I would love to see a new world, maybe with two different parts...one a livable, spooky town and another part a bustling town square where you can go to little stalls, and stores with people selling their own potions and ingredients, wands, spellbooks etc. Also in the town square there could be a main area where people have duels, maybe play a sport similar to quidditch....... It would be cool if in order to make a potion, you would need to gather your ingredients. Level of difficulty and rarity of the ingredients would be based upon what type of spell you are trying to cast. Also maybe certain spells need to be cast with other witches for more power, or during a certain time of day, or time of year.
It would also be super cool to have dragons. I think that might be unrealistic- but i would love a pet dragon. Also i hope that you can make your pet a familiar if you are a witch or warlock.
In terms of getting to this magical world- a Sabrina The Teenage Witch feel would be cool- where your sim could chose what type of portal they want to have.... closet, basement, etc.
I also really like the feel of Makin Magic... the whole magician thing was really cool so maybe you could perform shows for people and gain fame from how good of a magician you are....
FINALLY.... a little bit of harry potter world could be cool too... and i honestly think they will include some sort of system for children similar to harry potter where they would go to a magical school of some sort- and that would link in really nicely with University, which i think will be the next pack after magic. I wouldn't mind if the town was kinda similar to harry potter- where you have to go to a store and find which wand is right for you, and there could be a store for familiars too.
Although I don't think it's likely it'll happen, I'd like to see faeries alongside witches. The kind of vague title, "Realm of Magic" gives me a glimmer of hope, but I certainly won't be surprised if it's just witches, especially knowing the current patterns of ts4 content. That being said, I'm glad that all the occult players are finally getting new content!
Personally I think the pack will introduce witches but be inclusive of all the arch types like sorcerers, wizards, deadlocks etc
I think it will be reminiscent of the vampire game pack in terms of depth of gameplay and is likely to introduce a superpowers system. Ok don't think they will introduce other occult like werewolves, but fairies could be likely as they have some overlapping similarities.
I'm excited to see some teasers in the coming months
Sigh, I've been waiting for this moment, for 5 years... and now... I'm apprehensive...
I honestly don't know what to think... I really want this to be epic, and I know this game has the potential.
However, know what I need, but I'm afraid my ideas and their ideas, the ideas I need they didn't take it into consideration.
I want to be excited, and I also just don't want to be disappointed.
I want a English-French High Middle Ages Renaissance to French Revolution Themes.
I have my builds ready, Romantic Garden, Get Together, Vampires, and Vintage Glamour came through to help me build my castles and other builds. it's just the Magical Objects, collectable, and antiques that need to finish the furnishings.
I would love a big cauldron over a fire pit. make potions, curses, or simply cook, meals in it too.
I want all mirrors to be able to be enchantable, to craft a "Magic Mirror." so even in a modern home setting my sim can have a modern magic mirror. Please allow us to trap sims in the "world behind the mirror, after you imbue the mirror with enough of your own power, you can trap a victim of your choice in the mirror to get a custom "Slave in the magic mirror."
Certain Spells and Curses and Potions I want.
Wrote a whole book of spells back in 2014 when I wanted Sorcerers so bad.
Book of Spells

Chapter III • Alchemy: Potions & Curses
To craft potions, and Curses you'll need a Stove, or a cauldron if you’re old fashioned.
*Again you can also get creative, and apply these Potions and Curses to Meals, Drinks, Fruits, Vegetables, you can also throw these’s at other sims, or consume it directly, so it doesn't necessarily have to be a Poisoned Apple that takes Snow White Down. It could be a Pumpkin Spice Latte that does it this time. Also we need Potions & Curses that do more than just change appearances, and fix needs, but also afflict emotions, and really do have an impact on Sims lives, and aspirations. I also tried to come up with ingredients that made sense and a little less flexible than the Sims 3: Supernatural was with Alchemy.

