Forum Discussion
I voted "Very Interested" on just about everything to all the new ideas. I wish I could've put down all my ideas for improvements such as having an option to speed up or slow down time itself (not to be confused with fast forward or stopping the game to a pause). That way we don't have to take 8 sim hours just to enjoy what should be a 1 or 2 hour get together with friends.
I wish I could've selected more than three packs to be improved on too because I have ideas for several of them. I picked Cats & Dogs as I would like to see things such as hiring a pet sitter to check on the needs of a sim's pet(s) while that sim is off to work or even hanging out at another lot. Hiring a dog walker for dog owners; allowing children to be able to walk dogs; & the ability to walk two dogs at once.
Chose Get To Work because I think there's potential for more careers to be played instead of just being a rabbit hole (though obviously the option to Send Alone should still be there). I think the Culinary career could definitely be played out, and I think it would be fun to play the Criminal and Secret Agent careers since we can already play the Detective Career. Also, it wouldn't hurt to clean up any and all bugs that affect gameplay in Get To Work.
Finally, I chose Vampires to be worked on because I think an option to fine tune how often or little vampire break ins would be nice. So for those who like to have a realistic save with little to no involvement of supernatural sims, they could turn vampire break ins all the way down to "None." Meanwhile, those who love their fantasy lore can turn it all the way up to "Max," and those who just like to play and let random things happen can have a "Medium" setting. Ditto this for the Get To Work pack as well when it comes to alien abductions and allowing us to tune how often or rarely (or never) a sim gets impregnated by an alien abduction.
And who doesn't love to have more traits, aspirations, etc.? I'm thinking there could be an aspiration dealing with Vampires specifically: "Vampire Friend." Things to do can include building up the Vampire Lore skill; introducing yourself to vampire sims; becoming good friends with vampire sims; giving plasma packs, wolfsbane, etc. as gifts to vampires, and anything else I haven't thought of. Then the reward trait for completing this aspiration could be something along the lines of "Friend of the Vampires," wherein you never have to worry about vampires breaking in to your residence and using their powers on you and/or drinking from you.
