After the way ea dialed back aliens and vampires I figured mermaids would be rated g. I really am beginning to think the 9 year old at EA Play is the target age for this game these days.

Dialed back vampires? Do you have any idea how many sims my vampires have killed?

You realize vampires have a hard time killing sims sure its possible but they can't directly kill a sim just by over feeding I'm starting to get really annoyed with EA this game isn't for kids it's for teens and adults yet they act as if its rated E. Wish they made it possible to have a m rated sims so we could directly kill a sim directly by over feeding or just draining them fully I almost got this dlc just so I could kill a sim now I dont know. If they made this m would be such a better game.

Right? I agree, no need to make M rated for that though. Movies, TV shows, games and other media rated for teen do have violence, murder, etc. I've seen so many gruesome shows rated for teens, apparently they're ready to be exposed to this kind of things according to the competent organs making those ratings. They could make non graphic killing easily on this game and stay T rate, they've done it in the past, TS2 used to have a crude humor and kids played it, death isn't even shocking in the Sims, its light hearted. They won't do it not because they can't but because they don't want to, it clashes with their current vision for the game. Don't get me wrong, I like the wholesome vibe the Sims have, but it's just not fun to have stuff taken away for no good reason.

Yea, with a mod. It really shouldn’t be that hard but that’s what you get when you start catering to children instead of the original audience.

Even though I love the game, Sometimes I ask myself if this is The Sims 4 or The Disney Simulator.

I was looking forward to having an evil mermaid too.. Darn. It does seem impossible to kill sims when you want them too. I think it took me 4 days to kill an elder sim and that was making her whoohoo in a rocket to exhaust her and still she lingered. I swear the easiest way to kill a sim is make them silly, a comedian, and then have a toddler or pet to play with and they will die of being hysterical before you can catch them sometimes... I've had to save at least 5 sims from dying from that so it's my new "you must die" go because it's much faster than locking them in a room for days. Although maybe touching the lava bombs would be faster now?

I think someone need to create a The Sims 4 Deadly Mermaids mod

Insanely enough I actually found killing a sim by drowning was the easiest by using a vampire. Again though, it's not directly but it's quite quick. If you drain their energy need then use the alter emotion skill to something positive like happy or confident it stops them from being too uncomfortable to swim in the ocean (does this happen with a pool too? I'm not sure). Anyway, then it's a simple matter of the swim here together interaction and you have one dead sim.

I am super frustrated with us not being able to directly kill sims. The only way I have found is by adding a rare crystal to one of the relics from jungle adventure and then you can poison another sim. That takes 3 days to work though which kinda makes it less satisfying. The death by emotions one is kinda a joke, the amount of work it takes is crazy and just makes the game not fun.

Disney's rough and violent. Think of Mufasa.

I drowned one of my sims and it worked (however it took around 2 hours and 2 random mermaids ;v;). I don't see why everyone else says it doesn't work? It might take a while but it DEFINITELY works!!! I'm soooo excited! Another grave to put beside my dead enemy Vlad.

Gosh, I never ever viewed the mythical mermaids as being evil. I think I'm glad, now, that my Global Superstar didn't run into any during his brief visit to the Island. :open_mouth:
