designating other sims to take care of their pets and children after they die is HUGE. the number of times I've had a sim die and their pets just get deleted it so depressing.
My sim has a never aging sister in her family tree who doesn't exist anymore because their parents passed while she was still a child living with them 😭
that should have been base game.. like in sims2 pets and children are put into adoption (u can get them back with another household). and sims4 is only fixing this now?
REINCARNATION!!!!! I thought that was what it was. The baby that appears in a puff of golden light at the end of the trailer was the old man being reborn, rebirthed. It's tied somehow to the the golden light that leaves his mouth when he dies.
That head statue carved in the cliff is actually real, in my country, in Romania between the Danube and carpathian mountains and that person is named Decebal. I am so happy for this!!!
Yes, you're right. I saw the statue and I thought of the statue of Decebal. It is actually pretty cute. And the name in the will Dragoste, maybe it was a hint to this statue, because I do not see any resemblance to Romania other than that. But I also saw a castle uphill and I am wondering.
@@fefefefe957 The town itself also reminded me a lot of Braşov. This is the first time I've seen any romanian representation in the sims, so I'm pretty much in awe.
We really need an Occult overhaul - mermaids & aliens especially - those poor bastards don't even have a power tree & the only Occult with a bloodline is Werewolves & Spellcasters
@@Gingergent07 this may be true but it really should be something they add even if it is a pack I mean honestly with this pack I think they could even throw in vampires can kill or has a chance of doing so from drinking deeply -- really they could give all the occults small updates to go with with this pack
I have a Sim just like this for about 6 or 5 years now. She runs an occultism shop and did crystal ball readings in her house. Of course it was all pretend since we didn't have that gameplay before.
I'm stoked about graveyard lots. I am super interested in the mortician and funeral director careers. Funerals like you said gives me apprehension cause of my wedding stories
The nothing matters in simlish song really tied the trailer together. If people haven’t watched the trailer themselves or heard nothing matters by the last dinner party, go do 🖤
I saw some people being upset about not getting zombies in this pack, but I'm actually glad about it and would prefer they continue to add occults in game packs from here on out. EP occults are just awful and lack depth because the resources were used for other "main feature" things. The new world kinda looks like a mix of Windenburg and Henford on Bagley, but the 'netherworld' actually looks super cool and I'm loving the macabre styled items. I, too, am worried about funerals functioning the same way MWS did, and so I'm kinda already expecting them not to work. I'm expecting sims not showing up in the correct attire, doing pushups/dancing next to the coffin, I'm even expecting the dead Sim to glitch out of the coffin if there's an option for open casket funerals. If not, I'm guessing the casket is a closed object that's empty but just says the deceased Sim is in there. Hopefully there will be more in-depth info with the gameplay trailer.
Maybe they won't _add_ a new occult, but I'm hoping they touch up an old one, Grim at the end of the trailer said something about mastering "ghostly abilities" 🤔
I was one of those who actually was disappointed for not having zombies in this. I was hoping we could make one by being bad at reaping just like when you gave little money to the necromancer in the previous games and they brought the sim back in a zombie form. But thinking about it I would rather have zombies with their own pack so they could be better even though I'm not really sure how they could do it. Could be a new pack about occult with necromancer, fortune tellers or something in this line. Or something about an apocalypse where we could get a specific world like strangerville with zombies sims where we would scavenge for itens and such. I kind of like the update for ghosts and they make more sense with the style their going for in this pack. I just wanted it to be a little darker toned like the vampire pack and not so ordinary. I didn't like the new world too much, it looks so similar to the one that came in the farming pack already.
