Eh, I thought Island Living was good, though more of a GP. The world, Sulani, is excellent. I think it could have been a stronger pack if it included hotels or a small area specifically for vacationers. I actually liked getting a livable beach world. I also think that since I'm not that interested in playable mermaids, there might have been a chunk of content that just didn't appeal to me.
A lot of people complained about CL and I thought that was a great EP when I started playing TS4.
Anyway, I think that getting away from predictable content is mostly a good idea. It doesn't mean that there won't be demand. If in doubt, keep polling the community. I think what we're seeing is that it's a big community with some very different styles of players. I'm a player with my own style and I sometimes shift between a few ways of playing to different degrees.
Some of the stuff that I want is getting requested more often so I hope that we'll see it. I'm ok with being surprised as well.
I've also enjoyed Island Living, and agree with the GP statement. The world of Sulani is one of my favorites, and I love the beach lots as well. I love the CAS and Build/Buy, new careers, lot traits, and the addition of mermaids (though I'm not a major occult player), but I do believe that they could've and should've been fleshed out more.
Anyway, as for the future unexpected and surprising content, I'm looking forward to whatever is coming. I'm ready for something new.
I never was a fan of Strangerville, but that was more of a lack of appeal thing. Otherwise, I enjoyed the newness to it; it wasn't something we had seen before.
