I have never "gotten" the whole vampire thing, so Spellcasters it is. Even in previous Sims games, vampires didn't appeal to me. In TS2 it was great because they didn't start "vamping" people unless you got involved and made them start. In TS3 they were pretty much part of Bridgeport, but I didn't play them. I was also happy when we were able to toggle occults off/on. That way, people who wanted to play them could, and those who didn't want to play them could still enjoy the worlds, the build/buy stuff, and even the CAS items. Options are a glorious thing.
