I'm surprissed for your reception! Elders deserves better!
Mid adults can be a new transition age, much like pre-teens if the supossed High School EP include thems.
Another potential gameplay could be communitary bingo lots, tai chi for elders and new interactions for pets.
Definitely Bingo. And tai chi would be great! I think the whole concept of age needs to be redefined in this game. I very rarely put any of my sims in the elder category unless they’re meant to be really old… and by that I mean ancient…because I find the back cracking, stooped posture stereotype off putting. I keep active elders in the adult category and provide age details in CAS. My mom is 88 and she is still completely independent. Has she slowed down a bit? Sure. But she’s a far cry from the stereotypical “old folk” we have in game. I’m retired myself, but most people think I’m in my 40’s, not just based on appearance, but on approach to life. If 60 is the new 40, you’d never know it in The Sims.
