Same here - reset Origin then tried to repair the game and it kept getting near the end then recycling.
First thing I did when I got up this morning was try again, just to patch, not to repair or reset Origin again, and it installed in seconds.
The only thing that isn’t working now is that I can only start the game through Origin, not directly, which is new for me, but at least I can play.
I hope everyone else gets fixed.

Hmm, I just tried and can load from the app directly. Could you run the Origin reset tool and see if that fixes it? https://help.ea.com/en-gb/help/origin/origin/how-to-reset-origin-on-mac/
Origin does seem insanely buggy at the moment. I just uninstalled a pack to test something and it didn't register in Origin until I ran the reset tool. Urgh.- 6 years ago

Urgh.Will, do, and will also see if I can repair the game now. It has been an intermittent problem for me since Eco Lifestyle, though, along with Origin crashing when I quit the game if I've managed to open it with the app.
Must do a bit of work first, though, to pay for the next pack ... 😂

OK. I reset Origin again, cleared the game caches and repaired. It opened from the app. Still closes/crashes Origin when I exit the game completely, though – I don't know whether that's a bug or a feature, Origin always used to stay open when I exited the game. Compared to not being able to do anything, I'll take that!
