Sims 4received a major update today, and with it came the ability to not just WooHoo with the Grim Reaper, but possibly start a family with them as well. While the ability to WooHoo with death is not a brand-new feature, as veteran players would know, it is something that was taken out of the title only to be brought back. The timing here is interesting, as the Life and Death expansion is just around the corner.
While the idea of starting a family with the Grim Reaper might not appeal to some,Reddit threads have run rampant with excitement at the knowledge that WooHooing with death is an option once again. One user, known aslavabendingfirelord, sparked a major conversation about the re-introduced feature, stating"They know what the people want.“It is worth noting that since the update only went live recently, there has not been much testing or evidence to prove that Grim Reaper babies are possible, so that tidbit should be taken with a grain of salt.
WooHooing With The Grim Reaper Is Not The Only New Feature
There Are Plenty Of New Ghastly Features To Test Out
While starting a life of love with the Reaper of Souls is exciting and game-changing for some, there are quite a fewother notable changesthat came along with the new update.Sims will now react to other Sim’s deaths based on their relationship,including throwing up or even sobbing hysterically. Once a Sim has passed on into the afterlife, a new prompt will appear on-screen that gives players the option to either make them a playable ghost or let them free roam and haunt the halls of their once happy home.
Forget Horror, The Sims 4 Should Be Your Halloween Game This Year
A new Sims 4 expansion pack, plus some older and custom content, makes it the perfect Halloween game, even better than some horror titles.
More so, for those who decided to embark on the journey that is Sims marriage,the passing of a spouse will now cause the still-alive Sim to become widowed rather than stay married.If that is just too sad for some to deal with, there is always the option to ask the ghostly husband or wife to remain married so that the marriage status can be reinstated.
Some Changes Are A Bit More In-Depth, Including One That Can Create Chaos
Social Workers Can No Longer Just Delete The Kids
One feature that fans seem to agree was not the best was the Social Workers having the ability to remove infant, toddler, and child Sims from the home. The reason this was seemingly detrimental was because Social Workers could simply delete the kids taken from existence.With the new update, the kids taken or given to workers can now be sent to the Household Menu in the Manage Worlds tab,allowing them to be relocated if need be.
Some players think this newfound ability can help them stir the pot, so to speak, as they cansend off the kids that they no longer have to friends, aunts, uncles, or other Sims to wreak havoc.User RavenGreend replied to a comment asking"Doesn’t that mean you’re able to technically just send them back home after you’re deemed unworthy parents?“by stating,“Yes but also you can send them to uncles or grandparents or adopt by another family. The Drama.”
While these are just a few changes that have hit the title before the Life and Death pack launch, there are plenty more surprises in store for those jumping back in after today’s update. The Life and Death expansion inSims 4is set to go live on October 31, which is the perfect time to WooHoo with death or even send pets on a ghastly mission this Halloween.
