Life and Death Negative thread

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.

In term of design, Maxis didn't think about the resurrection of NPC ghosts wearing ghost outfits.

For example Mr. Warez

LOL 😂!  Fresh from death and about to get some!

It's the boxers, female sims love the bike short version.

I think this is well-worded.  I've been through much of the same things (lost my mom when I was 9 and my dad when I was 19), however with 40 years old closer than 35 now, I'm definitely at a different stage of the process.  I'm also not usually one for supernatural things, and yet I find this pack to be well-done, IF it's in your style.  There's no way I would be playing that content fresh with grief, and it's for that same reason that I currently don't play a family with pets-- I lost one recently and the grief of losing her is still too fresh for me.  So is it for everyone?  Absolutely not.  But if they continue to, as you eloquently worded it, balance different themes and types of packs, then this is just another thing they've added to optionally add.  The modular nature of the game and the packs one chooses to own/install is one of the beautiful things about it.

This is hilarious. Thanks for sharing! I'm now curious about how some of the other NPC ghosts will be dressed when resurrected. 

LOL! 😂 I am real and this meat is rancid...uh oh.. 🤭This is a food critique 👀

edit: That one Backfired! LOL! 😂🤪😮

Karamazov123Thanks for flagging this! If I got this pack it wouldn't be for the Reaper career (I'm more interested in grief and bucket lists and such), but this is absolutely wild and so not okay! They need to offer a toggle in Game Options to turn it off, at the very least. 

coloncocon  It culls Sims without you, too?! This is wild, and a very strong "no" for me for this pack. I wouldn't check Other Households nearly enough. I already stress over Neighbourhood Stories ("off" isn't always effective?!) and Aging. 

For me, the culling happened before the Life & Death Pack. It might be related to the limited population.

"Neighbourhood Stories" Toggle-off is 100% effective to me. I disable it for every household so I can say that. If there is any change, it might be another function.

By the way, MCCC mod can completely disable culling, so I don't worry much. Just not sure to add more population.

My only complaint after playing for a couple days - and not being that much into souls and grims, is the blinking/spinning and annoying new icon in CAS suggesting that every sim I create must be a ghost or other occult. I really hope this blinking will be gone shortly, before it drives me nuts...
