Can 2 people in the same house play same game at the same time?

@stacyrings To play the Sims 3 now you should have your Sims 3 games in an Origin account. Only one user can have the Origin account open (logged in) at a time. This game is not multi user. Your game can only be activated to one Origin account. If you install the game to one Origin account you can not play the game in another account - the game will not run. You need to reinstall the game to the account you wish to use. According to the EULA two users can use the same account but not at the same time. Two users can play different games on different computers with different accounts amd the two won't be playing the same game.. As the game coding is NOT multi user there is no way to play the same account on different conputers at the same time. The Sims 3 was released with SecuROM and SafeDisc. These DRMs were poorly supported and as of Windows 10 and El Capitan are no longer supported. Using the original DRM was confusing and was difficult for users to use. They were considered rootkits that left left computers open to possible hacking. EA chose to use Origin which is much like Valve Steam for DRM. I hope this answers your questions.
