Maxis Made 'Conscious Decision' To Not Include Face Masks In The Sims 4

As much as The Sims 4 likes to simulate a lived experience, we won't be getting face masks and PPE in the game anytime soon.

Who the hell wants to be reminded of this covid crap when they're simply playing a game?

Haha exactly, all the fall/winter shows are putting covid into the story lines and I'm like I watch TV to escape reality. I'm glad Sims 4 won't do it

[Z501]

Wait. People play Sim games to escape reality?

Who wants to be reminded that they have to go to work when they're simply playing a game?

Some people like the idea of being proactive and the benefits that brings you.
There's a big difference between knowing you have work the next day vs the world went to s**t, and now you have to live in a mask, multiple businesses are closing, and you're going to be told 24/7 that loved ones are at risk.

Nice try at a point. I'm sure you'll do better next time. Also try being less lazy, if the simple idea of a work day affects you that much.

Good thing The Sims doesn't have doctor or firefighter as occupations to remind them of what you wrote. Only a "mask" could do that/

You're trying too hard

They also made a conscious decision to suck the fun and sharm of this series and fill Sims 4 with a whole lotta panderin shite

Don’t play it

[Inverno]

I don't, but that won't fix anything now now will it?

Thank God.
