I would love it. I honestly don't know why the game makes it so difficult for something like ethical polyamory to exist in game without mods or cheats. And then you can't be married to multiple people.
But if you want to just wreck relationships, lie, cheat, etc, that's literally all fine. Like I'm not saying take that out. Play how you want.
But then don't turn around and be like oh no your happy non-hierarchical poly unit that wants to marry eachother and raise the kids, nope. Also everyone should be jealous.
Like the only trait that supports multiple relationships is literally called "Player" and if you don't cheat it, one of the requirements is to cheat.
Then they not only upped how jealous sims get, they released a trait for it. And now there's a Loyal trait. And that one literally only recognizes monogamous relationships, as if loyalty can only be given once.
It's like how you can only have 1 bff unless you use a mod.
This whole game has weird ideas on how you're allowed to feel and form relationships. While at the same time saying the fact that You felt and formed them supercedes anything that preceeded so go ahead and break up anything that came before. If you're going to give freedom, give poly freedom too. And own up to your other promises for the lgbtqia+ community while you're at it.
Tldr: Yes make it possible for polyamory to exist ethically in game, including marriage, raising a family, the whole shebang.
You don't have to get rid of the stuff you have now it can be used for other gameplay. Maybe you actually Want a sim who is a player. But it'd be nice just to have a sim who could be poly.
