When it comes to the world ideas, I put the "Chinese Countryside" at the top. Partly because China has one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the world, and partly because in my heart of hearts I hope a Chinese-inspired world will come with Martial Arts skills and improved fights for our sims. The cartoon fight cloud is alright and all...but some kung-fu wouldn't push the game out of its T rating. I mean, Street Fighter games are consistently rated T, and the gameplay is entirely punching and kicking (and that but bump thing Rainbow Mika does).

I hadn't even thought of that. It would be fun.

I 1000% agree, but seeing anything Chinese related right now just leaves me feeling so uncomfortable. I'd rather see Japanese culture (I've always favoured Japan in Asian countries I'd ever visit) in the game or Korean tbh

Aw, that sounds rough. Especially what with all the electronics and apparel we use every day. Or paper and umbrellas and myriad things. Hope it eases up for you. Maybe by the time any of these packs are ready it won't be so bad.

So, are Culinary Quest and Fan Club Creator consistently at the bottom? I mean, I agree. It's not something I'd mind if it were there, but I'd 100% prefer they devote their energy and resources to literally any of the other options. They seemed like such weird, random proposals lol Since we already have the cooking skill and career, and since we already did some fan related stuff in Get Famous, I can't even imagine what kind of pack these would be featured in. They certainly don't warrant a pack of their own. What would that even look like?

I’m not entirely sure why some simmers are so against the high school idea....

I thought some simmers wanted their Sims’ lives to be harder? I know if I had a pack like that it would spell the end of my rainbows and unicorns utopia instantly!! ? ??

Because high school sucks and there is nothing they could do to make an active school pack interesting.

Please - No story progression unless it is completely optional!
Other than that scary idea - there were a lot of lovely ideas.

Surveys are.. surveys. I so much hope something based on these, also actually happens too :)

@GracieO312 also the high school they are offering is American high school.and for many of us this would not be an appealling idea. The game is americanised enough already. I was disappointed in DU in how culturally USA specific it was.

I also didnt like that the description of cliques etc seemed to hint that they were going to include a certain amount of institutionalised bullying which srems so common in US school tv and movies too.

Besides story progression I like total control of my game and really dont want random things happening, fan clubs and the culinary option I swear they just took some of the list I made here and made a survey. Oh please give me highschool, cheerleaders, bands, body hair, shopping malls, romance and dating options, traits overhaul, consequences with relationships, short term desires, fix the babies give kids and toddlers more I want it all.

I voted highly for the Brazilian Beach World. Maybe they could add scuba diving,wind surfing and other stuff Sulani didn't get. Perhaps liveable underwater lots for mermaids.

I also voted that top of the list, but what I really would like is an Australian beach world. The beaches here are quite different from the ones in Sulani. Surfing would be on my list of activities, but there is also the danger element, like stingers, crocodiles, rough surf. There are beaches in northern parts of Australia where you take a big risk just getting in the water!

Why are Korea and China included as vacation options and not Japan? Sims 3 already had China, and I know Korea is the "trendy" thing, but I'd prefer Japan. Maybe a ski resort and hot springs in Hokkaido?

I don't want story progression. If they're going to add it to Sims 4 at least it should be optional. I've seen the horrors of story progression on people who use MCCC and it stresses me out. :#

Really? I use MCCC so I can halt story progression and it works like a dream.

I was thinking the same thing while taking the survey.
