    I feel like personality and type of death should dictate ghosts needs and they should be unfillable. Like somebody being eternally hungry but unable to get full

    From the description, your sim will be excited rather than scared from the lot challenge. As in, whenever your sim gets a scared moodlet, it will get a stronger energized moodlet to override it. The only thing your sims encountered that gave them a scared mood buff was the ghosts, so that is the only time you saw it. But I bet thunderstorms, rampaging werewolves, earthquakes, haunted houses, anything that gives sims a scared moodlet would also trigger the energized (excited) mood buff.

    • @madplumbs
      @madplumbs  4 дня назад +2

      They did get scared by a thunderstorm I just took that part out. No moodlet showed when it was happening 🤷🏻‍♀️ I didn’t get to test werewolves but you’d have to have a werewolf in your family in order for them to be there when they rampage, or have a party on the full moon lol I will check out haunted houses! I just think it’s a shame that it needs more packs to work if that’s the case considering it’s a base game reward. My gut feeling is it’s going to work really well with the new pack, have a feeling they’ll add graveyards to the game and it’ll be good for that ❤️

      @@madplumbs I agree with you and its also ashame that the description is fairly vague... like they will get energized or playful... excited sounded for me as ''playful'' instead of energized to be honest. I would have loved it better as ''playful'' since you could try to kill sims having them scared to death = hysterical... they wont die from being energized... its kind of boring lol but its free I guess... I dont see the point of adding this to the game though, I really dont see the appeal.

  • @Dragon72801
    @Dragon72801 4 дня назад +3

    I think the trait is working as it should. Sims that live in the house with the Seeker Scare trait are sims that don't mind being scared or are looking to be scared. But you have to have something going on to scare them for it to show. Try using the mischief scare on one of the sims. Try coupling that trait with Haunted house lot trait.

    • @madplumbs
      @madplumbs  3 дня назад +2

    Had no idea it was a challenge trait. If it was a normal trait, it would make more sense. This would make living with supernats less frightful IG
    I agree with ghosts needing a revamp. Watching Grandma gobble down a fruit and yogurt parfait only to totally destroy a toilet (no possess) is disturbing. Like why? My ghost household members were afraid of death and ghosts. Like, girl you can't get any deader and your really scared of your soulmate?

    • @madplumbs
      @madplumbs  5 дней назад +2

      Yeah I think it would’ve been better off as a trait for your sim, even if it was a reward trait or something. It just doesn’t do enough!
      I’m hoping with life and death the ghosts get a lot more love!

    I found that, when you have visitors on your lot. They give you gifts for the scares. Your sim will get bored if they don't get scared. So brave trait is bad for that trait on the lot. Got a lot of skill books, expensive toys specially when the goths show up.

    I don't know if it was from this, but when I first tried it I had a couple of pop-ups saying "thank you for the thrill. Here's a gift." And I got a cherry in my inventory one time, and something else the other. It was while I was doing the reapers challenges, so I might be confusing it with that.

    The thing is even without the lot challenge trait, sims will get scared by ghosts I think? The way I read it is like if something scare them they will get excited, perhaps playful. but thats not what we see at all... I did not notice but did their human needs decay faster when they had the scared moodlet?

      If you have paranormal it comes with the haunted house lot but it’s little specters that come and visit, and you get spooky dolls that pop up. I think the lot type that’ll come with life and death will be graveyards!

      @madplumbs if ghosts are needed then the trait doesn't do anything. Sims can be scared of ghosts anyway. This just slaps an energized mood over the scared one. Sims team coulda done better with it. Thanks for covering it though. Cause I googled and got no info other than your video.
