They’d be one in the same in every lexicon on the planet if it were humanly possible. In the meantime, the company suggests players stick to the “Normal” lifespan option to avoid this ageing bug. As with the “family members wanting to date each other” situation, EA is also aware of the issue and working on a fix. Some folks have experienced Sims ageing from young babies to elderly adults in a matter of minutes. Players are reporting that characters are rapidly ageing. On top of this less-than-ideal bug, another problem some players are encountering in the Sims 4 after the last update is less gross and more existentially devastating. Yesterday, a dev on Twitter confirmed that the team knows about the incest issue and is “looking to get it fixed ASAP.” EA also re-confirmed that it’s working on a fix in a support thread about the bug on the publisher’s official site. We’re of course working on the aging bug too.

We’re looking to get it fixed ASAP, thanks for all the bug reports, we appreciate it. I just wanted to acknowledge that the Want to date a family member is something we know about, we’ve reproduced ourselves, we’re working on it. However, it seems that a bug with the system is creating “Wants” that involve romantic relationships with anybody, including other family members. The system gives Sims things they want to do and accomplish, giving players more goals to chase. What’s going on here? Well, according to some Sims 4 players and modders, the likely issue is the newly added “Wants” system, which was seen in older Sims games. In that same support thread, a player on Xbox shared an offputting example of a daughter wanting to date her father. Another player shared a bug report with EA stating that one of their male sims wanted to ask his twin sister to be his girlfriend. One player shared a screenshot of an older woman who suddenly wanted to start a romantic relationship with her own son. As spotted by PC Gamer, Reddit, and elsewhere, Sims 4 players are reporting that after the game’s July 26 update, some in-game characters are looking to date family members.
