I have to say I don't understand how more base game content could ever be a bad thing. Are we really saying that we want to pay more rather than less? How could a richer base game ever be a bad thing? Here I am seeing people saying they wouldn't buy the game if it contained more than they want? Seriously? As long as you can toggle features on and off, why is more a problem?
Also I agree with the idea that new DLC should be new, things that haven't been done before. So give us seasons as base game (and a working club system, parenting interactions, semi active and active careers and possibly pets) and then come up with new ideas for DLC. Some could be the same (own your business, fame), but how about a full tourism pack where we can own and run hotells and b&bs? How about a realestate pack where you can build, develop, own and sell realestate and rent out your apartments (that you can of course build in any world)?
