I honestly play with Realm of Magic a lot - I remade the Goths as evil spellcasters and created a rival good family - but there are some things I wish it had: - a degree in University - at least one career path - storage, like the the refrigerators or flower arranging table, where spellcasters could store their potion ingredients (they just have to carry them forever in their inventory) - ability to enter the greenhouse and shop buildings LOVE the art nouveau build stuff. Practical magic is so useful. Cats and dogs who are familiars can stop the Grim Reaper from taking your sim.

I think I've mentioned this on a previous video, but I *wish* they had gameplay for child spellcasters. Accidental magic, maybe a new childhood magic skill, a few of the less OP spells available for children. It could have even been an opportunity for imaginary friends, or the ability for children to make their toys come to life as playable sims. (Think the big stuffed animals) I think that would be hilariously fun! Especially on playthroughs with normie parents who have a magical child.

What a coincidence because I actually just started ‘replaying’ realm of magic to give my teen sim striving for a career in biology some more ‘gameplay’ since she can make potions as a spell caster. The build mode is definitely the best part, the gameplay is subpar, you spend most of your time reading books to learn spells. But hey when you spend your whole bank account and mix this pack with other packs, you can get a decent storyline going.

Let’s be honest, everyone that has this pack and every other occult packs will use speed 3x all the time (including me). it’s a little sad because they are the coolest animations in the game, but that’s just what they are, only animations. In my opinion, the fantasy packs need more personality and gameplay, not animations. Imagine a spellcaster with an Evil trait or high in the mischief skill pulling a scheme to win a duel, or simply having any interaction in duels at all. Same goes for werewolves and vamps. Imagine a paranormal investigator, influencing the ghosts to make the haunting worse. Still my favorite pack though

tbf, regarding cross-pack integration. i think you can use the scrubberoo spell on pets, which is really handy. There was a glitch where you can't do it on toddlers, but i think Little Ms Sam fixed that one. I like your ideas about secret doors and other CAS items. Also I totally agree the world sucks. I think it's worse than the vampire one. At least there, they gave us a picnic location. I think there is a fishing spot.... that's about it.

Realm of Magic was when I switched to Sims 4. Bizarrely because it makes the game more realistic. How? With the Transportalate spell you can get from upstairs to the curb in five minutes instead of 45. With Delicioso spell you can make a sandwich in 5 minutes instead of 30. With Scrubberoo spell you can dry a puddle or clean the counter in 5 minutes instead of 30. Yes, there are spells and potions that are basically cheats; I use those if the game cheats first, but mostly I just use a handful of practical spells. But yeah, they could easily have made this into a full expansion pack with a lot more items and features. There are a few mods but most of them have their own theme, like Fairies vs Witches, it's a great mod but it tells its own story rather than expanding on the sense of awe we saw a glimpse of in the pack trailer.

I wish the occult packs didn't allow players to over-level their talent tree and restrict us to only certain perks, like having a spellcaster who's decently good at all magic but can't master everything or one who can put a focus on destruction magic but their spells from other trees will never be at their best for example

Sims 4 magic is one of the rare things that allows you to actually kill another sim😅 just thow fire spell near that sim. I remember playing thievery challenge and first thing I did is made my sim a spellcaster to just distract my victims with fire. I also have vivid memory of me casting a spell near two kids (a child and a toddler), and their mother grabbed a toddler, got him to safety and then just stood there with a toddler in her arms watching her older kid burns to death 😅 that was a unique experience

I feel like in the worlds there are a lot of missed opportunities. To your point having a rivalry with other occults (which we got with vampires and werewolves recently). I’m doing a rotational occult legacy (short lifespan) game and I really wish they had the rivalry. For vampires, Forgotten Hollow has the little island in the middle of the water feature I’d love to know more about and also what looks like an abandoned mine which could have been an easy rabbit hole. Sulani is so beautiful but the mermaids were an afterthought. Wouldn’t an underwater kingdom have been cool? I just hope they go back to refreshing some packs and get to these. There is much potential.

On my current game i made one sim and am having her play all the packs and do all the things. This may seem like an obvious thing to do but i had been stuck in a loop of always making families and having drama between multiple households and having fun that way but when you do that it can be hard to experience everything. And my current sim is on her own doing all the things and its great. I decided to start with realm of magic and it was the best decision ever. Because while she was digging in the jungle or preparing to fight the motherplant thing she had all these potions she made for filling needs and fixing moodlets. Starting her off as a spellcaster made everything go so much easier and faster.

