I'm tired of kits and the latest base game updates weren't my cup of tea either.

Yes, I feel the same, and I do hope the upcoming EP is something people have been asking for. We really need Generations and updated babies, people have been asking so long already, it finally needs to happen. I wouldn't like to settle for something else. And I'd be really disappointed if it wasn't an EP coming up in January/February, but an SP AGAIN. I don't even want a GP, I want an EP. I am really disappointed we didn't get a second EP this year.

I am very disappointed with this year's content in general. DHD was boring, nothing I really needed, nice items, yes, but that was about it. CL was fun, but it was less fun than I hoped for, I wanted to breed livestock, grow crops and not just feed 2 cows or Lamas with their own sheds and grow oversized vegetables to enter contests. The latter would have been fun on top, but what about crops?
Also, what about horses? :( The only things I really loved about CL were the new family activities (cooking etc), but not being able to picnic on the ground, seriously? :(

We really need a pack coming with more family activities like playing boardgames, going for walks in EVERY world, basic games for kids (tag, cops and robbers, etc.). And I really want updated babies, real sims you can edit in CAS, I want them to be able to learn how to crawl and walk, toys and clothes for them, strollers, little blankets, I want them to have genetics, I want them to be the best we ever had, like TS4 toddlers. I love TS4-toddlers, they're the best in my opinion. I know they can do the same with babies. So why aren't they coming already?

I'd also like active school gameplay for elementary and high school with lots of new after school activities, perhaps being done similar like DU, even though I would like to follow my Sim into class. I would love a school pack to come with bands too. Bands/singing/music are a popular after school acitivity, so it would fit. I'd also like to build boarding schools and have an active teacher career, but I doubht we'd get that because we got the rabbit hole teacher career with DU. I also would like playable preschool for toddlers. I would love that. I hope active school gameplay considers all of the younger live stages. Oh and we need group activities for little toddlers, like singing and dancing with an adult sitting in a circle, doing little crafts together, playing catch, wrestle for fun on the floor, swings for toddlers, these little things to sit on we had in TS3 (you know what I mean, I don't know the English word), a little marygoround for toddlers... And we need proper playground equipment like seesaws, slides, climbing towers and marygorounds for children too...

They really need to wow me with these packs.

Oh and then we really need hotels too and more romance/wedding activities. Activities, not only stuff or items! I would love a romantic getaway pack coming with hotels and wedding activities like honey moon, games for weddings etc!

I agree 100%. I'd like to see hotels we can run with actual resort activities, or a theme park-based pack with actual rides sims can interact with. I rarely play live mode much these days because of just the lack of stuff to do on community lots. I think Snowy Escape was a great start with the "actual stuff to do" part, but it just wasn't a pack I was interested in.

I am worried that EA with lowered interest around the Sims, due to no packs for such a long time. Will stress out a pack filled with bugs that will hurt the game play.

So no changes from the norm, got it.

Same. I absolutely refuse to buy kits and it had worried me a bit that we've had nothing but kits since CL's release, but now I honestly dont care. CL is nice but it still wasnt my thing, and Ive been ready for some new content. Kits do not do anything for me, and I havent updated my game in like 2 months. You could ask me what new updates the game has gotten and I'll say something along the lines of "I dunno new chairs?" I honestly havent even been playing the game at all since there's nothing new that I want to do and there's still bugs in my game that havent been addressed. And since the game isnt offering actual packs for the rest of the year, this consumer went and put her money into other newly released video games that have been taking up my time. Money that was very well spent.

I am going with some type of romance pack considering the update we just got with all the meddling with babies, engagements, break ups, hook ups etc.

@simgirl1010
Thank you for the link!

A generations pack with a side of romance/relationship focus would be great. Bring in an attraction system, more dynamic relationships system, etc.

I'm not holding my breath for free babies but I certainly won't be against it. Elders could use some focus as well.

I find kids to be relatively set but I do wish we could get more aspirations for them. Tired of doing the same 4 each time. Done them so many times I could do it in my sleep.

Can we get something that we never had before, like superhero’s lol

yes please

Ooo, I would so love a Superhero Expansion Pack. They can call the new world Avengers Justice City.
Also, it would be so perfect for my Storm Xmen sim to finally have mutant powers. And my Darknight couple sims to finally have a Batmobile, Batplane & Batcycle. Finally, having my Supergirl sim to be able to fly & have a proper superhero cape & outfit. B)
