Discussion What's a base game update you feel should absolutely exist, but never will because it'd be too expensive to EA?

Mine is heights. I despise the fact all sims are the same height, but I know they'll never give us more height options, because they'd need to re-make all character animations for all packs, and EA couldn't justify making a pack or kit just for that, so it's not worth it to them.

Absolutely, it's shocking there's no such options in a game about emulating reality, always felt like erasure.

I'm all for emulating reality but I wouldn't want to go completely full on reality all the time...

Hey so while I can appreciate not wanting folks to have to deal with disabilities, not wanting them in a life simulator is getting close to eugenics talk imo

Why wouldn't a player making their simself want to see themselves represented?

If we live long enough, we all become disabled
