If next pack is romance, are you ok with no new world?

I don't think we should give up features in advance when the Sims 4 EPs are already very light on features. Sims 3 World Adventures came with a ton of stuff (photography, nectar-making and martial arts skills plus 3 new worlds and a ton of other stuff). The Sims 4 team can just do better with EPs.

I agree, however EA always push developers to finish packs on deadlines and always complain about "not enough budget" sadly i think good old days of sims 3 packs quality is gone..

but if not including new world contributed more to gameplay then it's better in the long run..

If you have all the EPs there's plenty of worlds to pick from, but are there really any good gameplay?

I have all EPs and I like the game, but as the consumer I don't want to encourage them to lower the bar anymore than they already do, because I think we will end up with no world and lackluster gameplay. I also have a lot of mods and given what EA did with Lifestyles and NAPs, I don't trust them to implement an attraction system that's better than the one mods provide already. But Seasons did come with a lot of features I like and no world but I don't see them pulling that off with a romance pack.

I think a romance pack would be a game pack anyway, so a world wouldn't be expected.

I don't care much about romance to be honest, so I'd take a new world over a few more romantic options any day. Then again, I have been pleasantly surprised by packs before, when ideas I wasn't originally interested in suddenly became interesting because of how they were implemented, so I'm not against it either. It really depends on what's in the pack and how good it is overall.

The reason for also wanting a world, its could be Paris themed and I also think what more could they do with romance, we already have woohoo and alot romantic interactions, the only things we dont have is slow dancing, giving romantic gifts like heart box chocolates and a bouquet of flowers, a attraction system could be added, if they had a world they could add premade community lots like wedding venues, a proper cinema, mrs crumplebottom as a negative to it ?, they could also bring back the classic heart bed and hot tub

I don’t care for a new world if that means my sim can bring his Romantic butt everywhere he likes.
Like in real life, gameplay is everything when it comes to romance. No matter where you are. ?

It really depends on what else is in the pack. A pack focused solely on improving Romantic Gameplay - be it Game Pack or Expansion Pack - isn't my cup of tea, so it will need something more for me to purchase it outside of a bundle or on sale.

One option would be some other type of gameplay - heists, for example, or some sort of new Lot type (hotels, Multi-functional lots, casinos), or perhaps horses or cars (even if they're just a lot item and can't be driven) Even a suite of new personality traits and an extra trait slot (or two) might be worth it.

The other option would be a cool new world based on somewhere that doesn't feel like anywhere we have so far ... a Mediterranean village, for example.

If the pack is just Romantic Stuff Pack Take 2 with expanded romance systems (chemistry, attraction, slow dancing, etc.) added on then it will go on the back burner until I need the pack to fill out a bundle, no matter how in-depth those romance systems are. I'm not saying I don't want those things, but they're not important enough to my gameplay that I'm willing to shell out $20+ just to get them.

For my kind of playstyle i have enough with the worlds i own. Newcrest in my saves is almost always empty... so i'ld trade the world for more and deeper gameplay.

I'm totally fine with no new world. I'd be overjoyed if a new pack focused on my creations instead of adding new ones.

I really want more gameplay that fleshes out my Sims on the homelot (or in any world) instead of a new world where you can do one or two new events. I find myself rarely visiting other places as it is.
