Summary
- Sims 4 player recreates Charmed in game, honoring the iconic TV series.
- Players can use expansion packs and custom content to create unique Sims.
- Fans celebrate post, remembering the impact of Charmed and actress Shannen Doherty.
A Sims 4 player has created a tribute to Charmed, the WB television show, featuring all four of the sisters. It's a nice callback to the classic witchy TV series that's been a hit for years, reimagined in Sims 4 form.
In The Sims 4, players are free to create just about any Sim they can dream up. If the tools and assets they need aren't available in the base game, The Sims 4's expansion packs and DLC may have what they need, or they can pull custom content from the internet built by other creators. That's what this fan did, combining multiple assets to create one cohesive creation celebrating Charmed.
Reddit user and Sims 4 player Vlately shared their creation with players on the game's main subreddit. A pair of screenshots show the iconic Halliwell Manor with the four sisters Phoebe, Prue, Paige, and Piper standing in front of it, embracing for a photo in Brindleton Bay. According to the OP, the house was made by another fan called BereSims20 on the Sims Gallery. The sisters, on the other hand, are individual Sims based upon the actresses who played the characters. Vlately customized them with custom content hairstyles that better suit the characters as they were portrayed on the show. Vlately has shared the sisters in the Sims Gallery under the username Vinnylately, so anyone who likes this particular recreation of The Charmed Ones can download it to their own game.
Sims 4 Players Respond to Charmed Post
It seems plenty of people still remember the Charmed show with fondness, based on the comments on Vlately's post. Many applauded them for their creation, with some feeling inspired to rewatch the series. Another responded with curiosity as to why there were four women, when the series had always emphasized the "Power of Three." The original series started with Prue, Piper, and Phoebe, but after Shannen Doherty left the series, the new half-sister character, Paige, joined in her stead. However, with this being The Sims, players can imagine their worlds however they like, and these four can actually live together at the same time.
The recent passing of Shannen Doherty has likely brought the Charmed series to mind for a lot of fans. Although she was only present for the first three seasons of the show, she left a strong impression on viewers, especially with the unexpected way they wrote her character Prue out of Charmed. The loss of the actress is truly saddening, but it's clear that her acting legacy isn't going to be forgotten anytime soon.
