Im missing 5 packs atm: Tiny Living, Discover University, Realm of Magic, Moschino and Strangerville.Im willing to get a few more. I may make a bundle or buy one or two but im still deciding which one(s). Just to contextualize, im a legacy player, so family play is essential to me, and i also like occults and crazyness. What do you recommend?

going by you like occults then the only one there i would suggest is Realm of Magic , but even that has a pretty short shelf life , Once you have got a sim to the top of the skill there's not a lot to keep it interesting or make you want to do it over and over

I completely agree with @julienrob2004 about the short shelf life with ROM. I don't get the same enjoyment from the TS4 Spellcasters as I did from their TS3 counterparts. If you do decide on this pack, just keep in mind that hybrids are very glitchy and have a ton of issues. I use the MCCC mod and have it set up to where occults can't have children with different occult types to avoid a ton of issues.

The only places the Spellcasters will have their duels at is in the magical realm. If your sim sees them in any of the other towns, they won't be acting any differently than the other nonmagical sims. Compaired to Sims 3, the TS4 spellcasters are much more low key.

I really like Strangerville I wish it was longer ...

thanks for your imput @julienrob2004 and @LaBlue0314 . How are your feelings about Strangerville? This one's story i guess has a shelf life even shorter... but what about after the story?

@LaBlue0314 i like very much the witches in sims 3. What i like more is to play a low profile witch. All the duel things that i've read about RoM doesn't captivate me... is it possible to play a low profile witch on RoM? And how does the bloodlines work? I guess making it even easier... :(

Thank you @LaBlue0314 . By now i have read a lot of guides (carl's included) and reviews in Youtube. I'm on my "final stage" :lol: now i'm looking for some insight from regular players.

@jimbbq how do you see the pack after the mistery? I think i will like the story cause it seems that it is somehow related to Stranger things :lol: ...but as it is always the same story, i'm more concerned about how do you see it besides the story...?