As a tarot girlie, I commented this a few hours ago (referring to the 3 tarot cards they sent out to some simmers): I feel like this is going to be an afterlife pack. The death tarot card is usually interpreted, as you said, metamorphosis. For example, if someone pulls a death card, it doesn't mean they're gonna die, it might mean that something in their life is gonna end, maybe a bad habit, it is actually a positive card. The major arcana cards (all of these 3 cards are major arcana) are numbered and have a specific order representing the "hero's journey". The death card is somewhere in the middle of this order, so the hero is in the middle of his journey, definitely not the end. It's more like a breaking point for the hero, a rebirth I'd say and there's still half the journey left. The fact that there is a "soul's journey" in this pack is absolutely mind blowing for me and I am so excited. If the goals correspond to the major arcana cards I am literally going cry, that is literally my dream pack
Honestly this is the first time in forever that I'm genuinely excited for a new Pack and considering to buy it as soon as it comes out. I just hope the funerals aren't as broken as the weddings...if everyone just ignores the casket because a celebrity walked in or some shit I will lose my mind
This has me curious what little thing they're going to add to the basegame ahead of this pack. Because I'm pretty sure every expansion and most of the game packs added a little something to the game in advance as "prep" for the new release.
I'd be happy with dying of old age in bed in the base game, always found stupid that my Sims wake up to go have their heart attack on the ground. Maybe also woohoowing with ghosts (and maybe Grim ?)
@@Applezauxe definitely not reincarnation. I would say mist of the ghost overhaul will be base game and maaaaybe the ability to host funerals, except they will be severely lacking
1:01 Eulogies came in City Living. Have an urn in your Sims inventory & charisma level 6. Then use the podium to give a Eulogy. It's been in the game for 5 years.
I hope they connect this expansion pack with the Paranormal pack. This would fit perfectly with the Paranormal Investigator or even with the Spell-casters
Some of these features do look interesting, but you can already build graveyards, woohoo ghosts, and play as a ghost already in the base game. If you have a high enough relationship with a ghost, you can invite them to join your house and take control from there, doing things like haunting and breaking items. And, though graveyards don't have an official lot trait, I always build one in one of the worlds, with the different households I play having their own section. You can visit and summon the ghosts, mourn and leave skull offerings so the ghosts don't wreck everything in your house. Plus, it helps with remembering the lineage of some families. All that to say, I hope it's much more and much better than the "expansion" that was Lovestruck.
NGL the idea of funerals and bucket lists do intrigue me. Have to see some gameplay and more info before I decide if I will preorder or wait for a sale.
This actually looks sick, I might even buy it at full price. I loveeeee the vibe I’m already full of ideas. The club feature and the nightly festival is making me want to start a cult
I hope they bring back Mortimer's parents and they have all the lore dead Goths in their back gave yard. Also they could make Agnes Cornelia's sister if you have the Henford pack
Ill save you the trouble : they will not do that and if they will, we will end up with Johnny Zest situation where he is a disowned landgraab but has no relations and doesn't even know the landgraabs
I'm oddly excited about this (but I'll wait for the gameplay trailer) I do wonder how it will go with the Paranormal Pack, I did notice when my paranormal sim spoke to grim reaper there was an option for hin to hire her, I don't remember that being an option before. He said there were no job openings btw
That's actually a thing called a Celebration of Life. So my grandpop was reliant on life support and chose the day he wanted to be unplugged. His will stipulated that we had to have a party for him after he died called a Celebration of Life. It explicitly stated that we had to roast a pig on a spit in the front yard of his house, it had to be in the theme of a Hawaiian luau & we had to put a posting in the town newspaper inviting every single person in town. Grandpop was a weird one. Population of my hometown is about 3000 people & about 500 showed up over the course of the day. It was December. In Wisconsin. Most people showed up wearing Christmas sweaters ffs. Wev had to get the county sheriff to let us do a firework display. After the party was completed the executor then opened a second envelope at the friggin party that allowed us to know what we "won" as a "prize". All of his descendants who attended received $2,000. The rest of the money was donated to the town church.
@@fefefefe957yep my dad was part of the legion corps that did 21 gun salutes. Five guys shooting four times or four guys shooting five times and then the cannon at the end.
