    It's not like the previous games had tongues that were overly visible either.

    They only appear when the Sim does a specific action, just like Sims 4.

    They aren't always there.

    They were definitely visible, though, and pretty noticeable at times. As far as I can tell they're always there. Do sims ever stick their tongues out in TS4? I hadn't noticed. It's been a while since I've played, though, but I never actually saw them make any expression similar to the one in my pic.

    Maybe the tongue is something even more amazing and magical.

    It seems I can't pull up the initial thread for what ever reason. She too was having issues getting the tongue to show up in the actual game. I remember her getting a reply (I think) but I can't remember what it was about.

    If you need help I suggest going here to post: http://www.sims4studio.com/board/8/creator-help

    OrangeMittens is very friendly/helpful and I find quick to reply.

    Doesn't this prove sims do have tongues?

    Sims 4 don't have tongue. It's not a tongue here, is just a fake tongue with full pink color in it. Nothing else.

    I've already say that in the Simguru chat, the fact that in Sims 4 : no animated tongues. Contrary to Sims 3.

    Now in the game, we can see this fake tongue, but the tongue isn't animated at all. We can't use them for pose or whatever yet. (no bones)

    :p Yes, I noticed this back near the beginning of the franchise. I thought that was the reason they spoke Simlish and you couldn't understand what the heck they were saying! :p:p:p:p:p:p

    I agree with others that is not necessarily a tongue. Ceci n'est pas un tongue.
    What Jessa shows is a tongue, you can stick a piercing through it.

    That explains the marionette manner of talking. The mouth moves up and down like choppers.

    I have no words to describe how I feel about you pointing this out. I just popped in the game real quick to do a tongue check and now that is all I can notice, lol. It looks ridiculous, I guess I never really watched them talk before? They do look like puppets. :(

    That's what I'm seeing too. It's basically the way the inside of the mouth is "painted." An illusion, but not an actual tongue. Nothing that's animated, nothing that they can stick out during expressions or poses.

    In ts3 it sometimes bothered me that vampire tongues always looked so long when they licked their lips.
    Now in ts4 I find myself constantly looking for tongues on my sims lol.

    That's why they speak Simlish ... because they don't have tongues.

    And to the people saying that they don't have tongues to keep EA's secrets; I believe the correct term is 'Avox'.

    I'm going to pop in the game myself this time to do a ventriloquist's dummy check, I have to see this lol
    (I must admit I'm not a huge fan of some Sims 3 mouth movements as well I must confess btw ;))

    I noticed it when EA was promoting the game and hoped that would change but seem to stay in the game. I got so many disagrees when I pointed it out on MTS. Oh well, it may not bother others but I don't want to see them talk, it looks like someone had a spasm while controlling the mouth of the ventriloquist's dummy. Annoying!

    Sim 3 had the interactions to poke out the tongue while snowing, also there were lots of different other tongue actions in the game. Since I don't like looking while the Sims 4 sims are talking, I might be missing tongue actions there.
    Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

    sadly, i'm beginning to suspect that they're not anatomically correct in other places, too.

    And you just won the internet.
    This should settle the issue and put things in perspective... but it won't, of course.

    And they are visible like that when a Sim is doing normal things in 4 as well, as we've seen:

    It's just the sims then have a full scale tongue when they poke it out etc in 3, but they aren't always clearly obvious (like 4).
    When they add more piercing to 4, they will probably make them more noticeable.

    In 3, they weren't very prominent in the earlier packs :p
    It's weird talking about Tongues though. Like not gross, but just, strange.

    Well, hasn't the "make silly face" interaction been around since TS3's base game? It's pretty prominent during that interaction.

    You can see them often in TS3. You see them when they make certain faces, you see them when they talk. That's what I mean. It seems that TS4's sims don't have tongues like TS3's did. As has been mentioned the "tongue" in the TS4 pic is likely just drawn on, but not an actual tongue that can move and animate. (Unless someone has figured out otherwise.)
