Glad you like the lots! If you need to fix them though, I won't be offended haha Also - you were totally right about Rory and Lily's rooms at the house! I'm glad that came across
Fantastic builds, I agree with Lilsimsie, they all fit in so seamlessly with the world. The most Ive really done to them is more landscaping (because who wouldnt!?) and swapping some base game stuff for other packs. Such a great idea to use the mysterious tunnels as part of the builds....its inspired me to build down into the 'sewers and tunnels' too!
I don’t like werewolves, but I am having so much fun with this pack, and this world. I made a werewolf sim just to try it out, and she almost immediately ended up pregnant with twins by Kristopher and outgrew her trailer 🤦🏼♀️ so now I’m working on an old firehouse turned “wolf’s den” so she can hide her babies from the other pack lol. Sooo, definitely not my usual gameplay, but I’m having fun with it 😂 Also, the werewolf babies make puppy noises, and it is easily the best thing about this pack 😂
I’m deeply disappointed by the lot count. There’s more than enough space for them to have made the top of the hill a lot (and make a proper astronomy tower with a nightclub underground for example), a small residential lot close to Greg with maybe a bad lot trait, and one or two more in the centre of the town. With 5 miserable lots it always feels super unpopulated and you have to cut the immersion to go to other worlds for community lots.
unlike the god-awful wedding pack, this pack has a strong world, gameplay, build-buy, AND CAS. LIKE HOW??! this is such a step-up from other packs, if the sims team put this much passion into the other packs like this, the dlc for this game would be so much better. OMG TYSM GUYS FOR THE LIKES!!! :D i have never gotten this many likes on a video before 😭
I just hope it doesnt end up like paranormal where they give this one absolutely amazing pack and just fully gives up on the category entirely, focusing on kits instead.
apparently its bc the wedding pack was still an EA controlled pack and this was the first one that had the sim gurus really in control! which is depressing bc wow u can really tell when a company doesn't care for its buyers vs people who are actually passionate about what they're doing but I do really hop the gurus continue to have more control over next releases bc u can tell how much they want to give when they're allowed the opportunity to do so :'>
7:57 rory is listed as his daughter!!! I know it's a small thing to get excited about but I'm still annoyed that Johnny Zest is not related to the Landgrabs in game, but the lore says he is - hopefully they will patch that
idk why but when I see glimmer Brook it reminds me of those realllllllyyyy bright sims 4 shaders people use. ya know the ones? it makes everything eyebleeding to look at.
@@maxonite I think it's the best time to buy a sims 4 pack if you can, it's a way to show them "hey this is what we wanted". Better than buying the horrible ones
James popped off. It was actually genius to just get one creator who is obviously really good at this style to build such a consistent world. Also the lore is everything. I’m actually going buy this pack. If they keep adding details like this I’m going to keep buying I’m so excited for the future of the sims
So I watch your videos all the time and today was a fantastic day. My little one came in and asked to watch “the pretty lady playing the people game”. My daughter is on the autism spectrum and not overly verbal unless she really loves something, so hope you feel loved 🥰
@@dddanielaaa Its basically means a backstory sort of. For example the lore between vampires and werewolves is that they despise each other because it's some sort of backstory between both species.
For real I tried to not look into the lore before playing and when my werewolf met a vampire for the first time and instantly despised him I was so excited to see it. That kind of thing make the world feel so much alive (they're married now and have three kids cause of course)
As someone who lives in country woodland small towns this world makes my heart soar. Especially the swimable lake, makes me think of good times when I was young. Absolutely love the world!
Fun fact: "volk" (волк) means "wolf" in Russian, and "Volkov" is a common russian last name (just like "Wolf" last name in English). Cute they added a household of werewolves under the family name "Wolf" :)
It also means "(a) people" in Dutch. As in a group of people belonging somewhere, mostly used for referring to the people of a nation, but can also be used for just a community of people. Which fits the wholesome werewolf pack & the leader taking in other wolves for a sense of belonging. They probably just meant to refer to the Russian word but I like the (probably accidental) double meaning! :)
I was insanely nervous with this pack coming out especially with the wedding pack, but this has absolutely blown me away. The sims are personalities and the world was made with lore in mind. Major props to the sims team. This is absolutely my favorite world. Sure, the lots might be small, but the actual world is MASSIVE! It feels less like a prop.
