CC Kit over Creator Kit?? Why??

For me it's just a preference to have official assets in my game. No need to worry about updating after patches. I'm not sure how prevalent it is but there are instances of broken CC after patches.

I’m with simgirl1010. I’d rather not have to worry about cc after every patch so I’d rather have the official content
Console users also don’t have access to mods so this is what is available to them. And it’s a great way to support the Creator as well. TBH some of the these creators I haven’t heard of so it’s also a great way to boost their profile and content

From what I've seen so far, the CC kits are done by those high quality CC creators, so I'm not worried about quality at all.  A given kit may not be to my aesthetic, but that doesn't make it a bad kit.

And while you can follow the CC creator yourself, you likely won't get these exact items, but something similar, because contracts will say that these items are exclusive to the deal with EA/Maxis.

And I'm a third person who doesn't want to worry about what broke after a patch, will the CC creator have time and energy to do the required updates... and if they do, how soon, etc.  I stopped using CC and mods for a reason.

IMO, if you like the look of a CC kit, you may as well go support the creator directly. They would be likely to have similar content on their own site already, since EA chooses each creator based on their proven strengths. As Satch pointed out in his review of one of the two new kits (I think it was Living Room), the quality of the CC by these creators is likely to be high since they were chosen by EA to create the kits. Plus they only get an up-front fee, which is likely modest, and maybe small cut of the profits from each kit. He speculated that they might get as much as 10%, but coming from an industry where work-for-hire is common, I'm guessing it's more like 3%. So, if you like a creator, they'd be better off if you directly donated them a full $5 rather than buy a kit. 

YMMV of course, but in my experience, bb CC doesn't break that often. I find that it tends to happen when EA decides to put something similar in the game that didn't exist before. For example, if the upcoming business and hobbies pack has a pool table, I won't be surprised if my CC pool table breaks.

As for updating and such, it doesn't bother me to wait for updated CC before updating my game. As a rule, I don't install every single patch as soon as it comes out; that way I don't have to update my mods and possibly CC every single time. In fact, I have been playing offline since May last year because I prefer to avoid the bugs that have come with each patch since Lovestruck. Whenever I feel like it's worth risking some bugs to update again (which might be never, honestly), I'll probably have to update some CC, not to mention most of my mods, just because it's been so long, but that's fine. 

I really like lilsimsie's kit, and I don't think she creates any other CC content. I rarely use CC because it takes up a lot of space, so I'm always happy to get official content from talented creators knowing they're getting compensated.

Some people don’t like dealing with CC, and console players can’t download CC, so the Creator Kits may be appealing to them.

My understanding is that there is very little input from EA in the Creator Kits, and to be honest this was visible in the first such kit they released. The chairs for example were almost identical to what we already have in game and there were some shadows missing with some shelves. So wish they would have more input into what goes into these Creator Kits, both for content but also for quality. The only reason to buy them is if you play on console or you don't want to bother looking for updates otherwise you are definitely better off just getting free CC or supporting the creator directly on their patreon.

This is the exception as it was made in collaboration with the influencer. She didn’t make the items outright like in the CC Kits

Which one was this?

Cc kits are definitely getting better, thought I felt the quality of the pajamas was a little soft. This new one with Pieri looks good but it’s by far less content than what you’d get by going straight to the source and subscribing 

It was the first creator kit they released, I forgot what it was called, with  he colorful orange couches and checkered fireplace.  I don't think you can get the items in the kit from the creator's site, so if you like something you would still have to buy it.
