Three Expansion Pack Ideas

Royalty: I used to play Sims Medieval and loved it so much and wish we had something similar from the Sims 4. CAS would be amazing and The world could be modeled after modern day London, UK, and Royalty mechanics could work similarly to fame in that the work they do adds to their reputation as a monarch or public figure. From my understanding, there’s already tons of lore about a ‘Princess Cordelia’ already canon in the game with tons of memorabilia which suggests she went missing (Amelia Earheart style). This itself could be a huge mission within the pack and could even add ‘Historian’ skill as our sim gets closer to finding the remains of Cordelia. There’s also a shipwreck somewhere in Sulani, so I imagine there could be overlap with the island living pack and maybe even delve into mermaid lore (too much?).

Boarding School: Boarding school would be an amazing way to flesh out more activities and lore for children and teens and could be an amazing way to introduce pre-teens as I’ve noticed that is something many simmers would love. It would act similarly to the University pack, and would be a great way for pre-adult sims to interact with one another and build relationships with one another. There could be a delinquency reputation, where some Sims have secret parties, talk back to teachers, or fight with other students, resulting in visitations or calls from parents. Maybe there’s an option to travel to classes with them as well. Again thinking about CAS and how much cool, chic, clothing they could put together, also decorating boarding rooms for the year could be really fun. 

Superheroes: This could be another Occult option, where Simmers are either born gifted or have to have a certain type of near death experience (Life & Death) to gain superpowers. There could be a max maybe 5 different powers (Telekinesis, Mind Control, Elemental, Invisibility, Shapeshifting: Sims/Animals). This could again connect with Fame + Reputation meters, as some Sims could become evil, creating adversaries or natural nemesis. An added job could be going on missions to save sims, and joining a team (alot like Avengers hahaha) which overlaps with Get Together. I could see there being a social dynamic where many sims don’t accept the existence of Superpower Sims, which could affect friendships, familial, and romantic relationships down the line. 

I know EA probably has been working on new pack ideas already slated for 2025, but I’m really hoping these could eventually be added! What do you guys think?