THEY need to make it so that potion-making is a skill which can be learned by everyone (but faster for spellcasters) and you slowly learn recipes by leveling up and practicing on the cauldron and doing other interactions with it. You can also look in the library for a specific potion recipe. Would be way better, as I want my sim to make a specific potion for a specific use of the story but I don't want to turn them into a spellcaster, why cant humans grab ingredients and stir the pot?

You can collect crystals and different types of wands/brooms/familiars if you check the shops every day. Eventually the wands and brooms will just be color variants on what you already have, but I have liked hanging all of them on my walls. They totally dropped the ball on this though, I was so disappointed once I realized the shop area was 90% useless. We didn't even get magical pets like in other sims games, and we can't even "fly" on the brooms, it basically just teleports us. I do absolutely adore the items it comes with and i use them all the time. Especially the windows and bed that can be customized

To be honest for me it is the most fun pack to play it. There are no interesting stories in the pack [like in most other packs], but I like wizard mechanics and the cas and build and buy is cute. I use them in almost every sim and every build. Yes, it is OP, but this OPness is fun for me. Recently I made a wizard that was ugly and untalented, but he made a beautiful vampire actress fall in love with him and become his wife and he was able to get his dream girl with potions. He also made a ton of money by stealing everything from Charms' house, using the stealing spell. I absolutely love this pack!

My problem with the pack is that it feels incomplete and poorly executed in many aspects, for example and not counting the constructions that are horrible, since there are three superior wizards they could have created three magic houses inside the school where they change the type of magic the sims do depending on which one you choose, also, that they could have created a story that we must complete to "Revive" the other magic world, for example that after completing a part of the mission the abandoned place becomes a greenhouse and a functional plot where you can plant/find special flowers with which you can unlock more magic positions, that there really are magic contests like a potion contest or broom races to win wands, brooms, familiars or material to make positions and depending on the position you end up in is the ones you win or just look for or place some more activity in the hidden plot other than going to become a wizard, buy some stuff and never come back, they could have even created a story where there were 4 great wizards but one of them was banished for doing black magic, creating another type of magic that the sims can learn only if they look for this magician and ask him to teach them, although this would make the other magicians turn against your sim, I don't know, there were so many things to take advantage of this pack and I feel that it is so wasted and empty...

The thing about magical dueling is that using the Build Charge magical self-interaction or just having a medium or so magical charge is helpful for duels as well as the duelist spellcaster perks. Unless a spellcaster is a sage... or perhaps a spellcaster who spawned at the Realm of Magic or is currently at the Realm of Magic (I'm just guessing here), having a fair bit of magical charge should sway duels in your favor if you don't have duelist perks.

Because of the way it changes the gameplay, I consider this to be an "almost essential" game pack. But I still hate it because it reuses assets, mainly from the Scientist career. And in doing so, it took away just about everything unique Get To Work still had. And using this pack really does feel like cheating. Your sim has needs to look after? Potion of Plentiful Needs will fix you right up, you just need one apple to make four potions. Death got you down? Focus on learning spells and before long you too can bring back the dead. It's EASY! No money? Find something valuable and a little copypasto will leave you wealthy. As for learning the spells, why bother with books? You've got three mentors all ready and waiting to teach you all the spells in the game. Just make friends and ask. It might take a few in-game days, but you can master everything from Realms of Magic without touching a single book. Once you learn Decursify (spell and/or potion) you can just duel for knowledge if you want to. The most junior spellcaster can teach you the most advanced spells that way.

If they went full out on it and had put that to build mode it could be a perfect pack for me but that’s alright. Plus the thing about changing weather, having toddlers wreak havoc with magic and way more chaos I think personally. What about the kids being able to make a car fly at full power? Would’ve been so funny.

