It's the first occult pack to be added in the game, it still stands up imo, although I rarely play with occults, vampire is quite cool to play. Forgotten Hollow is so small, I wish they will add lore and make it larger like Moonwood Mill. The Victorian bbs and cas are nice, but I don't use it often. It's still a good pack, but I prefer werewolf lol

If you love the occult, this is the pack to get! While the other packs, I've bought fell flat (Cats & Dogs for example), this one has extended my gameplay of the Sims by ten-fold. The vampire powers and abilities are amazing in the base game, and with mods, the pack feels even better to play. For an older pack, it holds up although I get what most people mean about how it should have been combined with the other supernatural packs.

Not a very good pack, honesty i used it once so that my sim could live forever, but realized you can just do this with mods, having vampires come (teleport) in your home and mess things up is honestly more of a hassle than a fun surprise, note that vampires are everywhere no matter where you move... this pack was a waste of money personally. The clothes and furniture arent even that good.

there must be a bug or something, because even though the game told me that my sim is now a vampire, nothing changed... (he can still eat garlic, his dark form doesn't appear in my CAS, etc.) I hope I'm not the only one this has happened to... :( Too bad I can't even refund it.

debe haber un bug o algo así, porque a pesar de que el juego me haya dicho que mi sim ahora es vampiro, no cambió nada... (puede seguir comiendo ajo, su forma oscura no me aparece en el CAS, etc.) espero no ser la unica que le haya ocurrido esto... :( lástima que nisiquiera lo puedo reemblosar.

Sure it's fun. But is it worth 20 bucks? Hell no. I would pay 5 bucks for this because that's about how much content it adds like very other dlc ea has squeezed out from this game only buy it on a sale otherwise it's not worth your money. also it's the same price as the game itself (at launch) and it doesn't add a whole new game worth of content even if the base game already had no content in it. Every single one of these "dlcs" except for a select few should've been free updates not paid dlc.

Its fun, but for that price? I managed to snag it while it was on sale but even then it was still overpriced. Even though I'd like to rant about EA's greed, I'll admit I've enjoyed it. It's a fun little pack for people who like vampires and are willing to ignore the price.
Some of the features I like:
-Ability to Woohoo as bats and in a coffin
-The vampire powers
-The new clothing (of which there isn't much)
-The Gothic architecture and furniture

Things I don't like:
-The new neighbourhood is very small
-Getting power points is a bit tedious
-The price

I enjoyed it, I got it on sale and thought it was worth it (around $15.00), most of the negative reviews are about EA milking money out of, which yes the absolutely are, but if you're fine with being sucked dry by EA, this pack is actually pretty cool. Gives a different vibe to the game, I am a little sad the new neighborhood that comes with it is so small (only has like 4 or 5 plots) but otherwise it's a pretty cool addition and the vampire theme is really done well. Much more of a classic horror vampire alla Brahm Stoker and much less Twilight or True Blood, which I really appreciate.

If you have vampires, my favorite thing to do is put two sims in a basement, one human and one vampire, and just wait. I'd do nothing but wait for the inevitable and cackle. Also, if a sim talks to the vampire sim, uses the bathroom, and other miscellanious tasks, occasionally they will not cancel them and the vampire is never forced to eat them.

I was very exited to get this pack as it seemed like a fun way to add new gameplay and it was on sale for a decent price. Sadly this is the most dissapointing pack i've purchased yet, i feel like there isn't a lot of fun things to do as a vampire and the new world you get is very small compared to other worlds, so i find myself never using it and i honestly regret getting this pack. So unless you're someone really into vampires or you only play the game to create characters, i would not reccomend getting this pack

I think this is a amazing pack for Sims 4 if you want some fun game play, I also think the CAS items are good, and if your looking for some somewhat vitage build items they are very nice. I really like the new town it unlocks, its very spooky and gives off the best vampire vibes!

