Would You Like More Occults??

I'd only say yes if the new occults were more "fleshed" out like vampires. If they're just in the game for "aesthetics", it'd be a hard no for me. Nothing worse than having an occult with minimal gameplay options.

I love playing families, but I also love occult families.

I'm waiting on werewolves

The Sims never claimed it was a "realistic" life simulator. :/
If I want to play the life of a celebrity vampire crime boss who owns a restaurant and is married to a black widow mermaid who paints portraits for a living, the game will let me do that.

I never claimed Sims branded itself to be ultra-realistic, but anyone can see it still needs some quality of life improvements with the life stages.

i play with occults but i include them on realistic gameplay, i don't understand this division between realistic and occult players. the Sims have always included "fantasy" on their games, avoiding it is avoiding part of what makes the franchise.
well this is my opinion but really this whole vs thing is quite annoying :/

It's not really an us vs them thing to me either. I just want more realistic stuff.

I don't think it is us vs them either for occult vs. realistic play. However, some occult things seemed to be toned down after people complained about them.
I just like the occults, and that actually how I got into the Sims, with Sims 2 being my first series for the franchise. I would just love to see the occult mixed in kind of like how they did it with the Sims 2, where you seek out the occults and became a member depending on the pack you had.

Yup I'd rather have you especially go out the way to interact with them or keep them in their own dlc alltogether.

Sims 3 had an entire pack dedicated to the supernatural, with the exception of Vampires who appeared in that pack and another pack. It gave the option to the player whether to pick up the pack our not. It is one of the first packs I got when I bought Sims 3.

Sims 3 had one pack dedicated to occults but they were also present in every other pack. Aliens in seasons, plantsims in university, robots in ambitions and into the future, genies in showtime, ..... I wasn't very active in the community during the sims 3 era so I am wondering were people already beginning to complain about occults during the sims 3 era. Or did toggles keep everyone happy?

I am all for choice in the sims. I liked the toggles in sims 3 so I could pick and choose which occults to play with. I hope occults come with a toggle or in a dedicated pack so people can play them fully (not nerfed) or not at all.

Even as someone who doesn’t play I oocults often the game does need more variety for those who do. The only occult I have enjoyed playing (after mermaids in sims 4) were fairies in sims 3. For those who would like werewolves I hope a gamepack for them comes out. We also need ghosts added to cas as well.

Maybe. I would not mind if more occults were added to the game. I enjoy playing with certain occults (spellcasters/witches have always been my favorite), but if the Sims 4 does add more occults, I hope that they are fully fleshed out, and that they come with a toggle system because while I enjoy playing with occults, I would not necessarily want them in every world or neighborhood.

I'd be interested in fairies, superheroes/supervillains, and possibly werewolves.

But what I really want is a livable multi-lot underwater world for the mermaids and a livable multi-lot other planet world for the aliens. But I have no hope that something like that would ever be added.

Also, for the Sims 2 thing, I mentioned it, because it kept most players kind of happy.

Yes I did like supernatural was in it's own thing. Annoyed it was in nightlife pack (what does that have to do with vampires???) but so grateful for toggles. Witches in TS2 though are annoying, i need to find a mod to push them out because they always show up on my lots lol.

The witches could be annoying, but it was kind of fun trying to befriend them to either become a good witch or evil witch. You could then visit an alternate world with your Sim.
Vampires were kind of weird for being in Nightlife, but in a way made sense, because in some media vampires hung out in night clubs. In the movie Blade, Blade fought a bunch a vampires in a night club. So, maybe since Nightlife had clubs, they were paying homage to it?
I just king of hope we get the previous occults back, and add new ones in.

To me it's only logical, if you have vampires and witches, you have to have werewolves and I prefer elves to fairies...the Legolas kind. :D There are sooo many more occults to choose from but those are probably my favorites. Loved weres in Sims 3!

I always welcome new gameplay. I love my spellcasters!
