I'm also quite bothered by this updating of iconic Sims in this version. If they wanted to "fix" premades they could give them seasonal outfits and adjust relationships that make them match their backstories, or tweak their hair, I'm looking at you Dina, not change them completely. I've played this game for 7 years, the premades are like a familiar set of stock characters that appear in every new game . And yes, I know I can replace them with Maxis gallery originals, but the Goth family is not even related to each other in that file!!! Why weren't the makeovers downloads and the originals default?
Ok, I'm not a total purest, I use the 17th anniversary Pancakes as my default. Iggy grows up good looking in my games, the genetic pancake offspring I've had, not so much.
