Do you prefer to play vanilla (no cc/mods) or mods/cc?

At the very least I just need MCCC for a few tweaks here and there. I can live without it, but it's just really nice to have.

I can easily play without CC but I would struggle without MCCC. It’s such an amazing mod as I like having story progression in my game along with the other tweaks it offers to gameplay.

I like having CC to add some extra variety but sims 4 really has a decent catalogue in CAS and BB. I could live without it.

I feel as if the game is barely playable without MCCC. And I have so much CC which pads out the game beautifully! i keep my CC Maxis-Match only, so its seamless.

I agree about MCCC! It's truly amazing.

I love the Ui Extension Mod as well

With mods & CC. I need to have MCCC if nothing else. I used to hoard all kinds of CC. Now I'm pickier.

I couldn't play this game without mods. It has some horrible design choices.

I don't want anything that doesn't "belong" into the official game. There is enough CAS items with all the packs installed and also enough gameplay for me. I don't need anything more. Actually, male Sims need some more clothing options, but I can deal with the ones we have.

I play on gaming laptop, but I have a lot of lag and I wouldn't want to make it worse with CC or mods anyway.
Also I paid for this laptop more than I can afford, so I don't want to take any risks by downloding something that could damage it (virus).
And also I don't want to deal with removing and putting back mods every time there is an update or if there is a new bug, guessing if it's because of the mods or what, worst case having to test all the mods one by one which one is causing problems. I'd rather spend all that time for playing the actual game.

Mostly vanilla (also my favorite ice cream) I have tried Mccc but uninstalled it. Prefer it without for now and am enjoying my game. I lack fashion sense myself so have not found any need to download anything extra for my sims..
I do have Sims3 fairly modded up though so its not like I am afraid of them. LOL

I don’t use MCCC, but I have a couple of mods and about a million pieces of cc.

Just mods. I refused it for a long time, but given how few options we have in the official game settings, MCCC has become essential for me. I do have a couple of other tuning mods/bug fixes, but that's about it. On a rare occasion I use pose player as well.
I don't use cc because it's so addictive. I'm not stepping on that slippery slope ;) And given how much I hate searching for the right poses, I can't imagine I'd find cc hunting much fun either.
