Sims 2 "First-Born Syndrome" Genetics Bug
I am writing to bring attention to a long-standing issue in The Sims 2 known as the "First-Born Syndrome" genetics bug. This bug causes the first baby born in each play session to have identical gene...

This is why I always “roll the pacifier” or randomize sim genetics on sims blender prior to any baby being born.
Rolling the pacifier is temporary workaround, but a patch should be released.
I understand, but it’s a 21 year old game and no one in the custom content community ever successfully (to my knowledge) made a patch for this, therefore I don’t think it’s possible. I would suggest just to develop a habit of rolling the pacifier anytime you run the game. I know it can be annoying but once it’s a habit it’s not to bad.
As a long legacy gameplayer this game may be 21 years old, but I'm a new player, and I used to enjoy observing the gene transfer in newborn babies, especially in families with many children. After noticing this, I lost the desire to play.
