    @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 hi, I have a problem with mi Origin account. Every time I try to play to The Sims 4, the game it's not running, instead Origin opens a window with the message: download error. I tried everything: repair the game, log out from Origin and nothing works. Help please

    @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.

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider I’ve been in beta test for the new EA application and I’ve had some minor issues here and there but it’s generally fixed pretty quickly. Might just be bugging now that everyone is being forced to switch over at once.

    Has anyone else had issues with @OriginInsider not allowing your payments to process if you've made several purchases already, no matter the card you use? I tried 5 different forms of payment and I was trying to load my guy up on @TheSims sale.

    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

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider I used the EA App some time ago but I went back to Origin because the EA one asked me to log in every single time I used, no matter if I checked the remember me box and it always said there was an error so I had to open the browser every single time. I didn't like it!

    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!!

    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

    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.
