Science collaborating with the Supernatural!

Hey again, everyone!

Ever since The Sims 4 Strangerville, I've been glad to see some Sci-Fi, Secret Science, and Shadow Government related content placed in the game. Plus, conspiracy theorists and the paranoid trait!
I remember commenting about introducing a Paranoid trait before.
Anyway, in a world full of Witches, Werewolves, Vampires, Aliens, Genies, Mermaids, Zombies, Mummies, Walking Skeletons, Fairies, Bigfoot, and the Kraken, I'm surprised that we have finally been introduced to Legit Conspiracy Theorists and Paranormal Investigators.
Well... On the topic of Paranormal Investigators, I know we had Ghost Hunters back in The Sims 3, but we never exactly had Paranormal Scientists.
Which brings me to this topic.
Supernatural Scientists!

Tired of the same old Medieval, Celtic, Gothic, Victorian, and Gypsy-themed Magical Content? In a world where Science is present with the Supernatural, wouldn't it be valid for the scientific community to hop right into the Supernatural and figure out how it all works?
Want a bit of High Tech Modern Content to go with the Supernatural/Arcane?
I do. I would like to see what we can do if we inject science into the supernatural/magical.

We can have Alchemy back! Since it was once considered a Science. As a matter of fact, you could consider Alchemy as the Great Grandfather of Modern Day Chemistry.
We could collect DNA from Vampires, Werewolves, Witches, Fairies, whatever occult Sim we can collect from and start analyzing and manipulating their DNA to create a Hybrid or a completely new occult! Even use the DNA you've collected to turn yourself into your favorite occult in a matter of seconds!
You can experiment with Magical/Cursed objects, Contain powerful and mysterious artifacts, store ancient texts and documents holding arcane knowledge, and even create your very own Magical/Cursed object!

Of course, you can still have that good old Medieval, Gothic, Victorian Themed Magic, but now you can go for different themes!

If you want a Dr. Frankenstein's Laboratory, A Sleek and High Tech Science Facility that acknowledges the world's supernatural matters and concepts, or you want the SCP Foundation in your Sims; You got it!

I always like to see something new in our Sims. So maybe this could be a new and bright addition to our game.

What are your thoughts? What new Themes and/or content do you think should be implemented in the game? Would you build a Paranormal/Supernatural Studies Facility?

As always,

Thank you for reading and responding to my posts.

  • I think the astrology/horoscope concept could fit in very well too. We could have some astronomical elements which belong to science, so that astrology could collaborate with it. Maybe we will have a whole new set of Sim Zodiacs (not the 12 traditional ones) and we can see the constellations in the backdrop!

    Apart from that, the moon phases could be brought into the game, and the full moon could have some effects on Sims' behavior. Gypsy Matchmaker should make a comeback too, and she will probably enable a whole new connection to the dimension of the dead Sims!
