Sims 4 causing brand new MacBook Air to run very hot?

I downloaded and installed the Sims 4 on my brand new MacBook Air last night, the game runs fine but the fan runs at full blast and the laptop gets super hot so much that I am not comfortable playing...

What do you mean Origin won't let you run it? What happens? Which version of macOS are you running?

    Lovely MacBook Air but yes, it's going to struggle with the game as it is so underpowered 🙂