Same was for cottage living and horse ranch. Also the same goes for the upcomming beach pack (we got Sulani), the abandoned world pack (we got Strangerville) and the cyberpunk world (could've included this with get to work since the alien clothes give me sci-fi vibes)
I'm gonna be that person. Tarot cards - could've been in Paranormal pack Ghost refresh - could've been base game update or in Paranormal pack Graveyards - should've been base game New careers - could've been Paranormal/Get to work Funerals and dying in bed - could've been base game update So we're really getting an expensive update with some new CAS and build/buy items. I'm worried about the gameplay mechanics too. I'm annoyed that basically every occult now gets its own pack instead of having them all in one (like Sims 3 Supernatural), but admittedly there's more to the majority of those occults. So hopefully we'll have something like a skill tree or some more interesting perks and gameplay for ghosts? I want to love what I'm seeing but I really hope it'll be worth the money.
I’ve never really understood this take. Literally anything you (not you specifically OP because I hear this argument so often) could think of coulda shoulda woulda been included in the game from the beginning, but then it would’ve been more glitchy or taken longer to have been released or been much more expensive or been missing another feature that was included that we all actually liked. Personally, I prefer to deal with reality, rather than hypotheticals
@@lauren_sunshine The sims isn't costly to make. Zero customization and optimization when to comes to CAS and build mode. Worlds are basic af and the game lacks proper world building. It has little to no interactivity between sims and their environment. Who do people have to pay 40$ for a pack that is bland (almost all of them are).
@lauren_sunshine This take exists because past versions of the game worked this way. This take is calling out how 4 deliberately chops up expansion packs into as many separate packs as possible to milk more money out of players. In 3, we had one pack that combined My Wedding Stories, High School Years, Kids and Toddler Stuff, Parenthood, and Growing Together. Yes, each of those packs adds a couple more things 3 didn't have, but that honestly does not justify it when you consider how much is still missing. Why are Parenthood and Growing Together two separate packs? It's money grubbing, and old school simmers are sick of the nickle and diming.
@@tiph3802 And it all gets even more depressing considering they've decided to just keep milking 4 forever instead of starting anew with 5 having learned from past mistakes, as slim as that hope was to begin with.
Dude, I so don't want to buy packs without a sale, but HOW CAN I NOT!? I haven't been this hyped about a pack since cats and dogs, I'm not kidding. Grim Reaper career. LET ME REPEATE! GRIM REAPER CAREER!!!! And graveyards!? and birds.
the rebirth thing sounds like some kind of reincarnation, you'll become a new sim with your old sims skills ect and presumably friendships or more likely a knew in a past life relationship tag.
Love this video- also children can already die in this game (my child sim froze to death after not putting on their warm clothes even though I TOLD THEM TO SO MANY TIMES)
Great missed opportunity for a *therapist career* even if not active would be great. It could branch out as traditional therapy and non traditional one (regressions, psychodrama, EMDR…).
You can already play as a ghost, and you can possess items, break stuff by doing it, and do Ghostly repair to fix some things like broken sinks or toilets, but it looks like this pack will give ghosts more to do as an optional occult type and CAS usage, so does that mean you'll be able to make ghosts in CAS without having to use a death cheat or ghost trait in cheats menu to add a ghost to your world? maybe, we'll have to see when the pack comes out, I wonder if ghosts will still need to eat and poop like they currently do.
😅eulogies existed since the podium ? City living maybe ?and woohoo with ghost isn't new either i think theres an acheimwnt for it . I've played as a ghost as well and i don't use mods
I'll have to say honestly that I don't think this is just bringing back features we had in Sims 3. A lot of this seems genuinely new (the bucket list, funerals, working for Grim) or potential much more fleshed out than it was in prior games (ghostly powers, graveyards, tarot). Also I don't think we've ever had an Eastern European world before? Idk, I'm into it.
1:20 kids have been able to die for a while now. Just not toddlers or lower. 1:23 youve been able to woohoo with ghosts. You even get an achievement called "What would it be like?" On PS I am excited though! I hope they bring back romancing the grim reaper.
