On the subject of the amount of content that would go into a "Romance-Only" GP, I found an old survey that describes a "
Love Life" game pack:

I could see them releasing a GP like this, where the new/"paid" content would be in the form of the new Matchmaking skill, more BB/CAS items for weddings/dates, a new world with new dating locations, bachelorette parties, first crushes for kids, first dates for teens, throwing rice at weddings, etc.
And then there could be a free base game update that revamped BG Romance by adding highly-requested features from previous games like:
- slow dancing
- cuddling in bed/sofa
- more kissing/make out interactions and animations
- chemistry/attraction system
- zodiac signs
- making it so that wedding guests ACTUALLY SIT DOWN during the ceremony :#
Personally, I wouldn't mind having hotels/casinos incorporated w/ a Romance GP, but that's my preference as someone whose playstyle is equal parts building and gameplay. I've been DYING to be able to build resorts in TS4 so if that is what ends up happening I'll be a happy camper :)
