I'm actually mad about the handling of the werewolf GP. They hid the main aspirations behind a single-tier CAS aspiration, only to reveal the four main werewolf aspirations as single-tier aspirations as well. To add to the insult, 3/4 of these single-tier aspirations are inextricably tied to either the NPC factions the devs invented or their NPC's, and the fourth plays into the worst trope in werewolf media: "the search for a cure"! What kind of bunkus is that?!
Then, the situation with female werewolf body customization is just a hot mess. The more I dig into how to fix the problem, the more horrifying the discoveries become: A base body model that was deliberately made with a flat chest and masculine proportions, a slider reference model with less hip and waist flexibility than the normal female slider references, things deliberately coded in to keep breasts from appearing on female werewolves when clothed whether you're using a slider mod or not by not giving female werewolves the "Breasts_ForceOn" trait automatically in CAS...It's not just an oversight, they went to all-out war against the female body here! That's unacceptable, especially considering their "Inclusivity to the Max" branding over the past several years!
So, yeah, I'm mad. I waited 8 years for werewolves in this game, through garbage like tiny homes and home makeover and an eco pack that includes extreme pollution without mutagen or monsters...and they give us this? They give us aspirations that are more restricted than the ones for vampires and spellcasters (the other two occults that got their own packs)? They give us forced masculinity on our female werewolves with less body shape customization than female sims normally have, even as they wrap their game in pride flags and act like they care about freedom of gender expression? No way to make our own werewolf packs, no way to even fake them with the GTW club system because they didn't add using werewolf abilities as a club activity in order to force players to join their NPC factions and play with their precious OC's? That's some mess...
