Anyone else enjoy playing without cc or mods?

I can definitely play without cc and I’ve never been one for mods, I’ve had a few installed for years like more calendar traditions, more club icons, and a custom loading screen, but that’s all really, I don’t use anything that really alters the gameplay.

Depends on the cc. I never used to like alpha cc but then I found maxis match and it changed the game

"Maxis Match" is CC that is made with the vanilla base game in mind and is meant to match the style of it. "Alpha" is more realistic CC, I think it's named after the alpha channel?

I believe it’s meant to blend in to the game so using similar meshes or just recolours. I think Alpha is the content that has a more real feel to it and doesn’t ‘match’ the cartoon look in the game.

I only play with the basic Sims 4 with up to date Expansions, Game Packs & Stuffs.
I don't use any Mods, MCCs or CCs.

No mods, no cheats. It's enough of challenge building a community of Sims from scratch. I haven't found all the easter eggs in the basic game, either, and the various packs I do have still have more stuff in them than I know how to use, or get to.

I can play without cc. I’ve had my breaks from it where I’ll just play a few saves without it. But, I really like having 3D lashes, default eye replacement, and different hairs (for my teens). I never used mods up until maybe 3 months ago. I only use IU cheats to get rid of that pesky death sadness moodlet. I just got tired of my sims becoming sad every time a sibling, and aunt/uncle died. I just moved out 91/100 YA for the 100 baby challenge and I couldn’t have kept going with this challenge had they kept staying sad all of the time.

I have not used them in Sims 4 yet. In my experience once I start getting into cc for a game I start spending more time downloading it than playing the game, and I am not ready to go there yet with 4.

I do! I learned playing with CC's and mods the hard way with Sims 2. So I don't play with CC's and mods anymore no matter how good they sound or look.
