The Sims 4 has gone the extra mile with the fact that its resident vampire Sims do not cast reflections in mirrors. So all is as it should be, and all is right in the world once more.
Joke’s on you! That’s not quite how it works. But regardless, it’s still a pretty neat little detail that was included in the game.
Absurdly, the fourth major Sims title was released almost a full six years ago. But since then, things have hardly been very quiet in the Sims universe. Nine whole expansion packs for The Sims 4 have been released in that time, with the most recent one - Eco Lifestyle -having only just released at the beginning of last month. The game has also received sixteen Stuff Packs and eight Game Packs, both of which add yet more batches of content to the base game.
With many sharing the opinion that the fourth major game in the Sims franchise is in fact the most lackluster of the bunch so far, some measures are being taken to make the game feel interesting again. One of those measures is opting for Vampires - one of the eight Game Packs available for The Sims 4 - which was released back in 2017. It’s proven to be a great means of injecting a fresh boost of life into the game (ironic, because undead vampires).
While vampires have featured in the series since the very first generation of Sims games (ah, embrace the sweet wave of nostalgia as you recall Vicki Vampiress of Makin’ Magic fame), their big break definitely comes in the form of the fourth game’s Game Pack. As the name suggests, the entire thing is dedicated to these lifeless lifeforms, bulking out their existence in the game by adding a leveling system and a fully-fledged skill tree featuring perks and weaknesses.
From the small gaming details to the big ones that come with Vampires, they’re overall really well-received by both seasoned and newly-recruited Sims players, so if you haven’t yet, you should certainly give it a go.
