more kits / packs with only cas, and only hobbies, skills, and/or careers

I would love a kit that only added careers or aspirations. Most of the time, besides CAS items, it's the CC I download the most: items to make the gameplay MORE. I don't really need more build/buy items (although new rugs, curtains and plants are always a plus!) but things to build on gameplay (like careers and aspirations) I will buy.

Yes, I would love that too!

I was thinking about how much I love the gameplay of the Life and Death Expansion Pack, with the reborn feature and all of this, and I would be so happy to have those extra gameplay elements, but without all the build / buy items.

They can't make kits with Gameplay like Bust A Dust is the only gameplay kit. 

They have made a lot of progress in quality since then. I’m sure they could do it.

I would like more functional objects, interactions, activities and craftables.

That would be fun! I always love crafting in games, and it's nice when there are a lot of things that you can craft. Maybe I never get high enough in my skill in The Sims 4 but I have noticed the lack of crafting recipes for sure. And I like the idea of functional objects too - like I know everyone complained about how big the cupcake machine is but I love the fact that there is a machine that makes cupcakes! And I like the other things like that too, I have been discovering more of lately. Also there is a cozy game that uses a skateboard and rollerblades and I have found that is absolutely the most fun way to get around in a cozy game, especially the skateboard because you can do tricks, and just go really fast. So something like that would be fun too.

The only thing I don't like about the cupcake machine is that it doesn't pack the cupcakes in a box, so it looks more commercial and less home made. Skateboards would be awesome.
