I hope we could have a Dungeons and Dragons themed stuff pack or game pack. What do you think? A large table for sims to play the tabletop game with, a few fantasy themed clothing and hair items to play with (my favorite D&D race is the tiefling), and a few medieval fantasy inspired hairstyles. Some D&D art for the walls, a few sculptures. Some modern clothes, like T-shirts, with D&D graphics, like dragons or dice. D&D tattoos. I imagine they'd have to get permission from the owners of the Dungeons and Dragons game and maybe pay a fine ... so it might not be so easy. :/

Why not more than D&D? A full on LARP/TTRPG pack, with D&D style fantasy, Call of Cthulhu pulp horror, Shadowrun-esque Cyberpunk, World of Darkness inspired Vampire Fanboys (and girls)...

Boardgames and to a lesser extend tabletop rpgs is something I've wanted for a long time. I set up my sims for roleplaying sessions before, but without a dice rolling animation it's just not the real thing.They could make one dice rolling animation and tie it to a dice shaker (leather, tin and plastic swatches). Place the shaker on a table and sims will start a normal dice rolling game. But if the shaker is put on a board instead, the sims will play that game. The animation would be the same as the standard one, but with the occasional swiping movement (for moving pieces) and scribbling with a pen strewn (for marking points or hitpoints) in.Board swatches might include Monopoly, Risk and a generic dangeon floorplan for D&D. New clutter in the pack would include dice, character sheets, pencils and pens and miniatures.

Oh, board games would be a really fun stuff pack. Gives our sims something to do! Maybe D&D can be the most fleshed out one... maybe you could even get to decide what kind of players your sims are. What they're playing as. Their character's name, race, class, alignment. Just as a minor feature! Maybe with each different board game you would get notifications for an approximation of what's going on in their game as well. I admit I don't take much time out of my day to play board games in real life anymore, but our sims really don't have enough stuff to do. This could also be a part of a Freetime-kinda gamepack. I mean, a free patch with board games would be amazing, but I'm trying to stay realistic. New functional items are usually DLC.

Sims Medieval as a stuff pack :)

Oh I love this! We need more hobbies and board games and RPG/LARP stuff would be great.Also, I feel like if there were a 'What character will they play' feature, it could tie in with an online dating feature? Like they could have the same UI, something like this: media.tumblr.com/2a835a8f3dd040db446d9fb823849ccd/tumblr_pza0tge5Ln1vsjiiyo1_1280.png

Mmmm. Maybe.
Although whilst reading that, I was thinking of some spin off Sims style Dragon Age spoof, Castaway Stories style.

I didn't realize I wanted this, thank you. It would be very easy to put a Sims-style spin on Dungeons and Dragons so that it doesn't break copyright. It would probably give me hands down the biggest reason to use the club system. Geek sims get upset if they haven't played for an extended period of time. There'd be a friendly option to 'obsess about Dungeons and Dragons character' or something.

I also would like board games in general to be a part of it. Cards and Don't Wake the Llama are fine, but having actual board games would be amazing.

All this said, I want anything that is Sims But Fantasy. I'm STILL upset that the Sims community voted for horses over dragon riding. That was such a disappointment for me.

People are so boring. I wanted dragons.

I am totally down for this!! EA get on o
it!!!
Its ironic, I moved Simeon Silversweater the Sage of Practical Magic from ROM into of my households. Not only is he a wizard/sorcerer, he's also a geek! I set him as the leader to a Geek Club and they meet to play Cards/Dont wake the llama. I imagine its the equivalent to D&D. He'd make the perfect DM lol.
