Well written! I agree with your assessment of the EA values. New content doesn't integrate smoothly with the existing game infrastructure.
Family tree, relationships and romance: In legacy play or a multi-generation household I've had closely related, autonomous flirting. If the family tree was functional or meaningful then a parent or a step parent, caregiver would not romance their teen, young adult or adult CHILD or siblings. Need a default setting restriction against incest.
EA pixelates nudity but allows the adult daughter and father to autonomously make out in front of the whole family when she comes home for a holiday. Makes no sense.
Make a toggle for players if they want, but I'm tired of broken families. Not excited about "Scandals".
