I hope the pack has mermaids

Okay, here is the thing, every occult has enough stuff to be it's own GP. Especially mermaids, if anything, they have the most because you could create a whole underwater world for them. But literally everything has the potential to be a GP. People have written entire series, made tv shows, heck entire genres exist around these things. There is more than enough to fill a $25.00 GP with. So, I personally think the "it doesn't have a enough stuff to be a GP" is just a poor argument.

Now, just because it COULD be a whole GP, doesn't mean it's likely that they will put in the work to produce evey single one, and that, I think, is the real crux of the thing. It has nothing to do with not having enough folklore to build a GP around, it's is it profitable/popular enough to put the energy and resources into it. That is a LOT of GPs. I could see witches and werewolves coming eventually, simply because they are more popular in North American Pop Culture. There are SO MANY lifestates introduced in TS3, unfortunately I just don't think they could devote a GP to everyone on a practical level. They'll have to get picky and choosy. If they do try and bring back all of them, they will likely have to start combining two in a GP, or putting things like robots in a SP instead, heck they might even try and fit four in an EP just to have the time to get them all in.

And some lifestates might even make it into an EP. Mermaids, as I said before, I think would have to go in an island/tropical EP because it would rely on them opening up the ways interactions for it.

Sorry but that's just objectively false. Mermaids, fairies, and robots have a lot of lore. Lore can also be created, the devs could add their own that fits TS4. Mermaids could come with their own underwater world and powers like vampires do. Around the world there are different versions of mermaids and sirens who are dark and malevolent, not cute Disney type mermaids who only sing which is what you're probably thinking about.

And I suggest you look into Irish and Scottish mythology about fairies. They are far more than tiny people with wings and have arguably the most lore of all fantasy species. As for robots, haven't you ever seen a movie lmao? Anything involving advanced technology and artificial intelligence works as lore for them.

I really dont understand this belief among many in the sims community that only Vampires have enough individuality to get their own pack. Most of the lifestates could easily have their own GP. It's just that y'all dont know much about the other supernaturals to care for them , and mainstream media promotes vampire, werewolf (and lately, witch) stories more than any other mythological creature so you're convinced there is "better" content for them.

Did you had to be snarky? Yes I know they are lore from other countries.I have read some of them.Im fan of monsters,and supernatural creatures.To me there is still not a lot of lore or pop culture that can go to separate pack.Witches I can see maybe.Faries no and mermaids. I did not also said they can't be dark or evil.

There also stuff you can't do in gameplay.Take the sirens? What can you do with Sirens. You can't kill anybody in the game . I guess you can make the power to make a sim fall in love with you

Also, my point is not every supernatural creature can be in their own pack. Do you rely believe stuff like Genie, plant sims, imaginary friends, and every sim life stage can be in their own pack.I personally don't.


Please stop judging me or others, because I don't have the same opinion as you do.

I wasn't being "snarky", I have not insulted you or your perspective at all. People are allowed to disagree with your claims, it's not my problem if you get offended by it.

I don't care if you disagree with me.But some things you said were rude. " Have you ever watch a tv show?" The "It's all you don't know about the other supernatural to care about them?" To me those statements are rude.

I agree with you @Horrorgirl6 Not every occult has enough background to fill a GP. Many would do well added to an EP. I hope merfolk are a part of a tropical pack, it just makes sense. Plus, if we get occults in EP's where they fit, we won't get a glut of occults at one time and they can be added into our game at a pace that we can handle.

And yes, they were very rude, take it from someone who knows. :D

I agree also that not every occult will have enough to fill a GP, although lore can be created solely for the game.

Also, there's not one rude sentence in Mika's entire post.

Yes, I do watch tv shows.

i'd love mermaids and i'd like the hula dance. they could add witches in the expansion. personally i dont watch tv anymore, so no comment on your conversation.

People never seem to understand sarcasm when I do it. I'm told that I'm mean and immature and need to grow up. Maybe we all need to step back and take a breath.

I mean it's not like there's a shorthand notation for sarcasm or anything, right? /s
