As someone with severe health issues and several food allergies, I was kinda like mmm when I saw lactose intolerance. It's not a trait. It's a pain in the bum condition, that often comes with other allergies and diseases. And you don't get to choose it. And while, logically, it makes more sense to be unable to drink cows milk meant for calves than to be able to drink it. In this dairy heavy world, it sucks.
So when I saw the early access playthroughs of sims going on themselves bc of their intolerance and having drunk milk, I was kinda ticked. It's not funny. Bowel problems aren't funny. And while it adds realism by not being able to eat certain things. The only real game play is pooing yourself. Which is irritating.
Where's the trying soy ice cream and coconut milk ice cream to see which tastes better? Neither. Where's the accidentally eating something you're allergic to and running to the bathroom or being up all night. Where's the good feels from taking care of your body? Or trying those lactose pills that don't work ??
They just threw it in like ooh " lactose intolerance "
