Paranormal Pack Pros and Cons in your opinion?

Most likely going to get the new pack but not necessarily going to drop my main household to play a haunted house style one. What are the pros and cons of the new paranormal pack in your opinion so far after playing?

  • Ok, here goes mine
    Pros: it was implemented well (gameplay stays on lot type)
    It adds some challenge without being frustrating
    CAS and build/buy are nice, and can be used for other purposes
    It mixes great with the other occult packs + spooky stuff
    Can be switched on and off during play giving control to the player

    Cons: I can see it being repetitive
    A bit too cute not so much scary
    Bonehilda could have been better (she’s just a sim in costume & doesn't help much)
    The “scary” ghost is rather lackluster IMO
  • i havent even got the pack yet
    (will eventually)

    but one major con:

    they didnt add fortune telling options to that crystal ball when all it would have taken was to slap on the good old future cube interactions with new seance and group seance animations and few moodlets or texts and badumts we would have fortune telling as well and i could stop asking for it and i would get about 90% more use out of this pack but naaah let's totally miss this golden opportunity

    yes i know its small detail thing and i could just pretend that they are telling futures when they commune with spirits or whatever

    but im so frustrated at packs always missing on small things like this and making me sad for what could have been
  • haven't played much but my complaints so far is that the pack should've been an ep with a lot more features, the theme has a lot of potential :( another complaint is that it seems you can only make residential haunted houses but no any other lot type nor apartments.
  • I own every pack but will not buy the paranormal pack. Does anyone know how to get rid of the scared emotion for those that don't have or want the paranormal play without having to use a mod? Is there a cheat code? I tried to search for one but only found a suggestion to purchase the brave trait potion. I don't want to reduce the scared emotion--I want to get rid of it.
  • Pro: It's a paranormal pack with features that I really wanted.

    Cons: It doesn't do my dry cleaning.

    You can't get rid of the scares emotion. It's part of the base game.
  • I haven't done much with it yet since I got it yesterday, but my biggest pro is the CAS/build mode stuff! I love it all!


    One con I can think of is that sims can't die of fear - why add a new emotion and have emotional deaths already in place in the game, but not let there be a chance that sims die from fear?

    You could always use UI Cheats and right click the emotion away. It's pretty handy for other things, too.
