per planet in space, etc.)

I would chose modern day but now and then I might like to play in ancient Egypt or perhaps maybe go back to the age of discovery and send Sims to colonise an undiscovered continent and then marry some of the locals.
Those would be cool ideas for an expansion pack though.
A 19th century themed EP would be awesome as well. Send your Sims to work in the mines and if there is not enough money in the family send your kids up the chimneys as a chimney sweep. If it gets cold you mine coal which then gets transported by a coal powered train to a coal yard where one of your Sims delivers it by horse to every house.

The sims could make a time travelling device a travel back in time or further into the future to collect things and have adventures or solve puzzles.
The sims could go back or forward in time to save the sims world from enviromental and other types of things that will happen and get rewards for their successes.
They could even travel to different parts of the world to help save them therefore introducing snow type worlds, Egyptian, Oriental, European and Australian worlds into the sims game.
It would also bring in a lot of money for the good people who bring us our favourite game.
It does seems a good amount of people would like to see these things in the game in one way or another.
Maybe Sims 5: Time Travel?
Ha! Anyways, thank you everyone for sharing your thoughts, it was fun to read them.
Why be stuck in just one type of setting or world when you could be on a technologically subpar alien planet? Or live under the sea in a medieval type society? Or a space colony hovering above some random planet? I'd be more excited for the possibility of being able to have sims living in almost any type of setting whether it's created by the devs or by other players, not just modern day settings for everything.
Another really cool theme would be a retro-futuristic design. A bit like the universe in the Netflix show Maniac. Super advanced technology but with 80s and 90s aesthetics.
All my creations are CC free.
Yes. Provide the basics and, as the consumers, provide us the tools to do the rest.

but realistically tho they should probably stick to modern day/normal sims. i think the reason most people like the sims is because of the everyday realism, that's kinda what the sims is about. the wilder stuff is good for expansion packs but i think the main game should remain as it is, just with improvements
I found both poor.
I would love a remake of the sims 2 ps2 castaways more, or somethings new.