The New Map has nothing to really offer except another map. The count Vlad is what makes this DLC fun, All the vampire stuff with him. Making a Vampire is not as fun as playing the premade ones in there homes. I added a Club to the neighborhood and feed off sims. Count Vlads house has a basement with 3 coffins plus 2 beds upstairs and he lives alone. He starts at GrandMaster in his skills so your forced to play his weaknesses. Which are pretty cool cause any player wouldnt pick any of them. Almost zero reviews, heres one.

The vampire pack is fun, if you enjoy playing with occult sims. If I didn't care about the occult sims I probably wouldn't get it. It does take time to level up your vampire. One of my favorite features is being able to fly around as a bat whenever you want. Other than that it's 50/50 if you'd enjoy it or not.

Let's get this out of the way:
Yeah, it sucks that Werewolves and Realm of Magic are separate. Yeah, EA loves money too much. Yeah, the Sims as a franchise loves to milk their players.

That said, this is one of my favorite packs in the game, and if you're gonna give EA your money on any pack, this is the one I'd recommend the most, to the point that I'd recommend it over some of the expansions. It adds a neighborhood, albeit a small one, a lot of items, and a decent number of clothes and hairstyles.

Most importantly, the vampire lifestate itself. Honestly, I think this version of vampire sims is way better than what you got in The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 vampire expansions. The leveling with the skill tree is an interesting addition, as is having to decide what weaknesses your vampires will have as you progress.

If you don't want to buy it on sale, I get it, as I didn't either (who buys any of these when they aren't on sale, anyways?). But when it is, this should be at the top of your list of packs to buy.

Good for Goth Emo chicks

Not worth the money, even on sale I feel like the Paranormal expansion pack is leagues a head of Vampires, it honestly should have been one pack, another scandalous money milking ploy by EA but i digress. The costumes are cool if you're into 1800s type of fashion, the building decor isn't anything to rave about if you aren't an avid builder of Gothic castles and the game play is kind of dumb. Very bland if you dont have the Extreme Violence mod, like who'd want to be a vampire, live for thousands of years and not commit at least a few murders and robberies in style? I think they could have done better.

Vampire skills are mostly what you can achieve with the aspiration/satisfaction points for regular Sims and the ones that are 'new' are usually game breaking. Half the time when I try to use a vampire skill on another Sim, the whole thing simply freezes up and even trying to use a cheat to reset the Sim doesn't work, so I have to shut down the entire game without saving. If I use the skills to influence moods, even to have the sims around me simply be happy, they usually die (ah, yes, death from being way too happy). This makes the vampire skills useless. Worse, you have to choose weaknesses to go along with the skills and those are annoying and turn your vampire Sim into a mopey, starving mess ALL of the time. Vampire Sim "dark forms" are usually hideous and my Sims often get stuck in that form with no way to change back, no matter how many times I click the option to change back. On top of that, people automatically, randomly hate my vampire Sims (even more than they randomly hate my regular Sims) even if they aren't doing anything vampire-like and even if they have the 'skill' to make themselves more attractive. I feel like nothing in this pack actually works and I've wound up changing all of my vampire Sims back to regular Sims over the course of gameplay because it just isn't fun to manage them and it isn't fun to deal with the freezing up all of the time and the random mood deaths. The only positives are that I do like the 5 female hairstyles in this pack and some of the gothic building and plant options. Was that worth $20, though? No.

This is the only thing that keeps me playing Sims4. I only wish there was more of it. Being able to add a little spooky atmosphere to the Sim's houses plus the mischief that some of the vampire abilities can cause add a lot to an otherwise inferior game. I got both this and the base game on sale for cheap and am very glad that I picked up the vampire add on.

Sims4 just seems to need something to dress it up and fill it out more. This is just enough for me.

I still wish there was a lot more content to the game, but I don't wish it enough to shovel a lot more cash into EA's greedy maw so I might not ever add more to it.

They finally got vampires right this time, no more Twilight references thank god, this version pays respect to the more classic vampires with coffins, bat form, psychic powers and actually dying in the sun, no more sparkling like Sims 3.

I also quite enjoyed the new Dark Form which lets you completely customize a second appearance to look more undead with glowing eyes, pale skin and a separate set of clothing if you choose to unlink them from your normal form.

