As you remember we could vote for the existing expansions improvements on April. I am curious which Expansion Pack you choosed and why. If you chose more expansion pack, please vote for your first choice.

Oof I don't remember every pack I chose but I DO know one of the ones I picked was Cats & Dogs. I want those beaches to have swimmable oceans! Plus that pack was a pretty big disappointment for only including, well.. cats and dogs.. I miss racoons getting into my garbage cans, and also just all the little critters you could have in TS2 and TS3. Still holding out for horses......I think I might've also chose Island Living since I would REALLY like the mermaids to get a power leveling system like the vampires and spellcasters have. Also I would like scuba diving not to just be a rabbit hole. My mermaids need an underwater lot! I wish that explorable cave led to a hidden lot as well like the other worlds have, that was a disappointment...

I like Get To Work, but it could use some enhancements.-The hospital simulation. I would like to see the other hospital staff actually performing their roles while my sims is performing his/hers.-Hospital visits and general health.I would like for my sim to visit the hospital for checkups and emergencies, so they can prevent disease or go there if their health takes a sudden turn. Also their lifestyle should influence their healthiness.-Retail. I want NPCs to restock the store when my sims, who do not own the business, are out shopping for things they can use.It really kills immersion to have to go to the store owner, restock the store, and then go back to your sims so they have something available to buy.-Aliens need an overhaul. I wish they were as much fun to play as vampires and spell casters.I know those are stand alone packs, but aliens could still be improved more.

I think I chose Get to Work, lol. Almost sure. And Realm of Magic too. I think Get to Work deserves to be updated with a retail overhaul or the addition of grocery stores, and Realm of Magic could use an overhaul too imo. Spell casting for children and more difficulty/challenge for spellcasters (slower XP gain) would be cool.

I'm pretty sure I chose Get To Work because I knew everyone was going to pick Island Living, lol.For me, it was about Occults. I like the Mermaids the way they are, I don't think they really need the Vampire treatment because the lore isn't as expansive. But Aliens could be so much more. Of course, since then we've gotten Journey to Batuu so that kind of helps fill the gap, except there's no extra powers of The Force so that's a bummer.If I were to choose now though, I'd probably say either Island Living to expand underwater and the cave gameplay or Cats and Dogs to include small pets and other breeds like wolves (to prepare for Werewolves). For Game Packs I chose Realm of Magic because magic has so much more potential. But I also wouldn't mind expanding Batuu to include playable Jedi and Sith and Force powers.

I chose GTW because it was the only one I had, and still is, at the time. The retail part of that pack needs some serious work and the other careers are still experiencing bugs that were supposed to have been fixed awhile ago. Still my choice because as I said still the only pack I own. I can't bring myself to move on to the next one until this one is fixed.Edit: Also aliens could use some work as well.

I've always thought Discover University was horrible, because it's essentially a rabbit hole pack. What's the point of sending your student (or teacher) to university if you can't come with them?

You could take your Sims to some classes in sims 3 university, and it was one of the most boring things ever.

If i can be honest, almost everypack needing an improvement or two.

Island Living though, it doesnt have any sustainable gameplay unlike any other EP that came before it.

I would update cats and dogs where you can actually see the ui and see what skills they already learned and motives. My favorite pet expansion is from the first sims and it would have been great to expand and take inspiration and make it better in the sims 4.

I voted for expanding the retail system in GtW so that we can have a store at home.

I chose Island Living which is a pack I was really hyped about but ended up being very empty.

We are more than year from the survey and no packs are improved at the moment. Whats more I feel that some of them are worse because EA regularly implement some of EP content to the basegame or another packs. That's why I think that previous expansions need some love.

I chose - Get to work - because I thought that only three active careers was a poor show and that the retail business careers could also be improved. I wanted my Sims to be the chef in my restaurant. Also, I desperately wanted Aliens/Sixam to be improved.

I don't remember if I ever voted but these are that I feel strongly about:

Get to Work

The Retail in this pack is geared toward big chain corporate store. I wouldn't even mind if there was a small business game pack at this point.
As it is if I want to run a hat store or a socks store I still have to use those full body dolls, it makes no sense, plus they look so corporate and dull there is no variety. Also it would be nice to be able to have store at home the proper way.

Island Living

In comparison to Eco Lifestyle, this pack has really shallow execution of the whole protection of oceans theme, It's a pretty place, but void of any substantial game-play. Plus mermaids need at least their own bassinet, they really feel like an afterthought in this pack, just something extra and not an actual life state (I hope no occult ever get the same treatment as what mermaids got, it's just sad)

I chose City Living because I wish they'd make apartments better and let us build our own apartment buildings like we could in previous game versions.

Like some others I cannot remember what pack it was, but here I chose CL as it is time to expand on upping the Apt feature in regards to adding Apts or even building Apts from scratch in other area other the same pack as this 2021 and technology has improved since 2014 and what is so bad the older versions one could make Apts from scratch, but not Sims 4.
