    I can't believe I didn't notice that earlier. It's going to look really weird when they age from child to teen when the teens are so big, I mean I really love The sims but I must say I'm a little disappointed at The sims 4. I totally expected more. :(

    I can't say it bothers me all that much, I hate how teens look in TS3.

    What I'd love to see back would be different voice per age. I loved having elders with crotchety old voices and teens would break and get pitchy.

    I wouldn't mind if there was a stage between child and teen, because people start growing and maturing to look more like adults as they get later into their teens, so it's not unrealistic. It just makes the age jump between child and teen too drastic, and as a story teller it makes it a lot harder to cover up the sudden jump. In playing just for fun it wouldn't be a super huge issue to me, but in story telling it's pretty major. And it would be kind of weird to be trying to hook my sim up with someone only to realize the other sim is a YA and mines only a teen or vice versa.

    It's the one with the grey hair and pink jacket...

    Hey, I could see it happening...

    Okay seriously, the blonde girl with the short shorts, and the way she's hanging on to the guy I guess him too. Maybe that red head girl 2 sims over. I don't know! This is a mean game. :x

    Maybe they'll just make Sims grow from babies into adults.

    Eh doesn't bother me. Teens were too short IMO in TS3 and teens usually are the same height as adults now a days.

    When I was a teen I was way shorter than both of my parents :?

    LMAO :lol:
    I was just thinking about that right now. About how we may have already seen many Teenagers seeing as they have the same size as YA/Adults. EEk...
    I guess Chuck and the blonde girl with him, the girl with black/purple hair in green.

    I'm not saying they are/aren't the same height, but we haven't seen them outside of CAS. Well, according to some people, maybe we have, but we wouldn't know because they're all the same height...

    I think the girl in the green shirt and the guy in the purple pants are teens... Chuck has a tattoo so I think him and his lady friend are YA.

    But seriously who knows, there is no distinguishing differences between teen, YA, and adult. They probably cut out the ability for teens to woohoo and called it a day.

    I remember Grant said: the teens are 13-16 years old... and I was not as high as my parents when I was 13-16 years, and none of my friends either.

    Maybe they are going for CW teens... You know, 30 year-olds cast as 16 year-olds? :lol:

    Joking aside, this is awful news if accurate. Worse than no toddlers for me, because I actually like playing as a teen in the Sims. If they are just adults who goto school, I'll be super disappointed. I've asked Graham twice, but he never replied back.

    I actually made it myself in Photoshop. Some credit goes to The 🐸🐸🐸🐸, however, they were first to use the phrase, "Buy it suckers!"

    The more I hear, the worse it gets. Add one more thing to the pile. If they are going to wow us, they better hurry up. This has turned into a better Sims Social, and I am having serious doubts that this won't crash and burn.

    I totally agree, I mean the sims even look like the ones in the sims social. In The sims 3 they made them more real looking but now they look more cartoonish, it just feels like a step back to me.
