@bluehope9 , I agree and clicked the Me Too button!! 🥳 In fact, I agree with everything you said, with one exception -- and that is that there is still plenty to do in Get to Work (which is the EP that Aliens came in). Both Island Living and Get to Work have other gameplay elements, which take away from how detailed the Mermaids and Aliens ended up being. 😥 I think in the case of Aliens, they had no idea that there would end up being an Ability Tree or any supernatural Aspirations, (since that was introduced with Vampires) so I can understand why the Aliens aren't really developed, though there is no excuse for that in the case of the Mermaids! However, Mermaids and Aliens really needed their own Game Packs! They both look great, but their gameplay is just so bland! 😓
I do love your ideas for making the Aliens more fleshed out and detailed! Although I think they are not going to do any more pack refreshes, I would love if they refreshed the Aliens and Mermaids and gave them proper Ability Trees! 🥰 I think Aliens trying to learn human behavior would be so much fun!!!
Let's hope that if they ever do Fairies or Zombies in Sims 4, they are in their own Game Pack and have lots of abilities to choose from! 🤞
