I use the game purely as escapism, I don't wish to be represented, I just want to play. Others feel differently and would like more representation and that's fine. As long as developers have their priorities right, because representation doesn't mean much if the game doesn't work as it should. Bugs and technical issues should come first.
On another note, personally there are some aspects of my life (that I won't discuss) that people have asked to be brought into the Sims, if that did happen then I would no longer be comfortable playing.
So many people play the Sims and everyone wants a different kind of game.
