Most enjoyable occult for you?
Which occult do you enjoy most? I think aliens don’t get enough love from fans and the devs. I believe they need a good update.
Forum Discussion
Aliens: I thought they'd be fun, but they ended up annoying me so much that at one point I was about ready to drop the game altogether. But then I found out how to make them disappear from my game (through mods, of course).
Mermaids: I don't play them, and they too, don't exist in most of my saves. Not because I don't like them, exactly. I have a lot of respect for the various myths and folklore about sirens, selkies, and the like around the world, and in my opinion not a lot of media does them justice. A completely non-serious game like this one certainly isn't going to ever do that (for me).
Vampires: I don't even have the pack, mainly because of exactly the same sort of thoughts as I have for Mer-people.
Spellcasters: So far I've been able to enjoy spellcasters because I can treat them as humans who just happen to have some extra talents. If Maxis and/or EA had tried to make them more purely magical kinds of creatures or caricatures with cackling hook-nosed hags with warts, they probably would've fallen victim to the same thoughts I have about Mer-peeps and Vampires.
Plantsims: They're... green. Yeah, that's all I've got.
