The trailer is quite something. I like that we finally have confirmation about playable fairies. I am a bit confused about the change from the teasers so far. The teasers were trying to be so subtle to the point where they seemed to go out of their way to hide fairies at all costs. And now they are thrown in our face right from the start. It just feels odd. But I am too excited for fairies to waste anymore energy over what we have been through.My thoughts✅fairies!!! Not sure yet how far their gameplay is developed but I have seen enough to play with. ✅interesting new build mode objects. They feel a bit chunky, I don't know if we can easily use them outside of the fairy context but I will try✅CAS: the fairy wings and clothing look great. It's something totally different from realistic clothing and I love it. 🙂 One of the accompanying pictures on the blog even shows a blue skinned fairy with horns.➖apothecary skill: feels like a variation on herbalism, magical potions, science serums. We have a few craftables with special effects. I will wait and see if this adds anything new to the idea❌ailments: feels like something that can be really annoying once the 'new' wears off. I hope there is an opt out in game settings, through lot challenges or with a special reward trait.✅world: looks like an extention of Henford on Bagley. That's one of my favorite worlds so I don't mind. I had hoped a bit more sylvan glade vibes but it's ok.➖living in nature: foraging and sleeping remind me of werewolves. It's nice to have this available for every one. Bathing in nature is a nice addition after showering in the island living waterfall❌children: no child fairies, nothing new for children to do. I so wish that occult lifestages would include all ages. Occult simmers can like family play too, you know.❌gnomes: I hope we can avoid them. The fact that they were only low key present in the reveal trailer gives me hope.❌Bonus items: the additional fairy house looks cute. I consider this a downside because I don't like the principle of early buyers rewards.

Don’t worry non-Fairy Sims, you can also have some magical fun with Fairy Dust, using it to enchant plants, bring Gnomes to life, and more."Bring Gnomes to life" and Apothecary Todd were originally from The Sims EP7 Makin' Magic. But be wary of Emotional Starvation. Rather than living off food, Fairies absorb emotions to survive, either directly from other Sims or from bottled Emotion Potions. Failure to do so may welcome their untimely demise. I hope Cowplants will be able to produce "Essence of Fear" soon in order to feed Discordant Fairies.

I'm starting to think they'll be as in depth as Unicorns....

sailorleontine and atreya33 It says in the blog that gnomes can be brought to life with pixie dust. So you can keep them as decoration only if you want.

I liked the trailer. The world is beautiful and it appears that there's indeed a big forest. I am not much into the fairies, though they do look pretty, but I love everything else that comes with the pack. The BB looks beautiful, there seem to be lots of new plants and the new apothecary skill appears to be quite detailed. Can't wait to find out more. Also, wish they would give us an unbroken version of that mermaid ship, it's too cool looking to only have it as a wreck.

Hm... just spotted a detail that I missed earlier. You can read it in Simlish, right?
If case not - is this a Pregnant Fairy? She moves differently.

Ooo, Simmerville, it certainly looks as thought she may be preggers. Which begs the question: If the faeries are able to get pregnant, will they give birth to babies that are actively faeries as well? Or will those babies need to age up a bit before they're able to exhibit their inherent faerie powers???
The anticipation! 😊

In the trailer, the elder with a watering can on his head reminds me of Cadwell in Elder Scrolls Online who wears a cooking pot on his head like Don Quixote who wore a shaving basin for his helmet. 😁
