So much fuss... but.. mods?

Using Mods and CC always comes with a risk. Putting anything in your game not from the official source can potentially ruin your game. I haven't seen as much of this with the Sims 4, but with Sims 3, oh yesss. I was a victim of the corrupt doll downloaded from the Sims 3 exchange. At the time I had no idea of any of the risks of downloading lots and sims with CC into my game from the exchange . I learned otherwise when my game was wonky and corrupt and I had to remove it and reinstall. I lost everything I had done and wasn't happy. I left the game vanilla (and was sometimes very frustrated) until the end of the Sims 3, when after doing research I decided that it would be safe to install a few NRASS mods to help with the things about the Sims 3 that I loathe.

There are things that I really, really love about each of the sims games that I have, as well as things that I loath or really annoy me. I do use mods and CC with the Sims 4. I find them easier to use than in the Sims 3. I have been picky and am careful about who I download from and I accept responsibility for any damage they could do to my game. I would play the Sims 4 less without them. Having said that, not everyone is willing to take the risk. I was burned badly previously so I can understand why others might be unwilling to take a risk with mods\CC and instead ask the devs to fix, change or add features to the game.

I too was burned with CC in sims 3, not only caused a corrupt game, but a corrupt computer. After getting a new laptop with sims 4 I do not use mods or CC. (I'm still too scared). But there are tons of mods out there, and if someone was so unhappy with what the Devs are doing that they are sending death threats, then just use a mod. My whole point is that people are getting too fussy lately, and need to simmer down.
