I don't think you can like/dislike a sim based on weight, if they have piercings or tattoos, eye color, or body hair.
I noticed that too. I think that has to do with wanting to be inclusive and being afraid of insulting anyone (a part of this anxious time we live in), but I do believe it's a mistake. I can sort of get why when it comes to weight, but the rest shouldn't be that controversial.
100 agree. I never expected skin color or body type to be included. But the others don't feel controversial. Outfit color just feels silly.
I was hoping to be able to create a chubby chaser, but now I have to settle for a sim whose interest is triggered by clothes colour? 🤔
The hilarious part of the clothing attraction is that it's so temporary.
"I love my spouse! Oh wait, did he just put on a green shirt? Ew, time for a divorce."
I understand they probably don't want to wade into the waters of attraction to overweight/underweight. But things like piercings/tattoos are optional modifications in real life, so what's the harm in including them? And if you can be turned on/off by a hair color, why not body hair? (And they have no problem with putting in an interaction where sims can mock another sim's body hair, so...)
Personally I would have at least added piercings, tattoos, glasses, eye color and body hair to make it more robust.
Personally I would been okay skin tone was included.People have those preferences in real life it's not bad.I am not suprise is not included.
It doesn’t matter about what people really like in real life. It’s about what they thinks is acceptable to people and what is going to get people angry or not. What might ensue a boycott or just bad press.
Race was never going to be touched. Or did people forget what happened with snowy escape?
But everything else I don’t really get. I don’t see the difference between hair color and eye color. Hair length , facial hair, piercings, tattoos.
Body type was a TOTO in The Sims 2: Nightlife. (shrug).