It does however feel a lot more striped down than The Sims 3's Supernatural expansion as you have to buy other dlc's to get werewolves, magic and ghosts which used to all be in the same expansion in previous games.

Steam is empty of reviews, so here we are with the rather intriguing Vampire pack - Wondering whether or not its worth the the time or money.

Good news! It's certainly worth the time, and occasionally worth the money!

As an outline of things that the Vampire pack adds, we'll go through a checklist below:

- Gothic Architecture
- Expensive Dental Patients with poor blood retention.
- The ability to **** as a bat.
- Coffins for your millenial sims.
- Immortality!
- Whacky Vampiric spells and forms
- And More!

So the pack adds your favorite hickey fans to the game, along with a talent tree to work your sim through. The gameplay loop as a bloodsucker is a shakeup from the norm, with death looming around every sunrise if you aren't careful. With a plethora of lore, spells, and interactions to choose from the pack seems to set itself apart as something more worthwhile.

That being said, the best part of this is the ability to overcome age and the at times taxing needs of your sims. No longer do you need to worry about re-training the perfect writer as your previous has passed from old age. Nor need you worry about consistently finding a potion of youth. It's quite a time to be un-alive.

Unique pack interactions exist with Seasons, allowing you to go out on rainy, cloudy, snowing days.

Ultimately, I recommend this pack for what it offers. If you can nab it at 50% or more off, awesome! If you've got the spare change and want a toothy transformation for your gameplay, pick it up full price! This is one of the rare ones where I think $20 is fair for what's offered.

Literally cannot Use this DLC, Bought it with Spellcaster DLC and for some reason, it says in game permanantly "Restart To Use"
I've tried everything including Verifying integrity of game cache and Reinstalling
As well as un-enabling and re enabling the content, SOMEONE PLEASE HELP?!?!

I recommend this game pack specially because of the:

[_] gothic themed clothing, cosmetics and furniture.
[_] brand new neighborhood.
[_] vampirish perks.
[X] non-consensual blood sucking interaction.

Star-Demon
Star-Demon

It does what it says on the box: It adds Vampires.

This DLC is not fundamentally important to the game, but it does add something different and special, and it also adds enough related content to carry it through the whole game. There's enough build items and furniture to support quite a bit of fun in the new region/world and elsewhere, but, as always, there could have been more!

The downside, however, is that the new region/world has very few lots. All-in-all, this DLC is a worthy buy on a steep discount.

This might be my favorite Sims 4 game pack.

Pros:
- Ability to create your own style of vampires. Perks and weaknesses allow you to customize your vampires. You can create daywalkers who enjoy the occasional non-plasma food or heliophobic monsters who are feared and hated by the other sims.
- Vampire sims are actually immortal. Unlike in Sims 3 where you need to purchase a lifetime reward for immortality, Sims 4 vampires neither age nor sparkle under the sun.

Cons:
- Severe lack of vampiric cuisine. There's only one vampiric dish that you can make. If you select Withered Stomach as a weakness for one of your sims, the cooking skill becomes worthless.
- Lack of vampiric clothing and objects.

i just wanna say yes,this game is one of the best games ive ever played!

Honestly, this pack offers about as much as any of the $40 expansion packs. I would always recommend buying all the Sims 4 DLC when they're on sale, but if you're thinking of buying any of them, I would highly suggest this one for starters. This pack offers a new neighborhood, an entirely new way to play, crazy powers and perks, the entire game is changed as a vampire. I found that this pack goes especially well with City Living, because living in an apartment allows your vampire sim to nearly avoid sunlight, which is very important at the start. As you progress, you can basically become a god among sims.

Highly recommend!

First off, I'm huge into Cosmetics for my characters!
The character customization selections with this pack are amazing!
In addition, this pack allows several unique and fun in-game features.
Mesmerize someone into buying free drinks, have a gorgeous character that never ages (really!), and the ability of several Vampire Talents!

Out of the game packs, Vampires is tied for top with Realm of Magic for me. The vampires are incredibly robust, and completely change how you play the game when a Sim has this life state.

