Uncheck "Online Social Features Access" in game options under Other, and hit Apply Changes.
Exit the game.
Go to My Documents\My Games\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 and delete accountDataDB.package
Open the game again. You should no longer have an event notification at the top left, nor should you be prompted to start the event. If you need to use the Gallery, unfortunately you'll have to turn on Online Social Features Access, do your gallery things, and then repeat this whole process again.
Happy Simming!
I've honestly been staying in offline mode for the last little while if I found that I need to do anymore projects in The Sims 4. However, what I would do before actually starting a new session is getting anything from the gallery beforehand and then save and quit, put the EA App to offline mode, delete that file, and open the game to start doing the project. Yes obviously this isn't very ideal, but it's honestly a last resort (for now). I'm obvously still not fond of EA for not giving players a way to easily turn them off, but doing this method has made me feel less annoyed and stressed when I needed to get projects done in The Sims 4. I feel like these days, I only use The Sims 4 for specific project, but for real fun, I'll stick to The Sims 2 and The Sims 3. PS: I've taken over 100,000 screenshots with the projects I've done in The Sims 4, so was playing it all for nothing? Absolutely not! It was worth doing actually, even though the game has gotten more annoying these days. I have absolutely no regrets. 😁
