Nectar Making, I'm nervous

So far we now have Asian stuff/ world & France’s Nectar. Now we just need Egyptian stuff in Sims 4. Then we’ll almost have World Adventure.???

Even though I was initially excited about Snowy Escape's Asian world, I haven't bought it yet bc I'm not particularly interested in the approach they took. I really hope they make a pack with a Chinese theme - I'd LOVE a rural Chinese world. The koi fish in SE are just decorative, there isn't any Asian gameplay besides the hot pot... I want instruments, games (majong, Chinese checkers), hobbies (calligraphy and/or ink art, martial arts, more intricate bonsai), books, astrology, crops and recipes... I really enjoy how interesting Chinese architecture and decor looks, including Chinese rural aesthetics (not just royal). The Japanese theme of SE is great, but not exactly what I wanted for an Asian EP.

An Egyptian GP would be interesting! I'd be curious about its implementation since Jungle Adventures took World Adventures' place regarding tomb exploration. Even if this pack would still be tomb exploration, I'd probably prefer this one since TS4's visuals could make the ancient Egyptian tombs look STUNNING. I'd like if this world would be a vacation-residential hybrid like Mount Komorebi - it would look strikingly different from other worlds and have a lot of potential for activities in public space. A marketplace jammed with stalls, boats on the Nile river, crocodiles that can "drown" you if you don't heed their warnings... All the flowy drapes used in the architecture (I'm not sure what they're called) would add something we don't really have yet, a variety of new pretty carpets, wall murals etc. I'm unsure what other gameplay would be relevant to add... I doubt a taxidermy skill is coming :lol: Deciphering the ancient language could be a 5-level skill similar to excavation, and reading the hieroglyphics could be key to solving puzzles and finding magical artefacts.

As for a Parisian or Italian world, I originally thought that nectar making would come in such a pack. I hope that we get this world since it would be beautiful - they'd just have to make it distinct from Tartosa, preferably by adding apartments in tightly-packed townhouses. I'd hope for candy-making and toy-making as hobbies. It would make sense to add cross-pack compatibility with nectar making... Maybe there's another variety of grapes here - without Horse Ranch it's enjoyed on food platters and as grape juice (might as well add a crop juicer and/or smoothie maker).
