Choosing Language

I came here by a google search on how to change the language. I bought the game in the Netherlands and it automatically installed in Dutch. I prefer to play my games in English and as a matter of fact I think some of the Dutch translations are very awkward! It annoyed me pretty much.

So I come here and I find out that I have to uninstall my game, change origin (which didn't let me pick a language at setup either) and redownload it. I am currently doing just that and I hope it will fix the language, but I do have some issues with needing to do it this way:

- It is a lot of bulk for something that simply could be put in a menu.

- It takes a LOOT of time to redownload, especially when one has all the expansions

- Uninstalling removes all of my progress, from houses I built, to sims I made, to stuff I unlocked by achieving high careers.

Now, if I were presented with a choice during the setup, and I picked something which I later regretted, I would understand all the hassle. But this option is not there. As a matter of fact, the only thing I can choose with the setup is whether I want desktop/startmenu icons. This sounds like pretty much nothing for a game that came out and is actively updated in 2014/2015.

So please EA, consider to find a more workable solution. I would suggest that people get the option to choose which languages they want to download at the start of the setup, and then a menu in-game where people can switch between what is chosen. And/or the option to download just an extra language pack instead of redownloading the WHOLE game. This needs fixing!
