Are you having fun playing Sims 4 without mods?

I limp along without them. While I've read here mods have benefits, have also read how there are conflicts with one another and the game itself, and I don't have the time or patience to deal with that. Nor do I have the time or patience to deal with the slaughter house every time EA brings out a new pack/major patch. My mod is TS2, where the game rocks as is!

I have some mods atm, and trying some of them out for the first time. I do love playing with them though, especially the meaningful stories mod and ui cheats make my game better I think. But I can play without gameplay mods as well and still really enjoy the game. :smile:

I only use MCC. If the sims had story progression I probably wouldn't use it. But I can enjoy my game without it and have before.

Sometimes switch off mods to make noCC Sims or builds for the Gallery. Usually end up screaming internally within ten minutes.

The game is dull as rain even with standard mods. If it wasn't for the build features it wouldn't be worth playing, for me at any rate. Some exotic mods like Wicked Whims and the Sacrificial mods manage to inject a semblance of entertainment though. But I think I'll soon be due for a break.

I only have mods to add things that are missing, like nails and certain hair styles and chickens and a church lot trait. But I mostly like to play the game as is. So, I keep my mod folder to a minimum.

In TS3 after adding Island Paradise I had to get mods to make the game playable and finally came over to TS4 Christmas 2018 when even with mods TS3 was still too laggy and buggy. ((plays small violin, cause still in her feelings about this))

I really wish EA would've fixed all the problems with Island Paradise and pushed a new repaired world to everyone who purchased that EP -- and I paid full price for it too, not discounted.

I'm glad they push lots of freebies when they release a new EP/GP too. But there are still some things that I want in game that EA hasn't made, so I turn to some mods, mostly CC CAS or build stuff, not anything that fundamentally changes the games programming.

I can live/play without mods, since I normally only use them to fix bugs and glitches.

The mods I use are mostly bug-fixes, an eye mod as well as a few others like personality please and a few custom stuff packs.

Yes, I can make myself content to play without mods, but since I use Road to Fame to allow for a singer Sim again, I am really preferring to have that in my game. Plus, if I try to play my ancestral game save, I'm limited to 8 Sims on a lot which wouldn't do. Just which of my ancestors am I to leave out? For instance, my fifth great-grandfather was baby number seven. :open_mouth:

I added so many mods into Sims 2 and expected to do the same for Sims 4 but so far, I find no reason to touch mods. I enjoy the game as is and haven't found myself bored. For different sims and their personalities, I try to do things in the game I've never touched or tried before. Which, as it turns out, is a lot.
