Back in the Spring 2020 survey, the team revealed some ideas they had for upcoming worlds:-Brazilian Beach Town-South African City-Spanish City-Korean City-Swiss Mountain Town-Chinese Countryside-Scottish Highlands-Italian Vineyards-Greek Islands (I think this + Italian Vineyards became Tartosa) -Costa Rican RainforestIf we are indeed getting a werewolf pack, what type of world is most likely? I'm thinking Scottish Highlands or a Spanish/South African City. I am really hoping they don't go for a small town America vibe because that feels so 2009.

Oh im thinking maybe Scottish highlands? I'm not sure what they look like though.

We may not get one at all. Just cause werewolves strike me as tying in a lot with both Glimmer Brook, and Granite Falls (maybe being bit while camping). But I of course hope we do. I would love a Highlands world. I always gravitate towards mountains and greenery so..An urban environment doesn't really go with werewolves, so I don't think we will get it. But just on the topic of worlds, I would really like another city based world with sky-rises, and more apartments.

I'd usually associate werewolves with bleak wilderness settings, so Scotland fits most. I'm expecting another generic forest-y world but hoping for something a bit more interesting. The trailer did show a downtown looking area though so it may be more of a downtown world instead

Honestly think many of these were cut out-Brazilian Beach Town-Italian Vineyards-Greek Islands-Spanish city^ I feel like these ideas were ousted by tartosa and that carnival kit thing like i think they were just thinking up beach mediterranean vibes and mashed it all together-Swiss Mountain Town-Chinese Countryside-Scottish Highlands^ honestly cannot remember if this was before snowy escape so if it was that might have wiped out the asian theme and mountains with bang bang both at oncealso they added chinese items to mws and i just don't see them doing whole chinese world right after that with pack like this idkalso i feel like " countryside" and "highlands" were also probably wiped out by doing henford instead maybelike i feel like they were wondering where to set the country pack with these optionsthough i would love ancient chinese world-Costa Rican Rainforest-South African City-Korean City^ honestly I don't think any of these howl wolf to me :sweat_smile: unless we are talking about... korean boy bands i suppose :sweat_smile: but also kind of meh with another woodland world cause i really could just use granite falls so yeah idki guess they might have made mini city block with dark alleys or somewhat dead town though the way they did in ts3 like idk i feel like considering build/buy items that would fit in with werewolf pack maybe something like that with idk cave and hill or something

Lots of green, often overcast, damp, it rains a LOT. There are tons of creeks flowing down the mountains, and the landscape has wild flowers and purple thistle (the national flower) in many places. Also there are highland cows which is the best thing ever.

What sort of world do you think we're getting with the Game Pack?

Looks like there will be a woody area as expected.. Looks a bit industrial? Maybe a pine farm?

Just as an update: Speculation has now moved away from from a French or French inspired world, but rather now leaning towards an American inspired world that has Scandinavian influence such as Minnesota. Due to the "Take a dip in Lake Lunvik" hint. If not a fully Scandinavian inspired world, anyway. :)

I have seen that speculation but I don't personally understand it. I get why people feel it may be Scandinavian, but then why wouldn't it just be based on the actual Scandinavian region of the world? It seems like people were initially focused on the Pacific Coast due to lumber mills and the red woods, which made sense, but when the Scandinavian thing popped up it just got mashed into the preexisting speculation of an American environment. But mills aren't American.

I tend to think they are going to be pulling from several places with good werewolf lore and mixing those elements together. If that be the case it would make sense if we see elements from France, through Germany, up into Norway (Basically Western Europe)..

Someone in another thread joked about the new world being based on Minnesota and people just jumped on it.

I don't think it was a joke. There are a lot of people of Scandinavian descent in Minnesota, more than anywhere outside of Scandinavia itself. A lake with a Norse name is something you might find there (they do have over 10k lakes, after all... and lots of forest... and a basketball team named Timberwolves)

It may make some sense but if you go to the other thread you will see that the person who first mentioned Minnesota said that they were joking at the time. And why give us Minnesota when they could give us Norway.

I'm not going to presume the reasons for their creative decisions. I am just putting together all the information we have and seeing what seems most likely based on that. The main reason I am leaning towards Minnesota over Norway is the name Moonwood Mill. When they wanted a South Pacific island world, we didn't get Coral Cay or something, we got Sulani. We didn't get Snowy Mountain for Japanese Snowy Escape, we got Mount Komorebi. When they took us to France, it wasn't Golden Fields, it was Champs les Sims.

I was just responding to someone who wanted to know where people were getting Minnesota from.

It definitely has that woodsy vibe as well as lakes, and cliffs. Everything I imagined and more. Also, I think there may be a cave on top of the cliff?

It looks very cool from the preview but I hope it has more lots than Forgotten Hollow did. I can't wait to see the trailer!

Yes, some sort of lair or cave for sure, the real question is if it is a woohoo spot lol

I vote yes. Wait, it wasn't a poll? That's ok, I still vote yes. :sunglasses:

Ahaha, not going to lie.. I am definitely looking forward to a new woohoo spot. And a secluded cave? Sounds perfect.

It'd be hilarious though if there's a (non-visible) wolf living there though and your Sims can get a tense buff from hearing wolf noises.

Okay, I'm mainly kidding about that last bit. :smiley:
