New freelancer careers, new content
A very nice live stream! I liked all new objects and especially the the new male clothes. The careers remind me of TS3 self-employed jobs.

Freelancer careers seem interesting, but why are jobs called gigs? For me, gigs are performances (on stage and so on). I think the word commission would fit better there.
Having worked/lived with folks doing freelance writing and programming, I can say it's pretty routine to refer to the contracts as gigs. Even in the corporate programming space where I work, we often call one off contract jobs, especially those that are weird or different, gigs. I don't know about digital artists, the only two I'm close to aren't freelance and are more in the UX space than say a concept artist would be.
ETA: Very excited for this. I think it looks like a nice change to the very "traditional" creative careers that never really interested me in the Sims 4. Also hoping it's easy to mod. It could be a great system for adding a little more character, and there could be some other skills and flavors that could hopefully be developed with relatively straightforward processes, and a place for talented and creative writers to maybe tell some stories. A recurring problem client, who constantly wants tweaks as you keep trying to submit the work comes to mind - someone who keeps moving the goals!
