My thought on the Goth refresh.
Thought not thoughts.. maybe? I am not too impressed. One why is Mortie look older than Bella I thought they met when they were the same age as children. I cannot stand Cassie, with that hair, o...

@PugLove888 I'm again quoting one of the SimGurus who said they have much bigger team and more resources than they ever had. All I need to hear is that if they will work on the lore and to what extent - what I imagine behind lore in terms of Goths is their rich family tree Bella. So honestly, I just want that simple conformation, that is all
@PatrickClSim3Low , if that is the case, then fair enough! 😎 However, there is the chance that while the
developers have more resources, it could also be the case that their bosses tell them how to allocate those resources, which could explain why certain aspects of the game get more attention than the others, even if it is something that the players or even the developers would like to give more attention to.
As for family trees, the Sims 4 family trees have always been glitchy, and not as comprehensive as the ones in TS2 and TS3. This might be why they didn't redo the Goth family tree, but if that is the case then they should have never mentioned that they were going to go more detail into the Goth's lore (unless all that lore was confined to the town of Willow Creek) . As a fan of lore and sprawling family trees in TS2 and TS3, I do agree that this was a misstep, unless that is to come a little bit later. 🤷♀️🤞
@TeoTeoTe0 I agree with you. I like the final result of the remake much better than the concept art, and I also don't understand why they had to do concept art in the first place, when they could just give us a "rough draft" in CAS. 🤔
My only guess is that maybe they felt that if they gave us a preliminary look in CAS that players might have thought those designs were set in stone and might even have started looking for the revamped family either in the game or on the gallery back when the redo was first announced! 😅
Is there a reason why Mortimer wears the same suit for everyday, party, hot(!) and cold weather?
@valohim666 I like your idea! 🥳
@kusurusu , most likely he has enough money to just buy duplicates of his favorite suit. 🤣 But yes, I would certainly have given him a more breathable Hot Weather outfit! Poor guy must be sweltering!🥵 I might have to change that! In one of my saves I gave him a hat for his Cold Weather outfit.
I also changed Cassandra's swim bottoms to match the swim top because I think it looked stupid with the baggy shorts. I do wish Bella was wearing the iconic shaped dress of hers, and not just a red dress. Her Party dress looks closer to the original. But the rest of the clothing I like! 😎I have mixed feelings. I love the new Cassandra, and I think Bella is beautiful, and of course I love that they have non-whitewashed skintones, but I think I prefer the old Alexander. Part of that is because I miss his adorable sweater vest and preppy vibe, and part of it is because, well.
Old Alexander looks a bit odd when he ages up--I'm thinking of the ears and the nose in particular--but my Sims have married old Alexander in a couple of saves so it's not the end of the world. New Alexander looks very, very odd when he ages up. It'll take a while for me to get used to that.
For reference, here's one of my recent teen age-ups of old Alexander:
<3 so adorable! (Okay, I did plastic surgery on his ears and made him less frowny...)
Obviously, this isn't a problem limited to Alexander. Here's a YouTube video by someone else on the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfXn_0O7DUo
And for reference, here's my YA age up of Cassandra in the same save... you can tell you've inspired me.Ready for University!
