Games from Steam to EA
I had bought Sims 3 off Steam years ago before I had gotten the EA app. I don't know how to link the Sims 3 to EA. I can login on the game, but it still won't show up on the app.

To avoid these kind of problems there is one simple solution, but it seems it's not to everyones liking. Also I've posted similar before:
I stopped linking around 3 years ago as of now. Before that I had a few issues, but mostly OK. Still it was annoying.
What I do now is if I find a game on Steam, that is published by EA, which is always clearly stated on the Steam store page, I simply close Steam, fire up the EA app and purchase directly that way. It removes the "linking," of Steam to EA or Steam to EA app. Not sure the two launchers like each other much!
Anyway, the reason for posting this again is that since then, I have never had any issue launching any game.
EA app - game.
rather than:
Steam - link to EA - game.
It completely removes any issues that may be caused by linking, or using two apps for one game.
