    Hi @OriginInsider @masseffect @bioware. I just reinstalled Mass Effect 2 after 2 years of not playing it. I can't load my save file because I can't access the Cerberus Network (and my DLC). Is there any fix for this?

    @OriginInsider So is this why I can't access my sims4 that I PAID FOR! Because I'm starting to get angry with your system not working. I'm not paying 4.99 just to use a game I already fully own. The reason better not be that I HAVE to have a membership or ill be pissed

    That moment when you wanna play a singleplayer game, but can't because @OriginInsider login is down due to "technical difficulties" Really makes you wish you still had physical copies of games
