Yep, that Update button is just vestigial. Ignore it. We meant to remove it, but ... Ooops.
As far as being on Beta Big Sur is concerned, yeah, it's been a rocky road (the Big Sur beta, that is - lots of things changed under the hood that are causing compatibility problems). Shouldn't be a problem here though. Works for me.

Hmmm ok, I’ve just uninstalled and am currently redownloading (I panick uninstalled)
If there’s still no luck I’ll post my specs. (It’s a new MacBook Pro 2020 though...)

@ad1991 I do know that Sims 3 works on the latest Big Sur beta, so that alone shouldn't be the issue.
Please restart your computer, sign into Origin, put it in offline mode, and try to launch the game. Don't open any other apps on your computer.
If that doesn't help, please post the full specs of your Mac, including OS build, as described here:
