i can't get over the wolves walking on two feet, they also look more feline than anything like the cats from cats lol
lmao me ether !
Occults are completely worth it. Some of us ONLY play with occults and find family gameplay boring af.
it could be boring without the right gameplay mods !
Here comes something cool: You can do a fun family with occults, can be a same occult family or a chaotic mixed occult family.
It becomes chaotic and fun
I have all occult packs. I use the spellcasters the most because it’s the one I’m most interested in personally, even though they aren’t the most well made.
For me I’d like a refresh (maybe around Halloween) with a couple more playable editable lots in towns that come with the packs since the world count is miserable and there is space in the map, a skill tree for aliens and mermaids, add a hidden secret lot as a mermaid underwater lot that skilled divers can also access, and a better integration of occults with the cats and dogs and cottage living with other animals and better integration with seasons.
i think im going to make my next LP with spell castors or atleast a video ! I never truly played with it !
my question is why are the occults the only gameplay they seem to even try with? werewolves are the best so far and some are lack luster but somehow even the worst occults have more of an attempt than most packs.
FOREAL !! like come on !! :/
I hate how they changed the ghosts from being untamable and scary, literally scaring your sims to death. I loved how when those creepy nights rolled around on my make belief haunted lots, id fear for my sims, never knowing how the night would go. Also i hate how in the sims 4 they can show up anywhere at any time of the day.... I like keeping my normal neighborhoods normal and dedicating a few places to being the haunted locations....... And i really don't like how they made them act like regular humans, it defeats the purpose of calling them ghosts. In the past sims they'd go back to things that they owned like their bed, and become outrages when they see other sims now using their stuff, i loved that they'd just haunt objects, act out their deaths, interact with certain things differently depending on their death, them wondering around the lot and scaring sims the way you'd think of an actual haunted location... Now they're employed as drs and service people, showing up in odd locations like a tropical resort and hanging out in your house fixing and cleaning things and watching tv o.0
malls should come with the new high school pack
OMG that would be so cute ! My LP's would be top tier
YES!!! I was thinking the same thing. That and arcades or something.
Now that they didn't came on that pack, maybe malls could come in a theorical metropolis pack?
Faries can be a really great occult, could have fun interactions with other occults, being able to cure them, be a familiar for the spellcaster, and other fun stuff
Also zombie has a lot of potential because ea owns PvZ and zombie abilities could be based on super-brains,scientist/zomboss and could be hibrid-applicable with mermaids(pink dolphin is replaced by dolphin rider zombie’s zombie dolphin)
I think occult gameplay in general gets treated better than realistic gameplay, look at werewolves compared to wedding stories.
Secondly realistic player don’t get thing they actually requested for years it’s always a unique type version while occult player will generally get the pack they asked for like werewolves, vampires and spellcasters, but where are the hotels, theme parks, (schools), time travel and bands.
We didn’t need a wedding stories pack it should’ve been a update, (along with eco lifestyle). However mermaid we’re done dirty they should of at least had their own secret lot that underwater like aliens do.
I think instead of just a fairy/pixie pack a fairytale pack would be better so you can combined a royalty system, fairies,genies and horse/ unicorns/ Pegasus, carriage’s etc.
Id love to make my own worlds and some other things with normal sims, but then some people ask for weird things and they just happen....The only things ive been wanting is build a world, 2 new age groups, and more body types and simply fixing bugs. But i'm sure sim twitter will request something weird and impulsive that they'll get bored of in 3 months in gameplay that the sims 4 team will happily bring to the game. So i'll still be here dreaming of amazing world building and preteens hanging out with super old 90 year old great grandparents and their neighbor sims with amazingly large hips and huge bellies while everyone else who plays this game celebrate getting stupid robot chickens and tv's covered in stickers >.>
I think werewolves was okay, it could definitely be better but it checked off everything they said it was going to be to it wasn't anything unexpected. Vampires was good but it got boring both the occult and the map (which is one things werewolves have that is better than vampires), mermaids have a lot of things wrong with it and so much stuff can be done for it like more powers and an underwater world or something. Aliens also couldve been expanded. Spellcasters is actually pretty cool and I bought it on impulse thinking it was going to be like Hogwarts where we learn magic at a magic school.. it wasn't but I don't think I regret it.
TBH, a lot of Occults really needs a re-work, specially Aliens, Memairds, Ghosts, Robots and Plantsims. Specially this last one.
-Aliens: They need a proper world, proper NPC, skills and a better CAS
-Mermaids: They lack of a world and skills, they have interesting dinamics, sadly only on sea or depending of their traits, so would be better to gave them a skill tree that works on ground and water than just only on water or rain.
-Ghosts: They need any speciall skill to be fun to play or interesting, they feel like quirky inmortal Sims rather than ghosts.
-Plantsims: They really deserve to be a proper occulta rather than a transformation, their hair is ugly and yada yada, but their need to have sun instead of eating is interesting and they could have a skill tree based on gameplay with plants, flowers, veggies, nature... And maybe use those things to other Sims, but they are just... Ugly Sims (Seriusly, their CAS is horrible and is extremly limited) who can talk to plants and don't need to eat. They could be better
-Robots: I just wanna to have an option to make a robot more humanoid/cybord, I know they are cute looking like a robot, but would be cool If they could look like a human and etc, but they feel like a maid rather than a robot or occult.
As for the functional occults who aren't werewolfes (But TBH, Iw ould loved If they could be werewolfs and werelions xD):
-Vampires: Need more change on their behavious than just sun = DEATH, and their world feels dead, only 4-5 slots and 3 NPC, Wolfes and Spellcaster have more slots, fun places and NPC, they need to expand their world and gave them more vampire behaviour, maybe Wine Drinking or high society things to contrast against Werewolfes-
-Spellcasters: Too much Harry Potter style, we need more witchcraft thing and learn more fast the spells, despite that, I like them, they feel like super humans, but I love them, except that I would loved a more witchy side, is good to see a wizard side than the average witch side, but I would loved to see both.
TBH, I'm these type of players who likes to play with occults or other type pf gameplays because families tends to be boring for me (Except when the newer Highschool and Family pack camed, I would loved to see a pack for elemtary school, then maybe would be more fun variable the family gameplay for me), so I play with occults for drama or other things. But something I fricking love, making occult families, feels like playing the Adam's family and fuses both of those gameplays into a weird and fun gameplay slot.
for werewolves i wholeheartedly agree, we got robbed of others b/c they didn't feel as pressured and got lazy, but werewolves were the last line of defense for their credibility =3='
the tragic thing is, a lot of the time, laziness isn't the result of being lazily made work for the sims dev team. its because they're outsourcing to less skilled workers on countries with lower waged salaries, who could probably use the better education and tools to create content under much more stringent deadlines. then the executives just slap it on the origins store asap for a quick buck knowing people will naively purchase it still. For werewolves pack they probably stressed their workers even further, just this once, to keep their consumers intact
what an ode to capitalism, right? >~> gah, ripperoni wedding stories
I still say they screwed up their design though. Those things don't look polished or wolf like. They're too upright, their head is too small they and didn't try to make them more wolf like, what's with their limbs, and sometimes they even have weird hips.... They look like they only barely stretched certain parts of the normal shim's face and place ears on top of their head and colored a hairy body in...
Hey Yin🙌🏾 honestly my thoughts and opinions on occults is I really do like them, Hot take but I know the sims is a simulation game but playing the sims without anything special is just so lackluster almost every “normal pack” Ive been bored with and stopped playing with after a day or 2 but I seriously am obsessed with werewolves lol. Like the chokehold werewolves has on m is insane. I got it last week Thursday and ever since then every single day have played for like 5,6+ hours straight Im about to finish it tonight. Theres just so much to do in my opinion plus everything is so customizable. You can go whatever route theres 5 aspirations you can pick and choose theres the packs where you can work your way up. Just a blast
definitely going to try to get into it !!
I generally don't care for occults, but i do make exceptions for things like ghosts and vampires, maybe werewolves and magic people if they're done right. I like my sim ghosts being scary and haunting, i like vampires being creepy and mysterious, i like magical people being more old school and as for werewolves, they better be savage and primal and looking like hybrid beasts. I've never cared for the idea of playing with aliens in the sims, i just never liked or was interested in them in any sims game, i don't care about mermaids or fairies, and i downright hate the plant sims. Id give plant sims a chance if they could live in a their own natural earthy worlds, but i can't get emersed in them if they live in regular suburban neighborhoods and i don't like the way they look.
as someone who plays on console so has no access to cc or mods, i think occults add so much more interesting gameplay, atm i only have werewolves but i wanna buy vampires real soon (a part of me wants to make the tvd cast lol)
I have 0 occult packs. They just don't interest me. I do have both Island Living and Jungle Adventure, but not for the mermaids or the skeletons. I'd like to see more immerive game play that deals with "regular" sims. Your mall idea fits right in. Hotels, apartment buildings with more than 1 or 2 per lot. Trailer courts. Tennis courts. More stuff to do!
Nah I believe it’s the price we have to pay in order to enjoy the hype sadly like I understand they need money for content but sheesh give us a discount on them at least man bad enough we gotta deal with inflation 😢
I don’t like occults I don’t have any of those game packs I just want bands and hotels and be able to have multi functional lots like a restaurant and a retail store together and be able to build my apartment/town homes and be able to play sports I just want more things for my sims to do
the fact that we still don't have hotels !!
Actually through mods you can have hybrid of occults
I only have island living. I didn’t even realize I let my sims marry a mermaid lol they have nothing to bring to the table really. So I didn’t bother with the other occults. I may try spellcaster idk.
I would love if they make fairies, and I would love to have Hybrids, you know like vampire & werewolves if you put them together it’ll be so cool if you could be both, that’s what hybrids are and Also be a Spellcaster and vampire if you put them together that’s another hybrid if you put them together that would be so cool that what’s Hybrid are
I wish they didn’t do plant sims dirty, they use to be so cool and cutie in the previous Sims games 😭
They could have do alot of crazy things with theses I just wish they went for it instead of playing it safe I guess thats what we get since EA cant make up there mind on is this game for teens up or for all ages.
