The Sims 4 Graphics R Ugly!

I do not have TS4, but I see the picture above for The Sims.com and sims in the Sims 4 look like characters from Star Wars Rebels, and not in a good way.
Sims 1: Horrible Graphics
Sims 2: Anime- Like Graphics
Sims 3: Realistic Graphics
Sims 4: Cartoony, Star Wars Rebels Graphics.
And did I mention that the Sims 2 had hair animation? I know, I wish I had the Sims 2 :'(
Tell me what you think of the Sims 4 graphics! In my opinion, they're ugly!

    I think they're too cartoony for my taste. They all look like barbie dolls with leaves as hair. Just my opinion.

    Cartoony. Waxy. Cheap. Distinct Nintendo 64 vibe. A step down.

    I like them. They're different sure, but I like them. All I can say about that.

    I think the graphics looks really nice, but your opinion is your opinion sooo.. What do you want me to do 'bout it, I can't really change it. :)

    I find the Sims themselves look infinitely better than the creepy I had too much botox pillow faces of TS3. Believe it or not, the worlds of TS4 are actually gorgeous, but that distance blur disguises it. I won't even go into the green slime terrain. Both the distance blur and the green slime terrain were fixed for me via mods, and...it's worth it. IDK what the Devs were thinking on that one. Oasis Springs makes me want to pull out Fallout New Vegas every time I play there.

    They weren't what I wanted but I wouldn't say they were ugly. Sometimes they're even quite pretty.

    Are we ignoring TS3 vanilla base graphics.... those seemed pretty dull to me.

    Not disagreeing with what you say against TS4 because I believe cartoony/waxy was the look they were going for.

    I disagree with you saying TS3 graphics were realistic. TS3 worlds/environments had the potential to look awesome but for me that doesn't necessarily mean "realistic". I only consider something realistic looking if its like next gen graphics that actually make me think 🐸🐸🐸🐸 that looks so real I can barely tell the difference between that and the real version of whatever "that" is. TS3 never did that for me.

    The sims themselves looked pretty garbage except when you threw a ton of CC on them and then they just looked like pretty expressionless dolls that didn't make me think "🐸🐸🐸🐸 that looks like a real person". Don't get me wrong though the pretty expressionless doll look was great. It's a look that I feel is hard to recreate as well in TS4 just because the sims don't look sweet or soft enough to pull off the Korean doll look with the CC that is currently available.

    TL;DR
    TS3 was very pretty but not entirely realistic -- not to say that TS4 is any closer to being "realistic" because it certainly is not.

    To me the graphics aren't as good as Sims 3 but they're not bad either, I don't have any kind of problem with them. Except the hair. But it's not like Sims 3 Sims didn't have hair issues either.
    It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.

    I think the game is stunning, there where things about the sims 3 i liked more like the map view for example. I never noticed how pretty the map view in the sims 3 was until recently as im so used to 4's now which is so white.

    Sims 3: Realistic Graphics

    Realistic you say...

    Okay. If I took this:
    Screenshot-6.jpg

    And then threw in this:
    Screenshot-7.jpg

    Sure it's a way more realistic game.

    If you think plastic dolls with bad hair running around a realistic looking world looks realistic, that is. Do I dare point out how realistic that blocky bush beside the sims in the second pic is? Especially when compared with the first picture? Oh, and the grass...

    *sighs*

    It's all subject to opinion, I guess.

    I really like the visuals of the game and find it is a step forward from where TS3 was at. I really happen to like the visuals of this game a whole lot more than in the previous game.

    Well granted Sims 1 and 2 were in different times, like what early 2000? and they didn't have the animation software they now have for sims 3.
    Honestly the sims have never looked so good till now. the Sims 3 honestly hurts my eyes now, Sims 4 for the win.

    I'm sure you know why. You have the game too and have similar reasons... Odd question coming from you.

    Are you really talking about a plastic look? Sims 4 looks much more plastic than Sims 3.

    The OP also looks like a trolls just trying to start a fight :/

    But... but... but, EA's ultimate goal is to let you play the sims on your iphone with microtransactions. It has to look that way. $1.99 freemium surcharge for improved graphics.

    In comparison to the first pic, as stated? Yes.

    In S4, the entire game looks like it all belongs together. Whether one actually likes the style or not, it flows.

    Those sims look awful and dead.

    I was just curious. I use a lot of CC on my sims so something as trivial as looks doesn't effect me much. Since I change their entire cartoon look to something realistic anway.

    I was just wondering because you don't seem to like the graphics and you don't seem like a CC type of person.
