Actually I disagree with this I see a lot of strong genetics in sims 4 and not much difference to sims 3. Certainly my goth household legacies I can see a lot of Cassandra and Alexander in their respective offspring families both grandchildren and yet to fully see great grandchildren. Sims 4 has its faults but genetics isn’t one of them. Now family links on family trees and in cas yes but not genetics. However I will admit pretty much all of pleasantsims opinions I disagree with so I don’t watch her videos anymore. I don’t hate her or anything my opinion of the game is just very different from hers and I get very little from watching her videos so I rarely watch them.
While I loved the dominant/recessive aspects of the Sims 2, I don't think the genetics in Sims 4 have gotten overall worse. True, it would be great if there were dominant/recessive hair colors and eye colors in Sims 4. The Sims 2 "surprise" of recessive genes from grandparents were neat.
But in other ways, the Sims 4 genetics work really well. Most of the children in my game -- facial-structure and body type-wise, do legitimately match the parents. Including body shape and the propensity toward weight gain. This was not present at all in Sims 2. I have been playing a legacy that is now in the 7th generation, and I use MCCC to have the NPC population continue to reproduce. I can always tell the Straud family descendents even after all these generations :wink:
