Next Expansion Speculation?

I also didn't know that a lot of the gurus for Sims 4 also worked on medieval

:smiley:

Oh yeah the stream was fun and interesting. Got to learn a lot abt the behind the scenes stuff. Plus I liked when one of the gurus "grimsurudoi" was playing sims medieval and talked about the development and how different it was from the main franchise. And he also talked about when they decided to add religion and alcohol "mead" (I think). I never played sims medieval but I might try it one day. I hope they make a second one.

Yeah, I love the streams where they show off a little of what happens behind the curtain.

I also know that GrimSuruDoi is working on some sort of project for Sims 4, possibly the same one as SimGuruJessica. But I know that because he's been sporadic in his crossword streams because of it. (He apologizes, even though we all agree that work and family are perfectly valid reasons not to stream.)

Oh ok. Also now I know it takes about 3 days to make an object like the log that's a pond decoration in the game. And the designers or artists watch the videos of people reviewing cas or build objects for a new pack that they worked on.

Not sure if it's been said already but the blooming rooms kit images with the guy playing the guitar and the girl singing does seem to point to bands

Is that Sim even singing? I thought she'd talk about the nice weather.

She's doing the hand gestures sims do when they're singing

But do sims have talk bubbles when singing? Anyway, the guitar player seems to have a move that I can't recall, so I think you might be onto something re bands :)

Cula Bula but these 2 basegame updates better be epic. No more swatches. Except for ceilings swatches of course. Speaking of which...

"...free updates that add dimension to your sim's lives..."

Let's wishfully think about a couple of X-tra Base Game Dimensions they could still add to The Sims 4 in order to make the rest of this Season of Simselves be an instant Smash Hit:

1. The Dimension of The Curstomizable Ceilings: those glaring white abominations are no help to my photosensitivity. I've been wearing my sunglasses since the game released.
2. The Dimension of The Body Hair Menu: Because we need a bodyhair menu even if you think we don't.
3. The Dimension of The Liberated Babe: EA, do everybody else a favour. (I just want occult things and bands).
4. The Dimension of The Cars: Do you really think we can't have cars? Think again.
5. The Dimension of The Spiral Stairs: It would suit my industrial lofts and all that delightful stuff we got with Batuu.
6. The Dimension of The CAW: I will post an image of my cute little tear of happiness if we're ever to get a Sims 4 CAW Tool.
7. The Dimension of The Sims Personality: Can my evil sims be evil please? Right now they act like they live in Care Bear Land.
8. The Dimension of The More Romantic Interactions The Better: Forget about a Parisian Lurv EP. This should be a basegame update.
9. The Dimension of The Extra Dimensions: Stuff I didn't think about but should be included including townie story progression etc.
10. I've lost count.

Again, by the sound of that tweet we may only be getting two more BG updates this year. Anything from the above is fine by me. Even of we got liberated babes and nothing that actually sparks my interest. It'd be epic, and I'd want it for any of you who want it.
And hey, maybe those nectar bottles on that mandala image represent baby bottles in the shape of nectar bottles. Who knows? Who knows...

Yep, I vote for more dimension in babies, please give us more realistic babies. I would be happy with substantial bug fixes and more dimension in babies this year. We know that another EP is in the works, and probably a GP too I’m assuming.

Sims do the exact same hand gesture when talking though. Haven't got a shot atm, but I have seen it a lot of times.

The move the guitar player does is also base game, @Simmerville.
