I Have Low Expectations for EP10

It’s probably going to be mediocre at best. I’m not getting my hopes up. I haven’t been excited for an expansion pack since Island Living. Although a lot of people wanted Discover University, I didn’t care for it, and I’m only just now starting to warm up to Eco Lifestyle (but still not enough to buy it). What do you think?

That's the way to go. Expect the least and you might, just might get a pleasant surprise. I'm always a pessimist and only now finding out what I can do with University a couple of packs later. Eco Lifestyle I need a manual for but I'm determined to defeat the odds and win without going a bit mad because thieves are everywhere. Sulani has gone off the grid in a big way too, cutting off my electricity whenever I need it, Batuu is providing a pleasant interlude of just ticking the boxes!

What I need as the next Expansion is a gentle one, fixing the bugs and easy to use and plan in. I don't even care if it frees the babies!

i still want a farming pack

Me too, but we won't get a farming pack. This year anyway.

Sims Mobile are getting a treasure map hunt. And George was tweeting about Mystery long time ago. And Frost's twitter name is still redacted and apparently isn't related to Star Wars pack. Maybe we'll get some kind of mystery pack like it's been rumored.

Sounds like Jungle Adventure

The tweet says treasure map and mystery. Jungle Adventure had none of that.

It better not be a pirate-themed pack.

Ever since OR and GTW we knew what amount of depth could be expected from Sims 4: the kind that makes for a fun game, but isn't worth a day one purchase at full price. So I have a hard time understanding where the maybe this one will will give "us" what "we" want mentality comes from.

Personally I'm hoping for a theme that I'm interested in, but at the same time am wary of bugs as well as of more sneakily introduced story progression elements like the visit your mom/should we have a baby/please cheer me up phonecalls and "neighbor bring present" visits from sims living half a world away. That's not the direction I want my game to go.

I haven't really enjoyed a pack since Island Living. I know that pack was lacking too but I just really like Sulani and it's residents.

I think I could of enjoyed Eco Lifestyle if it had been designed better and functioned properly, I really like the concept of it.

After the disappointment of the Star Wars pack I'm actually scared for what could come next. I didn't ever think things would get as bad as adding a whole pack dedicated to Star Wars in the game but here we are and I shall not taint my game with this type of rubbish content.

Island Living is my all-time fav pack. DU I didn't care about either though. I think 10 will be good. I'm guessing it's a winter vacation pack with hotels.

Since I don't know what the next pack is going to be, I have no expectations of it right now.

I hear you. At this moment my expectations are so low, I have none. I'm beginning to feel the way I did when Paramount started making Star Trek series, left, right and sideways, some even overlapping others that were still on the air! I hated Star Trek: The Next Generation and yet I was a very devoted fan of the Original series. I even made sure our dinner was finished and the kitchen clean, in time for my entire family to sit in front of the television for the premier of TNG. What a huge disappointment that was to me. I watched as many of the episodes as I could withstand, before I completely walked away. In my heart I felt as if the ship took off and left me standing, alone, on the dock. I'm starting to feel that way again. I now have a string of packs I haven't purchased. My First Pet; Vampires; Eco Living; Realm of Magic and now the Star Wars one.

At least I now have a rocking chair. Missed out on that in Sims3 due to the fact they packed that item in with Supernatural. I was very grateful aliens were in with weather. But even so, they kept the pointy ears strictly to the aliens, unlike in Sims2. In Sims3 I used a mod until the devs made it possible for us to use pointy ears on "human" Sims. I have a mod, this time, too. But, alas and alack, I'm beginning to think I won't be spending any more money on the Sims4, if this keeps up.

I always just keep myself open minded whenever there's a new pack. I don't mind to have a high expectation because I always expect the best coming out from the developers. If it's something great & fit to my gameplay, I'll buy it immediately. Else, I'll wait until the next sale.

Same... but it’s confirmed to not be farming.

Maybe it's not related to the next pack, but...
