SO HUGE NEGATIVE FOR THIS PACK
It turns out that when you reap souls, they're culled from the game. Which means they stop appearing in the game. I figured it wasn't a big deal, since ghosts could come back and wander Ravenwood whenever. No harm, no foul. Yeah, it makes sense from a continuity stand-point, but would they really cull my sim like that without telling me?
Anyway, my sim reaped his grandpa's soul and he got culled. On top of that, it completely broke the family tree. Now he can't see any of his relatives from that side of the family, because the link is broken. He doesn't even have an icon. Now I have to get rid of an entire days' worth of time to reload an old file - if the game will even let me go back that far.
EDIT: I was able to reload an old save and get him back in the nick of time. I thought there was supposed to be a way for ghost to rekindle marriages when they're brought back? Guess there isn't.
I seriously hate culling in this game. I even got a mod to stop it. Why can't they at least let sims' details stay in the family tree, even when they're gone?
Big yikes: I just confirmed this in my own game. Who on earth thought this was good programming? I love this pack overall, but THIS--forcing us to cull our Sims without our permission or even giving us a warning in order to perform an active career--is not even a LITTLE bit okay. Please re-visit this, EA.
