I dunno because I would love a goth kit but I really don't want death to be involved in any way. Please no. :'(
I actually think of it as a way to prevent death. If a player can play the Grim Reaper, they would have the power to stop death, wouldn't they? And I do think that should be a factor in a pack like this (If it were to ever happen).
To be honest, I play a lot of Sims and I use aging off. I don't like to see my Sims die. (Townies on the other hand.... *ahem*.) But I think about what else could be in a pack like this for those who are not inclined to celebrate death in a video game, and maybe it would be a way to honor the past, and play ancestors who lived long ago, but in the form of Ghosts, watching over their lineage.
There are nice ways to play these kinds of concepts, too. :)
I hate being the only exception in a discussion but you know that right, you can still prevent the death of a sim if you command another sim to talk with the Grim Reaper. I liked this part because it was fun, but if we increased this even further, the game would no longer have much to do with reality. And I have no desire playing in a ghost town with full of undead.
Yep, I do know that. Doesn't always work, though. It also doesn't stop me from wanting a job as a Reaper, or for wanting optional, playable ghosts that I can create in CAS. And Ghosts are technically already playable if you add them to your household, so it's not beyond the scope of the game anyway.
I don't like to play games of reality, I like a life simulation game to simulate a life (or death) that I can't have. I want anything to be possible. Too much realism without the spice of Occults, superstition, and unique lore that pushes the boundaries is just not interesting to me, I wouldn't play it. Plus, The Sims has always had bizarre supernatural, sci-fi and fantasy elements worked into it. But the beauty of Sims 4 is, people who don't want those elements can just skip those types of packs, just like I skipped Parenthood, Dream Designer and Weddings. That's the great thing about niche themes being in their own pack because they don't invade the base game and force it on everyone. :)
