Re: Packs Merging

I think it could be an idea to merge some older packs that thematically fit strongly together into one. 

Through this it would basically be a permanent discount on this which would be good, making it a more attractive offering but also it would allow for the packs features to be expanded on because now everyone who owns pack A also owns pack B. 

When it's merged it does mean whoever owned one of the included packs would now get the other for free, but whoever already owned all included packs could get a code for a free kit of their choice or maybe a code for a discount on the next content to be released. 

For example Vampires, werewolves and Realm of Magic could all be merged into one full expansion pack at the standard full expansion price. 

All combined could allow for more interactivity between all that content. some new alchemy potions could be about vampires and werewolves, like to cure it or turn someone into one, creating alchemical plasma to drink or a rage reduction potion to help werewolves stay calm, or to enrage them and make them instantly wolf out. Could also be a new vampire themed cauldron and other interactive objects added that combine stuff from both packs. 

Especially thinking long term with more expansions being added for possibly many years to come, it also reduces a lot of clutter and keeps things more manageable. Might also make it easier to maybe streamline various features introduced across the expansions, combine some things, tidy it up.

    I would like the team to fix bugs before merging DLC.

    i don't know if they will do that but i'd love the idea to turn the packs into one pack

    like you said: Vampires, Realm Of Magic, and Werewolve and maybe even Life and Death because they're all dark themed kind of pack and maybe Crystal Creations, Spooky Stuff, Paranormal, Goth Galore and Grunge Revival since these are giving dark themed vibes and could've match with certain occults

    Vacation packs that can turn into 1 pack: Outdoor Retreat, Jungle Adventure, Strangerville, island living, Journey To Batuu, Snowy Escape and My Wedding Stories

    Love related packs: Romantic Garden, My Wedding Stories and Lovestruck

    Family packs: half of the packs which is family related (even some kits)

    Works and Businesses pack: Get To Work, Dine Out, Get Famous, Moschino, Discover University, Tiny Living, Nifty Knitting, Eco Lifestyle, High School Years, Home Chef Hustle, and Hobbies & Businesses (possibly even some kits)

    they're just to name a few, maybe i'm missing some packs that can be in the category i've mentioned
    i honestly don't know why they make things a Game Pack if they're no longer making ones? (same with Stuff pack)
    they should either be in Basegame or in an Expansion Pack now that we have lots of packs (and kits too)

    i doubt it will happen but i can only dream right? i swear they could make some packs into 1 pack

    before doing that, the team should fix the bugs and add more things that aren't in that pack yet first (refresh/overhaul) and later make it into 1 Expansion Pack

    agreed, i want the team to fix everything first, doing refresh like they did with Spa Day and then merge it into 1 big Expansion Pack

    Family Gameplay pack

    Dark Occult pack

    Vacation Pack

    Dating Pack

    etc

    we now have lots of them and some pack should be in Basegame
