The Sims 4 moving away from its kid friendly themes?

As much as I want to be optimistic with you, no. I do not think they are, at all really. Starting when I was in Preschool I listened to Disturbed, Papa Roach, etc. because of my father. In elementary school my school bus played hip hop all the way to and back from school. My bus driver even organized a little thing to have us sing Smack That by Akon (think that is how he spelled his name) for the principal.

When it comes to music, as long as most of the swears are semi censored, most people do not care what kids sing. They just think they don't understand and that it is fine. Oh, and this was not some super liberal school either. They'd meltdown if you wore a hat inside and it was a small enough school that they could get away with having regular Christian elements present.

I'm not sure it would mean a change in direction for the game, but maybe for their trailers, they hired Luumia to work on them and he has a certain style and makes cc which I think appeals more to older people.

I doubt that. Its not the first time they have added adultier music styles. They dont wanna mess with their rating or their sales.

Oh how I wish we could have some less kiddy content like romance ... and such

not exactly fan of this song in particular tho...just feeling a little Crumplebottom about it I guess

*gets in crumplebottom gear and goes to spa to slap multiple sims for being improper in public *

Is that Meagan Thee Stalion? Sorry I'm at work and can't listen to it at full blast.

I don't think the Sims has ever been "family friendly". Have you forgotten "Hot in Herre" on the Summer station in Seasons? :D :D

I honestly would love some more "adult" gameplay in my sims game.

It's Saweetie. I thought the song was fine, has a nice rhythm to it, I never listen to the lyrics, but I think they were very fitting with the trailer.

Not a fan of this song. I don't think it fits the spa theme at all. I think of spas as relaxing. This song is not relaxing. The first couple of times I watched the trailer, I had to mute it. I have watched it since, with the music. I still don't think it is a good match.

I don't think that this signals a more adult turn for the sims. I think it just signals that Luumia made the trailer.

The song sounds a lot better without the censorship lol. It has a better flow.

Maybe it's a hint at a dance pack with twerking? Get Together had the Dance Skill, maybe they'll let us twerk on the ghosts in the Von Haunt Estate.

I really dont like this.
