The Measure of a Sim

What a cool idea for an overlay!

Literally every default face template set on earth that I've ever seen be like: what if every single sim looked the exact same as each other. and also they're all white

Can't have Asian features or Black features or Indigenous features because they're too #ugly and the Sims 2 community memes on it constantly about how #gross and #ugly they are and how that's why we need defaults that are just 25 clones of the same white guy with a button nose and round eyes. Oh and elf and alien I guess. I GUESS.

I agree with @creesims recs! I also think these by Pooklet are quite unique. Deedee has made them non default so you can have them together with Maxis' if you like, it adds variety if you let your game spawn townies, NPCs, etc. I agree that some sets out there are a bit same face-y, but no one's forcing you to download them 🤷🏾‍♀️

CC creators may not work for us, however they are creating for a diverse community. That should be reflected in the face templates.

Actually my point exactly was that many CC creators (including my(retired)self) are not creating for the community at all but for themselves. They are generously sharing a set of face templates they've probably made for their own game. You can of course dislike their CC, but you can't tell them what kind of CC they should be making instead.

Exactly! You can also combine different sets, because many have been made non default. Getting different templates (or sets of templates) from different creators is a great way to get a diversity of faces, representative of our diverse community.
