*Some* of my biggest issues are the look of the sims themselves (doughy is the only way I can describe it) and the fact that all sims will age regardless of the fact that you are not playing them
My sentiments exactly. Something about their faces, especially their chins is really annoying. Doughy is a great analogy because their faces look a little fat and unrealistic. Everything else in the Sims 3 has made great strides to be realistic, but the sims themselves look cartoonish compared to sims 1 and 2. They all look like they are related too.
The Securom and DRM along with EA spying on the things we do isn't kosher either. I want the game to build houses and see the new world graphics, but I don't want people spying on me. I don't know if I'll get the game now.
