Relationship dynamics leave much to be desired

I love playing The Sims, especially with Sims 4 allowing you to express your gender how you feel. My favorite way to play is to make the people I love and have the people in my life reflected in a game as a family.

The only problem is I can't have my real family, because you aren't allowed to be in a committed relationship with more than one person.

I am married (with a child) and both of us are dating someone, who is also dating another person. If I want to have my character have a relationship with two people, I can't have him married.

It would be amazing if the developers could put out a patch allowing committed relationships with multiple people. I know I'm not the only person who would love this as a game option.

    After all, this game is Pegi 12.. If you want to have it all - you have no choice, You have to download some mods.
    Of course, as there will be new versions of these mods. For now, after the patch, no mods are working
    I don't work for EA

    Polyamory isn't inherrently sexual or NSFW. It's just a relationship style. And considering you can currently have casual relationships with multiple people, I don't see why allowing them to be committed is such a problem.

    It's like how the Sims have been allowed to date people of the same gender with no problem. And now you can have obviously trans characters and gay couples can produce their own kids.

    I want it as part of the game, not something I have to go out of my way to get. (I'm also on Xbox and have no idea if I can even mod this version or how.)

    I actually was using the chat function and they told me to post it in the forums because the development team comes on here.

    @Remmysaur, if the game will only allow you to have one BFF, then I can't imagine it allowing more than one spouse! 😉
