    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.

    @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 How do I fix it so the application works on my computer again? Windows wants me to delete the program due to the shortcut no longer working properly.

    OMG the @PlayApex update on @OriginInsider is so freakin broken for me. Stuck at 7% for 40 minutes .. paused, resumed, jumped to 70% but then once hit 100 it went to another "updating" timer .. 49 minutes since hitting the update button .. still no game

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider I'm also getting a download error. The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff, from Origin and EA App download error. I contacted EA and they basically told me to "sit and wait".

    @robertgaloci @OriginInsider Hello, my entire Sims 4 collection has vanished from my game library. The CS emails have been insufficient and haven't solved the issue. I WANT A refund!

    Why is it taking so long to fix Orgin? All I want to do is update Sims 4 and play but I can't and don't tell me to try downloading the EA app because I already did and it's not loading up. Please hurry and fix this. It's very frustrating and disappointing. @OriginInsider @EA

    AedanStarfang (Stumbling Innit...) (@AedanStarfang) reported

    Folks if you launch @thesims and it takes an inordinate amount of time to launch, gives you a "white screen" on start-up, and/or is unplayable due to in-game lag...save yourself a headache & CLEAR THE @Origininsider CACHE!!

    @EA should have stuck with the @OriginInsider app. I had few issues with Origin, but am lucky when I’m able to get my Sims games to load with the EA app.

    Anyone else having massive issues with @OriginInsider @TheSims not wanting to work at all after it updates? My game will not repair and I keep getting error messages. The game will never open either. This is the 3rd time I’ve reinstalled Origin

    @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
