It’s definitely been a while since we’ve gotten a brand new Emotional State in The Sims 4!
Other than getting Possessed thanks to The Sims 4 Strangerville Game Pack there haven’t been any other significant Emotion additions to the game since the release of the Base Game.
However, it seems that things are about to change with the upcoming The Sims 4 Paranormal Stuff Pack.
SimGuruConor shared a new image of a brand new Scared emotional state that’s getting introduced with Paranormal Stuff. You can check out the preview down below:
Not only that but SimGuruConor also confirmed that the new Scared Emotional State will be introduced for free in the upcoming Base Game content update!
This will be basegame!

He later confirmed what went behind creating the new Scared Emotion. Some of the buffs that we’ve gotten from the Base Game and Sims 4 Packs will now give your Sims the Scared Emotional State. For example – Thunderstorms will now properly make your Sims Scared instead of Tense!
Well besides ghosts, I converted like 60 something basegame and crosspack buffs to the Scared Emotion. If the buff had “scared” or “phobia” in the name, it probably got converted!

Its basegame! I agree Tense didnt feel right, so now Sims should be properly Scared of Thunderstorms
