I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I don't want to start over again with another base game just yet - there are still some packs I'd like to see in S4, and I do enjoy playing it. On the other, they are too far down the road to do some of the AI improvements many of us would like to see. So, maybe three more years.
However, I'm not entirely trusting that S5 will be the game we want - multiplayer will place limitations on the game, even in single-player mode. If it's in the 'cloud', single player or not we will have frustrations at times when either our local connection or their servers are down. It's not unusual now to have problems with Origin when everyone in the world is logging it to play EA games, and most of it is coming from people who play multiplayer games. They'll need to beef up their infrastructure if they want everyone playing in the cloud. I'm also not keen on anything that would require monthly payments to 'rent' my game.
I didn't play S4 for three years because they left out toddlers. I won't be jumping on the S5 bandwagon until I'm sure it isn't only a YA party-party game and that single-player play isn't too limited by the multiplayer option.
