SimGuryLyndsey Addresses Skintones

I'm not sure it was the game changers that did anything, except get the public riled up. I think the reason they announced this now is: they have been working on it. They have a game pack around the corner. They couldn't tweet anything anymore without thousands of replies "fix the skin tones". Pretty hard to hype up your next pack with everyone's response "fix the skin tones". ;) No one was listening to them and rightly so, 6 years is a long time to wait for something so basic. It probably should have been fixed properly in the first patch to address this.

I also think if they just started working on it because of the backlash now, it would be a lot further out than a "fall" update. That kinda tells me they have been listening, they just haven't been communicating. They probably could avoid a lot of drama if they were just a little more transparent about things like this. There are so many other things they could surprise us with.

My point being, they didn't just listen to two game changers. This one time they had to be transparent with what they're working on so that they can get onto pumping the next pack.

I'm hoping they will add a lot more options now. Might as well get it all done at once so we can avoid a third update on this matter.
