^ ^ you know me AmaraRena I have to have back story to them to come up with some good gameplay idea's.
I love the whole potion options of sims, but everyone and anyone could make potions as well. I felt like witches should have their own set of potions they only could make.
Spells didn't seem that powerful. I really wanted my sims to perform some fantastic spells with the wand. Not just freeze or set things on fire. Witches have this mystical effect about them that can be either terrifying or good. I just felt my sims didn't have enough emphasis on their character.
Like an example of that is do you remember the wizard of oz. Okay there was a sequel to that called The Tin Man. Omg was the witch terrifying in that movie. It made me think sims witches aren't scary at all you can't really tell if their good or bad. The weird thing was that witch could eat souls so i couldn't figure out which witch she was that become trapped in the caves.
I mean you have so many stories of witches and the evil witch whether ugly or good is terrifying some how and it just seems the gameplay behind them doesn't show that in sims. Then it's like the good witches, well what's so good about them any normal sims can do that just not so fast.
You get what I mean improve their back story so you can add better gameplay behind them.
I know exactly what you mean! I LIKE the witches in Sims3 but they're rather... lackluster. I expected their powers to be far more awesome and not just a sparkly version of the Handiness skill! The freezing and fire are nifty but really nothing to get terribly excited about. I'd really like to see a wider range of spells and definitely both good and bad spells.
