Bugs after November 12 Patch
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.58.63.1010
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Pre ordered University, get famous, get together, seasons, city living. All game packs except for strangerville and for stuff packs laundry day, toddlers, romantic garden, movie hangout and spooky stuff.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure if I have seen many others experiencing this bug.
What happens when the bug occurs? After the most recent patch before Discover University gets released the new accessibility feature seems broken, there's no text and I can only see a blank frame where the options should be, for the new assigning bed option I can only see "..." same thing with the locking computers and transferring funds options.
What do you expect to see? Text that describes what the options are there for instead of just "..." or the blank frame.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. PC 1.58.63.1010, new patch prior to the release of Discover University.
After talking through direct messages on twitter with EAhelp I was advised to post about the issue in this forum, already tried to remove mods, repair game, reset game completely but none worked so I was told it may be a potential bug. The "..." options do work but I can't really see any text that indicates what they're there for. Here's the screenshots I took for better understanding.

@PugaLova Have you tried repairing your game through Origin yet ? If that doesn't help, it's best if you made your own thread here in tech, posting your specs.
@awallett Please also try to repair your game by right-clicking on the game in origin and hit repair game.
