I noticed that a lot of people have strong opinions on this topic, and though I don't know if there a thread on this already or not, I wanted to start one if not.My opinion is that they did the best the could while still making the werewolves fit into the normal sim range of proportions. I do think they look a little derpy, with those short snouts and non-digitigrade legs, but the alternative of waiting 4 more months for the pack as every kissing or walking animation is updated for werewolves would probably have been worse.What do you think?🐺🌕

Too cartoonish for my tastes, but its fine. I find they look better in motion vs standalone screenshots.

I am not a huge fan of how they look, but I will do my best to make them more beastly and terrifying.

I like them a lot. I think they fit in perfectly with the cartoony aesthetic of Sims 4. I did not expect them to change their leg shape. I didn't want them to be ugly, and it looks like we can do quite a bit of customization, so they can be bulky or slim. I'm sure there will be plenty of things we can do to make their faces more or less terrifying. The droopy ear is a good touch, and we can even give them a nose ring or a small earring. It looks like their scars will still show on the animal form, and judging by a screenshot I saw, they can be naked and not be pixilated.

Couldn't agree with you more, OP. They're not exactly what I was hoping for, but to some degree I do understand there were certain limitations in place. And considering that, I actually really like how they look! Yes they're a little bit goofy, but that won't be out of place in my save ?

I completely understand why they chose the style they did, and I won't complain because I didn't expect anything very different. I did hope, of course, but that's not quite the same thing. ;) I can't say I like the style, but I don't hate it, either. I think I can make it work for my story purposes. Well, most of them, anyway. And I'm sure CC will eventually come around to help with at least some amount of further customization.

I've seen people mention the appearance reminds them of Cats musical - but I personally liked the look of the cats, so yeah I like the werewolves too :*

I like them though yeah tails and more scary vibe would have been lovely

but I think since they're apparently doing the paint your own thing? we might be able to make them look somewhat more spooky with some paint paint brush brush

aand i might also get me some werefoxes with this even if they call them werewolves so thats neat

also I'm glad they don't for example all have same body shape fur colors or whatever so theres that

i think it would have been nice to have some more rough/bushy fur options though maybe thats the thing that bothers me they're all very neat looking

I'm not an occult player, if I will buy this pack it will be just to play around with it so it's not a huge deal but...

No, I do not like what they look like. When I saw the cover I thought that was just because of the art style but when I saw the trailer... I think they look very cartoony. I do not think of werewolves when I see them. I think of anthropomorphic animals.

The pictures that people on twitter have posted showing werewolves dressing up in suits and sunglasses doesn't help. So right now I hope that there is some way you can get them to look more like wolves.

As others have said, they aren't exactly what I was picturing/hoping for but I am quite happy with how they look for the most part. They fit in with the in-game graphics perfectly and between painting their fur, the scars, and making use of the sliders I feel we'll be able to create some pretty cool and somewhat creepy looking werewolves. It will just take a little bit of creativity. I'm definitely more in favor of them after seeing the trailer today than I was with just the cover art yesterday. And even then, I was neutral leaning towards favorable. So all in all... they're not all that bad.

It's the legs for me and the feet, too human. But when thinking back to the sims3 werewolves these new ones are a vast improvement, because they were just hideous.

Compared to the previous games, this version of werewolves is so much better. At least you can actually make good looking werewolves lol. There are some things that could be better, like the legs, face shape, and body shape. But if you think about it, every other life state has basically been a sim but with different eyes, ears, scars, and other small things. So they didn't really need to reanimate facial expressions and etc. So I think the fact that they actually made the wolf form actually look wolf like instead of just putting body hair on sims is applaudable.

And like other ppl mentioned there are limitations to how they can make them so I think that's the main reason they turned out the way they did.

I know a lot of ppl want them to look more scary and I hope it's possible when editing them in cas.

Too cuddly and tame for my taste, but I'm open to using cc, so I'm good. What I've seen of the animations (running on all fours, marking territory and some occult glow on the trailer sim's arm, need to re-watch to make sense of that) has already won me over.

I think that's the best you can do with the Sims 4 engine unless you literally turn them into wolves (like the stray in Sims 2 that could turn people into werewolves). But it is a very good "best", I am more than satisfied, as someone who loathed the Sims 3 weres (other than as a homage to the wolfman movies).

That said two things need to be pointed out:
1. The "lycan legs" people want would be WAY too much to animate. Seriously. Besides no werewolf in older games had those anyway.
2. "Fursona"... not more than the vampires look like cosplayers.

Yikes. That is all.

Alright, so you know those people who'll accept anything because (in their words) it's either "better than something prior" or "better than nothing"? I'm not one of those people. I'm happy for those who want 1/100th of the "fursona" possibilities in The Sims, but at face value, this is a "yikes" from me. Again, just a first impression.

Can't say I'm mad at the sheer meme material, though.
