Ghosts are reskinned Mountain Sprits?

I heard someone mention this? As I no intention of getting SE I can't say this bothers me but is this true?
Occultism in Sims is family-friendly and should not be watered down to cater to realism players

Wow your right I don't see it either but I saw someone say it
That isn't the right spirits. There's two types. The other type is the Kodama and they are the ones that make people think reskin. The body is very similar. Kodama have 3 leaf like protrusions rather than 2 little arms and a tail though.
I see. I guess we will see in the livestream how similar they are though. The mountain spirits are pretty friendly and some of the ghosts don't look friendly in the trailer.
Seems ghosts from Paranormal range from pranksters to ticked off ghosts that would blow stuff up.
Reskin means they literally just made something look different and it otherwise is exactly the same as something else functionally. An example of a reskin would be me looking for a mod that adds a votive candle that is functionally the same as the Menorah in Seasons so I can use the "festive lighting" tradition for holidays other than Hanukkah. It would functionally be the same, but would look different.
All these spirits have different gameplay. They may all have a "pokemon" artstyle, but they're not the same.
I have to agree. My initial thought on seeing the gif teaser was that they were the same, but seeing the trailer and relooking at kodama they aren't the same at all, just the same style.
Okay I see. Never saw them in my game. It has a similar body shape but not enough for me personally to accuse them of reskinning because they plot at least a year in advance they said. So the ghost for paranormal was probably already decided a long time ago. If anything I'm thinking they decided to use the model for snowy escape as bonus content to throw in there. *shrugs*🤷♀️
I'm not going to think too hard about it.
ghosts are spirits, makes sense they look alike, it's a choice of style not just a reskin.
I still don’t see any similarity between these and the ghost spirits in Paranormal. I think people are just nitpicking.
Giving them gifts sounds exactly like the thanksgiving gnomes in Seasons.
I hope these ghost feel really different from Island Spirits, University Secret Society Sprites, Mount Komorebi spirits.
They all feel a bit rehashed. I believe I saw a sim making and offering to a ghost. You did it in Sulanli, Britechester, and now this new pack, it gets boring quick.
At least seances bring something new though.
Did you give gifts to Sulani spirits too? I never did that, I just did Sulani activities to please them.
But yeah, I hope giving gifts will not be the only way to appease or get rid of ghosts, I mean there seem to be different kinds so hopefully they will need different actions to get rid of them.
