I bought my game in Poland, but I prefer to play in English. I have Origin's lanugage setting on English and that worked for previous Sims games, however this time the game presented three options for installation: Czech, Polish, and Russian. No English on the list.
Is there a way to change the language? Or is there some kind of regional language restriction? And if there is, does it also apply to the disc version of the game? (cuz then I'd return the digital version and get the disc instead if thats true)
@homunculus420 I have moved your topic from the Origin forums to the Sims 4 section. Please do not create Sims 4 topics on the Origin section.
As mentioned in this thread http://answers.ea.com/t5/Origin/READ-HERE-For-any-type-of-issues-with-The-Sims-4/td-p/3432433
Thanks.1. Click start then run or Press Windows Key + R to open regedit 2. type regedit in the run box (if you click start then run) and press enter 3. go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Wow6432Node/Maxis/The Sims 4 and double click on Key string named "Locale" and change the value to "en_US" and save 5. start your SIMS 4 and the language will be in english.

If the language isn't available for your copy of the game, this won't work, and can break your install until the change is reverted.
so if I bought the game from poland origin I can't change the languange even if I don't understand and I can't play the game. I wasted my money then????
THANKSSS! <3

could you possibly help me aswell ?
which language version did you buy ? What issues are you having ?
If you bought the game in Poland, there's no english available.
- I also have this problem I bought a copy of Sims4 whilst on holiday in Poland and figured that just like when I install a game in the UK it would give me language options, now I'm unable to play and unable to return it, can anyone help?