Honestly the best pack we’ve had in a long time. I’d say I am as stoked about this pack as I was about Cottage Living, and that pack was something I had wanted since Sims 2. I’m not even super into occult sims but this pack is just so so good.
I was actually looking for a video just like this, I am not interested in Werewolves but LOVE the world! After watch Semaj build before release, I was so curious to see what the final version looked like.
the world is amazing and so is the lore hidden everywhere, like greg eating a bed (i am not kiddin, that's official lore) or the mooncasters pots or the encanto reference (not lore but eh)
Even when I play with spellcasters I normally have them live somewhere else because glimmerbrook is so boring and if I want them to do stuff there I just have them travel to the magic realm cause it’s so much cooler But I love the world in this pack and I could see myself having sims live there even if they aren’t werewolves
I'm also impressed with the world! I think when I say I want open worlds, THIS is what I meant!!!! All of the neighborhoods in one gigantic world area with some functional some nonfunctional lots and houses the exact way they did this already! Do that again!
@@Carolina-rd3gh It’s a game pack, of course they didn’t make it have a bunch of lots. None of the other game packs do. Plus, it was clearly made to be one big area you can run around in so you can talk to your pack members without having to travel to another lot, because that would be super annoying.

Strangerville and even My Wedding Disaster had more lots than this, they are also game packs.
@@Carolina-rd3gh I understand your point, but it would be more immersion breaking to travel to different lots to talk to your pack mates and just generally run around imo. Because you’ll be doing it a lot. While I do agree a lot on the hill would be good, it would mean you can’t instantly travel up there which would feel kind of weird because as I said, it was made to be a free area to run around in and explore so no where else is like that, and there’s even shortcuts everywhere. Also, I meant the supernatural packs, my bad.
I'm totally with you on this. I'd move spellcasters and maybe even vampires into this world. It's just so OPEN. Almost gives Sims 3 open world vibes. I love it. Props to James and the team for this one.
Seeing starter houses that I don't immediately have to change is such a good feeling. They've done way better with this pack then a lot of there pervious ones
I love this pack. So far I’ve made a family of 3 humans. Who moved from the city to start their life in the wild. (As I imagine the homes in MoonMill are pretty cheap and to be begin they weren’t necessarily wealthy) Everyone in town are werewolves except them, and they have to learn to be accepted. It’s a close knit community and eventually I want the daughter to fall in love with a werewolf and have that whole human x werewolf storyline! Such a great pack!!
i imagine this world is somewhere between henford on bagley and granite falls. i always theorize what worlds lead into eachothwr by the scenery and it def looks like granite falls/glimerbrook/henford forests
Absolutely in love with the library! The design and detail is fantastic, and it's perfect for a runaway teen story/challenge - I can't wait to plop my newly turned pups into that empty lot and have them live out of the library.
I really like this new pack! It feels like it would be fun to renovate the full set of lots to suit a mix of supernatural sims. The mysterious tunnels, the large lake and water features, and the nighttime setting make it feel appropriate to spellcasters, mermaids, and vampires to me. Aliens have always felt a little separate from the other supernaturals to me (more sci-fi than fantasy I guess), but with the moon tracking I feel like aliens would fit right in too, and the build items from this pack match the Strangerville style of items really well! Edit: wait. Plants / Pets / Ponds household with a Plant sim, werewolf sim, and mermaid sim. i might do this
I love the lore and the fights between vampire, spellcasters and the werewolves. I like the world. I'm glad it's better than the Wedding stories pack I think they kinda made up for it.
@@lynchn9562 I'm not entirely sure if werewolves can have a physical fight with spellcasters but Greg doesn't like spellcasters so like it's more arguments between them.
This pack seems like it took so much work to make, which is crazy for a game pack! It feels like an expansion pack hahahaha I’m obsessed. They really stepped up their game this time around
when I heard werewolves, I thought that it sounds kinda boring.. but Im actually impressed with everything this pack has! new world, new build/buy, new cas, game play!
This world is absolutely the best one of the smaller gamepack ones so far! I find some of the expansion pack ones more interesting but they obviously have an advantage of being larger and having more objects/lots/sims etc. for how limited they seem to have to make the gamepack worlds this one feels like it has more content than a few of the large ones!
