Re: edi Fallen Order (purchased thru steam) crashes origin and doesnt launch

This is precisely why I wanted to buy it on Steam. I didn't want to deal with Origin's * like I am now. But it seems buying on steam was completely pointless! Lovely

  • Yep, that's PRECISELY why I bought on Steam too. I thought it would install and launch smoothly on Steam. 

    I've spent many months trying to get Origin to launch and run. I've tried EVERYTHING they say to do in the tech support forums and in the FAQs and NOTHING works. I run it in admin mode every time. I've put all the required permissions in my Windows firewall. I've uninstalled and reinstalled over and over and over. NOTHING works. 

    Meanwhile, Steam and Ubisoft have NONE of these issues. Origin is complete garbage. 

  • @javaguy418 You got that right. What a pain in my a$$. LAST TIME I make this mistake of buying an EA game again. This should be dead simple.
