An Interesting Glitch

First born syndrome does not affect looks - that's just the simple Mendellian genetics system in the game not giving much variety.

That's what I thought, too- however exhaustive testing has shown that it does affect the features.

Yeah, I keep hearing this claim, but I had two very different looking sims produce a son and a daughter in one play session, then twin boy and girl in another. The twins were complete exact clones of their older brother and sister, only with the sexes switched around. Everything was the same, personality, every single facial feature, skin, hair and eyecolour. Completely identical.
The other instances of "first-born syndrome" I've had were also the same, personality as well as looks were identical. The only thing it doesn't seem to affect is the sex.
For the record, after I always started rolling the CAS dice before a birth, I still get quite similar looking siblings from time to time, but I've never had any exact clones like that again.

Going completely off topic here; why do you hate Maxis hairstyles? Sure, there may be a few that aren't the best or not a lot of variety, but I never thought they were terrible.

Starpoo, I honestly end up going back to mainly Maxis hairstyles after I try out the custom ones, which often but not always have features that look bad in game play no matter how lovely they look in photos, while the stodgier Maxis ones tend to stay kind of cute and unfunky in the game.
