I like the idea of a museums update. I've always thought that museums are a wasted opportunity in game. As they are, they mostly just take up space, but correctly used they could be awesome: An active or semi-active career as museum curator Art and other object only available for museum venues (at least without cheating or stealing them) Museum gift shop items, among other things posters with pictures of the art not available for normal homes Activities such as guided tours, art classes, archaeology classes where you are mentored in your skill by someone (like you are in a gym) - your skill would increase faster in class than out of it. Homework activities for Discover University for art students (to go to museums and analyse art) School trips for high school students (HSY)

I think all of these ideas are really cool, although the spirituality update could be tricky because there are so many practices and the sims team seems to mostly keep religion out of the game. I'd love to see a pool update:-new water slide object, maybe a few different types if we are lucky-base game version of the diving board-new pool interactions like play marco polo or dive to the bottom-new swimsuits for all ages-pools added to base game houses in willow creek and oasis springs when appropriate

I would love to be able to work in the restaurants. I have always wanted to be the chef in my own restaurant. Also, sometimes all of the staff does not show up, if it is the host the only options you have are to close the restaurant or fire the hot during the service and hire a new one. Running a successful restaurant in the Sims 4 is while challenging. It would be a lot more enjoyable if we could take on those roles. I would also like the sims to be able to go to the hospital when sick and for the hospital to be an actual venue. I would also like concert to be a type of event that you can arrange. -cupcake, cookie and lemonade stands for the kids-dress fitting would be nice-bachelorette and bachelor party or some made up non-gender conforming term

Is it possible to create a Sims 4 baby shower packet , where we can have the option to have an event ? This would be so much fun. Especially if my sims can ask other sims for money for the baby. Also could the cake tasting stand be more useful, like maybe we can buy a cake there or gain a happy or romantic moodlet?

I would like more clothes/ hairstyle and beard options for everyone. And be able to adjust the height of the sims. In the spa pack, there are no spas that appear in the world for you to go to, to enjoy the spa run by npc without making one myself. Also be able to run your own business that isnt retail/ restaurant. I want to be able to run a cafe or coffee shop. The food stalls can’t be run by my sims either and I have to hire someone to run it. For the nanny, I feel like having the option to pay for x amount of hours for services before hand might be nice. Sometimes they leave when I come back other times they are there really late. If anything, maybe a daycare center be a thing where you can drop baby- toddler off so you can go to work or do other things while your child is taken care of in the mean time. It would also be really cool if that was a thing, and you could become friends with other sim moms and have play dates and know which sims have children similar age to your own. Strollers would be cool! I once built and ran a restaurant but I had to constantly be there or else I would lose money and it just wouldn’t run. There’s got to be other ways to earn better money running the restaurant cause no matter what I do, I’m never really making profit that would realistically be worthwhile. Maybe like cater events at the restaurant or parties in general? I would love more interactions and stuff to do with the farm animals, or have more farm animals in general with a functional barn that houses the animals that you could see into like you would your house. I also think more sub career options would be nice. Also! I wanna be able to hire someone to help with farm animals or gardening/farming. Or like an assistant?? Idk. There should also be more single and random npc sims. I always make a new character/ world and am left with same old options unless I make them. But although playing multiple sims can be fun it also hard and stressful trying to play them all in my household. I wanna be able to only play my character and interact with the other household members without having to constantly switch between them all. Just like how there is the option to influence the children into doing homework there should be options to talk and influence/suggest to the household members to take care of themselves? Or just have them take care of themselves better and communicate more on feels and wants to each other without having to switch between sims constantly. Not that I want my sims to get hurt, but if they did, like sprained ankle, broken bone, accident etc, going to see the doctor for sickness and wheelchairs and crutches or casts would be an interesting option for the game. I also like the compatibility between sims that’s available for good great and bad compatibility between sims, maybe fated could be an option? Or love at first sight? I also love the milestone moments and think there should be more added. There should be more stuff for pets like wall shelves for cats climbing, more toys etc. it would be pretty cool to have a hiking option with a trail up a mountain where you can forage, find lakes to fish on and live in a cabin jn the woods. Like the ski mountain world but it’s woods for hiking and outdoor living, really rustic. Speaking of rustic, I would love rustic options for decoration and house building. I feel like I was rambling but there is just so much potential and ideas

@nattygirl13 there is mod that does that by IlexSims. the has a lot of decor with purpose. while I would have liked that officially in game, I downloaded it and I took it out because you can just click on your sims for that way lost in my catalog but cute idea. He has a lot of decor with purpose like body wash, perfume, while cute to play with something new, I simply can't find in my game catalog. The team should have made that gameplay but clicking on the sim anywhere in the case of the coat rack makes it a gameplay a little harder.

better autonomy on going to the bathroom. the if you play without ui cheats with a family of 5 or more, all your trying to do it get them all to a bathroom the entire time- not fun. Why do they have to wait until they almost pee themselves before the do the dance to the bathroom?

Just hire Little Ms Sam, and all these other mod creators for ideas.

Maybe you don't have enough bathrooms in your lots or the pathing to the bathrooms is bad. I play with full autonomy and never have to worry about sims not getting to the bathroom on time and peeing themselves. When they start doing the funny walk just let them take care of their bathroom needs and don't que any other task before that.

I realize that clicking on the sim allows from the same interaction. However, since the sims is a simulation game, I'd like to have the option to simulate real experiences, like shopping in a department store and using the dressing room to plan outfits. It's also not realistic for retail stores to have dressers in place of dressing rooms.

And while modders may offer suitable content, not everyone supports mods or has access these options (for instance console players). That's why it'd be nice to see these ideas patched into actual gameplay.

Similar to how the snowy escape pack added bath house lockers (which have the same functionality as dressers) and the for rent patch added an update for shoe racks and sinks, these additional features may not be strictly necessary, but many players value the attention to detail. Sometimes I get tired of clicking on the sim and searching through various menus for interactions. I like having an interactive object to perform certain interactions. For instance, there are interactive shells in henford and chestnut ridge that allow for "window shopping," a function I value because I appreciate being able to have that extra realism in the game.
