Who doesn’t love the Sims? Whether you’ve only played it a handful of times or are slightly worried about your investment in the game, its safe to say that most people have had a fun time engaging in all sorts of wacky antics in The Sims Universe. One of the best things about the game is the house building tools on display, especially in The Sims 4.

Most of us have all created our dream designs for our slightly erratic sims to live in. From fancy apartments, suburban paradises, mysterious castles or grand mansions, there’s a bit of something for everyone to delve into. Whilst its certainly entertaining to build the craziest houses you can imagine, sometimes you got to take a step back and appreciate the work certain Sims fans put into their architecture. That’s exactly what we intend to do now.

Posting to the /r/Sims4 community on Reddit, Heatherdukefanboy shared a screenshot of their Sims cottage.This beautifully constructed cottage caught the attention of many of the game’s fans, including myself. Praise has been heaped for its intricate details which help create a simple and cute environment. Check it out for yourselves down below:

What do you all think then? It’s pretty neat, right? The house itself is built near a river too, adding to the calm aesthetic its striving for. Rustic is also certainly the theme here, with a mixture of woods and stones helping to enable that look. The stony wall guarding the cottage manages to protect it from the otherwise busy Sim World which may surround it. A masterpiece, to say the least.

Unfortunately, those of you who are looking to have a sneak peak to see what’s inside will be left disappointed. Heatherdukefanboy is yet to take on the interior design, but don’t worry, that just means you’ll have to come back here to see it when they do! If you want to get your hands on the house for yourself, the house can be found on The Sims 4 gallery, credited to Bostob. Get on it right away!

EA is going to be giving some of its most iconic NPCs huge overhauls with new looks, personalities, and lore.

EA has given Sims fans their first look at overhauls to significant characters in The Sims 4.

The studio first announced back in August that it would be giving several “flagship characters” a visual update, along with changes to lore and their personalities. In a Livestream this week that showcased the new Kit and Neighborhood Stories feature, the team gave a glimpse into how progress on some of the NPCs is going.

SimGuruRusskii showed comparison shots for Bella Goth, Mortimer Goth, Dina Caliente and Nina Caliente – all iconic characters that you will no doubt have seen if you watch any Sims 4 streamers. Both Bella and Mortimer have had features changed to make them look older, which is a welcome change considering they currently don’t seem much older than their teenage daughter. Mortimer may also get a new moustache, which SimGuruRusskii said should look “a little bit more refined, a little bit more elegant.” The team is possibly contemplating adjusting Mortimer’s skin tone.

Bella Goth’s new concept also shows her with an adjusted skin tone. Her new complexion more closely reflects her appearance in past Sims games after years of whitewashing accusations. She might be getting a new hairstyle too. This supposedly will look “a little bit more modern, a little bit more refined as well.”

The Caliente sisters are also getting adjusted skin tones to match their ethnicity more accurately. The new design brings both closer to their older game appearances, finally ridding Dina of her banana-yellow hair in favour of something more natural. Nina may also be getting a slightly altered hair colour to a more auburn-toned look. Both sisters are probably receiving new outfits, making them look more “glam” compared to their current… unique… fashion choices.

SimGuruRusskii says there’s no planned release date for these changes yet, and that it’s all still very much a work-in-progress with the potential to change.
