The problem is, they don't have a middle. It is either "none or extreme". It would start out extreme, people complained, they switched if off.
Vampires: My sim was bitten and then had the 18 hour moodlet. When that wore off, they came at her again. Single mom with a baby. I thought the social worker would take the baby away because Vlad left without changing the dirty diaper :D . I now have that pack uninstalled. They have since put "no trespassing" options on the door, but I am not interested in playing with Vampires anymore.
Ghosts: It bothered me that as the game went on and the sims aged, the town would be full of ghost. Couldn't play the Dr. Career in GTW because the whole staff were ghosts. The bouncers, mixologist, DJ, etc became ghost. I play the game till the townies/pre-mades start becoming ghost, then I delete and start new. I want my sims and the town to age, but they need to be gone when they die, not ghosts.
Murphy Beds: Seems they were killing sims pretty often. Don't know, I steered clear of the TL combo bed. I suppose they toned that down?
Aliens: My sim was abducted quite a few times, came back pregnant about every time too. Guess they toned that down also according to some threads?
I didn't buy the new Spooky pack because I heard they are cute, and they only show up in if the lot has the spooky trait to it? Well, I will guess that when the next patch comes out, it will break that and those cute little ghosts will be everywhere :D
I wouldn't mind it so much if there was an in-between switch they could toggle on their end. But I don't see toggles coming for us to decide that in our own game.
