Last night I was happily playing my Sims 3 game just fine with no problem. But today when I tried to upload the launcher it kept crashing within seconds several times. Then I finally realized that there was a notice on my Origin pop up saying, "Your Origin Membership has expired." I have NEVER payed for a membership on Origin. The ONLY EA game I have ever played is The Sims. The notice not only appears on the very top of the "Origin Access" page but it also shows up in "My Game Library" right on top of my Sims 3 game icon.
WHY is Origin asking me to pay for a membership just so I can play a one person game like the Sims 3 when I have never had to pay before? Is this a bug? My EA "Player Control" page says I'm Unlimited but "Origin Access" page says I'm inactive and that it's expired. Like I said before, I have NEVER paid for a membership on Origin, EVER.
Am I not understanding this right? Is Origin saying I have to pay again for my Sims 3 (which I have owned for 7 years) every single month just to play by myself? I didn't buy the Sims 3 just for a limit time use. That is not what the box said when I first purchased the CDs in a store 7 years ago.
I don't get it.
Can someone please tell me that I am wrong and overreacting and clear this confusion up for me? Is this a bug in Origin? And please tell me how I can fix it and get the launcher to stop crashing.
Thank You so very much for taking the time to read this. Any answer will be much appreciated.
