I like the present rating - I just think the devs need less childish silliness - not a higher rating - as it would be unfair to a whole lot of people who presently play as well as all those who would want to play from watching their parents play. Over half the people in my family who play the Sims started playing as early as 11. The game is quite popular with pre-teens and teens - as most of simmers know - seeing many now say they were those ages when they started.
Why alienate all those people?
Then, more than request than TS4 maintain T rating, would be desiderable than Origin has not parental control
After all, who avoid play a M or A game if your account say you are T?
Origin parental control
So you would be happy knowing young people under 18 who had been playing the game for several years could no longer play it because they changed the rating. As that is what would happen. Several of my family members have their games under their parents account because they are not 18 yet. They cannot go to games rated M at all on those accounts even though their parents can. So there is parental control on Origin.
Again, not that I particularly want or need M rated stuff, but it does feel like the easiest way to get around this problem is to make anything M-rated optional and skippable DLC. It wouldn't take away from the gameplay of people who like it as is, and would add gameplay for people who want more mature themes.
Then parents could still let their kids play the game by just never buying to M-for-Mature Game Pack or whatever. And while I don't know that
I would buy it, I'd be fine if they made it because 1. some people would enjoy it very much and 2. it would DEFINITELY sell, and they could use that money to fund some more ambitious stuff for the rest of the game.
