None of these are done insensitively or as a joke. Moreover, looking at the gallery for disabled Sims at the moment, you can already find some creations people have made out of the available options, including blind Sims and service dogs for them, stationary wheelchairs and disabled friendly homes (with ramps and bars on the walls). That’s a problem for that individual to square with themselves, not an excuse to deny representation to the disabled community. Anyone who is going to make a joke at the expense of disability will do it using their own mods with or without “Sims 4” designers including it in their game. However, I feel the benefits of disability options would far outweigh these possible drawbacks. Browse through the “Sims 4” gallery and you can find silly uploads from many creators, many just fun and games, but some could be deemed offensive and perhaps disability would merely add fuel to the fire there. Some people also worry that regardless of how much thought is put into it, people would still see disabilities in the game as a joke.

I can certainly respect that point of view, but here’s the thing, you can still do that with disabilities included.
Some Sims players aren’t too keen on the idea of disabled Sims being added, saying that they are more into the fantasy side of the game and use it as an escape from their real lives, including their disabilities.