@@Thalia_Ravenclaw they could've added it into basegame since we already have ghosts and deaths there, but it's obvious EA wants the money for selling it separately in an EP. The same way they sold seasons, a Sims 3 basegame feature, to us sims 4 players, because they don't see us as nothing more than cash cows.
The Sims 3 was the bomb! It had so many wonderful features and didn't shy away from adding at least walking sticks to the game and sims could actually kill each other with magic etc. If only it ran smoother, I would never have moved on. Might go back... You could even make your own worlds and customise premade ones soooo much! Plus it had a aesthetic IMO. Even the original The Sims had awesome things that The Sims 4 could have used and just upgraded for the technology with have.
Children have been able to die. I've seen some of my sim kiddos freeze to death by floating on floaters in the pool especially. This pack looks so exciting! Still want cars, but this is cool!
Girl what are you talking about woohooing ghost was already in the game and giving a eulogy came with city living? You can use the podium to do that. Playable ghost that you can costumize where also already a thing??
Well ghost are not the greatest to be pretty honest . If your sim dies, you have to find the ghost, and they don't even remember you. I am glad ghost are getting more things to do.
You knew that sims children could die right? I've unalived multiple sims. One was wearing summer clothes in the winter time in a public park. I once had a tired sim drown in the pool after a long day at school. I begged the reaper to spare her and he did, but once revived she was "whisked away to safety". Her twin was devastated. I'm happy about the reincarnation but it feels recycled from the "life dreams and legacies" feature that has existed in Sims Freeplay (mobile game) for something like 8 years now.
Also also, they heavily implied this expansion pack was meant to build upon legacy play, but currently having too many generations or too many ghosts breaks the game. They better have a huge fix for that incoming.
You can already play as a ghost, it’s just hard. (I’m sure you know that, I’m just being overly literal.) You have to either: 1. Hang out by the tombstone for two days waiting for them to spawn and then invite them to join your household. (Or, as a spellcaster, Necrocall.) 2. Cheat. Summon the ghost (I use MCCC extended debug cheats on the mailbox) and shift-click to add to household. 3. Or you can download one from the gallery. At the moment, they don’t have a lot of powers: haunt to break, ghostly repair, and perhaps an ability related to how they died. (Death by fire: set fires when angry.) It’s, alas, not particularly in depth. I’m really looking forward to seeing new ghost powers! And yes, you can woohoo with a ghost.
Oh also: Aside from romance (still haven’t picked up LS; was happy with my existing mods), this is the most heavily modded part of my game. I have a funeral mod, a graveyard mod, etc. I’ve really gone all out on making a pretty graveyard for my Sims. (Does Meaningful Stores and Bienchen’s small death overhaul count? I hate that you mourn the guy you bought coffee from once as hard as your spouse: two days. Ugh.)
2:50 reincarnation maybe? I'm thinking this probably means that the traits and possibly skills will pass on to another sim after they die. Like you get the option to start life again- maybe as a baby- the second they die in a pop up window or something.
The Grim mentions something in the end that hints the man has unfinished business, and with the baby at the end and the letters saying to be continued, both things hint of reincarnation. The baby is also dressed very similar to the style of man who died. I do think that will happen. But let's see. 🤞🏻
I’m so incredibly excited about this pack, having graveyards/funerals, a grave caretaker, and grim reaper career, a different death, more fleshed out ghosts!! I can’t wait for this pack, I’m going to hold off on buying it for a bit but I’m looking forward to watching others play before I make my decision!
read the info on the EA app!! there is so much more to it :3 i love the thing they added with the ability to get reincarnated after dying if you choose to finish up unfinished business
I think the Grim Reaper spoke English because he's an interdimensonal being and he speaks all languages: when he talks to sims he speaks simlish because that's their language, but at the end of this trailer he spoke english because he was talking to us
designating other sims to take care of their pets and children after they die is HUGE. the number of times I've had a sim die and their pets just get deleted it so depressing.
