That's debatable. My computer is horrible with discs, to the point of sometimes stopping an installation halfway just because it decided to stop reading the darn thing. It doesn't do this with DVDs or CDs, just games because it likes to troll me. To top it all off, finding Sims games over here is nearly impossible anyways, so Digital Download is a blessing for me. No shipping fees that go through the roof, no computer being annoying, and I have never had a problem with Origin either. One bad experience is of course bound to happen every now and then no matter what way you choose to buy, it doesn't make either option better or worse, just gives costumers more options to fit their particular needs.
On another topic, got invited to yet another party. Noticed that the neighbors seem to invite you to parties on holidays now if you haven't set a party for that day yourself. It was a costume party, and I had to end up making their costumes myself, because those original costumes were so mismatched it wasn't even funny. ID I did notice that whenever I switch around some apparel on either the mirror or the wardrobe, the hat my Sim is using for outerwear resets to whatever it fancies instead of what I had set for it, which is getting annoying. On the bright side, this is really the only annoying thing I have encountered with this expansion so far, so I can't complain much. Also, my poor Specter and Lori (Pit bull and Catalina Macaw) died one right after the other. Got another pup from the shelter already, she is only lazy but looked too cute to pass up (Watch her grow up to be a mutant) and will hopefully find another bird for David, but in the meantime, I am having a sad. I was expecting Specter at least to last longer considering he had been a gourmet pooch all of his life. V.V
