So you guys have probably already seen the teaser for the new Stuff pack. I just wanted to expess that I feel dissapointed the supernatural theme is wasted on a Stuff pack. Happy Haunts should have been a game pack imo and seeing how stuff packs only come with 1, max 2 new small gameplay features I feel like the whole supernatural thing is wasted. We're just gonna get spooky hair, spooky outfits, spooky furniture because stuff. There will be not much new spooky gameplay. Personally, I don't feel like I need even more spooky CAS and BB as much as I need spooky gameplay in my game. Like cemeteries and haunted houses, a fear emotion etc. Happy haunts should have been a game pack and Journey to Batuu should have been a stuff pack (or not exist at all)

I agree. It could have been an amazing Game Pack and I also still think Realm of Magic should have been an EP. Also, I saw a lot of people who said they specifically didn't vote it first because they wanted it to be a game pack, not a stuff pack (myself included).But I'm still going to wait it out and see what they did put in it before lodging my official complaints. It doesn't help to start it off in disappointment, though.Edit: I did vote it first because I wanted it to be bumped up high, but I didn't necessarily want it to win because I though it would make a better GP.

I'm going to also wait and see what it brings. Sucks to wait but who knows what awesome supernatural content they could be saving stuff for? Because I'm sure we will still get fairies, wearwolves or zombies if not all three. Can't see them not making the most popular occults.

Just saw this upon logging in - I assume this is the new Happy Haunts pack that you guys are discussing? I guess if paired with seasons, spooky stuff, and vampires, it might add some more to that vibe? I don't have spooky stuff or vampires though and honestly don't think I have much interest in this pack, but who knows. Is is going to be more of a ghostbusters kind of deal? I remember there was a ghost hunter profession in TS3 ambitions so perhaps it will bring something like that to the game?https://i.imgur.com/9SzNjsT.png

i do hope for a ghostbusting Career permanentrose

I haven't yet logged into my game today, uncertain what is staying my hand. But, if this will enhance a lot, let's say, that has the Haunted Trait, then I'm all for it. I was so very disappointed in that the trait only brings a ghost of a Sim from the game. Same as if they died on your own lot. Nothing to fear, nothing to break into a sweat over. No need to call Ghost Busters, politely introduce yourself and makes friends. Casper is Friendly, after all. Face/palm. If these ghosts will be more like the ones from Sims2 and actually haunt and possibly be able to scare to death, then I will be thrilled. Under that scenario, I may be interested in this pack.

I am, on the whole, disappointed. I wanted Happy Haunts to be a game pack or even an EP. Just a stuff pack? Meh. How is this different from Spooky Stuff?

I desperately want more occult content but not just Stuff. I want careers, life states, something us occult Simmers can really have fun playing with.

It might be pretty big for a Stuff Pack. We have been getting in-depth Stuff Packs lately.

it could be reversed first pet stuff pack, where we first get the stuff pack and then the game/expansion pack to complement just so it's not too evident that they're just profiting the theme, no?

I mean, they did it with Tiny Living and Eco Lifestyle. You might be on to something.

true, i don't like when ea does this cuz it screams greediness, but i'm sure it will be the case again especially given occults release pattern

I kind of still want the pack, because the ghost hunter career could be fun. I want the option for fears for your Sims who do the career, because the Sims not being scared or being scared of ghosts would add to the game.

I really don't get the hate on SP, I feel ever since Kids Room stuff the packs have been quite good for what a stuff pack offers, we got new skills, collectibles, careers, even a new lot type, all on top of the actual 'stuff' that comes with the pack (which is what I usually get a SP for anyways, the clothes and build objects)

Im more saddened that the occult representation in the game is focused on a cutesy occult instead.
