Sims 4 NPCs are finally being reworked without mods and looking really good
May 27 update: EA and Maxis finally released the update and you can now find the new Sims NPCs in the game. First of all, only the entire horror family has been revised and given a new background story.
Those are the horrors: The family has been at odds with the Landgrab family for centuries. The creeps may have founded parts of the city, but the Landgraves built there, causing a dispute over rights. Also, the creeps have a curse. Many of the family have died under mysterious and tragic circumstances. For example, Samuel Goth died from a poisoned bean.

Everything about expansion packs, sets and content updates
Original message: Would you like a little before and after show? The Sims development team is currently working on updates for NPCs, which should be in the interest of the community. Many are not happy with the standard characters so far and help themselves with revised models. In the Maxis live stream, the development team talked about the innovations and showed pictures of the current status. We’ll tell you more about it.
visual updates
It’s all about this: Many fans are not exactly happy with the default faces of the pre-made NPCs. So it’s good that the development team is now working on changes that should also take community feedback into account.
Maxis Livestream shows first results: in the Maxi’s live stream fans have now received an update on the current state of affairs and also a bit of illustrative material on the visual changes. Before and after versions of Bella and Mortimer Grusel as well as Nina and Dina Caliente were shown.
This changes: The faces will not be completely redone, but some details will receive visible changes. This can be seen, for example, in Mortimer’s eye area or Bella’s skin tone and birthmark.

Changes are work in progress
However, it is clearly an interim result that does not represent the final result. For example, the team is considering a new mustache for Mortimer and, based on feedback, a different hairstyle for Bella. In addition, Nadina from the Sims team clarified afterwards on Twitter:
Heya, I would like to add something about the NPC concepts. These are basic concepts. That’s why we intentionally showed her without makeup and with a standard facial expression… Well, like I said in the live stream, everything is subject to change and I’m looking forward to showing you that little by little =).

By the way, the updates are not purely cosmetic. The personalities and backstories of the NPCs are also getting an overhaul. A date for the innovations has not yet been given in the live stream.
How do you like the currently shown concepts? Do you think something should change or are you already satisfied?
