Neighborhood Stories: Notification only gives one Story at the time

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.85.203.1230
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? when checking recent neighborhood stories, it only gives one notification vs 15-20
What happens when the bug occurs? only one notification vs 15-20
What do you expect to see? 15-20 notifications about what is going on in the world.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. the recent neighborhood stories patch.

‌

but basically, I removed all my mods and tested the game with no mods. only one notification popped up. when that didn't work I tried repairing the game and that didn't work, I was out of options of what to do.

    @mg6255k Do you not get another message when you click on the mail box again ? I'm not sure this is a bug. I think it's just how it works. You get one story at the time, each time you click.

    @crinrict Yeah, I tested it and there's usually 4 events in one day, but you need to click on the mailbox 4 times. A bit annoying if I forgot to click, because the next day I will have to click 8 times...and so on...

    yeah whenever I do click on the mailbox, the second notification after I click it again, says there are no recent neighborhood stories. only one notification and then no more stories.

    @mg6255k How are your settings ? Did you enable everything ?

    Could you test if the same happens in another save ?

    I see this as well, might not be a bug but there's room for improvement, even the NRAAS mods "story progression" can give a better, brief message about what happened on said day on The Sims 3
