Toggle off non-human characters...

I really want to get get to work pack. Problem is, there are chances of encountering aliens. I will not get any non-human packs unless there is the option to toggle them off.

I'm an occult lover but i absolutely agree with you, and what more frustates me is the fact that they created an option for clubs to only accept sims with Vampires, Aliens or Mermaids traits but they didn't created an option to "erase" these traits in the game. Like... it's almost the same mechanic, so it's like they aren't even puting efforts in these request that are being made for a long time.

I would love this option to be customisable per save. Sometimes I want the occults, sometimes I want to play a realistic save.

I would love toggles too. I play both humans and occult games. Sometimes when playing humans you don't want occults in game. Sometimes I want occults and humans. It would be great to toggle off and on which occults you want in your game or if you don't want any, depending on your play style or the story you want to tell.

I think toggles would be a win-win situation for all players. I understand why a non-occult player would want an occult pack. I love that CAS and BB items that came with all these packs!

I agree there should be toggles for this

at least toggles to turn off different occults (and celebrities) from the randomized townie generation
also way to choose sims for the occult npc roles like Sages and Pollinator

I love occults but I hate how game will spawn these randomized ones that have none to do with my occult lore
same with celebrities it annoys me so much sim can just start existing and immediately be global superstar
like excuse me but what is the point of having famous sims if they are just being overridden by these nobodies

if we could turn off occults from randomized townie generation
that would mean that if you did cure/delete all your occult sims
there wouldn't be occults in your save.

it would also mean that we can keep just the occults we want being occults
(say Vlad could be vampire but not the entire sim earth)

it would also make way more sense to play vampire hunters etc,
since there wouldn't be limitless vampires

I love playing occults but am really disappointed in the way they are constantly toned down. As it stands now you will never see aliens unless you create one yourself or play the science career. Vampires only break in once and that's it. For spellcasters it is even impossible to make them behave like spellcasters outside the magic realm with the exception of an occasional broom arrival.

I would like to see a toggle to turn them off if this means the opposite will also be possible. If we can toggle them off, then the toggle on option can finally remove all the current restrictions on occults. The current situation tries to find some weird middle ground between pleasing realism and occult players which means neither can get what they really want. And a toggle for each individual occult would be best.

@chongjasmine occults have been toned down in all packs. You don't have to worry. Unless you deliberately seek them out, they won't interfere in any way. Alien abductions have been made so rare that they practically never happen unless you play an alien or the science career. There is no 100% guarantee but I personally don't think you will notice them much.

Yes! It would be the best option for customisation for sure.

I suggest you avoid & don't buy the following packs that have non-human characters/themes (Occults):
1. Get to Work
2. Seasons
3. Get Famous
4. Island Living
5. Discover University
6. Vampires
7. Jungle Adventure
8. Realm of Magic
9. Strangerville
10. Werewolves
11. Spooky
12. Romantic Garden
13. Paranormal

Warning: Base game contains non-human characters & occults.

What non-human characters does Seasons and Romantic Garden have?
