There's nothing you can really do about this other than - free up more space - try looking at everything else that's on your Mac and seeing what else you don't care about you can delete. Is that trash can empty or are there deleted files in there you can get rid of?
I have every pack for The Sims 4 and it takes up 78 GB on my hard drive. The more packs you add, the more it will need.

Hello, thanks for responding, I appreciate it. The trash can is empty. I want to keep videos and a few photos, but it still seems like it's still asking for a lot of GB even when I keep deleting it. I will keep digging for more, besides delete more videos and photos. Thank you.

Okay, I was able to download the Sims 4 again finally. Omg I'm so happy! So I went to Google again for help to clear my system data again, I asked/stated to Google (the question was from earlier or yesterday in the google search before the GB went to 34 today , so I added "how to clear system data") : "i still cant download 23.21 gb on the EA app on mac after clearing most of the storage for the sims 4, how to clear system data", and one of the answers was - In Finder, go to the top menu, choose Go then Go To Folder and type: ~/Library/Application Support. " Instead of me deleting the EA or Origin folders only, I deleted all of the folders including the EA and/or Origin folder all together in that Application Support location section, and it added more space according to the Storage section in the System Settings to allow me to download the Sims 4 again. So far it's installing, which is good. Thanks for your assistance! Have a good weekend :)
