📝 EP Survey 2025

My thoughts on this survey. Out of all of them I like 1, 3, 6, and 7 the most.

1. Ocean Exploration - love everything about this proposed pack
2. Community Careers - only interested in the hairdressing salon/career. I found the firefighter career in TS3 too repetitive for my taste. Maybe if they can work from home and just respond to emergencies if needed, like a sort of volunteer position. The dentist career sounds boring, and you hardly ever see the sims teeth anyway. Maybe they could replace the dentist with something equally torturous but with more benefits like acupuncture.
3. Car Life - sounds good, but they need to add in motorbikes and bicycles repair shops as well. 
4. Work on Wheels - this sounds  a lot like the portable sales tables and we already have a lot of those. Also, how big are those trucks going to be to fit inside them enough space to run a business. The current truck/van type cars we have in game aren't very large.
5. Reality TV - absolutely not interested in this. Sounds a lot like events type gameplay, go here, go there, do this, do that.
6. Suburban Living - this pack sounds nice with all the new careers, hairdressing and cars. 
7. Van Life - love this. could be used as alternative lifestyle or for vacations too and it has cars, surfing and new musical instruments.

I feel that. I've had ideas for making aquariums, and in way can... but not ones that can be saved to the gallery. When seeing that, I wondered if that would be something that could be changed in the game. Would you finally be able to actually save the fish in the tanks? Or would it be a case of you have to restock them every time the lot is placed? If so, would you be able to have full range of choice in what the tank is stocked with?

I would love to have boats again, expanding fishing career and whale watching! I also love the idea of having firefighters, EMTs and mechanics in the game. Aquariums would be great too! I like Ocean Exploration, The Community Careers, Suburban Living, The Car Life most, then Work on Wheels. Realty TV would be the last for me. I enjoy active careers in the game, and have missed the firefighting career in Sims 3. 

A closed circle survey is a really bad idea.

A lot of these sounds like potential packs that they can do once they have implemented cars in the game. Which makes me happy, I have wanted cars for a long time.  I think they would benefit from implementing some sort of travel and carry system in the game too because I think that would improve the packs they suggest here. Give sims buffs when traveling together with vehicles or something, some benefits so you want to use vehicles instead of just teleporting.

This is probably how I would rank them:
The Sims 4 Car Life - Good car ideas, I think they should implement cars as base game so all packs can benefit from them.
The Sims 4 Work on Wheels - Sounds like a good addition to Car Life.
The Sims 4 Suburban Living - It could add a lot to every World by adding things like lawn mowing, truck driving, fixing cars but I'm not so sure about the secrets thing, I don't think it worked in For Rent where they were just random things you found.
The Sims 4 Community Careers - Fire fighter, hair salon and dentist sounds like interesting careers to play.
The Sims 4 Ocean Exploration - As long as not everything turns into rabbit holes and we have real underwater areas and real houseboats and some sort of travel system I think this one could work well.
The Sims 4 Van Life - It could work but it needs some sort of travel system, buffs, allowing us to carry and customize things I think.
The Sims 4 Reality TV - I don't think this one will work.

I wanna see bands, dance forms, and more talents!

If we get aquarium exhibits you'll be able to upload to the gallery. 

They should combine all the car packs into one Expansion.

I also didn't get the survey. Too bad. 

Some of the cool ideas from the survey last year seem to have gone like a futuristic pack. I am surprised to see a pack named suburban living. That's all the sims is about, a suburban lifesimulator. So is that pack a base game refresh? 

I need modern monarchy.
