Missing Interaction Options [PS4]

I'm playing the basic version of Sims 4 on PS4 (Version 1.70, updated 28/02/2023) and it seems like I don't have all interaction options available, wether with objects nor with Sims.

I have no DLCs or Mods or whatsoever installed.

I started a whole new game file, created new sims and placed them in an untouched neighborhood. But all of my problems even occur with pre-build sims, which are already in the neighborhood.

a few examples:

- The cellphone only has two options: Entertainment (browse web) and travel.

- I only have three conversation options with all sims (even if I'm best friends with them): Make a joke, introduce myself and discuss interests.

- I can't train charisma or any skill with objects. Same with programming or others. There are only limited options for all objects

- Even in the nightclub I only have the few convo options as mentioned above. Can't even buy a drink.

And the list of options missing goes on like that. It feels like playing a lite version of Sims 4.
I've already deinstalled and re-installed the game, searched for updates, restarted my console and everything.

Could it be, that I'm in some kind of tutorial mode? It would be pretty weird, because I played for about 50h on PC and never saw problems like that or that kind of "tutorial" in the beginning.
