I just had the same issue happen to me; I was playing the Sims 4 for like 4 hours or so as well when the notification happened, and I have all of my play time limit settings turned off. Also, I've literally never set time limits before either, and everything is turned to unlimited as well if I turn that customization slider on. So I'm really not sure where the app is suddenly getting this whole time limit thing from. Yet the notification told me that I was like 7 or 8 hours over that non-existent limit. 😞 I mean, I love the Sims 4 as much as the next newbie to the Sims fandom, but I know for a fact that I don't play for THAT long in one sitting!
And just saying; I had to manage a Werewolf Sim unexpectedly rampaging at a Windenburg Bluffs party when this happened... Right in the middle of my attempts to get him to regain control, the notification somehow decided to go off on me like 5 times in the span of 2 or 3 minutes, just to rub salt in the wounds. 😬
EDIT: just got another notification that I'm 24 hours over my non-existent time limit... This one was after like 2 or 3 hours of the Sims 4. Okay, I DEFINITELY don't play that long, and haven't played for that long... Because last time I checked, humans need sleep to survive. 😃
I just started experiencing this. Somehow got 333 hours over my playtime??? I'm like how the app is just sitting there idle with no game open even, and my pc hasn't even been on for 333 hours straight.
