An option for more control over phone messages or to stop them

I’m a Storyteller and my Zois have their certain characteristics.
So these phone messages often do not match their usual behaviour.

It’s totally breaking my immersion that Vlad would send such needy messages even though their relationship is on max level and there is no need to be worried, he wouldn’t even worry if Ji Ho never sent a message.

I’d prefer some choices for the messages and that Zois I play don’t send messages autonomously.
Or an option to turn them completely off if that’s not possible.

It’s just drama for drama’s sake and it gets pushed at me so often even though I want to tell my own stories.

This counts also for forced movements, clothes changes and choices, NPCs they don’t want to interact with, crime, death and many other things I don’t want to happen in my game.

Please give Storytellers more freedom/options even if it’s just some cheats.

Every life becomes a story’ is inZOI’s tagline, please let me tell my Zois’ stories without them being forced into a certain, irrational (and often enough annoying) behaviour.

And I’m not alone, 40% of the voters of the ‘What’s your playstyle? poll see themselves as Storytellers :books: :writing_hand:

And please an option to stop such messages from NPCs we’ve never met, that’s really creepy/inappropriate

Jokes aside though, I agree. Just for kicks I accepted one such blind dates once, and it was a middle-aged man (so between 80-89 days old in current ruleset for aging). I never accepted another one after that, lol.