I was thinking of getting this pack just for the world 🤣 I’ve never been super into werewolves, but the town is stunning. I just don’t think I can justify spending $20 when money is tight and the world only has like 5 lots. I just really wish they’d add more lots.
ooooh i love the stories the townies come with. Like you could make the author of the books live in a different world and visit it sometimes and other stuff like that
I think a cosmetology expansion pack would be so cool! Like so much gameplay, build mode, and cas objects would have to come with it! They could put a playable career as a cosmetologist (hairdresser, makeup artist, aesthetician, nail tech, etc.). They could also make a cosmetology school and complete a certain amount of hours. I think the school should be as long as it would take to get through a university year or semester or whatever. The point is that would be so cool and so fun! Maybe they could even make a new world with salons and the school and a sim version of cosmoprof and Sally’s beauty stores!
this is the first occult pack i bought for my game & i love it!! it's been so much fun to play & build in this world. also you referencing dan howell made me giggle :)
Whenever simsie makes videos like this, it always makes me super inspired and almost persuaded to get the pack. Out of all the packs I have, I feel like I’ll enjoy this pack the most! Just seeing this video already makes me absolutely ADMIRE this pack, the details, and the backstory’s. Also, thanks simsie for making awesome videos every singular day, (I’m subscribed)
Small little lore I learned from Tiktok but Lily is actually Caleb’s and Lilith’s (from the Vampire Pack) cousin. They were close until Lilith started getting involved with the “Dark Arts”. It was revealed that Lilith was turned by Vlad and that Caleb was turned by Miss Hell, a Sim featured in the trailer but not in-world. Anyways, Lilly stated that she was already growing apart from her family but was furthered pushed by both of them turning into life states that were considered mortal enemies.
I love that James made the library perfect for people doing rags to riches. Like he set it up to where that could be a place to go if you’re trying to do the challenge
I really love this pack! I don’t play with occults much so I probably won’t use the werewolves much, but they are fun. The main thing I love is the cas, as well as the world. A lot of the build stuff is great too! Overall a great pack!
Just wanted to say… My daughter (she’s 5) absolutely love you and your videos. I couldn’t agree more. She certainly has good taste. Sending you lots of love and only good vibes.
I would like to see an option for adding split lots residential rental w/ retail. Or multiple residential, to build tiny home neighborhoods. Get larger lots w/ options to split up for building communities w/ mix of commercial and residential.
i have a bunch of respect to EA for adding so much detail to this pack! I personally don’t play with occults a lot but after seeing the detail and lore i might invest!!!
This pack and the world is very real big cottage vibes, like a family of werewolves that live in a cottage and have like a farm but like in that farm world whatever it’s called I don’t know! Now i wonder if you have a human and then have a werewolf and then they have a baby with a baby be half human half werewolf?
I just hope they continue to be this great and detailed with regular family game play because I think that’s important since most players are realistic like myself, although I will be getting this pack and exploring it to the fullest, the world is amazing, cas, bnb all amazing, and I am excited to experience this.
This makes me want a revamp for Vampires world. There are only four lots in it, after all. They could expand the world into something bigger like this. Maybe turn the present Vlad's mansion into a library/community center (functional graveyard?!) and give him a castle shell to skulk around. Perhaps, make that boarded up cave where bats come through into a rabbit hole passageway that takes you to his secluded, spooky mansion that is hidden away. Then add in more lore snippets on tombstones and in the vampire tomes. (Those are some thick, expensive tomes. They should be able to tell more about Vlad, the vampires in the portraits and the like.) 'Make that small island in the lake accessible (but you have to work a bit to find the way to it) and have it be the only place you can collect something rare. It also makes me want Realm of Magic to have a better lore system with the NPC sages fleshed out some. You got a small story regarding to why the Magic Realm is all disjointed and all, but other than that... Give us some history of the Realm before the void, the things the sages must do or put up with among the three of them to keep things in balance and all that jazz.
Love pine forests so much, the world is amazing. Not a fan of werewolves but it brings back that Maxis charm that the old games used to have. I really miss Sims 2 PsP and DS, the aliens and military conspiracies were truly my favorite. Sims 2 and Bustin’ Out were the epitome of those pop culture references, loved that era.
im loving the pack so far and have been having a lot of fun discovering the lore. one annoying thing though, with minimal spoilers, is that i learned that lily is related to some other sims in the game, and they seem to be really important to her. but just like johnny zest and the landgraabs, its just not there. they dont even know eachother. i know those sims werent from the werewolf pack so i dont know how possible it is to make that relationship exist, but it sure is disappointing learning about the relation after my sim already joined lilys pack and got engaged to lilys treasured lost relative she talks about a lot because for a moment i thought that would make for a really cool inadvertent reunion but its actually completely meaningless as far as actual gameplay is concerned
I went to the thrift store and just bought 6 sims games. Sims 4, sims 3 and 4 sims 3 expansion packs BUT IVE PLAYED SIMS 3 AND 4 AND I LOVE THE GAMES SO I NEEDED THEM ALL
I was really not excited when I heard that the next pack would be werewolves, but I agree, this world is very cool and it makes me actually want to play.
