Seasons? Too good to be true. Well, i'm SURE they'll make a seasonal EP, but I'm also pretty sure it will be the last one. I somehow do'nt trust this info, they listed too many things to fit in one EP.

Nah, too rich and interesting.

As for religion: they could hardly leave that out of a "medieval life simulation". They did their best to make it as stupid as possible, however - I guess they believed that making it "funny" (in their sense of the word, of course) would take the edge out of it. I am still wondering where they got the idea for "two religions", though. Franciscans vs. Dominicans would be the closest medieval analogy but I can hardly imagine anyone at EA knowing anything about that.

Well, The Sims never really have religion, but they do have religious holidays themed items like Christmas tree all the way back in the first game (was it from Livin' Large or House Party? I forgot which). Although anyone could hardly call that religious...

And what about the fact that it takes Showtime's slot, with past date, and subway system that we already have from Late Night listed as new feature? I'd say fake.

I'm starting to have this fear that they will be adding more social feature shit in the expansions that come after Showtime.

What more could they be adding? Sims getting the option to call you on your mobile to remind you to feed them?

Noo, I mean them adding more ways to 'play with your friends'. Imagine how they'd implicate something like that in a weather expansion. I don't want to know.

Trust me, EA will find someway to either had social features or make Seasons lame.

it sounds like someone tried to get our hopes up with the sound of a good EP. EA will be likely to make one EP for winter, one for summer, etc.

My guess would be that the "weather" and "seasons" will mostly consist of just visual effects, and not much actual interactive stuff to do. Easy to make for EA, and people will buy it because it looks cool. They probably won't be putting any social stuff in it, because they don't need to as people will buy it because of the coolness factor alone. They'll save the gimmick tactics for EPs like SHT that have very little actual game content. : P

Too bad they will leave out the social stuff, because the only thing I can really think of to chat about while playing the Sims would be the weather.

Let me just make this clear so you don't get disappointed:

1. The information for this 'Occasions' EP comes from a Wiki site. No The Sims EP/SP title has ever been leaked via Wikipedia or any Wiki site. Plus, the information calls for it to be the sixth EP. The sixth EP was SHT.

2. Information for the supernatural EP was leaked through an official patch's code. Aside from the Generations/Pets trailer leak, that was the earliest we have ever had an EP leaked to us. EA can not be expected to confirm it until around August.

♫ Keeping this here until EA gives us a proper playable woodwind/brass instrument ♫

Be that as it may, it shows - to me at least - that EA are capable of adding religion to their game if they actually put some thought into i- ohh what am I saying? Never mind
