Re: Why does the Sims 4 need to update so often?
@Knatterstick Sims 4 updates are typically released once every four or five weeks. It's only occasionally that a second update follows the first, and that's always a hotfix for some serious issue that appeared with the first update. No game released these days is bug-free, and although we might very much want fewer bugs overall, there will always be enough to require patching. That's even more true for games that are still releasing new content.
If you don't want to keep updating, you can run Origin in offline mode, as described earlier.
