LOL I know quite a few women who like sport style games too. Rocket League is quite popular right now even though not an EA game of course. With the small towns it does feel like that. Not all of us live under a rock thankfully. But yeah that stereotyping is ruining the franchise. It does feel like those are the only two things the game is catering to and being that niche will keep a lot of potential future customers away. You summed up Sims 4 direction really well. I just know the bay area where the studio is more diverse than that. Sims community is more diverse than that too. I just don't understand the censorship of the Sims games these days. They are playing too safe. I want them to start taking risks with gameplay and they have started to but still a long way to go to get to the level of risk E-Teen games are taking these days. Gaming has changed and sad when EA can't even keep up with the soccer mom's Disney is doing these days which already has the reputation of being behind in diversity. There is a comic that has been shown with many of my state jobs that sums up what EA is doing with their games which is equality but they need to get to the equity level to reach more customers.

I remember when Sims Medieval had an option to Duel to the Death, but once we got Lightsabers we didn't get the option, Lightsabers are even more deadlier than swords and only force sensitives like Luke, Anakin, Obi-wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Yoda, Maul, Starkiller and Sidious should be wielding such weapons, even some of them lost a limb or two, hell Anakin used his lightsaber to murder children, I was disappointed that they weren't lethal or the fact that we didn't even get force powers with the pack, Disney and Katleen Kennedy didn't stick to the lore or the multitude of Star Wars sources and gave us a bad fanfic with unlikable characters, I'll rather have the Lucas version of the Sequel trilogy where Darth Maul and his Twi'lek Sith apprentice Darth Talon are the villains and were running the criminal underworld, at this point The Mandalorian and Baby Yoda are the only things keeping Disney Star Wars afloat.
True. But yes exactly playing too safe. New Spiderman game in the meantime looks amazing and has Miles as Spider-Man from Into the Spiderverse. Disney owns Marvel now too, so seems like that game will sell well for them. I do love the Mandalorian. It stunk they switched directors during the last trilogy so lore was all over the place. Lego games are probably selling well for them too. I just don't understand why EA wants to stay so out of date with their games. They need to invest in upgrading their systems and marketing and direction otherwise who knows Disney might buy them out too just like they have with everything else. Why EA not having culture is bad for business because their business between Disney will go beyond the contract that expires in 3 years. They'll become Disney's lapdog.
