SimGuruGrant's Supernatural Poll

Why does it have to be werewolves? Why not shapeshifters? Shapeshifters are more interesting and would make for a more interesting and never seen before supernatural life state. Sims could shapeshift into a werewolf, but they could also shapeshift into a mythological creature made of pure fantasy or horror. We could even get a Shapeshifter CAS where they have their mortal form and then transform into their truest supernatural form.

Being able to transform into any kind of creature just isn't realistic because it would require too many new assets. They'd also need to be more fleshed out than just "can turn into a weird form". The werewolves in TS3 had more going on like packs, the lunar cycle and wolf-like behaviours, so you'd need to give Shapeshifters more to work with than just changing into a different from, which both aliens and Vampires already do.

I would be up for seeing sims with animal traits expressed in a different way than Werewolves. Something like Kitsunes could be really cool, and has the potential to be something completely new and different.

Honestly I'd rather have anything than Witches, who I've always found the most bland due to looking no different to a regular sim. For me the most enjoyable part of occult sims is their unique, unusual appearances and playing with genetics to produce really cool looking children.
