Hello! This post is more for occult players. I Wanted to know if anyone would be interested in having a mermaid “add on” pack based on more tails , hairstyles , tops , furniture & possibly more powers/skill tree to them & even a secret world or finally give us a underwater pack. I just feel like mermaids are lacking compare to the other occult’s & mermaids are my absolute favorite . I believe they should have never introduced them in the island living & gave them their own pack like most of the other occult’s.

As much as I love Island Living, why can't they just add these things to IL itself? Mermaids don't make sense on their own without IL, and having another DLC for DLC pack feels kind of exploitative, like how MFPS was. After all, we paid 20 to 40 dollars for an expansion pack. Shouldn't we get our money's worth?I know we always say "Oh it's because EA is greedy", but it's gotten so bad that we're conditioned to think that paying more money to expand an expansion pack is acceptable. Instead of just expecting to get $40's worth of content from the start for a pack that costs that much. It's kind of sad

I made this when Island Living first came out and it makes me cry everytime I look at it...https://i.imgur.com/BPrPZ0A.jpg:cry:

They are already in IL so that's that. I don't think they should re-sell them to us in another pack. I think they should go back and re-work mermaids (and aliens) and give them a bit of a talent tree like they did with vampires and spellcasters. It doesn't have to be as expansive as those in their own dedicated packs, but they should have a little more than what they were given.

Why not mermaids? They could have an underwater place where they could be mermaids all the time, search for discarded forks and pearls and do other mermaid things.

DLC for DLC is a shady idea and with how well MFPS went... they really shouldn't attempt that again. ;)

I'd like improvements to come in a free patch for Island Living.
Children, and maybe even toddlers, should get fins when in water.
I mean, children can swim just as much as teens-elders, so it's just dumb that they don't have fins!

Honestly and even though I have a more realistic style of gameplay I did play with mermaids, and I think they’re lacking. Basically all they can do is swim (not underwater), call other mermaids and dolphins, talk to fish and drown sims.

I would have liked underwater lots and swimming underwater. Now an entire GP would be a bit too much I guess.

It's time for an Underwater Atlantis World for Merfolks to live in.

Instead of giving us a mermaid pack, I wish they would give us a fully fleshed out vacation pack with underwater lots that our mermaids and other Sims could dive in, like Island paradise had. I know we have Island living already, but I don't consider that a vacation pack. As for updates to mermaids themselves, any updates should be added into a patch for the Island living expansion pack, not something that we have to pay extra for. Honestly underwater lots should be added in that way as well, but I hold no hopes they would ever do that.

Like... if they enhance them through another pack amongst other features, the way TS3 did with vampires, I'm down; otherwise nope.
Mermaids have never been the more 'fleshed-out' supernatural. They probably 'scale' at 3 in that regards.
