So you're saying on top of the fact that we can't get rid of Origin anymore you can't bypass the launcher either ?
Oh, Sims 4, you do sound less and less appealing. It will take a great game for me to get past my Origin-phobia
Did you re-buy that new version ? On disc or download ? Can you still install from disc or did they change that too ?
LOL! I heard that when you buy Sims 4 an EA employee takes a sample of your blood, does a psychological analysis and hypnotises you to allow them to microchip you. Your location data will then be used to make stuff pack deals with places you shop like garden implement stores, chemists, polling booths and perhaps even strip joints.
Yep, forced Origin and launcher. It's disc based still, unless you download the digital version through Origin (I would rather eat my own face).
I thought I found the newer version a little more stable since it seemed to have a lot of the scrapped coding from the original game taken out (like the pre-release HUD elements and clothing store data) but it looks like replacing the base game wasn't worth it. IF I could be bothered and have a spare hour I'll wind it back....unless EA's men in black turn up on the doorstep. ;)
Since when I Origin forced? I don't think it opens up when I open the launcher or the game. But then again I just remembered that I sometimes get the 'can't connect to Origin' message when opening the launcher. But I figured this was to check for updates, Origin never appears to me :D
Not sure if it matters but I only have one DD (from Supernatural) but since I have Uni installed I use this disc to play.
