Unpopular opinion but I agree with this. We've had very showy magic in the franchise, I'd like to see a more practical approach. Maybe even spiritual. Negative consequences if witchcraft is used for selfish reasons. A Granny Weatherwax philosophy of not using magic.
I agree on the practical approach to magic, but not so much on Granny Weatherwax's philosophy. If there's a witch GP, I'll focus on actually using the magic! :p

I'd like more subtle ways of influencing other sims. Make townies fall in love. Whisper spells without wand/hand wave. Homemade charms or bath salts that prevent mood swings or alleviate negative emotions. A spell limit like vampire energy.
Discovering potions through active trials and errors, like grafting, no standing still in front of an object or studying like vampire lore.
No big obviously magic skill object, being able to do all your craft in your kitchen. Lots of clutter and candles !
Sounds very Practical Magic, which is the style I'd prefer most too. I'd much rather a witch who has more use for ritual - collecting ingredients, performing incantations - than just a wand that zaps things Harry Potter style. I'd love a witch who had use for candles and a spellbook and an herb garden! Hopefully whatever they choose, if they make the pack, will allow that kind of gameplay.