I have no interest in werewolves or occults but this world seems cool and the game pack seems like it could be fun! I’ll probably enjoy watching other simmers play it, rather than get it myself though but I’ll have fun watching!
I made my first werewolf yesterday and built him a home in an abandoned warehouse (I swear I wasn't even copying your idea either... I built mine before I saw yesterday's video). Anyway, today my sim met Victor and it turns out they're fated mates! That was really not my plan for my werewolf and now that he's met his 'fated mate,' he gets negative moodlets if he tries to even flirt with anyone else! That was unexpected, but I guess I'm joining the Moonwood Collective now. 😅
I couldn't have cared less about werewolves in the Sims 4, I was like "No way I am going to buy that game pack". But now seeing what it has to offer, I am almost convinced that I will buy it. It looks fantastic!
I really need to get a new laptop so I can play Sims again. Specially with them making a werewolfpack, have so many ideas of families I wanna make & play with that incorporate the werewolfstuff.
Glad you like the lots! If you need to fix them though, I won't be offended haha
Also - you were totally right about Rory and Lily's rooms at the house! I'm glad that came across
You did a great job with the builds 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Great job on the lots!! And congrats on the collab 🙌
The builds are amazing !! Probably a selling point for me since I’m not THAT interested in the gameplay
Fantastic builds, I agree with Lilsimsie, they all fit in so seamlessly with the world. The most Ive really done to them is more landscaping (because who wouldnt!?) and swapping some base game stuff for other packs. Such a great idea to use the mysterious tunnels as part of the builds....its inspired me to build down into the 'sewers and tunnels' too!
Such a great builds!!
You can see James’ veteran status as a rags to riches player with all the showers and beds he’s included on public lots
Right? Even though he doesn't let himself use the public lots for that.
Omg SO true! I didn't even think about that until now!
was thinking the same thing lol
You literally love to see it, especially with the cas aesthetic of this pack too!
I don’t like werewolves, but I am having so much fun with this pack, and this world.
I made a werewolf sim just to try it out, and she almost immediately ended up pregnant with twins by Kristopher and outgrew her trailer 🤦🏼♀️ so now I’m working on an old firehouse turned “wolf’s den” so she can hide her babies from the other pack lol. Sooo, definitely not my usual gameplay, but I’m having fun with it 😂
Also, the werewolf babies make puppy noises, and it is easily the best thing about this pack 😂
This comment alone has convinced me to buy this pack
Omg were you the person on reddit who was building an abandoned werewolf house?
would you put your build on the gallery? i would love to see it and download!
Omg they make sounds as babies? That's so neat vampire babies don't do anything

@@fddsite11 I hope when they add fairy's that they can spar with Spellcasters
@@lynchn9562 That would be cool.
This pack seems like it took so much work to make, which is crazy for a game pack! It feels like an expansion pack hahahaha I’m obsessed. They really stepped up their game this time around
Can we just appreciate that lilsimsie makes videos for us every day?
It is their job, they get paid to do this.
@@aloissalt4989 Well yes, but I was only saying that she does a good job to edit and post videos every day.
@@aloissalt4989 she doesn’t have to do it everyday bestie
@@fxncis Yes, to continue financially supporting the lifestyle they are now accustom to, yeah they do have to it everyday.
@@aloissalt4989 everyone’s got a side gig. Especially in the entertainment industry. That’s all I’m saying.
when I heard werewolves, I thought that it sounds kinda boring.. but Im actually impressed with everything this pack has! new world, new build/buy, new cas, game play!
This by far has the be one of the best pack and the best occults 10/10 pack
I would LOVE for them to go back to some of the old supernatural packs and refresh them with new attention to detail. I am so hype for this pack!!
