I’m not the type of player who likes to make her sims suffer or do challenges. I just like making sims and creating my own stories with the gameplay, honestly. What are your favorite things to do in the game? I’m scared to look at the numbers for The Sims 2 and 3. According to Origin, I’ve clocked 857 hours on The Sims 4 alone. Sometimes it takes up my whole afternoon or evening.

If I’m actually playing the game instead of making my own cosmetic mods or taking pictures for my blog, I lose track of time really easily. Given how huge of an undertaking it would take, I wouldn’t be surprised if it would only be possible from Maxis’ end or with a really dedicated team of modders.

I think I only found a couple of working links to prosthetics and hearing aids, and one wheelchair.

Unfortunately, nothing to mod the gameplay itself to include disabilities.The cosmetic mods are pretty scarce. I’ve used them to create sims for a photo series I did and will continue at some point. There are cosmetic mods to alter your sims’ appearances.

People do all sorts of mods for this game, are there any private mods you can install to add what you’re looking for? There’s a long way to go, but it shows that Maxis might be considering more steps in the right direction.

However, there was a recent patch for November that included a new Accessibility tab including a feature to resize the UI, for those with visual impairments. The only time I heard of an attempt to implement representation within gameplay was in September 2018, after reading Grant Rodiek’s tweets which can be found on SimsVip. Have they made any attempts to include people with disabilities? That in itself creates representation and shows that people from all walks of life play games like The Sims. What would you like to see them doing differently?Įven if they don’t implement disabilities as features for gameplay, I’d really like to see Maxis reach out to disabled gamers who run their own gaming channels or blogs to talk to them if they play The Sims. I think that shows how important is for people in the audience and gaming industry to step up and show the way.

It wasn’t until I reached my teenage years and adulthood that I saw the power of representation and how we need to rectify the lack of disability representation across the board… But I didn’t dare to dream that it’s something that could happen with one of my favorite game series until Grant Rodiek released his tweets saying that it could be possible. Honestly, I don’t think it’s something you notice so much as subconsciously resign yourself to in your life? Growing up consuming media and having Spinal Muscular Atrophy, in everything from books to movies to video games, I’ve always known and accepted that people like me don’t necessarily get to have our stories told unless we fit into the “Inspiration” box. Wh en did you first notice the lack of disability representation? I now currently own and play The Sims 2 and 4 as well, with the main game I play now being The Sims 4. My mum bought The Sims 3 for me when it first released, and I’ve been invested in this series ever since. It’s been a decade and I didn’t even know. I am 20 years old at the time of this interview, going on 21 in December. My name is Sherry, but people also know me as Elisa online.

I immediately wanted to reach out to her, and upon doing so she accepted the request for an interview! Please read her original article here! This article talked about the possibility of disability representation in The Sims, one of my favorite games. I was just browsing on twitter, and ran across an interesting title of an article.
