Sims 4 Hospital Health Expansion Pack idea
Expansion pack idea: Health & Disease | EA Forums - 5021523 someone made a topic it inspired me to create my own version
I also saw an another one in which i like the idea of it Theme hospital | EA Forums - 12149354
The first one i think it should be optional to toggle diseases death types off for those who doesn't like the idea of it and NOT at all are into way TOO realistic gameplay in general (just like they did with strong emotions moodlet types)
It doesn't always have to be realistic, i think with this pack idea i have in mind is to also have some kind of problems that is unrealistic, like occult cures or treatments but also like molds, zombies and other unrealistic diseases problems your sim don't have control over it (meaning: some kind of other cross-packs ideas)
I can't think of any unrealistic gameplay diseases but it doesn't have to be too realistic
Aspirations:
-Help people in need (which have diseases)
-To live a long and healthy life
Personality traits:
-Worrisome
-Helpfull
-Protective
As for the gameplay in general we should definitely add something it influence your sims health or like have a new lot trait or lot challenge with my ideas i'm about to mention here:
Your sim is at home, it have a energetic or happy moodlet if your sim do active stuff and lose weight (especially when spending your time outdoors)
But if your sim is doing nothing (like sitting on a couch or lying/sitting on a bed) the whole day, it has a uncomfortable or embarassed moodlet and you'll gain weight and you won't feel too well because you're doing nothing (or atleast nothing active) the whole day spending your day indoors or atleast at home
It also needs a new type to bring your ghost sim back to life with the hospital venue type since we have so little options to bring your sim back to life
Before anyone ask me: "but we already have hospitals with the *get to work* pack"
That's true but you can only visit there if you work there or if your sim is in labor, we need more gameplay even for hospitals so we can also visit there at any time (similair with the vet venue type that comes with "cats and dogs" pack)
With all of our ideas combined it ask for "Get To Work" refresh with cross-pack ideas (atleast 10 or 15 more lot types both big and small) but knowing EA it's less likely to happen sadly but i can dream right?
Update: someone in the comment about an another realistic gameplay in which i'm totally cool with it
This part of the gameplay is to visit a hospital for a medicine to cure your sim, go for a check-up then get checked out and go home to take some rest, not being allowed to leave the house (not even by going to school or work and if you own a business your sim should stop running businesses) untill your sim is all better, your sim should visit the hospital for a check-up to see if the medicine or treatment have helped your sim from some sort of illness or diseases
You'll get a uncomfortable moodlet if your sim overwork themselves (similair to elder sims) while being ill, the energie need decrease faster than normally if you don't take care of yourself for that reason
It also even mentioned having pregnancy check-ups if your pregnant sim visit the hospital, i'm definitely in for a pregnancy check-ups and even announce if it has only 1 baby, twins or even triplets, same with having boy(s) and girl(s) and maybe even takes advices by a doctor
Just thought i added what someone have mentioned in the comments (and honestly it match perfectly with this pack idea)
For myself I wanted was sick Sims to have the option to go to the hospital as well just taking medicine like in previous some Sims had to stay home from work and school and rest and get cured. Sims 4 just right seems unrealistic get medicine your cured, just like pets going to vets I want Sims to go to the hospital get checked out even receive a doctor's note if they are need a rest for day or two from school and work. Also pregnant Sims can get check ups to see how they and the babys doing you know.
