Got ITF today and the insert for TS4 says RATING PENDING!!!!! Maybe they are thinking about losing the T rating! Oh man, imagine having vampires and werewolves who can kill!
I'll be the first in line to snatch it up! If they do choose a T rating again, I'm out. I'm not going down that road again. I want a Lestat, not an Edward.
If they do change the rating, the teens who want it will get it. One way or the other, just like GTA5.

However, I'm sure they have to submit every new game to be rated independently, regardless of whether the previous Sims games had a "Teen" rating or not. They've submitted the game to receive a rating, but it doesn't mean the rating is going to change. I'd be very surprised if the rating changed to anything but "Teen".
I hope this made sense. I'm tired and I hope I haven't reached that point of exhaustion where my sentences stop being coherent. LOL.
The rating pending is only placed there because the game is not final yet. If its not finished than they cant determine a rating yet as they are still adding content.
*And yes. Let's model Lestat. Not Edward. Those vampires couldn't even admire their own power...
However, expect it to be rated T yet again. The graphics style is in line with certain other T-rated games and the images so far suggest activities of about the same level.
We can hope though right?
I definitely wouldn't like sims 4 if they made it for children (no woo hoo and such) but I am content if they stay at the same rating now because I know I enjoyed the game even with dumb vampires. I would like it if it was a bit more mature though
+ If they got for an M rating, they'll lose both the T and the e10+ crowd.
So I think they'll stick to Teen rating for now.
And hopefully they read the forums and will make another simulation game, more adult oriented, in a not too far future.

I want drunk gnomes back and cakes with dancers that pop out and strip for the crowd. Like it was in TS1. TS1 wasn't so childish & that's why I fell in love with this game.
This.
Also - a side note, when a rating is given, it means the game's content is all locked in and development has finished, ready for release.
