@AdamantEve - My childhood...

Nah, I probably ruined my childhood myself. But I do really like the sound of this EP. So much potential!

Hey, don't blame me! Not my fault your childhood is sexy.

That sounds a lot different than I meant it to. You know what I mean! :P

The only way this could be more exciting is if it included seasons. Hey, Makin' Magic had a distinctly autumn theme! Way too much sexy for EA to include in any single EP, though.

ETA: just noticed the beekeeping! Beeeeeekeeping. This is the first time I've felt truly excited for a TS3 EP. Oh please oh please oh please don't let EA ruin it.

@christmas_fear:

Showtime has magic, but more stage trickery, illusionist kind. This is the real deal. Alchemy, potion brewing and whatnot.


@AdamantEve:

Oh goddd. The mental image. Nooo... XD

Very true. Although I might have a crush on Mr. Tumnus now.

On the topic of the EP, I wonder if they will let us hybridize the creatures. I can see it now, a Vampire/Werewolf/Witch/Imaginary friend...

LOL, I remembered back in Sims 2 i have a hybrid PlantSim/Vampire. And the PlantSim state overrides the sunlight weakness.

4 parts neat, 6 parts hideous.

Also, images of most of the effects: http://simsvip.com/?page_id=8081

^ What is that? O_O

Finally. My Life Will Be Complete.

I predict a sharp increase in Harry Potter themed custom content. Oooh, I can't wait for a talented builder to construct Hogwarts.

From the little information we have, it already sounds more impressive than SHT.

It's worse when you see most of it on a Sim, Matrix. :/

I hope they do other creatures too then. I'm pretty happy we'll actually get witches.

I just realized something.

What if the Wardrobe is the portal...to...

...

Magic Town ?

That would be even better! :D
Although I prefer be directly in the magic world rather than going through a loading screen....

And if they do make a Magic Town (Or "Magic World", rather), if WA is any indication, it would be...Amazing!

I don't want to download the patch. But, I guess it needs some cleaning up (since I barely know what it is). before the mass produce more skin tone sliders.

Magic?! Carnivals?! Gypsies? WEREWOLVES?!

I think I just orgasmed a little bit.

Maybe the Lycanthropy skill is a hidden hunt skill?
I am genuinely excited for this and cross my fingers it will be real and I will be EXTREMELY disappointed if those sliders never see the day

I would not be surprised if somebody has already "extracted" the sliders to add in via a mod.

Wouldn't that be dangerous? in a legal sense...

Makin' Magic is my absolute favorite expansion pack of all time. I'm so pumped they're making it for the Sims 3.

Was anyone able to actually test out the sliders? I'm a little bit bewildered as to what "werewolf jaw" means.

If EA doesn't care about the mass distribution of their unprotected store files, I'm sure they won't mind if somebody makes possibly-eventually-dummied-out-anyway Sliders available from data they got from an erroneously delivered patch. :p

Still no weather... darn it EA! You're killing us!

Makin' Magic is my all time favorite part of The Sims games EVER, and it seems that they are going for that style again (hopefully)! I do hope that the new world will be made like WA worlds, sort of optionally separate realms to explore (but also with an option of fully residing & playing only in that magical world!)... I mean, witches and all that are AWESOME, but just not necessarily so much in urban worlds... And vice versa!

But man, EA sure ripped off everyone by releasing all that magic stuff at the store just before this... and AFTER people bought the "magic" from the store, they go ahead with a full-blown magic themed EP. Can you say $$$$$?! They really are some slinky sons of foxes!

I'm glad i haven't touched the magic store stuff...