My sim has a never aging sister in her family tree who doesn't exist anymore because their parents passed while she was still a child living with them 😭

@@robertgronewold3326 like the hecata would care for camarilla hierarchy lol
When we got birds in a death pack, but not in a pets/animal pack. ☠️
Same was for cottage living and horse ranch. Also the same goes for the upcomming beach pack (we got Sulani), the abandoned world pack (we got Strangerville) and the cyberpunk world (could've included this with get to work since the alien clothes give me sci-fi vibes)
Can't wait to watch you play this pack since my pc is no longer capable of running the game. *cries in broke*
I never let my Sims die because i turn aging off but now i kinda wanna play around with it lol
I'm gonna be that person.
Tarot cards - could've been in Paranormal pack
Ghost refresh - could've been base game update or in Paranormal pack
Graveyards - should've been base game
New careers - could've been Paranormal/Get to work
Funerals and dying in bed - could've been base game update
So we're really getting an expensive update with some new CAS and build/buy items.
I'm worried about the gameplay mechanics too. I'm annoyed that basically every occult now gets its own pack instead of having them all in one (like Sims 3 Supernatural), but admittedly there's more to the majority of those occults. So hopefully we'll have something like a skill tree or some more interesting perks and gameplay for ghosts?
I want to love what I'm seeing but I really hope it'll be worth the money.
Nothing TS4 related worth any money tbh
I’ve never really understood this take. Literally anything you (not you specifically OP because I hear this argument so often) could think of coulda shoulda woulda been included in the game from the beginning, but then it would’ve been more glitchy or taken longer to have been released or been much more expensive or been missing another feature that was included that we all actually liked. Personally, I prefer to deal with reality, rather than hypotheticals
@@lauren_sunshine The sims isn't costly to make. Zero customization and optimization when to comes to CAS and build mode. Worlds are basic af and the game lacks proper world building. It has little to no interactivity between sims and their environment. Who do people have to pay 40$ for a pack that is bland (almost all of them are).
@lauren_sunshine This take exists because past versions of the game worked this way. This take is calling out how 4 deliberately chops up expansion packs into as many separate packs as possible to milk more money out of players. In 3, we had one pack that combined My Wedding Stories, High School Years, Kids and Toddler Stuff, Parenthood, and Growing Together. Yes, each of those packs adds a couple more things 3 didn't have, but that honestly does not justify it when you consider how much is still missing. Why are Parenthood and Growing Together two separate packs? It's money grubbing, and old school simmers are sick of the nickle and diming.
@@tiph3802 And it all gets even more depressing considering they've decided to just keep milking 4 forever instead of starting anew with 5 having learned from past mistakes, as slim as that hope was to begin with.
Why do I feel the funeral will work as well as the My Wedding Stories.
Dude, I so don't want to buy packs without a sale, but HOW CAN I NOT!? I haven't been this hyped about a pack since cats and dogs, I'm not kidding. Grim Reaper career. LET ME REPEATE! GRIM REAPER CAREER!!!! And graveyards!? and birds.
Thanks FGG for always being my source to be updated. This pack looks awesome I'm hyped
the rebirth thing sounds like some kind of reincarnation, you'll become a new sim with your old sims skills ect and presumably friendships or more likely a knew in a past life relationship tag.
Love this video- also children can already die in this game (my child sim froze to death after not putting on their warm clothes even though I TOLD THEM TO SO MANY TIMES)
The Undertaker Career is a "classic career" = rabbit hole career. The playable active career is the Reaper Profession.
Great missed opportunity for a *therapist career* even if not active would be great.
It could branch out as traditional therapy and non traditional one (regressions, psychodrama, EMDR…).
Maybe updating the doctor-carrier from get to work?
