The preview was better than I expected. I like the fact that it is completely customisable. Although I would have preferred to see this with the other gender options and not next to the name. I hope we can change these pronouns for servos as well.
What worries me a bit is that this will only be available in English. What does this mean for sims shared on the gallery when people play the game in different languages? What will I see when I download sims from people playing the game in English? Will I see the chosen pronouns or just get the default? Or will I see the custom ones but lack the interface to change them myself? Will English speaking simmers get sims with missing information if they download my sims? This is all really complex.
Very good point. I knew German has dative and accusative but never realised the implication on needing a fourth pronoun for these kind of options.

Looks good far, but I'm really curious to see how this is going to translate into other languages. The core concept is obviously based on the English language, where the dative and accusative cases are always the same ("them" in this particular case), but in my language, the dative and accusative cases are actually different words, so we would need a fourth option... and that's just German. I've heard of languages with even more cases.