For Simmers that played the older Sims, Vampires surprised me by making the Sims 4 version of vampires my favorite in the franchise.

Good pack.
The new facial features here are good, and creating vampires is something overall.

If you don’t have a good pc, just expect it to lag making dark forms.

Fangs Out - Intricate Powers System Makes The Sims™ 4 Vampires Feel Full And Satisfying

Sure, a lot of people may feel a shame how this supernatural game pack does not include werewolves, zombies and faeries just like how the old The Sims 3: Supernatural - but hey, this pack does Vampires right.

The best part about The Sims™ 4 Vampires is the intricate skill and power points plan. This isn’t a life state where you can play out in one session. Balancing out powers with strict weaknesses also puts constraints on the life state – which is a wise challenge to preserve the balance of the game; otherwise it would be a godly force ruling over the game.

The most important factor is Vampire energy, which is decreased by using powers and soaking up the sun. Unless you are a Grand Master with Sun Resistance, vampires cannot go outside for more than few moments in daytime - and no, I am not even exaggerating. If the Vampire energy bar is low, your Vampire will die in the blink of an eye, especially if you chose the ‘thin skinned’ weakness. Amazing, isn’t it?

The power points menu is almost like something that test your strategic foresight ability to think about the cause and effect when choosing the vampire powers and weaknesses. The list of abilities are a great mix between classic supernatural and superhero, appealing to both audiences. The smooth animations, such as superhuman speed, strength and teleportation, are straight-up finesse.

Not to mention, I was also pleasantly surprised by how we are able to create a human disguise (light and dark form) for our vampire in CAS. The vampire eyebrows, ears, scarring, skin tones, teeth and facial structures are also realistically impressive. Moreover, there are three new aspirations and lot traits – the one that leave me the most impression is the ‘Good Vampire’ aspiration since it provides a little challenge for the immortal who want to resist sucking plasma out of innocent Sims. With the new Vampire lair lot trait, your household will even receive gifts from a secret occult organization.

Overall, The Sims™ 4 Vampires is definitely a substantial pack that is beautifully well done. It really bring upon generous amount of content that adds tons of depth into gameplay, even if you are not the biggest fan of Vampire.

I think this is my favourite add on! I got it in a bundle with vintage glamour, which I think go together pretty seamlessly. Also not a single use "mission" type. Plenty of new items for building, and doesn't at all seem like a janky afterthought.

The Vampires pack is a small pack but comes rich with features. There's only 5 resident lots but tbh, that's all you need. You buy this pack because you want to become a Vampire. That is the fun part and it can be super hilarious at times. Pair this pack with Get Together and it's endless fun. Imagine forming your own Vampire club and going on at it with the Magicians in the Realm of Magic pack. The supernatural powers are literally there for fun. If you learn them all, it's seriously hilarious. lol better than the magicians imo. You can crash parties, weddings, gatherings and you'll be in tears laughing. lol

vampires is my favorite sims 4 pack by far. only complaint is i wish there was an option to "drain the life" out of a sim by sucking all their blood out until they die. but understandably this game is rated T so..

I mean its cool and all but even to this day vampires are extremely broken, simulation lag kills them all in the sun when they get home from work, and dont even think about reviving them with ambrosia. Also the neighborhood is not very nice. so many areas look like you could interact or explore but nope. love that it adds gothic build mode stuff though, just a shame its so empty much like the game its made to fill.

Fisty

Definitely the best Soms 4 DLC pack. With extra character editing options, a lot of cool new things added to the game, and an entire new world (which is admittedly, pretty bland). But it’s there! This pack is a really good one and EA seems to know that too since you can catch it on a sale for 10 bucks pretty frequently.

TheBlackArmy
TheBlackArmy

It's a good game pack. However, I regret that I bought it.

If you're into occult then you might want to buy it.

Here ARE some of my personal reasons I regret buying it.
❌The building items aren't my type.
❌I barely use the clothes and the hair as well. It looks outdated and silly.
❌You'll get bored easily if you're not into vampires.

