Something is preventing your game from loading the proper version, it still wants to run the Legacy Edition. Is that config.log file in a folder called The Sims 4, or The Sims 4 Legacy Edition?

That folder is also showing that it can't properly sync with your iCloud Drive (the ! in the cloud icon). The issue maybe that your iCloud Drive is full, it looks that way from the update button in the top right too. Check your settings and if possible disable it completely. Then launch the game and hopefully a new Sims 4 folder will be created - https://bluebellflora.com/2017/02/06/sims-3-and-sims-4-not-loading-save-games/ So I followed what you said, but I'm having the same issue with the video card.

Ok. If the config log is showing the same details as before I'm really not sure what is going on. Let's tell your Mac to only use the dedicated AMD GPU - open System Preferences > Energy Saver and uncheck the top box to disable Automatic Graphics Switching.
