    I voted for witches on the first poll and on the second voted robots the others on the second poll just don't sound like something I would want in my game in everyday play.

    Gah, Werewolves are the feature I want the most in TS4 now that Seasons is out, and I miss this poll by a day :s

    I know it wouldn't have made a difference to the final result, but it would have been nice to have my voice heard.

    @jimmysnan here is a tutorial on how to disable packs

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9K3mMf-HtIs

    Vampires is GP04 you will need that info to disable it. Disabling the pack should not affect the rest of your game except if you've used any of the furnishings or CAS assets they will disappear in your game and need to be replaced. :)

    Thios does work but it does not take it out for good you have to do it at the start of every game, but it is a better solution then I have been playing with trying to avoid it thanks for the tip!

    Also tbh I tink the imaginary friend shouldn't even be included xD I mean is that really a life state the same way the others are? Maybe I don't get it :D

    Yeah...when I saw it there I was like "what???"
    Could have included something like Leprechauns, Ogres, Elves, Trolls, Nymphs, I don't know anything but Imaginary Friends :D

    Glad I'm not the only one xD and yes, elves would have been a mile better than imaginary friends!

    Part of why I chose Fairies is I think there's some overlap in lore between what a "Fairy" is and what an "Elf" is. And for me it feels fresh compared to Witches. But I'd play the heck out of a flexible witch pack too :)

    Yeah fairies I totally understand. I kind of like them in TS3 too for that matter and it'd be cool to see what a more fleshed out version would do for them. It's not my first choice but probably my second (or third, robots may be second :D)

    Yes it can be brought to life when the child who loves it truly loves it, grows up - it can become a regular (but most faithful ever ) sim and can marry that grown up child. So it is definitely not just a toy. Also even as a toy it become a friend of your child sim - a play mate - can go to school etc, etc.

    Oh I know that creepy doll can come to life (and follow your kids around all day before it does), that's why I got rid of it ASAP when my child sims got it after having played through that whole horror scenario the first time around xD It's just, to me, kinda like a normal sim once it comes to life. Just much creepier :D In a way I think they should add this just like they added patchy, in some other pack. But to dedicate a GP to it like to vampires or hopefully witches? Idk, maybe? I just can't really see it :/

    It's a good idea to check Grants page on Twitter every day if you are interested in what's happening at Maxis and he always does polls for just one day. Twitter gets way more simmers than the forum gets as the polls get 25,000 or more votes in just one day as all simmers can go to twitter but not all simmers can always come to this forum apparently (I don't know why, I have never asked - it's just what I see posted on twitter now and then from various twitter simmers) - so if you never want to miss a poll or don't want to miss out on info on things the devs are doing - it is a good idea to automatically check Grants page a couple times a day -

    Today (Friday - June 29th) Grant is having a live Q & A with Simmers between 3 -4 pm Pacific time (California time) - so if you have questions - or just want to see answers to others questions - you probably should stop by his twitter page this after noon.

    My picks were witches and robots - but I honestly love all the supernaturals - but zombies. The only reason I can't love zombies is all they want to do is mindlessly kill my sims - where as all the rest can be your sims friend - some of which your sim should seriously rethink about not making them angry - still they do not go walking round wanting to eat your sim for the most part.

    Granted I could see a zombie apocalypse where sims could in fact kill the zombies - then it would be fair, lol - but like I said - I do like all the other occults - with Witches and robots sort of my favs - the rest fall just slightly under my favs, and enjoy playing all but the zombies.

    I'm confused why some are saying what they "would have" voted for ? Why not just make a twitter and vote? You never have to use it again. Im just curious because you guys are kind of sounding like you have to go to the store to pick up a twitter account, or send an application through the mail, lol

    There is no way I would ever make a Twitter account ever nor Facebook , and I should not have to make one in order to vote for something I want in the Sims 4 or anywhere else, that is My opinion on it, thanks for sharing though, :)

    That's exactly what I thought. The second I saw his tweet about the polls I was like "...T-This is really unnecessary."
    I just hope we eventually get to see the main 3 supernaturals, because I feel like if Werewolves got the vampire treatment they could be amazing.

    Exactly, they are amazing in My opinion, they have Strength and are Fast, as well as the fact they can change from human to animal, that to Me is awesome in itself, and if they were done like the Vampires with wonderful strengths and weaknesses, I would buy that pack in a heartbeat, :)

    I REALLY want werewolves! It would be soo cool to turn every full moon! They would also go hand in hand with Vampires which would be pretty cool! I feel like Witches are wayyy too overrated lol

    So True , :)

    For the ones saying they do not use Twitter or do not have a twitter account. Is there a reason that's stopping you from creating one? Your vote could very well make a difference in what may or may not end up in our game :) Just like the old saying your vote will always matter. I myself don't use twitter but only on certain polls like this if i want to sort in hopes help the The sims 4 team head in the right direction if they are asking the community.

    Yup My main reason I do not use Twitter or Facebook is that they get hacked to many times, as well as been sued by many people cause of info leaks, I do not trust either one ever, and stay away from them, yup :) , I have even seen them on the News in the past bout it, nope I stay away from them.

    My top are witches, and mermaids. I just fail to understand why there are complaints he's doing this poll on twitter, it opens up to a much wider audience to poll from.

    My main thing which really is not a complaint mind you, is that I think it also should be on the Sims Forums as well as Twitter, otherwise it looks like We as players do not count, but that is how I see it anyway, and I also wanted Mermaids , but I was not to keen that I did not see them on the list for the poll so I will stick with My # 1 choice Werewolves, but what can ya do aye, :)
  • BlueBlack007BlueBlack007 Posts: 4,480 Member
    I voted for witches. Here's a pic of where the poll stood just a few minutes ago.

    Werewolves were in the first poll.
    But...they uhh..they lost.
    Now we have seasons all I need is Werewolves and my game is complete.

    I'm so glad that Witches are slaying it on the poll. I get wanting beaches, but mermaids are just boring to me. It's like, wow, you have a fish tail. Now what? :D Shame about the robots though. I was so over TS3 by the time the Plumbots were introduced, so I missed out on that.
  • triniwaytriniway Posts: 16 Member
    I think both Fairies and Witches are cool.
    What about an eternal battle between a good fairy and a bad witch? ..or sth like that. I always loved adding some fascinating back-stories to my households. Maybe it would be best if a pack with both would come out

    Aside the poll, I'd love to see mermaids with and robots again in the game. Beaches, underwater, time travel and futurism, everything is awesome about these

    I made a Twitter account (LatinaSith) and voted for Mermaids, of course, lol. :smile: Not that mermaids needed any help, since it seemed to be pretty high on the results! :blush:

    Out of those witches would probably win, regardless where this was posted.

    I'm actually worried about witches being on this poll. This potentially means they haven't started developing any of these life states and just had a discussion about them recently :|

    I’m actually more worried that it means they’re gonna break them all into individual game packs rather than a supernatural expansion to try to milk the money out of the player base.

    I really, really hope they do.

    I, of course, would vote for witches ... but I'm happy with anything out of the ordinary in terms of life states they add.

    I am surprised to have seen fairies beating werewolves, though. I hope both of those can be brought into the game.


    eta: I see a different poll, too (I am not a twitterer or facebooker) -- I like Imaginary friends. I would have voted for them or robots even though Mermaids are nice.

    I never really saw "Imaginary friends" as a lifestate though...Probably just me but still.
    Now we have seasons all I need is Werewolves and my game is complete.