✅ The only good thing about it is the vampire system. It's detailed and it adds to the game play.

If you're into occult then buy this. If not, don't buy it.

I really like this pack because it actually real. Vampires cant go outside in sun which is true. Vampires can drink from a "blood bag" which is known as a plasma pack in the game which makes sense because who would want to try and order a blood bag on the computer? Also EA helps people realize that not all vampires are bad because they have weaknesses which can make them not want to drink plasma at all. So it helps some people realize their are good vampires and some that just dont care about human life.

For context, I really enjoy The Sims 4, coming off of being a The Sims 3 fan. All DLC I own has been bought on sale, save for a few stuff packs.

Truth be told, I did not expect much out of this game pack. Vamps in TS3 always felt kind of bare bones so I didn't expect much out of this, but bought it based off of recommendations. I gotta say, a little bit blown away.

I've thoroughly played through the pack's content and there's a lot of meat on these bones. Easily one of the best game packs for TS4, and I'd even venture to say it outclasses some of the expansion packs.

PROS:

- New life state, the vampire. Obviously.

- Vampires actually have a progression system that allows you to develop their powers and further customize and control their lives in unique ways (the ability to put others to sleep, reproduce, more efficient use of powers, can enter any house uninvited, super strength, super speed, bat transformation, sun resistance, etc.) This progression system is simple enough to be intuitive, and complex enough to fun and interesting across several sims.

- Weaknesses must be taken to progress through the vampire ranks, creating a nice balance between advantages and drawbacks so it's not a super obvious choice to make every sim a vamp (occasional hissing, feelings of guilt when feeding on someone, less efficient sleep, sun weakness, less efficient feeding, unable to eat normal food, can only sleep in coffins, etc.)

- LOADS of create-a-sim items that are extremely fitting for vampire, punk, and goth styles

- Even more build items that allow you to make a proper gothic home

- Build items genuinely affect gameplay and serve purposes outside of cosmetics (namely, a vampire will sleep better in a coffin)

- Vamps have "dark forms" they can transform into when using powers or feeding. These can be customized to some degree during create-a-sim and have their own outfits, teeth, ears, skin details, eye colors, and skin tones.

- Vampirism completely halts aging, allowing a favorite sim some extra time on the earth

- Vampirism can be hereditary

- New aspirations that play into what type of person your sim is as a vamp, allowing for deeper roleplay and story crafting

- Immersively learning lore on vampires in game, deepening your sim's knowledge and abilities via the Vampire Lore skill

- New plants, consumables, and recipes for vamps including plasma fruit, plasma juice, sun resistance potion, etc.

- New world--Forgotten Hollow--which has unique benefits for vamps.

- Easy curing of vampirism via a bar

- New sims, one of which is heavily based on the titular character from the 1922 horror classic, Nosferatu.

- New interactions based around vampirism and its various tropes both for regular sims (praise vampire lifestyle, confess fear of vampires, debate existence of vampires, ask to turn, etc.) and vampires (compare to long-lost love, declare eternal love, compliment neck, offer to turn, etc.)

- Immersive introduction of the mechanic. Vampires can invite you over and ask if you would like to be turned.

- extensively played, no bugs unique to this pack encountered personally

CONS:

- Somewhat poor communication regarding the affects and usefulness of some powers or weaknesses (taking sun weakness makes daytime travel basically impossible even at the lowest levels)

- Progression through the last ranks of vampirism takes much longer than expected and can easily make the game feel slow

- Vampirism has little to no affects on sims before becoming a teenager

- Force feeding on a sim automatically lowers relationships with all nearby sims, even if you put them to sleep prior to the forced feeding, and regardless of whether or not other sims in your household do the same. Preposterous.

Create-a-sim items are a bit niche, and have few applications outside of the obvious vampiric, gothic, and punk vibes

Overall an extremely solid pack with tons of gameplay potential. Obviously I never recommend giving EA more money then you can get away with, but a rare instance where $20 is a fair price. To me at least.

