Maybe the "new Sims experience" could be optional multiplayer a la Stardew Valley.
definitely unrealistic but what would everyone's feelings about that be?

NO!!!! Will never buy another sims multiplayer or ported to other people games sims pack or game. I have tried both and they both rot. Porting takes hours of waiting to be in someone elses game for 2-3 minutes on one fixed point and keeps you from playing the game until your port time is linked - more times than I can count a whole day passed until I could play again on the porting - and you can not even interact in the world. Sims online was even worse - it had almost nothing in common with the regular sims game - you had to use nothing but a pre-made, just one town for every one with no creativity in the world at all - and you were stuck with just Maxis made every thing - plus anything you did buy your sim or their house cost real money. No cheats, no mods, no families, you even had to earn roommates and there was a limit of 4 sims even having to earn 3 of them. Believe me my past 4 experiences with Sims online and then my several tries with the showtime port - which buy the way ended when Sims 3 stopped production because the port was disconnected so now no new sims 3 players even have that option.
Believe me when it comes to online the pc version of the sims does not make a good multi-player because part of the sims pc is all about creativity - and when you lose that to have online play believe me it is not worth it. I have 31 simmers in my family that play this game and thought oh it will be fun to play together - it wasn't. My family gave it up in less than 2 weeks - and we all tried all 4 versions of the Sims online - so it is not as if we never tried it - but saw for ourselves - this is not a good online game when it is no longer made like the game we love - with all kinds of towns. As it is we dislike the lack of creativity in Sims 4, never mind accepting nothing but one town and pre-set sims in real time with real money.
Oh and don't say it will have a single player option - who wants a single player option of that game? Sims with no creativity at all - forget it.
