Kjun’s Response to Feedback from\u00a0“10.16.26 Your Feedback and What We’re Working On”<\/p>\n
Hello, everyone. This is Kjun.<\/p>\n
You left so many comments on last Friday\u2019s post. I read through every single one. Thank you for all of it: the kind words, the frustrations, and the long, detailed suggestions. I\u2019d like to respond to the topics that came up most this week.<\/p>\n
What we were happy to hear
I\u2019m glad you liked the new hairstyles, especially the curly hair and the long layered straight hair. It also made me really proud to hear from those of you who tried script mods and said you can now make simple tweaks even without knowing how to code. We\u2019re also seeing your reactions to custom music, family saving, free placement, and the premade families that now come with memories and relationships.<\/p>\n
Issues since the October update
First, let me talk about the issues that came up after this update.<\/p>\n
Face spotlight and lighting: Many of you told us that Zoi faces look too shiny and glow brightly even in dark rooms. The screenshots comparing the spotlight turned off with the September version were also very helpful. There were lighting-related changes in the October update, and I\u2019ve passed this on to the team member in charge for review.
Skill icons: We\u2019ve seen your feedback that the previous design was better because the new one doesn\u2019t show progress. I\u2019ve passed this on to the team member in charge, and we\u2019ll review it quickly.
Multitasking and the action queue: We\u2019ve seen your reports that Zoi move to a different seat when chatting during meals, and that other Zoi cutting into or canceling the action queue has gotten worse.
Business: We\u2019ve seen your reports that customers and sales dropped after the update, and that customers buy all the bread on display at once. The team member in charge is focusing on fixing bugs and making improvements for businesses. Customers buying bread all at once is actually an intended bulk-purchase feature, but it doesn\u2019t seem to come across clearly, so we\u2019ll look into making it more visible.
Urges and SmartZoi: We\u2019re also looking at the issues where urges appear too rarely, and where Zoi repeat the same thoughts or head off at strange times to strange places looking for a date. We plan to keep improving SmartZoi based on your feedback.<\/p>\n
Animations
This was the most talked-about topic this week. You clearly laid out the problems: animations are so short that actions end quickly and jump straight to the next one, objects teleport into Zoi\u2019s hands, and transitions between movements feel robotic. The records some of you made by timing actions with the in-game clock were also very striking. I also strongly agree that animations and walk styles should differ based on personality.<\/p>\n
Some of you also said that even if animations get longer, you should be able to stop them whenever you want. We\u2019ve built a feature that lets you stop an action whenever you want, and it\u2019s currently being reviewed internally. We\u2019re also planning to increase the play time of animations that can loop.<\/p>\n
Family gameplay
A lot of you said it doesn\u2019t feel like the family is really together. That includes the loading screen when switching family members on the same lot, family members traveling separately to the same destination, everyone doing their own thing on outings, and family members just walking past each other. I know that right now, inZOI is better suited to playing one Zoi than playing a family. I see this as one of the most important challenges for the game\u2019s core features.<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve also kept asking to save all situational outfits with family presets. I know we\u2019ve kept you waiting a long time. We plan to make it possible to save situational outfits together with Zoi presets.<\/p>\n
For life stages, you also gave us many specific suggestions, including height sliders for all ages, adolescence and preschool stages, smaller newborns, and bigger pregnancy bellies.<\/p>\n
Vehicles and travel
We\u2019ve seen your requests for cars to stay where you park them, a working garage, and families riding together in the same car. Opinions were split on letting Zoi outside the household ride in your car. Some said it feels strange to give rides to complete strangers, while others said it feels natural to let anyone ride as long as you allow it. The team will review both views together.<\/p>\n
The city and NPCs
We\u2019ve seen your feedback that the city feels empty, that NPCs should do a wider range of activities, that Zoi and vehicles in the distance suddenly pop into view, and that you\u2019d like to have neighbors. We also heard that students walking in a single line at school looks unnatural. For decorative buildings, some of you want them turned into empty lots, while others want to keep their beautiful exteriors and be able to build inside them. We\u2019ll consider both directions.<\/p>\n
Mods and Canvas
We see the issue of mods being force-unsubscribed and CC disappearing as something that absolutely needs to be fixed.
We\u2019ve also received your suggestions for mod management categories, per-save mod setups, duplicate texture storage, CurseForge filters, Canvas thumbnail editing, and testing mods without restarting the game.<\/p>\n
CAZ
There were a lot of requests for more male hairstyles and outfits. I\u2019ve also passed along your feedback on a separate bangs category, more ponytail styles, tattoo slots, and more detailed body shape sliders.<\/p>\n
Beyond this, you shared so many other ideas, including grocery stores, news and social media, school events, hotel management, per-room lighting, turning speakers on, and showing the reason when an invitation is declined. We\u2019re looking at all of them together as a team.<\/p>\n
Thank you again for all the long and thoughtful feedback this week. I\u2019ll share more news in the next post.<\/p>\n
