What happened to the Sims 4 NPC/Townie Update?
Is this still happening? Frankly, there is no reason it should take this long to update the base game premade Sims.

Granted the EnglishSimmer is extra about outfits and adjusting faces, as well as needing to stream other stuff, but she's been working on a townie only personal save file for a few months now, she's not even half-way done, and her save file doesn't include farming out to other departments for specific features (hair, facial details, skin, makeup, etc.)
So between that and that the team assigned to work on the updates is probably not dedicated to it (and I think SimGuruRuskii was on that team and she just left EA) it makes sense that it would take a while.
As for why the pronoun update is connected, there are a hand full of non-binary sims already in the game (though they're all in expansion packs) and if they release the update before the pronouns are ready, they'll then have to do a new update again once the pronouns are ready.
Just commenting to add that I remember a statement by a Simguru that the NPC update is ONLY scoped to the based game i.e. Willow Creek and Oasis Springs.
