I don't "play as" any Sim. I like making a Sim and playing the game with it. I think of them as Sims and not a human race.
I make either gender and pick a color, usually what the game starts with or which goes with the face I create. Most of the the Sims I make are not what some would call "normal."
I have never seen Sims as the human race, either. It's why it's not hard for me to make some of them suffer. I have always held them out at arm's length. They aren't real to me and never will be. I don't play as a Sim, either and never have and never will. It's healthy not to see me and or my friends and or people I know in the game, it's all abstract to me and actually much more fun to me in The Sims original and all others if someone doesn't play as themself and or seeing them as humans...that will certanly hinder a lot of unexplored gameplay in my opinion. And frankly I think it's very mentally unhealthy to think that is ourselves in the game. It's one reason I don't need representation in a game..it's a game, and they aren't real, it seems only TS4 is the representation game.
