    @OriginInsider I can't log in to Origin. I can't login to the EA app. I can't login to the Apex forums, I can't even go to the Origin website. I have no recourse in contacting you because any way to contact you is not working for me.

    @redalpha23sims @TheSims @OriginInsider I will try it too. I have repaired it yesterday. But somehow, this might be a glitch? Imagine that if one can download all the DLCs for free?

    @Turtle502 @EA @OriginInsider Thanks for the suggestion, Turtle! After reading 200 forum posts where people were having this EXACT SAME problem, I decided to re-install Origin. Worked like a charm! Why is this so often required, EA? (sigh)

    @OriginInsider Your client is absolute trash and fails to load games over and over. Please hire a team to work on this infuriating client. I have zero issues like this with @Steam, for example.

    @OriginInsider @EAHelp @EAPlay Please fix KotOR and KotOR 2 so they work with widescreens by default. It's a little ridiculous that I have to do extra work to play a game and have it not look like garbage. You should be able to at least play it widescreen by default.

    @ExodusXML @DANNYonPC @OriginInsider true. It's so bad. Took me 3 days to fix Battlefield 3. Was pretty easy at the end of the day but it shouldn't be this bad in the first place

    @OriginInsider not sure if you guys are aware of a loading issue. Can’t go online (yes bill is up to date)! Tried twice. People have reported outages on Downdetector.

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider EA wants to push broken crap on us. I hate EA Beta, it always broken and it says I don’t own Sims 4 when I have the receipts to prove it

    @OriginInsider Why must I log in to Origin to play offline games? Why must I update it to play offline games? Why does the update screen patronise me by smugly professing how fast its downloads are, when this intrusive and unnecessary update is the very culprit behind my problem?
