While i dont have any data, if league of legends has told me anything then that pandering to chinese audiences seems to bring big buck.
Generally if we should actually get another year of support id be in full support of a pack that panders hard to the chinese, make it a china scenery pack with the golden pheasent, voldemort monkey, either peeres david deer or reveese muntjak and either the tanuiki, yellow throated marten or any other cooler animal im not thinking of right now + the chinese water dragon as the exhibit and some gorgeous chinese inspired scenery and you not only got lots of cash on your hand but also a most likly generally very well recieved pack.
Especally scenery wise theres so much that frontier could do with a revisit to the asian theme so im confident that especally the builders would jump on such a pack for the pieces alone

I'd like to note one thing. While we're great on apes and lemurs, the old world is very lacking in monkeys. India has no monkey, Africa has the ground dwelling Mandrill and is in great need of some more arboreal species like the Guereza or Diana monkey, also the Baboon. Another hole in the roster is any nocturnal monkey.

If I had to prioritize the monkey slots in the roster just to cover the "basics", I'd do it in this order (also maybe in one pack?):
  1. Large south american monkey (Howler/Spider...)
  2. Baboon (any)
  3. Small south american monkey (Tamarin/Marmoset...)
  4. Indian monkey
  5. African arboreal monkey
  6. Nocturnal primate (Aye-aye/night monkey/Galago/Loris)
  7. Rare monkey slot
And only after that more niche species or species covering ground similar to what we already have.

Nocturnal primate is a good one!
Im currently building a nocturnal house for the building challenge and i found it rather difficult to get a nice roster together. Yeah we have plenty nocturnal animals, but animals you commonly find in real nocturnal houses? There are a couple, but to many actually. You got the fennec, aardvark, binturong and thats kinda already it for the "common" ones.
So im definetly one of those who would love to get a nocturnal house DLC (not as the final pack tho), and yeah we got Twilight which is sort of similar but there are plenty DLCs which have a similar theme to others.

No there's actually much more like the Kiwi, African Crested Porcupine, Clouded Leopard, Common Wombat, European Badger, Fossa but they can be primarily Nocturnal. Giant anteater, Malayan Tapir, Red fox, Red necked wallaby. The list goes on.

They specified species that are commonly found in nocturnal houses in real life, not just those that are nocturnal. All those species are either rare in captivity in certain parts of the world or aren't usually kept in nocturnal houses.

For me, I've never been to a nocturnal house that doesn't have bilbies and hopping mice, so I'm definitely never going to be able to build one that I'm familiar with lol.

Yeah sure, but are all of these commonly kept in nocturnal houses? Because thats what i was refering to, animals you commonly find in real life nocturnal houses. And if anyone can provide me with an example of a rednecked wallaby in a nocturnal house im very impressed
