not a great idea but i jokingly asked chatgpt for a Hercules based pack (which is based on greece) and this is what it said:

Expansion Pack: The Sims 4: Mythos of Olympus

Tagline: “Live like a mortal… or a god.”

• World: A Greece-inspired world (whitewashed houses, cliffside towns, olive groves, and temples). A mix of seaside villages and mythic ruins.
• Gameplay Features:
• Divine Favor System: Sims can gain blessings or curses from gods based on actions (similar to Fame or Reputation).
• Hero’s Journey Career/Path: Train as a warrior, bard, or athlete in the style of Hercules. Complete “labors” (quests like catching mythical beasts, finding artifacts).
• Underworld Travel: Sims can descend into the Underworld through a hidden portal—either as mortals (dangerous) or with special blessings.
• Olympian Festivals: Games, theater, and competitions (foot races, discus, poetry contests).

 

Game Pack: The Sims 4: Legends & Lore

Tagline: “Where mortals meet the divine.”

• Focus: Greek mythology woven into daily Sim life.
• New Gameplay:
• Mythical NPCs: Muses (who inspire creativity boosts), Fates (random chance events), Nymphs.
• Worship & Offerings: Sims can pray or make offerings at shrines, with varying results.
• Oracle Career: Predict fortunes, hold ceremonies, or scam gullible Sims.

 

Hercules & the Hero’s Path

• Aspiration: Hero of Legends → Sims must complete “heroic labors” (quests like defeating mythical beasts, training at the gym, rescuing Sims).
• Gameplay Tie-In: A Sim like Hercules could start as a clumsy, awkward teen with the Goofball and Good traits, then train up fitness and charisma to unlock Heroic Actions (like saving a Sim from danger).
• Special Reward Trait: True Hero → boosts reputation, charisma, and fitness gains.

 

 Megara & the Deal with Hades

• Aspiration: Love & Loyalty → balance romance goals with “soul debt” to Hades.
• Gameplay:
• Sims can make “Deals with the Underworld” (trade relationship gains for debts).
• Meg’s storyline could inspire a new mechanic: Bound to the Underworld—a Sim owes favors to Hades until they’re paid off.

 

Hades & the Underworld

• NPC Role: Acts like Vlad or Guidry—pops up when Sims meddle with shrines or make bargains.
• Gameplay:
  • Sims can bargain with him: trade years of life, relationships, or simoleons for temporary boosts.
  • Hades might send Furies (special NPCs) if Sims break deals.
• Special Lot: The Underworld, with the River Styx, shades (ghost Sims wandering), and Cerberus guarding the entrance.

 

The Muses

• NPC Group: A choir of immortal Sims that occasionally appear at festivals or special events.
• Gameplay Effects: Inspire Sims with buffs: Inspired, Confident, or Playful after hearing them sing.
• Could function like bards/storytellers at amphitheater lots.

 

Zeus, Hera, and the Olympians

• Zeus (NPC): Occasionally blesses Sims with “Divine Favor” if they perform good deeds (similar to fame perks).
• Hera (NPC): More focused on family values and reputation—encourages marriage, children, and legacy.
• Mount Olympus Lot: A floating palace in the sky (like a secret hidden world similar to Sylvan Glade).

 

Phil (Trainer of Heroes)

• Role: A mentor NPC who trains Sims in fitness and charisma.
• Gameplay: Could run a “Hero Training Ground” lot (like a gym, but with unique hero challenges—obstacle courses, wrestling practice, archery).
• Aspiration Tie-In: Helps Sims progress in the Hero of Legends aspiration.

 

Pegasus

• Pet Variant: A winged horse (basically a horse with decorative wings—maybe added via a Mythic Creatures Kit).
• Can accompany heroes on adventures, boosts travel time, and gives emotional buffs when nearby.

 

Villain Storyline Option

• Sims could choose to side with Hades instead of Olympus, pursuing an aspiration like Lord of the Underworld.
• This lets them build power by corrupting Sims, gaining followers, and even taking over Olympus in a climactic event.

 

This setup would let players play through Hercules’ movie storyline in Sims form:

• Hercules starts mortal, trains with Phil, becomes a hero, falls for Meg, battles Hades, and ascends to Olympus…
• OR, you could remix the story, letting Meg dump Hercules, Hades “win,” or Pegasus become the true hero.

 

New Traits (CAS)

Blessed by the Gods

• Sims gain random Inspired, Confident, or Happy moodlets more often.
• Easier to build friendships and romance.
• Downside: Occasionally get “Hubris” debuff if they brag too much.

Cursed

• Sims occasionally get bad luck (objects breaking, relationships souring, losing at contests).
• Unique interactions with Hades (he’ll offer deals more often).
• Pairs well with “Meg-style” storylines.

Hubristic

• Sims love to boast about achievements.
• Gain confidence easily but suffer angry/sad moodlets if they fail.
• More likely to challenge others to duels or competitions.

Brave

• New positive trait.

• Special interaction: “Take Charge” → inspires nearby Sims with Confident.
