[OPINION] EA Killed The Sims 4 Gallery

The Gallery used to feel like a real social network - somewhere you could share your creations, discover others, and actually connect with the community.

But EA managed to undermine it in two simple steps:

1. Removing the "News" tab (2 years ago) This feature kept the community alive. It notified you when someone downloaded, liked, or commented on your uploads, and it let you see new creations from people you follow. Without it, that sense of interaction and feedback is basically gone.

2. Changing the default sort to "Most Popular" (recently) The Gallery used to default to "Newest", which gave fresh creations a fair shot at visibility. Every time you opened it, you’d see new content - even from smaller creators. Now, with "Most Popular" as the default, older, already-successful uploads dominate. Sure, you can switch it back manually - but most users won't. And that means new creations get far less exposure.

EA, if you ever see this - please consider reverting these changes. The community deserves better.

Justin Bieber?

Okay, my favorite person is performing at Coachella, and I'm not going to be there to watch, so I just made Drave's face look more like him in his prime lol

I removed his lip piercing because it clipped with his new lower lip shape. I still think he looks cute though, just a little less tough.

I'm such a terrible CAS girlie.

Maybe this era should end haha

btw - this gray background is totally giving rhode. For my defence I had been using it before Hailey launched it :)

I am cooking a new ranch ;)

I'm in my CAS girlie era lol

Updated my baby Dravian after a long time I haven't (tattoos and piercings don't count)

He looks a bit surprised. Or inspired. I don't know.

But I like him anyway.

Hairstyle is by @johnnysimmer

Vicolo della Serenata

I built a little passage in Tartosa, and honestly… I didn’t expect to love it this much.

It’s my first time trying something like this, but I’m really happy with how it turned out. The cozy corners, the layered paths, the tiny café vibes… it all came together in a way that feels warm and a little bit magical.

Hogwarts-Like Family Home

So I basically tried to build a family home for the spellcasters in Glimmerbrook, inspired by Hogwarts.

I also tried not to use too many packs.