My biggest complaints in the pack were: 1) it was way too easy to max out spellcaster levels, but once you’re maxed out you haven’t earned enough points to complete the skill tree. So now you’re practicing magic to get points (which take forever and only give you one per bar full) but have nothing to aspire towards. I didn’t find any of the unlockables that compelling once I had maxed out. And I feel like once I completed the rankings I was kind of done with my gameplay. Something about an occult sim with nothing left to achieve is way more boring than a regular sim who never had any goals in the first place. 2) familiars do nothing. I was hoping for a least a friendship bar and a few basic interactions (like the scarecrow from seasons or animals from cottage living. Not even pet level complexity). Nope. All you can do is summon, name, and dismiss them

I have to be honest out of all game packs I think this is the funnest one to me. I did enjoy this game pack. I bet this is a better game pack than Horse Ranch Expansion Pack. Lol. I would almost bet there’s more to do in this realm of magic game pack then their is to to do with the new Horse Ranch expansion pack. Realm of magic felt more like an expansion pack to me. And the paranormal stuff pack felt like a game pack. Paranormal stuff was by the far the richest stuff pack. But realm of magic actually has its own vibe to it, which I appreciate. Even though the new town is extremely small it still has a “Feeling” to it, versus just another sunny neighborhood. Also like forgotten hollow in vampires that is different too. It’s not necessarily that supernatural themes are my favorite but it’s what the sims 4 actually does good on if anything. They seem to take their time on a lot of it. I feel more passion from them with supernatural themes in the sims 4 than I do for other themes in the game.

My biggest dissapointments about this pack (there are more but these are the biggest ones) are: 1. They advertised so much lore about the magic realm yet none of it is part of the game. 2. How exploitative it is. Like yes wizards will be OP thats in the name but give us limitations, dangers and drawbacks so every OP spell cast can also come with side effects that might make me reconsider using the powers. Its so easy to avoid the current drawbacks its insane.

I love the windows if you change the swatch on one it has the most needed double hung window needed for many builds, before the high schools years came out with a normal double hung window. The houses in the world are the horrid and could be so nice. I always say I am going to sit down and play this game pack's gameplay, but then I forget, and get caught up in my other sims soap operas.

I got this pack on sale and I was still a little disappointed. I love the CAS, build and concept but it feels like something is missing? I think it would have benefit from more gameplay depth. Eg. The greenhouse, why is it not useable? Smh

as an OG sims player the Making Magic pack was my life, the baby dragon is my literally favorite thing in the sims franchise. This one is awful its not even fun to play as spell caster the only thing worth it is build mode.

We need a Realm of Magic refresh with more cross-pack functionality! I'd really like to be able to influence the weather and interact with pack features in other interesting ways! I really hope that's possible now that they've confirmed they'll keep supporting the Sims 4 for the foreseeable future 😅

I just wish that time in realm of magic does not affect regular world or atleast time move slower. In sims 2 I would nornally brew potions and create stuff in magic world and then use the magic chair to keep the needs up, complete my potions and learn all spells collection there before going back to my lot atleast that way I could do other stuff in the regular world.

I wish the other stores in the realm would unlock with packs. Like vampire pack? We have a lore store. Werewolf pack? We have a lore store. Paranormal pack? You won't believe this. Our stores are ran by literal ghosts. I mean doesn't the realm almost always end up being in charge of all these things

I really don't like that every magical duel looks like the Harry Potter and Voldemort thing. That only happened, because their wands where connected by the Phoenix feather. Because you see it everywhere, it feels boring and even the colours are copied most of the time, so I cannot help but roll my eyes, every time I see that effect.

Realm of Magic is definitly my favorite Sims 4 GP, qnd DEFINITLY NEEDS A REFRESH, please EA😢😢 Speaking of the unexisting super rare special items, I don't know if this is a bug, but with many wands, there are two variants, and the game only leave you get one variant, the unique way to get the other variant is buying it in Buy mod with cheats😕. And its a chame, because there are very cute.

I wonder if the sims team are gonna update all the packs based on what people have complained most about after it came out because in realm of magic they could have done so much more, and I don’t really get why we can’t even live in that magical world, or where u can change the weather or have cool special interactions with other occults, magic for toddlers and children, and the fact that the shops there are just rabbit holes while in sims 3 they had open shops for witches, it was more fun and more gameplay in ts3 smh

Honestly i think they went totally off with the vibes of the pack. I would prefer really just to be witchy vibes, dark and spooky, ou at least dark academia to kinda resemble Harry Potter. The world is lacking, gameplay is kinda fun but lacks some variety (like even some little things like the color of the magic), wish we had more magical mobilia just like you said, and more things overall, like familiars having more usage, different wands actually doing different things, being able to live im magical world and even more magical creatures, this pack feels so lacking for an occult that has so many possibilities and could be so much cooler.
