The Sims is about to get a lot more weird with the latest update. The highly addictive simulator game is adding in a First-Person mode for the first time ever and players have already been plotting all of the weird things they're going to do with it.

The feature that initially started out as a joke is actually here as the latest blog post raves, " WE'RE INTRODUCING A FIRST-PERSON CAMERA OPTION! Please excuse the all-caps, but this. Is. Huge. We're so excited to see how this will change the way you play."

Oh EA you sweet summer child from r/thesims

"Oh you sweet, Summer child." The corresponding Reddit and Twitter all are down to get their freak on toon-style.

Despite the weird, most players are loving it despite a few mentioning that the new mode is causing motion sickness. One Twitter user did offer a little advice to help with that nasty side effect, however: "A reminder for players who suffer motion sickness. You can adjust FOV by using the mouse wheel while in first person mode. The Sims will hopefully allow us to set a default as you'll need to adjust this every time. Scroll down to increase field of view, which is better for most."

The latest update is now live! You can see what else is new, including the Terrain update, right here on the official Sims 4 website.
