The announcement of a new addition to The Sims 4 gave fans hope for a journey into the mystical world. Finally, in January 2017, the long-awaited Sims 4: Vampires addon appeared, fully dedicated to this topic. Today we will do a short review of this add-on and talk about how you can have fun in the new town of Vorgotten Hollow.
Create a character
Together with the add-on "Sims 4: Vampires" a lot of new things came to the gameplay. The changes also affected the character editor, in which the choice of appearance for the future bloodsucker varied significantly. Together with new skin that looks like it has never been in the sunshine, twinkling eyes, creepy eyebrows and bruises, you can create the real Count Dracula! Well, or terrifying, but such a pretty young vampire. Of course, do not forget about spectacular makeup and sharp fangs that will help complete the creepy look. In general, a stay in the updated editor can drag on for several long hours.
Before you make a vampire in "Sims 4", it is worth learning about the main feature, which became available only with the new addition - these are two sides of the same appearance. Converted characters can have two images, one of which looks completely normal, just like an ordinary person, and the second is very ominous. The sim can take the last dark side when it uses its supernatural abilities.
How to go to the dark side
Now we’ll talk about how to become a vampire in The Sims 4. In addition, there are several ways to achieve this goal:
- Create your own vampire in the character editor. This method allows you to work on the appearance and character of your ward, based on your own preferences. Two sides are available for editing at once.
- And how to become a vampire in "Sims 4", if the character has long been living his life? Then you can apply with a bite (of course, we will be bitten in this case). To do this, you need to make friends with one of the vampires living in Forgotten Hollow, and then ask him for a "small service."
- If none of the above methods wants to work, then codes for "Sims 4: Vampires" should help in becoming a bloodsucker.
Basic needs
A vampire sim has a mortal need for two things: daytime sleep and quenching thirst. If the first is more or less clear, the second requires a little explanation. In order for a sim to quench his thirst, it is necessary to provide him with special bags of blood or a sufficient number of bloody fruits. Of course, the game also has a classic approach to solving such a delicate problem. Vampires can receive blood from ordinary sims, using the power of hypnosis on them, or simply sneaking up on any victim they like in the middle of the night. Especially for the most polite bloodsuckers, there is an alternative - you can just ask to help your good friend quench your thirst.
It’s worth remembering that any abilities can be disabled using cheats for “Sims 4: Vampires”.
Vampire abilities in Sims 4
So that players do not lose interest in completing the add-on for a long time, the developers tried to create a whole branch of unique opportunities and skills. All the vampire abilities in "Sims 4" depend on the level of the character. Earning special points, you can spend them on gaining access to a particular skill, which can also be improved thanks to special training.
We'll talk about exactly which abilities are available in the Sims 4: Vampires game in the following chapters.
At the beginning of the vampire journey: inexperienced stage
There are two stages of development ahead of the convert character: inexperienced and younger. At each stage, the vampire gains different abilities, both positive and negative. By the way, it is worth remembering that a sim that just reincarnated does not know how to do anything, so you will have to earn points already at the start. If you want to speed up the process, then for this purpose there are also special codes for "Sims 4: Vampires".
So what opens up at this stage?
We determine what the future vampire will be like. It works on the same principle as when installing the character of an ordinary sim.
From the name you can guess in the image of whom the sim gets the ability to quickly move from one place to another.
- We cause a hallucination.
Such a skill can be applied to any character, after which he will begin to behave strangely and will talk like a madman.
With this skill, you can easily enter into any enclosed space, even if they do not want to see our sim there. You can even live in a strange house!
Last positive ability. Slightly reduces waste of energy.
A converted sim cannot eat ordinary foods and even refuses bloody fruits. He constantly feels nauseous and vomits.
- Become guilty of a booze.
After each attack on the victim, our sim acquires an orange negative mudlet.
The character is just ... hissing. And he does it absolutely everywhere, causing constant minuses from people passing by.
Moving up the vampire ladder: junior stage
The effectiveness of all romantic interactions is increased. The time of the first kiss and other activities is noticeably approaching.
The character has increased physical data, and physical education skills are pumped much faster. If the sim enters into a fight, then most likely will come out of it as a winner.
A sim vampire can control other characters and inspire them with certain actions.
If you refuse to acquire this skill, then the sim will have problems, in particular, he will not be able to bite his victim due to the smell of garlic.
- Transmission of vampirism.
How to make a vampire in "Sims 4" from an ordinary person, if our sim has already turned? It is in this case that this skill will come in handy.
- We become a sloppy drunkard.
The time for blood absorption increases, the vampire victims are more likely to suffer from fainting and may even die.
Sunlight does even more damage.
Becoming Strong Vampires: Experienced Stage
Very similar to the skill of "hallucinations" from an inexperienced stage.
Gives positive Moodles at night.
- Feeling of irresistible slumber.
Our sim constantly feels sleepy and can fall asleep absolutely anywhere and in any setting.
- Learning to control the soul.
If you apply this skill to the victim, then she will lose all her friends. After the soul returns, she has a slight immunity to further influences.
Converted sim faster restores energy during sleep.
Our sim can go to bed only in a coffin.
Energy during sleep is restored much more slowly.
Stage of the vampire overlord
At each new level, we receive special protection that suppresses the corresponding qualities. The sim vampire is in constant neutrality about everything.
- Supernatural speed skill.
Sim learns to move fast. Almost the same as the "bat", but without reincarnation.
- Manipulation of other people's needs.
The physical needs of the victim are controlled.
Complete protection against annoying burns. Opens after reaching the third level.
You can also forget about the need for washing. Our sim vampire is always clean and smells good.
- Feeling insatiable thirst.
Sima is increasingly overcome the feeling of hunger.
In the daytime, the vampire is practically inactive and may forget about the possibility of drinking blood.
Grand Master Stage
The abilities gained at this level can be compared in “Sims 4: Vampires” with cheats, as some of them greatly facilitate the gameplay.
Quite an interesting ability, thanks to which a sim can release a whole range of emotions.
Sim can move quickly, taking the form of a foggy haze.
The level of communication is disabled. The sim can continue to talk with other characters, however this will not affect anything.
If the sim suddenly overcomes a terrible hunger, then he will still restrain the urge to drink human blood. Suitable for players acting out the good-natured scenario.
Disable the need for joys.
- Feeling of eternal sadness.
The sim gets a constant moodlet for a bad mood.
- Exhaustion of the deadly aura.
This skill forever spoils any acquaintance.
Well, that's all the abilities available in the add-on. Remember that the power for the vampire should be chosen wisely!
