It would be really nice if the game had a graveyard. I play a lot of families and sometimes I miss the death of certain sims. A graveyard that collected all the tombstones of the deceased sims, you could go there to collect a tombstone or to drop off a tombstone.

I turned a lot into a public cemetery, it is kind of a pain transporting urns & tombstones there, via sims inventories.. but it looks cool and serves its purpose. I even made a mausoleum and it's designed after my rl neighborhood's local cemetery, very peaceful and serene.

It should've been there day 1. One of the first things I did in the Sims3 on each game was to go to it and get the death flower. Funeral s would be a great addition to the game and party/gathering area. Both creating your own will and funerals and getting invited to ones of Sims your sim knows.

TS2 has that so it should be do-able.

They've had lots of opportunities to put graveyards in the game. Vampires, Paranormal Stuff, Halloween patches. And yet they don't. It seems like such an easy thing to add. I'm not sure why they choose not to. Personally, I either think there's some technical limitation in the game that makes it game breaking, or it's just pure laziness. I still hope that they can add graveyards in someday!

I’d love a graveyard lot type (unless it had a ton of requirements), I’ve just been using a generic lot off the gallery and a mod to summon urns/release ghosts.

We know they can make them in this version of the sims because Sims 4: Cats and Dogs has an animal graveyard with animal ghosts. Unfortunately, the gaming industry is really bad when it comes to user experience vs. profit. My best guess is that the Sims 4 team is probably given a big list of things to do in a short time period, which would explain why some things in the game feel half done or don't work. I wouldn't be surprised if a different group within EA came up with the ideas for the games without consulting the game devs about implementation or user experience honestly. I could also be waaay overthinking here but it is well known that the gaming industry is awful to its employees.

Yay, looking forward to learn more aboout the L&D pack :)
I always had graveyards in my game, including long running funeral traditions. Would enjoy adding more features, but prefer to have graveyards combined with other lot categories. Got too few lots in my game to have separate graveyard lots.
