In Game Notifications/Calls HAVE TO STOP!!!!
I know the vast majority of players have complained about this numerous times and continue to be gaslit about it so I thought I would make a thread myself to add to the collective due to the constant gaslighting on the issue.
Sims 4 In game notifications are constant, and pure harassment because they ruin the game experience. Now, the calendar update was supposed to have fixed this problem by letting you filter out what you didn't want to see/be harassed about. THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. Instead, we were given a worthless calendar update to filter things out but that doesn't actually DO anything - we still get the notifications. Make the update COMPLETE like we begged for constantly. We should be able to exclude ALL items in the calendar with either deleting them (and all future iterations of it) or toggling notifications for them. Why can we toggle on/off notifications for cupids corner/social bunny, but NOT be able to do the same for cheerleading/football/tea festival/etc? This is BROKEN.
You know that notification wall? It gets filled nearly exclusively with notifications for these events that are unwanted and we have to constantly stop what we're doing to address these pop ups. The same thing with the phone calls from sims - I don't just want to mute them - I want a SPAM BLOCKER to block all calls that are not relevant (ex of calls that would be relevant would be the school calling about your kid failing school or from your boss about an assignment) but not "hey, I heard you just became friends with "someone" and I think they're a cool person" because WTF? Stop calling me every couple of minutes. I literally get more ads/notifications/spam calls in the game then I do in real life - that is beyond messed up.
But I guess it's my fault? Because I bought too many Sims 4 packs? Maybe I should stop buying any more so I don't get anymore unwanted notifications since you won't fix this. Sure I own nearly all of them other than the worthless kits, but this is the sole reason I'm not buying any again. Bye bye hobby pack - you are not wanted because I'm sure there will just be more spam notifications so why harrass myself for what's probably mediocre gameplay features?
