Huh a portal. Maybe there is a Harry Potter situation where a civilized occult society lives in secret from normal sims.
Also the new world is in a wooded area or atleast a swamp.....if the fantasy pack takes place in a swamp please don't tell me they referenced what I think they referenced
What is it that they "referenced"?
Also, that looks like Willow Creek to me :p Idk. Maybe we are going to have 2 worlds? One normal where the portal is, and the magic one the portal leads to?
The portal might BE in Willow Creek (or maybe you can place it wherever?) but the other world might look totally different.
I don't think so? The round piece beneath the portal is new.- I know it's not (because I've been there) but it would be kinda fun if they put the portal in that hidden glade in Willow creek.
But changing a bit of the non-lot Willow creek to have the portal seems like something that could be patched in as part of the expansion pack. Or even as part of the pre-release general patch. - I'm kind of concerned cause this is pretty darn soon after IP, so I really hope that's enough development time. orz.

It's been confirmed, no Werewolves & only a tiny Village like Forgotten Hollow. Hopefully, the Magic Portal will take a sim household into a "Whole New World" like the Enchanted Forest in "Once Upon A Time" & that the sims can actually live there.
How do you know this? Where was it confirmed?
Only thing confirmed is no werewolves and it’s a world similar like Forgotten Hollow with a surprise, a simguru said it’s something never seen before in the sims. It hasn’t been said it’s a “tiny village”No word on number of lots or anything regarding the world
Edit: not confirmed no werewolves, pictures just do no show a werewolve transformation
Thanks! I am not particularly bothered by the new world being only the size of Forgotten Hollow; I like that world a lot. Just like I only have a few vampire families I don't plan to have that many magic practitioners in any particular save. And even the original Magic Town was not very big. I believe there were only 5 or 6 community lots there, and just 3 lots in Creepy Hollow (the residential area of Magic Town).
yeah tbh I'd love a small world as long as it has lots of things to do and there is no fx houses I'm not fussed about how many lots we get just hope it has some small/medium size lots because i hate trying to fill big ones"Idontrcall;c-17206501" wrote:
I love New Orleans, too.
I like swamp witches, I usually had one in Twinbrook in Sims 3. And a swampy area would mesh well with that concept art that has been floating around for years (the one with the old hut).
Also, someone asked if a portal would be placed in every world. I don't think that's necessary since all worlds are combined in Sims 4. My guess, however, is that it would be placed in the new world.
Very excited for this & more information.
I wonder if the portal will be available in the Debug catalog so people could place them in other worlds, for example hide one in the back portion of the big park in Willow Creek."stilljustme2;c-17207266" wrote:

I'd imagine it would be? It depends on what the portal is actually used for I guess. If the portal itself is required for magic in the first place then they'd probably put it in Debug mode so that sims over every world could have access to one.
Are other entrances to secret locations available in Debug mode? I haven't looked in so long."Mariefoxprice83;c-17206279" wrote:

Hopefully it means that you can send a sim to the world and thus "opt in" to magical things but if you don't, you can maintain a realistic game.
I also hope they bring back the occult toggles in the options as well. Even with MCCC my game will insist on generating vampires and aliens that I have to keep deleting from realistic saves.
Looking forward to the trailer - usually, I don't bother with them (I'd rather read a description than watch something), but I have so many questions about this pack! I'm hoping we won't get werewolves, or that you'll have to do something out of the ordinary to generate them. (Mermaids have worked out nicely in IL - I still haven't seen one, as far as I know. They're much less annoying than the aliens in GTW - you should be able to pursue a career or use the observatory without worrying about your Sim being abducted or the game generating NPC aliens.)
Anyway, I do want witches (I don't consider them to be an 'occult' because they actually exist), so I'm hoping I won't have to deal with other occults in order to get them. (Also, I'd rather they concentrated on making witches awesome than making witches and werewolves and whatever that are just 'ok'.)
Since SimGuruHouts sort of apologised for the 'werewolfish' pics, that might indicate they're not in the pack, and he didn't want werewolf fans getting their hopes up? (Sorry, I'm being totally selfish here, but I'm still jealous of all the BB items in the Vampire pack that I can't have without the actual vampires.)"GracieO312;c-17206612" wrote:
