Yeah, I have heard some shit about the models, and admittedly I was a little put off by them at first. Mainly, because they are so different from anything else you see. In saying that, there is something more real about them than other games. They look more like girls would actually meet in the real world and in that sense this makes them quite attractive, at least to me. Also, playing the game and seeing their personalities develop (the daughters), the level of attraction rose for me, especially the younger daughter. However, in saying all of this, if the models are that abhorrent to you, then don't play the game. No need to shit all over someone else's creation because you don't like it. There are plenty of other games out there with more "traditional" models.