You can already play as a ghost, and you can possess items, break stuff by doing it, and do Ghostly repair to fix some things like broken sinks or toilets, but it looks like this pack will give ghosts more to do as an optional occult type and CAS usage, so does that mean you'll be able to make ghosts in CAS without having to use a death cheat or ghost trait in cheats menu to add a ghost to your world? maybe, we'll have to see when the pack comes out, I wonder if ghosts will still need to eat and poop like they currently do.
I think this might be the second pack I ever buy at full price (werewolves was the first and I don’t regret it), tbh kinda excited
You can already play with ghosts and woohoo them tho
but they're just normal sims that happen to be translucent, tbh I wish they were an occult
@@spicysalad3013 yeah I agree, if they gave them more power it would be cool
@@luckyduchesse8924they are given them more power in the pack
😅eulogies existed since the podium ? City living maybe ?and woohoo with ghost isn't new either i think theres an acheimwnt for it . I've played as a ghost as well and i don't use mods
GHOST REFRESH!!!! My occult loving self is so hyped ngl
I'll have to say honestly that I don't think this is just bringing back features we had in Sims 3. A lot of this seems genuinely new (the bucket list, funerals, working for Grim) or potential much more fleshed out than it was in prior games (ghostly powers, graveyards, tarot). Also I don't think we've ever had an Eastern European world before?
Idk, I'm into it.
1:20 kids have been able to die for a while now. Just not toddlers or lower. 1:23 youve been able to woohoo with ghosts. You even get an achievement called "What would it be like?" On PS
I am excited though! I hope they bring back romancing the grim reaper.
I actually love this??? Ive has a mortician sim mod that has never worked so I’m excited to have this.
I'm excited to fulfil my spooky life with this pack.
"Did the Grim Reaper just flashed her?" 😂😂
I've never been so hyped for a pack. My jaw dropped when they mentioned embalming. I know it's most likely a rabbithole career but that's so cool.
0:27 no no. Azura from Barbie and the fairies!
barbie fairytopia was my ish as a kid.
WE ARE GETTING REINCARNATION IN THE SIMS NOW??????????????????? HOLY SHIT NOW THAT'S SOMETHING I DID NOT EXPECT
They could've added this when we got the paranormal pack since we got the Chance to talk with the other side
@@Thalia_Ravenclaw they could've added it into basegame since we already have ghosts and deaths there, but it's obvious EA wants the money for selling it separately in an EP. The same way they sold seasons, a Sims 3 basegame feature, to us sims 4 players, because they don't see us as nothing more than cash cows.
@@katerinakralova7292 I haven't sims 3 really (only on DS and Wii) so I can't really say something about it.
Finally, the goth pack i really wanted
2:16 wasn’t ravenwood some gossip girl or pll spin off show?
It was the PLL spin off where they dumped Caleb lmao
Yes that's what I thought of too, ravenwood is like Caleb's spinoff and everything that happened while he was in ravenwood
Did somebody notice the blue paranormal ghost in the background of the tarot reading?
The Sims 3 was the bomb! It had so many wonderful features and didn't shy away from adding at least walking sticks to the game and sims could actually kill each other with magic etc. If only it ran smoother, I would never have moved on. Might go back... You could even make your own worlds and customise premade ones soooo much! Plus it had a aesthetic IMO. Even the original The Sims had awesome things that The Sims 4 could have used and just upgraded for the technology with have.
Children have been able to die. I've seen some of my sim kiddos freeze to death by floating on floaters in the pool especially. This pack looks so exciting! Still want cars, but this is cool!
Tbh I'm quite excited for this :0
Girl what are you talking about woohooing ghost was already in the game and giving a eulogy came with city living? You can use the podium to do that. Playable ghost that you can costumize where also already a thing??
Well ghost are not the greatest to be pretty honest . If your sim dies, you have to find the ghost, and they don't even remember you. I am glad ghost are getting more things to do.
You knew that sims children could die right? I've unalived multiple sims. One was wearing summer clothes in the winter time in a public park. I once had a tired sim drown in the pool after a long day at school. I begged the reaper to spare her and he did, but once revived she was "whisked away to safety". Her twin was devastated.
