So first off, I've been playing The Sims 4 for a while. I only recently noticed the messages on my loading screen. I know that Strangerville causes... odd messages to pop up but I do not own Strangerville. The most common message is just the word 'ok.' Another common one is 'I do not want free earbuds.' I also do not own the DLC with earbuds (not sure of the name). I have a few mods in my game, but most are minor gameplay tweaks and CC. Is anyone else having this issue? My game still runs fine and everything, I'm just a little bit confused.

I think we all got this.. there have been a few others who have mentioned this. It is just generated regardless of DLC you own and the OK one I do not think anyone knows exactly why.. that one is. So your game is alright it is just Sims being Sims is all.

@Thalia2335, yes, @RavenLure is correct that we all are getting these messages and it has nothing to do with which packs you own. It also has nothing to do with Mods or CC since I have the messages but I do not play with any Mods or CC. 😉
The Sims has a history of putting funny messages in the game, going back to the first version in 2000! 🙌 Back then it was the game loading screen that had a lot of them (people actually looked forward to getting a new EP because at that time the loading screen messages would get new ones with each pack! 😃) There were also mysterious phone calls your Sims would get randomly that were like funny prank calls.
In the Developer's Livestream for the Eco Lifestyle EP one of the Sim Gurus mentioned the new messages. They were only meant to be a joke. 😇 The earbuds one was added because in the most recent patch they took out the phone call that one of your Sims would get asking them if they wanted free earbuds (and then you would have to accept or decline the free earbuds, and the option to decline them read "No, I don't want free earbuds". This was from the Fitness Stuff Pack. The message that just says "OK" is just something to strike you as funny because it is so unexpected. When I read "OK", I actually laughed so loud my dog was startled ! 😃- LadyDarkSorrow6 years agoSeasoned Ace
I'm still LOL at "OK"

The OK one, which I have screenshot and have as my desktop background, is to do with the random/generalised OK answer that sims can give to the text messages and calls they receive.