Chapter IX • {Working on this Chapter}
Thinking between Mythical Artifacts and another form of magic that isn’t really my taste.
Chapter X • Forbidden Magic
In game I was hoping for kind of like we go out into the worlds and find collectables, Ingredients we go out and find the “Hidden Pages" that we can add to the spell book unlocking the last Chapter, “Forbidden Magic." These Pages were written by the most powerful Sorcerers of Medieval Times, but then they hid them, because this magic was too dangerous. Do you dare put the pieces back together?
Extraction of Hearts - Carefully, Phase your hand into the chest cavity of victim, grabbing hold of the Heart, Finally pluck the heart, like an apple.
Once the Heart is removed, the Victim's personality will start to shift. Slowly not being able to feel, only knowing what they are, Heartless.
Congratulations! you now have a puppet to control, as long as you possess their heart. Careful not to squeeze the Heart too hard! Or go ahead see what happens to your puppet.
(makes voodoo look like child's play)
Resurrection - I have a few ideas on this. Where you have to steal the Grim Reaper's Scythe and use it to create a rift between life and death. the other option was, building a pentagram, and performing a ritual.
Time Travel - (not sure how this one would work)
Ultimately this is what I was hoping for, and I really hope they nailed most of it.
It would be nice if there was a specific holiday for magic. We could be visited by Merlin or another famous wizard/witch (more or less like father winter in seasons), and depending on whether we followed the traditions and activities or not, we'd either earn a blessing or a curse from him/her.
Oh, and please, use a few RPG elements in this pack! There doesn't have to be a long questline such as Strangerville's. Just a few quests/missions would be enough.
Lastly, I know dragons we can interact with are probably out of the table, but it would be nice to have animations of them flying around in the distance, like the lake monster in Windenburg. That would already give the world a nice touch.

If we do get more RPG elements like strangerville, they need to make it so that we can create our own quests and stage our own boss fights
I have so many boss fights and quests I want to stage.
Sorcerers, Daemon, Werewolves, Supernatural hunters Knights and A Queen boss fight in mind.
I’d like to have the philosopher’s stone or the Midas touch, the 🐸🐸🐸🐸 wagon and crystal ball, the Narnia inspired magic wardrobe back.
Witchcraft is something that would 100% percent happen so I’d not address it here but I do wanna fairies, genies and zombies back. Always nice to have some Sims classics back.
Final and the most important, I wanna the pet dragons back! I feel like the timing would be perfect cuz this year we got the Game of Thrones final episode and How to Train Your Dragon 3, both of which have dragons highly evolved in.
I’d love a new world for witches like Forgotten Hollow for the vampire pack. I’m hoping they’ll add new lot traits to make witchcraft easier on certain lots and power trees like they used for the vampire and fame content. I’m not a big fantasy player, so I’m not sure I’d make much use of anything beyond witches though or possibly werewolves in a future pack. They’ve always been my favourite life states.
I wonder if they'll bring back the "Smustle" dance.
Ya'know, it was in the Sims 2 and then they brought in back in Sims 3 with the Supernatural pack.
Since Magic is pretty supernatural, it would seem to be a good time to bring back this goofy dance, like some kind of parallel to the way the Sims 3 brought it back!
Comments
Cross pack content is literally my favorite. The Island Living and Seasons cross over has me sobbing.
I hope witches have closer relationships with cats, and maybe cats can have some sorta powers. TRANSFIGURATION ASWELL 💗😭

yass
*enjoys popcorn*
Not speculating on who is right and who is wrong. Nor am I laughing at you.
Simply enjoying all your comments. I love this community.
The ninja is always lurking and not telling any sort of 'secrets'.
Lowkey making me more anxious then I already am, but I see you. Feel free to drop some hints, I won’t mind. ✌️😂😭
sounds fun cant wait

Aw man, I know you won’t tell, but do you think I will be well pleased with this pack?
Edit: Nevermind I just got my, Answer, and if I interpreted it correctly, yes I will be!

I have so many boss fights and quests I want to stage.

My Mood:
I’m down, for this or some mythical creature. Or just some Harry Potter pets.
Or a black Pegasus! I'd love a great, black Pegasus.
Percy Jackson, anyone?
