TS4 Werewolves Gameplay Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

Im curious though, typical werewolf lore states that werewolves do not have a choice in their transformation. Will the same be said for our sims or will there be presumably be some ability that allows werewolf sims to control their transformation at will?

IRL lore varies WILDLY about werewolves.
Instead of a 5 page paper on it I present to you Red's take on it from Overly Sarcastic Productions (EVERYONE should subscribe to them, btw)

Not only are we getting a normal sized telescope but it’s useable and…potentially fatal.

Oooooooh... I really hope this is a throwback to The Sims 2. If I recall correctly, in TS2 using the telescope increased your chances of the lot being hit by a meteor, which could be fatal. (I lost one of my favorite sims this way.) However, you could also sell the meteor for $$$$$$. It would also be interesting if this time around, you could get new collectables from the meteor as an alternative to selling it. (I mean, I'd like both options.)

Yeeeeeeesss this gives me hope for a normal sized cupcake maker (like a KitchenAid type robot) and a normal sized microscope.

Also, back in the original story it was a werewolf that Little Red Riding Hood saw, not a regular wolf, which is part of the reason she didn't realize that it was a bad idea to tell where she was going - it was likely she knew/recognized from her village. He only changed later... the rest of the story varies pretty wildly from the source material as well. It wasn't until Charles Perrault (and later the Grimm brothers) that it became a wolf and the story became a lot more sanitized.

I'm so thrilled! I love the way the werewolves look, I love the build/buy, the CAS... everything! The world looks amazingly right up my alley, I'm so stoked. I've already pre-ordered!

Speaking of collectables, as always I hope we have some new harvestable plants/trees. We don't get them nearly as often as I would prefer (Tartosa still seems like a big missed opportunity in this respect), but the fact that we saw the older wolf pack doing some gardening gives me a small amount of hope.

Well I gotta say the werewolves look much better in the trailer now that you can see the length of their muzzles, they don't look so squished cat-faced to me now! So YAYY!!

But the one thing that caught my eye immediately was this:

Is that paintable ceilings or an awning?
