Life and Death Negative thread

Good news! The bug isn't in the game in the final game! Awesome!

No seasons in the world is definitely a big downside. I can kinda understand that for the spooky neighbourhood where there is a very special atmosphere. But the rest of the world should definitely have normal weather. I am disappointed about the lack of weather. 

The sims team focuses so heavily on linking worlds to real life countries and/or regions. It makes no sense to say this is Romania and not having snow in the winter. 

Exactly.

For me, it's not quite a negative, but I'm certainly concerned over how LnD will work with vampires... 

I mean, I've been playing vampires mostly for the past 6-7 years now, rarely have I gone back to "normal" sims. Perhaps this will give more incentive to play the normal sim.

Still, my negative overall about this pack is that again kinda touches the darker spiritual flavors which I dislike.

Even tropical parts of the world experience all four seasons

puguita8  Not true. The tropics only have two seasons: rainy season and dry season.

BissenNessYou are correct that according to the Koppen Climate classification it is identified as only having two. But just to make a point that people living in the tropics notice the change in climate for all 4 seasons. I know because our Island winters are my favorite :)

I'm interested in knowing how vampires fit into this new world and EP as well.

I play all lifeforms in the sims 4. I mostly enjoy playing occults that love recipe's and cooking!

My biggest complaint is once again how many more bugs it has added to the game , EA still cannot be bothered doing a peoper play test as i came across a lot within my first days play without even trying to find them , Ea say sims 4 is going to go on and on , but the way the bugs are building up it will die the death sooner rather than later . Months now where EA cannot even bother to fix bugs with dates or the knitting but constantly churn out fixes for hairs that have messed up 

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?

Yep. I rotationally play and one of my families has a mother and the storyline is what her son will do to bring her back from death. Well fast forward, playing new pack, new family and one of my assignments  was to go collect a bunch of ghosts that were causing chaos. One of the ghosts was this families mother.  I luckily saved, collected her soul, released it into the portal. Then left without saving and went into the other family and yep..... she was gone. I was able to quit without saving and bring her back. She's still completely broken from her urn but I'm wondering if that happened with the new pack, she was an unplayable ghost and I always just had her son call her from the urn but now I can't do that at all.  Sooo yay she exists but boo because I still am unsure how her son is supposed to call her forth now.
