TheSims.com redesign looks incredible bad

Get your plum together EA, the sims is starting to become a joke.

smh, geezzzz :s

I agree with you all on the color saturation, especially that bright blue that has white text on it. Its really does burn. It looks like the design was optimized for print, rather than digital. I wonder if the color choices pass WCAG guidelines for accessibility...?

It's mostly fine until you get to the stuff pack page , the expansion page is also too bright. The pack logos are inconsistent and the Get Famous title image is broken. Otherwise, it's fairly normal, trendy web design despite the garish colors.

Actually, now that I've looked at them more, the EP logos are driving me extra crazy with inconsistent lettering AND plumbob style. :s :s I no longer think they spent too much money on graphic design, haha. :D :s

I mean, I’ve seen much worse but it still hurts my eyes a bit.

It looks very dated and cheap.

Meanwhile in the design department...

A. "We need to appeal to more kids! Time for a rebrand!"
B. "I know! Let's have a toddler pick the new colours!"
A. "GENIUS. Nothing could go wrong with that!"

Disclaimer: This likely did not happen, but it might have.

That is truly devastating to the senses. I need to go lie down in a dark room now :D

What were they thinking?

Hey, at least it's not a bright yellow. XD

But seriously, that dark blue font over the mid tone blue is just ah. ? How does one even read the words?
