Think about it. There nothing but Sims With Different Skin Color and Hair, An Idle Emotion, and almost nothing in Abilities.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97OgHs99L0UThe problem is come lies for me is the wasted Opportunities. I just noticed, We Had Three. 3 Environment Related Themed Expansion Packs (Seasons, Island Living and Eco Lifestyle) in the past three years yet none of them expanded the Plantsim. I think Seasons had one but it was so small that it was forgettable. How could this happen? If they cannot add them in Season Due to Weather, or Island Living due to Ocean Swimming, then Why Skip it on Eco Lifestyle? Personally, I would rather have a Fleshed out Plantsims that has an actual impact to the Eco Footprint or even the lives of the Sims compared to the NAP Feature. Sadly it feels like they would never expand them again :((

I have nothing against plantsims and new occults in general, but FOR LOVE OF THE NIGHT - the transformation must differ from one in sims 2. There, sims would transform by interacting with plants too much. I have a big garden and like tending to t. If there are ever pantsims - transformation must be more player controlled.

We already have plantsims. Get a Magic PlantSim Stump from the Outdoors/Outdoor Activities section of the Buy catalog and fill it with magic beans. You can get the magic beans from Patchy if you have Seasons. You can also get them by using testingCheats on and bb.showHiddenObjects and looking under Dining Room/Misc Decorations. That should work whether you have Seasons or not and it's much faster than collecting them from Patchy.

:( I really want them to fix plantsims and give them things to do and things to wearespecially want to grow some plant babies those were always funand they could have made them have some unique interaction with mother plant from sv too cause why not

There have already been twitter comments confirming they WILL NOT revisit/improve the lifestate.That’s a bummer. Wish it wasn’t a temporary effect.I don’t use them because I play rotational and it would feel so strange to see my sim turned back to normal when I was rotated away.

They are nothing but special moodlets that last for 5 Days. Clues that they are not Full Occult is that there are even no special plumbub in their head, nor the ability to create clubs filled with plantsims. There are no icons that represents them in CAS and you cannot even edit them in CAS. If you go edit a plantsim, they will turn into human form. Similar to Skeletons that are nothing but visual changes with minor additions. That is plantsims are now. They are not an occult.

Let's Talk About Plantsims. Why they are not Still an Occult in TS4?

Plantsims has been my favourite lifestate, ever since they were introduced in The Sims 2 Seasons. They were also the only reason I got University Life for sims 3.
It's sad if they won't ever become a real lifestate in sims 4. I've never even bothered to make one in sims 4 since they're so poorly made...

Yeah @TS1299 plantsims are one of my favorite occult/lifestate sims and I was disappointed they weren't really fleshed out in TS4.
I was looking forward to them to. I always played them.

@IObelle don't make one it will break your heart. I agree, I loved them in TS2 and was glad in TS3 they fleshed them out more and it was the only reason I got UNI too.

I am not an occult player, but I am sorry for you guys that you didn't get your real plant sims... :( You are so right, they could have easily come with one of the environment related packs (esp. with eco living tbh).

It's the same for everyone except people who like to play single sims collecting stuff and partying: gameplay is lacking severely at this point. It's been 6 years...

Six Years. Only Two are great. And most are filled with non occult but want to be occult creatures such as the skeleton

I totally get it and those two are not great for occult players who are also family players either because children and younger can't do magic or any vampire stuff...

I hope they‘ll give more love to plantsims. They had so many more abilities in the past.
