Why are you buying the Moschino SP?

As this new DLC comes closer to the Origin store, what is the main highlight for you on purchasing the Moschino Stuff Pack?
  • I haven't decided yet, I'm always down for new clothing for my sims, but ultra-modern isn't really my thing. So I'm going to wait and see.
  • I'm not buying and will never buy it, I don't care for the CAS and I don't really use or value the photography skill. Some of the build items are nice but not enough for me to purchase.
  • The only reason I bought it was for the photography career. I was hoping for a specific lot type for the photography studio (they didn't add it in go figure). Of course it's bugged out so bad that the game freezes every time I go to take pictures. The photos that are sent off for approval rarely come back. Needing an update super bad right now. *SIGH*

    I haven't bought it yet but I am getting it for the photography. I am wondering about stability when the screenshot folder gets crazy? I also want to know if you clean out the screenshot folder will you lose the pictures in game? I don't want to clog my harddrive with sims 4 screenshots...LOL I wonder if they even tested that.
  • I answered other but I bought it for the fashion photographer career. It still is freelancer and photography (both of which I thought was redundant) but I like the way they have combined them to make something new and use new skills or items. Seems like more thought when into them than the basic freelancer profession had where you get paid to do something you could get paid to do anyway. I'm happy with it so far.

    @keekee53 Photography is currently all-around broken in Moschino. The career having the biggest flaws. Best to wait for a patch or use mods for the poses and use what we got from GTW. :)


    It's not all-around broken. There's a simple workaround of using landscape for certain gigs until we get a patch. I haven't heard of any other serious issues and I've been using the career/skill ever since we got it.

    I want this pack mainly to have a way to take pics of my family members as they go through the different stages of their lives, go on vacations, get married, have children and grandchildren, celebrate holidays. To me, having photos of special events are important since our Sims don't retain memories of the special times in their lives. So the ability to take photos and display those in a Sim home just feels right and fits very well into the way I play. The B/B assets are suprisingly well done. But I am not at all excited about the CAS assets. Except for the new shoes. I do like the new shoes. LOL The new freelance career doesn't appeal to me, but who knows what I might do with it in the future.

    Some Simmers feel the new photography features should have been in a free update since the ability to take photos came in the Get To Work pack, and to them it feels as if they are paying for the same DLC twice. I have been very vocal about the fact so much from past packs has been added to the base game, and I felt it was unfair to the Simmers that paid for the content EA is handing out for free. But after seeing how much was added to the basic photography skill, I do not feel it should have been in a free update. It is obvious the teams put a lot of time and thought into everything in this pack that pertains to photography with the ability to pose your Sims, the new animated backdrops, the tripod and camera that go into your Sim's inventory so they can take photos in every world, the new types of frames that are now available, placeholders to pose our Sims on in groups, toddlers and pets can now be in any photo. They added so much that is going to make taking nice photos easier, I am happy they didn't add one or two of these new features in a free update then fill the pack with a lot of new clothing or outlandish B/B assets I will never use. I freely admit I was unhappy with the theme of this latest stuff pack. But I was also unhappy about StrangerVille and that game pack proved to be quite fun and I use a lot of the assets from that pack. The Moschino Stuff pack isn't about fashion. That became very clear during the guru live stream. This pack is all about photography, and I couldn't be happier with that being the case. I have always felt we needed a way to take better photos in the game without needing to use mods or the photo studio that came in GTW. But I have heard there are a couple of glitches associated with the freelance career. So I guess I will hold off on buying the pack for a few days just in case there are other glitches that might affect regular gameplay. I hope there aren't more glitches because I can't wait to take photos in Sulani, and of Granite Falls in the winter.



    Now if only they could get that pesky gnome to stop photobombing :)

    The gnome is disabled when taking pictures on the tripod.

    I wasn't planning to at first; but it was the only way to get the photography feature, job and items, so I ended getting it. Not all the times are bad; but some I will never use. It is an alright pack and since it was just under $10, it is not the biggest deal. Fast food cost way more.
  • I knew I wanted it right away. I love the two piece sets. Also the bb stuff is amazing