I'm happy about the reincarnation but it feels recycled from the "life dreams and legacies" feature that has existed in Sims Freeplay (mobile game) for something like 8 years now.
My desire to pirate more packs vs. my game that already struggles to run
We can already woohoo with ghost in base game tho and i found out because my husband died in a fire and he was still able to woohoo 😭
Also also, they heavily implied this expansion pack was meant to build upon legacy play, but currently having too many generations or too many ghosts breaks the game. They better have a huge fix for that incoming.
i just hope that funeral will be less buggy than weddings xD
If we can't romance the Grim Reaper in this pack I will cry
Top of my list is those big 20L buckets. It's a seat. It's a drum. It can carry stuff.
Ok like.... I'm kinda looking forward to this one
You can already play as a ghost, it’s just hard. (I’m sure you know that, I’m just being overly literal.) You have to either:
1. Hang out by the tombstone for two days waiting for them to spawn and then invite them to join your household. (Or, as a spellcaster, Necrocall.)
2. Cheat. Summon the ghost (I use MCCC extended debug cheats on the mailbox) and shift-click to add to household.
3. Or you can download one from the gallery.
At the moment, they don’t have a lot of powers: haunt to break, ghostly repair, and perhaps an ability related to how they died. (Death by fire: set fires when angry.) It’s, alas, not particularly in depth. I’m really looking forward to seeing new ghost powers!
And yes, you can woohoo with a ghost.
Oh also:
Aside from romance (still haven’t picked up LS; was happy with my existing mods), this is the most heavily modded part of my game. I have a funeral mod, a graveyard mod, etc. I’ve really gone all out on making a pretty graveyard for my Sims. (Does Meaningful Stores and Bienchen’s small death overhaul count? I hate that you mourn the guy you bought coffee from once as hard as your spouse: two days. Ugh.)
I cant stop crying. I never cry over a pack. I am excited!!
Loving it and it's going to be released in my birthday so it's my present
You can play as a ghost in a haunted residential and haunt your own house 😆
This is the first time in FOREVER that I've looked forward to a new pack
2:50 reincarnation maybe? I'm thinking this probably means that the traits and possibly skills will pass on to another sim after they die. Like you get the option to start life again- maybe as a baby- the second they die in a pop up window or something.
I've never been excited for an expansion pack like I am with this
THIS WOULD BE A PERFECT PACK TO GIVE US OLIVE SPECTOR
The actual trailer was so good, with a great song choice
Rebirth is probably optional bcz it was like that with the door of life and death from the store
The Grim mentions something in the end that hints the man has unfinished business, and with the baby at the end and the letters saying to be continued, both things hint of reincarnation. The baby is also dressed very similar to the style of man who died. I do think that will happen. But let's see. 🤞🏻
I’m so incredibly excited about this pack, having graveyards/funerals, a grave caretaker, and grim reaper career, a different death, more fleshed out ghosts!! I can’t wait for this pack, I’m going to hold off on buying it for a bit but I’m looking forward to watching others play before I make my decision!
read the info on the EA app!! there is so much more to it :3 i love the thing they added with the ability to get reincarnated after dying if you choose to finish up unfinished business
i miss when your outro used to say subcribe❤
Oh no an expansion I actually want for once.
im actually looking foward to this
while I have yet to buy the latest Love pack this one genuinely excites me. I want to gravedig.
they fixed my wedding stories for this pack
Im so excited for this dlc i bought the game a few months back explicity to have an immortal sim who is best friends with the reaper
I think the Grim Reaper spoke English because he's an interdimensonal being and he speaks all languages: when he talks to sims he speaks simlish because that's their language, but at the end of this trailer he spoke english because he was talking to us
why is this so hype wtf?? my little goth heart loves this, and i havent been so excited for something in ages (im still mad at eaxis tho haha)
you are only one who mentioned Wendsday dance, i thought i was insane
It looks good. Hopefully ghosts will do more than just tear up the house now.
