This set would be awesome indeed

I wish we could get cuddling back because there really aren’t that many interactions for couples in sims. I also wish we could walk around the towns more instead of switching from place to place.

There are so many missed great opportunities in some of these packs when you really think about it. It's hard to pick just one for some of them, but I'll give it a go...

City Living: Singer career
Cats & Dogs: Dog shows/competitions

Get Famous: Film director career
Island Living: Underwater gameplay (I want hotels/holiday homes too - hopefully they will still come in another pack)

GP

Outdoor Retreat: Option for sims to walk/hike together as a couple/group (I want werewolves so much, but in a new pack)
Spa Day: Option to own/work at spa
Dine Out: Option to propose at table
Vampires: Vampire hunters
Parenthood: Caregivers can sing lullabies to toddlers/child sims to help them sleep (or some other cute interaction like child/toddler sims cuddling their parents in bed after a nightmare, or learning to cook/bake together...)

SP

Luxury Party Stuff: Painted nails
Perfect Patio Stuff: More grill recipes
Cool Kitchen Stuff: Toasters

Kids Room Stuff: Bunk beds
Backyard Stuff: Pool games
Vintage Glamour Stuff: Retro dial phones
Bowling Night Stuff: New arcade machine
Fitness Stuff: Dumbbells and exercise bikes (Okay, that's two, but I want them both so much and was so disappointed they weren't included)

Yeah I mean there is so many things that could be added even for me its hard with some
but I wanted to challenge people on prioritizing just one out of their large lists and see what they come up with

also fitness stuff tho I totally agree its odd how basic exercises are missing in this game

FanPhoria

Get to Work: shop-owning aspiration
Get Together: dancer/dj career
City Living: singer career and/or aspiration
Cats & Dogs: pet training career and/or aspiration (and/or also a veterinary based aspiration)
Seasons: more toddler clothing (specifically spooky day costumes)
Get Famous: actual new and different dance animations for the musical scenes, and also just more of them so it's not just the same dance moves for every 🐸🐸🐸🐸 thing
Island Living: don't have it, so can't say

Outdoor Retreat: a specifically herbalism focused aspiration and/or career option
Spa Day: wellness aspiration and/or career
Dine Out: aspiration based around running a restaurant
Vampires: vampire hunting aspiration
Parenthood: playable nanny career, that was based in the parenting skill
Jungle Adventure: an aspiration based specifically around exploring selvadoradan culture (like, learning dances and such). Also, an actual archaeologist career (either work form home or freelance)
StrangerVille: I haven't really explored much of Strangerville yet, but so far, I mostly just wish the things in it already worked more consistently lol

Stuff Packs

Luxury Party Stuff: formal dinner party event
Perfect Patio Stuff: pool party event
Cool Kitchen Stuff: ice cream social party event
Spooky Stuff: more costumes for kids and toddlers
Movie Hangout Stuff: movie critic career, or a movie watching party
Romantic Garden Stuff: formal date event option
Kids Room Stuff: slumber parties
Backyard Stuff: some kind of "summer strut" backyard party, where you drink lemonade and use the water slides.
Vintage Glamour Stuff: cocktail party event
Bowling Night Stuff: don't have it so can't say
Fitness Stuff: just got, haven't explored it much yet
Toddler Stuff: more toddler costumes, for parties and spooky day
Laundry Day Stuff: don't have so can't say
My First Pet Stuff: just got, haven't explored it much yet

Basically: I always want new aspirations, careers, and events. If you ask me, every time they introduce a new skill, there should be AT LEAST a couple aspirations or careers to go with it, and every stuff pack if AT ALL possible should come with a new social event.

EnderGamer87

the thing I want is for them to fix all or most of the bugs with the packs. The amount of content that is broken/unplayable is crazy.

I had a lot of fun thinking of some of those possibilities. It has also made me realise how Fitness Stuff was probably one of my biggest disappointments even if it isn't the 'worst' SP.

Yes please to all of this! I would love to have more social events and business/skill based careers and aspirations, particularly for dancing, singing, wellness, dog training, archaeology, and retail/restaurants. I really wish we had vampire hunters and careers for handy sims too. An option to specify a dress code for events would also be useful to allow us to arrange formal dinner parties and such.

filipomel

Game Packs

Base Game
Freelance career to be updated to work with most skills, there's a lot of good opportunities here.

Yeah I personally feel like there is loads of missed opportunity with Get To Work and Get Together
like meanwhile GT has clubs and GTW has active careers which I both very much adore
I somewhat feel they didn't do enough with those

for Get Together

I feel the lack of couple dancing with the dancing skill (even though id want couple dancing to be base game)
and then I feel the lack of hobbies and games with the clubs too
because I mean there could always be more group activities for such pack

for Get To Work

I feel lack in amount of careers/skills it added
and I feel there should be creative active career in it too
or something bit less fancy like npc jobs as active careers would already make it feel more full

Also for some stuff packs I hardly get they exist

(could just have been part of some of the eps (first pet stuff, spooky day))

or then the theme is just odd and does not respond to the title of pack

(kitchen stuff? with just one kitchen? go figure)

I think I feel least disappointed over the game packs as a whole
but there is still few things they could have sneaked in because themes are suitable to make them even better

Yubell

More relationship options. Step dad, Adopted Sibling/child, Second Cousins, Step siblings etc.

JosieAnglin

Parenthood - more baby and teen things!

Karababy52

One thing? Okay, here goes...

Expansion Packs

Get to Work: Ticket machine
Get Together: Dance Hall/Studio venue with multiple style dance competitions/classes
City Living: Build our own apartment complex with an open common area (also buildable) for all residents
Cats & Dogs: Pet Grooming career/business
Seasons: Snow sledding
Get Famous: Musician career with more band instruments
Island Living: More boat types that allow more than one Sim to board. Ex: Pontoon

Game Packs

Outdoor Retreat: Canvas Outfitter tents or Tipis in different sizes with the ability to add objects and see/live inside
Spa Day: Nail Technician/Manicurist
Dine Out: More restaurant styles including fast food, buffet/smorgasbord, food truck that don't require a host/hostess or waiters/waitresses
Vampires: Limited Vampire abilities taught by Vampire parents starting with children instead of full abilities automatically starting with teens
Parenthood: Carryable, interactive stuffed animals/dolls for toddlers/children

Strangerville: the possibility to play in a apocalyptic but uninfected world (toggle options)

AlbaWaterhouse

Oh, FUN! (and difficult)

Expansion Packs

Get to Work: I would change a lot here but being realistic: the ability to hire whoever you want for your store and have them work there when playing a different household, same goes for the active careers, have your active sim see colleagues that are supposed to work there
- rotational play would be more realistic and immersive -

Get Together: a more efficient way to manage clubs and the ability to delete clubs when you are not playing with the leader

City Living: the ability to build our own appartments

Cats & Dogs: I would change a lot here but being realistic: the ability to not control per se but see your pet's needs, family tree, skills learned, etc

Seasons: I would change a lot here but being realistic: I wish they would have focus a bit more on NEW activities, specially for summer (pools were completely ignored)

Get Famous: I would change a lot here but being realistic: the ability to choose if a sim would care about seeing famous sims or not. I really dislike seeing sims I created that should'n give a plum about famous sims freaking out when they see one

Island Living: what I would change here is the category/label, this is a Game Pack. Otherwise, a lot would need to be added, not just one thing/tweak

Game Packs

Spa Day: wellness aspiration

Dine Out: ability to work AT LEAST as the host of your own restaurant

Vampires: vampire hunting job/aspiration