This world is absolutely the best one of the smaller gamepack ones so far! I find some of the expansion pack ones more interesting but they obviously have an advantage of being larger and having more objects/lots/sims etc. for how limited they seem to have to make the gamepack worlds this one feels like it has more content than a few of the large ones!
i hope that with the werewolves and vampires that we get to have hybrids too. i think it would be so cool.
I was thinking of getting this pack just for the world 🤣 I’ve never been super into werewolves, but the town is stunning. I just don’t think I can justify spending $20 when money is tight and the world only has like 5 lots. I just really wish they’d add more lots.
I feel like with the more open world feel they are preparing for the sims 5 with little to no load screens. I love this pack!
I disagree, most of the worlds are pretty open, this one has more gameplay scattered around, but people haven't explored it.
ooooh i love the stories the townies come with. Like you could make the author of the books live in a different world and visit it sometimes and other stuff like that
I can see myself using this world a lot. I loveee how it looks and all the details!
This pack gives me strong gravity falls/stranger things vibes - from the world to the clothes and the build items. I love it
I think a cosmetology expansion pack would be so cool! Like so much gameplay, build mode, and cas objects would have to come with it! They could put a playable career as a cosmetologist (hairdresser, makeup artist, aesthetician, nail tech, etc.). They could also make a cosmetology school and complete a certain amount of hours. I think the school should be as long as it would take to get through a university year or semester or whatever. The point is that would be so cool and so fun! Maybe they could even make a new world with salons and the school and a sim version of cosmoprof and Sally’s beauty stores!
this is the first occult pack i bought for my game & i love it!! it's been so much fun to play & build in this world. also you referencing dan howell made me giggle :)
Whenever simsie makes videos like this, it always makes me super inspired and almost persuaded to get the pack. Out of all the packs I have, I feel like I’ll enjoy this pack the most! Just seeing this video already makes me absolutely ADMIRE this pack, the details, and the backstory’s. Also, thanks simsie for making awesome videos every singular day, (I’m subscribed)
Small little lore I learned from Tiktok but Lily is actually Caleb’s and Lilith’s (from the Vampire Pack) cousin. They were close until Lilith started getting involved with the “Dark Arts”. It was revealed that Lilith was turned by Vlad and that Caleb was turned by Miss Hell, a Sim featured in the trailer but not in-world. Anyways, Lilly stated that she was already growing apart from her family but was furthered pushed by both of them turning into life states that were considered mortal enemies.
I love that James made the library perfect for people doing rags to riches. Like he set it up to where that could be a place to go if you’re trying to do the challenge
I really love this pack! I don’t play with occults much so I probably won’t use the werewolves much, but they are fun. The main thing I love is the cas, as well as the world. A lot of the build stuff is great too! Overall a great pack!
I’m glad to keep seeing improvements by the sims team
James did the builds though.
@@citrusbutter7718 that’s why there is improvements
@@imjudyyy1945 Yeah but the credit should go to him as far as the interactive builds.
@@citrusbutter7718 agree but I was talking about the world not just the building in it
could you build greg's house? the exterior from the unplayable one in the world and give it an interior?
the world is so cool, so well thought. I'm in love with this pack, and I really like the werewolves
I’m getting into your old videos but I LOVE how quick you are because I just seen the trailer
I do believe I absolutely LOVE this world! It's my favorite!
i played this pack for several hours and i legit had so much fun, i was laughing so much. they did a great job with this one
Just wanted to say… My daughter (she’s 5) absolutely love you and your videos. I couldn’t agree more. She certainly has good taste. Sending you lots of love and only good vibes.
I feel like of the worlds released in the last year or 2, it's probably my favorite world. And James's builds are amazing.
This world is soooo good. I can't believe I saw some people complaining about them adding this new world.
I would like to see an option for adding split lots residential rental w/ retail. Or multiple residential, to build tiny home neighborhoods. Get larger lots w/ options to split up for building communities w/ mix of commercial and residential.
I love this world wayyyy more then I thought i would 😳 they managed to fit in so much on so few lots 😆
I don't buy packs and just play base game but this looks so fun!
I love the new world too! They did a good job on the pack!
The books are great! It's a running series about a character named Peter Barker. I immediately bought them for my sims
i love how open world this one feels
i have a bunch of respect to EA for adding so much detail to this pack! I personally don’t play with occults a lot but after seeing the detail and lore i might invest!!!
This pack and the world is very real big cottage vibes, like a family of werewolves that live in a cottage and have like a farm but like in that farm world whatever it’s called I don’t know!
