  @endme_raw @OriginInsider Origin is a steaming dog **** wrapped in C++. I hate the overlay. I hate the ****** connection issues. But most of all, I hate how so many good titles are chained to that useless platform. Let ppl play your games on non-Origin platforms you *****.

  @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)

  @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

  @ooboochoo @OriginInsider Id suggest finding the system files that are correlated to your game its already made a folder id suggest deleting it completely then reinstalling when you uninstall a game or repair it it always leave some bits behind and can cause some problems lmk if it works

  @eefuuck @OriginInsider Ugh I’m glad I’m not the only one. I couldn’t tell if it was my laptop or origin itself causing issues

  @MinicartTSR @OriginInsider I opened it earlier today and it worked, but it seems that EA servers have been having issues; they tweeted about it. Does Sims 2 show up in your EA App?

  @DukeSkath @EA @OriginInsider you may have to run the "fix origin" app they have included in the installation directory, it's some .exe file thy IIRC starts with "fix" or maybe "repair"

  Dear @EA and @OriginInsider, WHY would you send me to an new EA app, break my Origin (Which was working fine may I add!!) To only make my @TheSims game break!! NON OF MY EXTRA STUFF IS WORKING. The sims had issues before but this just overrules it all. Make it work, I paid for it

  Didnt realise that @OriginInsider EA app is made by like 2 ppl from an indie studio. Because it definitelly feels like it. Constant issues with "connection" and broken game launching. Not to mention basic UX/UI features completely missing.

  Hey, @OriginInsider Y'all need to fix y'all's customer support. I've been a customer with y'all for many years now. And the crap I'm going through they can't help and give me excuses not to help. It's ridiculous.
