Regarding Premades Lore Updates
I like to play Sims 4 by giving lore to the premade for training my storytelling skill. Then I heard that there will be premade overhaul soon. Does that mean all my self-given lore will be gone? Hone...

I'm glad we got a heads up, because even though I couldn't care less about the majority of premades, there are some households that I am very attached to. These few I saved to my library to preserve them in the state they are now. The changes will only be in new saves, so I should be save, but on the other hand old saves sometimes break with patches or corrupt naturally, so having options is always good.
I expect small, unintrusive things like personalized swimwear for the basegame sims, along with more far reaching changes. They might also add new skills from the later packs to the premades, what could already lead into trampling over player decisions (are Wolfgang Munch and Ulrike Faust trained in Vampire lore or not?). They will definitely add Likes and Dislikes to everyone and this is where I draw the line. I don't want to spend hours to correct EA lore to my own. Or repair relationships, because EA WILL give the BFF women romance bars with Scott. They want us to play relationship drama with them, whereas I see these three as harmonic (either really only friends or a happy threemating). They may even go as far as adding Iggy to the Pancake family. I don't hate the little guy, but to me he is prove that Bob and Eliza repaired their relationship. So he shouldn't exist in the beginning of a new save.
Honestly, to me forcing lore or even visual changes into the game feels like an author taking over a fanfic site and correcting each and every fic with their own canon about the characters.
