Suggestion: Pets and Witches
Hi folks!
Sorry posting it here in case this is not the right place to do it. First and foremost, a constructive critic: your forums are TOO MUCH complicated. I was just looking for a suggestion Forum for The Sims 4, and all I could find was a pile of weirdly organized topics. I suppose there are hidden sections for bugs, suggestions, general discussion, etc, but I could find none. This is my first time here, and I am completely lost. So, first request: try a more traditional - and accessible - approach: go from filter to filter, progressively, allowing us to select a game, then see the forum and the sections, and than post something.
Well, the main subject on this post is to suggest two MAJOR contents I really miss from The Sims 3: Witches and Pets. I'm not sure if this fits into Stuff Packs, Game Packs or if this have enough content to become Game Expansions, but I'd really like to have something to become Wizard / Witches (no need of zombies or werewolves, at least not for me) and to have my dogs, cats, mice (we already have them at City Living expansion, but they would be official pets) and hamsters, and other minor pets, like ant farms, fish tanks and tropical birds or exotic ones, like frogs, snakes, turtles, salamanders, ferrets, etc (I do not care about horses, lol).
For the Pets expansion, we could create a variety of races of dogs and cats, we would customize mice colors and dogs and cats breeds and colors (great work done in The Sims 3, please bring them back). As you did previously, these pets would be playable characters, would be able to mate and we would have a whole selection of items for them - we could even have a Pet Shop selection of items, a Pet Shop lot to visit and, for the ones who own the Get to Work expansion, we could be able to open and run our own Pet Shop, selling items for pets and even selling animals, like puppies, kittens, fishes, etc - which we could just order into our stocks or breed ourselves.
For the Witches / Wizards expansion, we could me able to plant (gardening) magical plants, like Mandrakes, Nightshades, and so on, so we could concoct potion using a cauldron (hmm new Sim skill ahoy, lol). We would drink these potions or throw on another sims, just like it was in The Sims 3. We could also have wands to cast spells (another skill which, in case it goes wrong, could affect our own sims negatively). We could also deal with Ghost Sims with these spells. We could have also an Enchanted Broom (hard to craft using a cauldron, then a special potion, then a Wand spell cast during the night, for instance), which would resemble the magic brooms from Walt Disney Fantasia (Mickey's Sorcerer Apprentice). These brooms would act like the old "Servo" from previous The Sims game, cleaning and fixing things... but as I said this would be a hard to come by solution, not to banalize the usual ways of the game, acting more like a prize.
We could even have a cross between these two Pack, Pets and Wizards: for the player who own both packs, we could have specific content, like unique pets (owls, ravens, snakes, rats, or even tigers, for instance), the ability to turn our Pets into Familiars (granting them magic powers), or magic pets (like fairies, carnivore sentient venus flytraps, gargoyles and mini-dragons).
Thanks a lot! :D
