I really am genuinely happy for new skin tones and improved skintones. I am excited about the new hairstyles and hair colours.
However, the need for missing races and ethnic groups still exists in the game. She did not address that at all.
She failed to mention adding in missing races and ethnic groups to the games through improved sliders and added presets.
I cannot create a Native American sim without using custom presets and custom sliders because it doesn't exist in the sims at all.
I wish it was as simple as skintones hairstyles and hair colour. Sadly its not.
6 years and 2 white Game Changers still haven't acknowledged that non-existance of some races completely omitted from the sims but decided to crusade on skin tones hairstyles and hair colours instead. Though I am grateful that they crusaded against what appears as covert racism they did nothing to address what appears as blatant racism to fail to acknowledge that it even exists in the game and how that any form of racism is never acceptable. They need to prove me wrong and call out the seemingly blatant racism in the form of missing racism in the game. I'm just saying it would be nice for my race to exist without custom sliders and custom presets to create a Native American sim in the game. I would like to believe that they simply were unaware of this and that they don't support any kind of discrimination of any kind.
As grateful as I truly am to more skin tones and race and ethnic hairstyles hopefully done right for a change. It's a victory but just a small one until every race and ethnic group is included and exists in the sims. More still needs to be done.
