SimGuruGrant said on the latest livestream that possibly the next(?) EP could be an idea that he really wants to make, but he ruled out that it would be a dystopian fallout-esque pack or any sort of disaster survival pack, so what could he have been talking about? I don't think it's seasons because that's such a standard EP he wouldn't make a fuss over it, and thanks to SimGuruSarah's tweet we know University isn't in the works, and I don't think they would do another animal based pack like Horses or farming immediately after C&D, so I think it could be a whole new theme all together.

Seriously? Wow. So... when are we getting Seasons? :(

I mean of course we could be getting seasons next, and he was just excited that his idea might be made at some point in the future, but it really did sound like he was really excited for the next EP, so who knows!His exact response was 'I think we're going to make the one that I want to make more than anything.' 'The one I most want to make sincerely, we're making.. at some point, maybe.'

I was really dissapointed about him saying the fallout style pack.. I was hoping that it could be a future pack. I hope it's either a farming pack or celebrity style pack. I feel like weather should be patched in and then individual themed game packs should be released for seasons featuring all the activities and a related world.

I think it's superheroes. Grant looks to me like a superhero lover type of dude. Moreover, superheroes were in one of the first surveys.

SGG worked a lot on Medieval, and there's all sorts of callbacks to it in 4. He's also said he's a big fan of mid-century design. Maybe a Time Travel pack?Can you imagine a 1950's style Sims world?

I would like it to be a new theme but I have no idea what it could be...

There's a lot hints for seasons so I would expect that but maybe we won't get seasons next.

I know, and I'm sure it stings coming right after that interview where they said they really wanted to make a fallout pack.

A celebrity/fame pack I could see him getting excited about because I think he really enjoyed working on Late Night, but I think it's too soon for another animal based pack like farming.

We had a 50's retro furniture pack (all the rooms were included) back in S3, I'd love that pack to make an appearance in S4.

Was that the midcentury modern pack? That was one of my favourite store sets!

I think if they do a back in time historical EP it should be set further in the past, like victorian times or even medieval times.

Grant obviously loves this Cats & Dogs pack and it's a "standard EP", as you say, so why couldn't it be seasons? You don't know how he feels about seasons and seasons usually follows a Pets pack.

I don't know it just sounded like he was excited for something new, I also don't think seasons will be an EP, I think they could just about squeeze it into a GP.

God I really hope not :# The idea on paper could be cool but no way would they be able to do it justice in a life simulation like The Sims.
