Sims 4 made for kids?

Why is it that the sims 4 looks and feels more dulled down from the COS and even the sims you make?

-Things i see wrong with this game so far-
1. No sliders
2. No custom colors/ create a style
3. No open world=loading screens
4. No animated hair/looks like a block of hair
5. No customization of hair color
6. No eyelash length/ looks like a strip of hair
7. No favorites
8. No full face make-up
9. No animated eyeballs/ eye and skin looks all as one
10. No good graphics/ sims look very cartoonish

If anyone can tell me why the graphics look so bad in this sims please do tell me because going from sims 3 to this looks like a big drop, taking that u have not even half the COS did in sims 3 with out addons. If it's just because it's a demo then fair play on the clothing and other things wrong with it, i just think when u make a game maybe you should build the game on top of the old bones of the last one taking most of the good things u had in it to the new game.

    Looking back to S1/S2/S3 EA has ALWAYS put out bad hair, bad clothes, bad makeup....
    Modders CC is, and has been, the way to get decent looking stuff.
    Sad but true.

    I'm guessing the OP means 'CAS'.

    lol Sims 4 looks like a rush job made from plastic or Pixar studio trying to go serious! The guy in the yellow top in the sire logo looks like he glued a leaf his head and painted it brown! Textures? Detail? Nah, only adults want attention to detail :D

    What's wrong with plastic or Pixar? Those happen to be two of my favorite things; having them both in Sims 4 is just pure win.

    The art style is one of a rapidly evaporating few things in TS4 I see nothing wrong with. TS3's hair didn't look realistic either, but it was trying too so it looked wirey and blech. And were sliders really all that different or better than the click and pull system? Also, the eyes are animated. Blatantly so.

    The other stuff I either can't refute or agree with.

    The eyes not so much as Sims 3 and maybe they should try hard to make nice looking hair not go and glue some play doh on a sim and go done!, lacking in Detaila lot - just my suggestion no hate from me :D

    It is a big drop, a step backwards if you ask me. I think their goal is to tartget on the young, and the lower end computers. I don't have a great computer, but it does the job :p

    TS4 took 2 steps forward but 8 steps backwards.

    I am getting the game. But this is the first time I am not excited. It really does seem like a step back. It looks like stepping into a Disney cartoon.

    The arguments about the visual style and textures are pretty funny coming from someone with a Team Fortress 2 avatar.

    As others have stated here on the forum, it's not that the game has bad graphics it's just a different art style. Some like it, some not.

    I disagree. Not concerning Sims 2 (those original sims are hideous imo), but I never came across Sims 3 cc for CAS that I liked.
    As far as I'm concerned it always spoils the sims.
    The hair in Sims 3 is fine (although I don't get certain hairstyles...) and in Sims 4 I actually really like it.
    It suits the style.

    I agree CC hairs that looked good on creator sites were absolutly awful in the game. I have come to the conclusion that a lot of simmers just play with dollies in cas and never play the game. At least in sims 4 the sims still look like their cas versions they never looked the same in sims 3.

    What do these things have to do with the game being for kids? No animated hair is something kids like? This is called streamlining, and they've been doing it since Sims 3.
    What'd you just say??