Now i wonder if you have a human and then have a werewolf and then they have a baby with a baby be half human half werewolf?
I just hope they continue to be this great and detailed with regular family game play because I think that’s important since most players are realistic like myself, although I will be getting this pack and exploring it to the fullest, the world is amazing, cas, bnb all amazing, and I am excited to experience this.
i’m honestly shocked at how.. good this pack is
I absolutely adore the world too Kayla it’s beautiful!!
One of my favorites if not THE favorite world in The Sims 4
I really hope they go back and update some of the old packs
Im Loving the World And Characters, the lore is intresting. Having the sims community building lots, Maybe there will be hope for Sims 5 nuilding?
This makes me want a revamp for Vampires world. There are only four lots in it, after all. They could expand the world into something bigger like this. Maybe turn the present Vlad's mansion into a library/community center (functional graveyard?!) and give him a castle shell to skulk around. Perhaps, make that boarded up cave where bats come through into a rabbit hole passageway that takes you to his secluded, spooky mansion that is hidden away. Then add in more lore snippets on tombstones and in the vampire tomes. (Those are some thick, expensive tomes. They should be able to tell more about Vlad, the vampires in the portraits and the like.) 'Make that small island in the lake accessible (but you have to work a bit to find the way to it) and have it be the only place you can collect something rare.
It also makes me want Realm of Magic to have a better lore system with the NPC sages fleshed out some. You got a small story regarding to why the Magic Realm is all disjointed and all, but other than that... Give us some history of the Realm before the void, the things the sages must do or put up with among the three of them to keep things in balance and all that jazz.
Love pine forests so much, the world is amazing.
Not a fan of werewolves but it brings back that Maxis charm that the old games used to have. I really miss Sims 2 PsP and DS, the aliens and military conspiracies were truly my favorite.
Sims 2 and Bustin’ Out were the epitome of those pop culture references, loved that era.
Lore!!! I’m so glad they’re giving real backstories and relationships between townies
im loving the pack so far and have been having a lot of fun discovering the lore. one annoying thing though, with minimal spoilers, is that i learned that lily is related to some other sims in the game, and they seem to be really important to her. but just like johnny zest and the landgraabs, its just not there. they dont even know eachother. i know those sims werent from the werewolf pack so i dont know how possible it is to make that relationship exist, but it sure is disappointing learning about the relation after my sim already joined lilys pack and got engaged to lilys treasured lost relative she talks about a lot because for a moment i thought that would make for a really cool inadvertent reunion but its actually completely meaningless as far as actual gameplay is concerned
I went to the thrift store and just bought 6 sims games. Sims 4, sims 3 and 4 sims 3 expansion packs BUT IVE PLAYED SIMS 3 AND 4 AND I LOVE THE GAMES SO I NEEDED THEM ALL
I love the werewolf pack, you can roam around. lots to explore :D
wait the townies lore is so cool i would love to play with lou and try to cure his lycanthropy and get celene back
I am absolutely obsessed with this pack!
I'm playing now and two of my werewolf sims had a baby and nobody is talking about when the babies cry they howl omg
I was really not excited when I heard that the next pack would be werewolves, but I agree, this world is very cool and it makes me actually want to play.
james did so good on the builds!
As SOON as I met Kristopher in my save in the welcome wagon him and my sim immediately became soulmates 😭😭
This world might be the only reason I would come back to sims
I have no interest in werewolves or occults but this world seems cool and the game pack seems like it could be fun! I’ll probably enjoy watching other simmers play it, rather than get it myself though but I’ll have fun watching!
I made my first werewolf yesterday and built him a home in an abandoned warehouse (I swear I wasn't even copying your idea either... I built mine before I saw yesterday's video). Anyway, today my sim met Victor and it turns out they're fated mates! That was really not my plan for my werewolf and now that he's met his 'fated mate,' he gets negative moodlets if he tries to even flirt with anyone else! That was unexpected, but I guess I'm joining the Moonwood Collective now. 😅
I couldn't have cared less about werewolves in the Sims 4, I was like "No way I am going to buy that game pack". But now seeing what it has to offer, I am almost convinced that I will buy it. It looks fantastic!
I really need to get a new laptop so I can play Sims again. Specially with them making a werewolfpack, have so many ideas of families I wanna make & play with that incorporate the werewolfstuff.
i absolutely love that if you have two sims and they’re both away from the home lot, they’re still around
