I'm hoping this means that there is a lot to explore and do around the world.

I hope the tunnels aren't just rabbit-hole type things. Same goes for the moonflower cave thing atop the pile of rocks. I would imagine they probably are, though. I just want sims to be able to physically be in such places, especially so that I can get some screenshots in those locations. You know, for science. :wink:

I thought the tunnels were just the werewolves being able to burrow their way into the ground. Would be lovely if we get actual underground tunnels.

You may be right. Things have moved so quickly in the past couple of days that it's quite likely I've missed seeing something about that!

It will be interesting to see how people feel about this one, 1 neighborhood and 5 lots is not a lot. They say that they have tried to make the neighborhood very big so it will not feel like an issue but I'm not sure how well that is going look or run. I hope that they spent time optimizing routing so sims are spawning a lot and hanging around at certain spots, otherwise I think it will feel pretty empty.

There are also supposedly two werewolf packs hanging around...uh...on 5 lots, which means that they need somewhere to live. So yeah...I'm skeptical.

The design of the world is kinda nice, I would have liked to play a lumberjack in that world.

That's like going to one of those fancy restaurants that serve tiny portions, but they serve it with a magnifying glass to make you think it's a regular meal. It's still tiny.

I'm staying open-minded about using it, and I will admit it looks gorgeous. I'll make up my mind when I see it in front of me.

It’s like Forgotten Hollow. But with werewolves! ?

But for me, if it has a better set up then Forgotten Hollow where the lots are reasonably spaced out and not clumped together I can work with it. But if not, just firing up a new file and playing in Windenburg or Hanford-On-Bagley with occasional visits to Moonwood.

Questions:

What is the moon cycle entail?

Is it reserved for this world only?

Is it always a full moon in this world?

Do different moons have different affects for any Sim in this world (besides full moon)?

How many vacant lots or are they all occupied by premades?

Are the tunnels just a spot to teleport?

Is there a portal to enter this world like the secret worlds or the world for spellcasters?

Is there a leader of the pack in this world?

Is the world like the 'island' in WB? That would be nice since there would be a lot of room to run in that part of the world.

More later.

Another one, I would like the devs to talk about how they came up with the name for the world since it's so closely related to Moonwood in D&D. That's an interesting concept.


@Catloverplayer, I'm excited to see the high grass and or bush in the phone pic it may already been in game but reminds me of the high grass in TS3's junkyard lot. I don't have all packs so that is the first thing I see in the picture, lol, instead of a location/trailer.

We don't yet have many details about the lunar cycle, but SimGurus have confirmed that the cycles will be seen in all worlds.

@VeeDub, thank you! That's one of them answered!