We're happy to celebrate our most important festival with the world TOGETHER, but that doesn't mean that @thesims could represent the festival only by korean and show no respect to its original Chinese culture. Korean also celebrate Christmas, why not representing Christmas by them?The post celebrates lunar new year of tiger with korean costumes and Chinese dishes, deliberately mixing two culture. This is cultural appropriation and offending Chinese players.
I love this game very much , played it almost 800+h but as a Chinese player this is unacceptable.I hope EA team could respect all the players. If you don't know how to represent other’s culture properly at least google it before posting.

The old dude that teaches me to be a vampire is a freak in bed with the WhickedWims mod. Anyways... Vampire Sims constantly need to drink plasma packs so I always have a room just dedication to having like 30-40 plasma packs spread out across the floor. Sims need to drink 3 or 4 of them to completely refill their thirst meter. It's annoying af. I ended up just turning my vampire sim back into a human. I feel like half the vampire experience is just sitting down and reading the vampire books to gain new knowledge on vampires which as you can imagine is incredibly fun and totally not boring as fuck. Its fun for a bit but overall just gets boring. Overall, this DLC just kinda *SUCKS*

Sims games are fun, but ea's new game pack makes me angry. The Chinese New Year became the Korean Lunar New Year. This is obvious theft. The poster after the change is still Hanbok. Chinese players aren't crazy to attack everywhere, it's just that our culture has been clearly stolen. For example, if other foreigners say that sushi is Korean, aren't Japanese angry? If pasta is Korean, aren't Italians angry? If fried fish is Korean, aren't the British angry? If Oktoberfest is Korean, aren't Germans angry? If the Russian matryoshka dolls is Korean, aren't the Russians angry? Chinese are not aggressive peoples, we just want to protect our culture!!!!!

Unless you REALLY need this pack for a story, I don't recommend it. I personally never use any game play or build mode features from this pack. The furniture is very old and medieval-ish style, which is great if you're into that. If you do plan to get this pack, wait for a sale. I know everyone says that about everything and that it's hard to wait, but wait if you can for this.

**always buy on sale**
a fun dlc which adds alot
was one of the first i bought but was well worth it
the vampire content is fun especially the perks you get personal favourite is the vampiric sprint makes getting around so much easier
the town that it adds is small with very few places to build but a safe haven for all your vampires
the clothes are super cool same with the build options i especially love the floor options
its one of the better dlc for the game in my opinion

A vampire was harassing me, so I invited him to my garden at 5AM and engaged in small talk... until the sun came up.
We got on like a vamp on fire!
Yeah, he's dead now.
What an idiot.

I'm a massive fan of occults in the Sims, and this pack does them perfectly. Vampires are very nicely balanced, and abilities actually affect gameplay decently often besides the whole, yknow, drinking blood thing. The new CAS and BB objects are cool too, though some are a bit too goth for my taste. The world is honestly the weakest part of this pack, but it's still a world I do like using. It's pretty, and does a vampire vibe nicely, but it's also tiny. I would wholeheartedly recommend this pack if you like occults even slightly in the sims, it's one of the best DLC packs for this game.

This game pack is SO not worth it! Definitely my biggest DLC regret for The Sims 4. The "town" is comes with is so boring, as is playing with Sim vampires. There's just not much to do. I abandoned my Vampire household pretty quickly.

the dlc on its own is something that i would recommend but the fact that i had to pay£17,99 is my issue here as it is just too over priced for something with the content that this provided, keeping in mind that if you get the bass game in a sale it can be cheaper than this dlc.

i don't recommend just because of the pricing

I've really enjoyed it! The vampires add a lot of content and I absolutely love gothic vibes so the furniture was a big plus imo

used to play on Xbox so I am not gonna rebuy everything-use mods and only a few packs, this vampire pack adds some supernatural elements-unfortunately its not like the sims 3 where all the occult types are in one but if i had to choose one it would be this classic here, everyone knows how the vampires work, ability to have an extra outfit and be immortal-love the perk system

9/10 point off for the ugly transformed faces

This, werewolfs, and realm of magic thematically should have been one single pack. The newly added moon phase tracker and Sims 3 DLC is proof enough.
