This is where you can posts your grievances and concerns for the new pack.
A.No attacking the gurus or the sims teams
B.No bickering in the comments.
Alright,this needs to be said.We are going to have playable faries.There not npcs or special pets.On Simscomunity we have a picture that shows life size faries.
I need more infos but I worry about
I think there misunderstand with the markiting.The marketing is a sim who is experiencing the new pack first hand.There witnessing,and experiencing the stuff in ack.
That's why evan new traits it's talks about other sims who have the traits.Not they have a trait.
When you see faries that the same thing.The narrative is them meeting faries.So they wouldn't talk about you becoming one.
apothecary remind me of herbalism.
herbalism, serums, potions. I'm getting tired just thinking about it.😴
Botanical perfumes, tinctures and oils could go with spas and massages/facials too...back when all that came out.🧚🏾♀️
Only worry I have is that it will be as bare bones as all the other packs have been , with seriously little content
I also fear that this new world will be less wild, mysterious and "magical" than Sylvan Glade.
To be honest, the leaked world pictures looked a lot like Henford. I was really expecting to see a magical forest.
crocobaura I haven't seen them but I like Henford!
Well, it's been a hot minute since I've been posting 'round these parts. The pony and life keeps me busy.
I've been a little disappointed in the world for the upcoming pack. i would have liked an enchanted forest to be more ... enchanted. Too many cobbled roads and looks too orderly. Sigh.
Ok, so based on what I saw in the trailer, I have both positive and negative feelings about this DLC. Since we’re sharing our thoughts in two separate threads, here are mine for the not-so-positive side:
Herbalism was already a weak feature in the game, and now they’re adding apothecary — which, from what I can tell, is probably going to be quite similar. Personally, I’m not excited about it. I would’ve much preferred an actual upgrade to herbalism rather than something that feels like a copy-paste. Plus, we already have teas (with the tea machine) that help with illnesses, and let’s not forget the good old online-ordered medicine bottle. It’s all a bit repetitive to me — nothing truly new or exciting.
The whole system of illnesses is just… all over the place!
You meet a biting bug while hiking? You’ll need a special tool from a vending machine — but only the ones that come with the Snowy Escape pack.
Catch a disease while exploring the temple in the jungle? You’ll need a special remedy that only comes with the Jungle Adventure pack.
And those annoying symptoms your Sims can get at home? They’re actually from the Get to Work DLC. You can either go to the hospital (if you have that DLC), or use the regular medicine bottle — again, tied to that specific pack.
And now, we’re getting more diseases… with new cures that will, of course, only be available through this new DLC.
It’s just too fragmented — everything is tied to a specific pack, with no overlap. Honestly, it’s a bit of a mess. I really wish they’d taken this opportunity to unify the whole illness system instead of scattering it even more across different expansions.
And the fairies… oh dear. They look like they came straight out of a Disney movie — and that’s really not the vibe I want in my Sims game. It looks like there are “fairy levels” too, since one Sim had small wings, which I’m guessing will grow with time or power. Pfffff... seriously, I couldn’t care less. 😑
Honestly, I wish there were an option for ugly fairies — you know, mischievous gremlin-type ones! I’d love to fly into random houses and cause total chaos. Now that would be fun! 😃😁😈
That being said, I shared all my positive thoughts about the pack in the other thread!
