For me I am trying as hard as I can to keep my imagination and the joy that comes from having magic and fantastical things happening in your save going strong. It has been a real blow to me that I no longer have seen vampires coming around. That spellcasters hide their magic outside the realm unless I log into every single household and give them a broom personally.

I am really saddened by this. It is like I really have to fight the game in order to see the things I enjoy.

If they are against toggles then I wish that they could utilize lot-traits a lot more.

Lot-trait FOR vampire-breakins. "Plasma-central"

Lot-trait FOR magic "spellcasters on this lot may cast magic from time to time"


It feels like the things I enjoy the most are supposed to be a dirty little secret. There if you personally are playing the sim but completely hidden if you play one of your average sims. Wish that I could get a more magical feeling while playing all my sims. Not just my mains or when I create specific clubs.

No. As I said in another thread, the lot traits should be to turn them OFF, not making people who want the game play and buy the pack FOR the game play having to use their lot trait slots to turn them on. ON should be default, OFF should be optional.

Except it doesn’t really work like that. By default a lot trait usually activates rather than de-activates.

If I want more vampires to visit my lot, I have to choose ‘Vampire Nexus’.
If I want more cats or dogs to visit my lot, I have to choose cat or dog hangout.
If I want more ghosts, I choose ‘haunted’, etc.

There are exceptions like ‘off the grid’, but I would need to enhance that gameplay entirely through placing objects on the lot that support that lifestyle.

If by default everything was turned ON, the player will need to do a lot more work and add plenty more lot traits in order to turn everything OFF.
