Ugh I know I can watch the replay but I'm sad I won't be home to watch it live and participate in the chat ?
I love these little livestreams they do.

It's okay @Babykittyjade , I won't be watching it live either! I usually just read a recap after, but we can watch the replay and have our own chat if you want. :smile:

I'm watching it right now before I read about the updates ???

They mentioned wanting feedback on the changes to the NPC Townies. I think that you should keep in mind that when Simmers talk about fixing Townies that they want them to reflect on previous games along with giving them warm and cold-weather outfits. Meaning that Simmers want the characters to look like they did in previous games. Fake Gamer Girl did an awesome job when she remade these characters to look like their Sims 2 versions. What we saw on the live stream did not really reflect the previous versions of the characters. If I had to choose between what was shown and what we have to keep in my game, I would probably keep what I have. However, out of the four I liked Mortimore the most.

I think you can tweet directly at simgurujessica as I believe she was the one taking feedback and also responded to some feedback on Twitter. I might have the wrong guru though I'm not sure.

@SimGuruFrost
Pretty good Inside Maxis if I do say so myself.

Recap:
Inside look at Modern Menswear Kit w/ Stefan Cooke
Pronouns Update coming January 2022
First look @ updated NPCs
Neighborhood Stories feature
New Holiday Scenario
New SDX content

I just wish that there had been more moderation of the chat. I saw some things being taken down but not all the toxicity.

I wish people would realize that even if something isn't to your taste, it doesn't mean that it isn't something that *others* have been begging to have. So many people saying "this isn't masculinity" when it's just another aspect (even if it's not *their* aspect.) While it would be lovely to have more "mainstream" masculine clothes, we do get some with every pack. Not so with the sort of things in the new kit. It's not to my taste but I celebrate that others I've seen saying they wished for this can *finally* have them. (And those who don't like them, aren't stuck with having them because they want the gameplay in the pack.)

I'm hoping Bella looks more like this once they've finished with her


I'm glad they're going back to update the NPCs.

I'm glad they're going back to update the NPCs. But they need to look at warming Bella, Nina, and Dina's skintones. I understand these are just concepts, but I hope they're seeing the feedback of them regardless. Love what they've done with Mortimer!
