Witches or Mermaids?

«13
Before I go straight to the point, sorry I've been posting hella' crazy on forums about supernaturals I can't help myself sorry if you've seen me everywhere

anyway:

What would you like to see in the sims 4? A witch related pack, or a mermaid pack?

I, myself would really love a mermaid pack, I feel like witches wouldn't be too much fun cause they'd basically just be vampires but a lil' different, I'm not saying EA can constantly come out with a new mechanic for a new life state, But I hope mermaids come out before witches cause they'd be more interesting in my opinion, It'd be cool if mermaids got some kind of perks that would only affect them underwater.

    I'd like both and hope they'll include mermaids in an island pack that includes swimmable beaches!

    But I think they'll do witches first since they won the life state poll by SimGuruGrant

    Witches. Without a doubt.

    Witches are my second favorite (after vampires) but if mermaids were "fleshed" out like vampires and not just sims that are half man, half fish, then I'd be okay with mermaids.

    Witches. I'm not interested in mermaids at all, though I'd still give them a shot if we had them.

    Witches, but actually I want a variety of spellcasters and different types of magic. I have a thread going over in the ideas section with bunch of suggestions in it.

    Normally I don't care much for mermaids but if they gave them a little more grit and detail, I could like them. I'd like to see them have a Siren song and the ability to daze Sims and cause them to drown or enslave them or sink their boats. It would be cool if they could have sharp teeth and some creepy options and varieties in CAS like tentacles and jagged fins, as well as beautiful and colorful selections. They should be able to eat raw fish and have ocean pets that they command and be able to gather types of shells and seaweed and rocks to decorate their underwater homes with and create new objects. They should also be able to enchant themselves to walk on land for a limited time and imbue Sims to temporarily breathe underwater and teach them to improve their swimming. They should have giant oyster beds and kelp curtains and coral mazes and underwater fissures that they could utilize. I'd like to see them make use of fish netting and sea glass and sunken ships. Maybe they could even make a Sim rich by leading them to a sunken lost treasure for a favor.

    There are lots of possibilities with any mythical beings. I want them all, lol.

    I would have to go with mermaids. I feel like with TS4 we've already had so many 'spooky' packs, such as vampires and literally a spooky pack. I feel like having a mermaid pack would bring a lot of room for more beach-type of decor items and introduce more pastel colors into the game. It also makes the idea of having playable beaches more realistic .... because for some reason they already aren't?

    Yeah, I agree, But as @LiELF stated it'd be cool if the mermaids could be "Evil" or something like that, but I am getting kinda bored of all these horror themed occults and packs.

    Those are such great ideas that would definitely make mermaids more interesting than they'd been so far :D

    Evil sirens would be great!
    Maybe also customization options like having scales on bodyparts other than the tail like arms or face like this for example:

    Of course Witches!!! It offers so much potential. Like alchemy in sims 3 or the list of spells like in sims 2. And not to forget fly around on a broom.

    If we get mermaids, I intend to have one stay dressed in the Black Lagoon monster costume 24/7 to scare the locals. >:)

    I want witches most (I've been dying to get them. Every one of my sims in Sims 3 was usually a witch because it was so fun for me)

    But this thread got me thinking about how mermaids would work and how to make the best of it. An island world (with a bay hopefully, because that would be cool too) where the lots are on the coast. You could ride boats on the surface of the water, play in the beach, but below the surface would be open space on the ocean floor for mermaids to swim around and interact, with lots there too to design underwater homes or "parks" or something. That would be cool.

    But I really am dying for witches

    Witches! I really enjoy mermaids, but I rarely played them in TS3. Witches, however, I would play ALL OF THE TIME! I love them and I cannot wait for them to (hopefully) return to The Sims!

    Witches.

    Mermaids would be limited. They will need to code a world specifically for them and cannot go back to recode the water in the worlds we already have. At the rate we're going, we won't be get many more Occult Sims. I would rather they concentrate on those that can be used universally.
    I'd love to see Mermaids as an interactable NPC that could give gifts or be downright nasty to Sims in a beach vacation pack. Maybe Mermaid could also be a temporary lifestate so that your Sims could at least experience being one.

    If given this 2 options, I will choose the Witches. I need a warlock/sorcerer in my game. >:):D

    Both, but I'd like witches first

    Witches I feel would be incredibly fleshed out and similar to vampires, so I think it would be easier to have GP entirely devoted to them. BUT. I love mermaids. Mermaids are awesome. I want mermaids. I doubt they'd be GP all to themselves, so I wouldnt mind them added to a beach theme pack. (So long as they were fleshed out appropriately) My vote is mermaids.
  • Octavie88Octavie88 Posts: 140 Member
    I don't care about getting a tropical themed pack like most players, and I don't see them making swimmable oceans because I have no faith in them (after they couldn't even make a beach in Del Sol) so mermaids just seems unlikely to me. I love mermaids but doubt they'll happen. So witches.
  • DannydanboDannydanbo Posts: 18,057 Member
    I don't see diving ever being added. I mean we can't even play underwater games in a pool like holding your breath, it's all just surface swimming.

    Now, I can see them adding a vacation pack with coral reefs to explore while snorkeling in shallow water and exploring the reefs, looking for "treasure".

    Out of the two, I would prefer mermaids.

    I would love to see swimmable beaches and scuba diving again, and it would be an awesome bonus if there were mermaids popping up in special under sea quests!
