    Thanks for your reply I should've replied earlier but couldn't, here's what I did:

    Saw your post

    Clicked the link

    Realized it was not going to be easy, but totally worthy, so...

    I started Origin, Origin started to "repair" my game for the fourth time

    To reinstall Origin I had to turn it off first ('cause I had done everything else)

    It wouldn't close 'cause it was well, busy downloading for the 4th time

    So I unqueued all of the packs and expansions and just let it download the main game

    It finished in 5 seconds

    I ran the game

    and guess what?

    It ran. It executed perfectly and beautifully as always, well, not always, I had a major issue a while ago but that's another story

    So that's that, thanks for your help, the issue I repaired it in the first place got fixed, btw so the only question left is will Origin behave the same the next time I repair my game?

    Oh and I deactivated Origin in the game

    Thanks so so so much again!

    @paolaelectra No, it shouldn't. Origin might have had an issue or something.

    A repair checks your local files against the server ones and repairs anything that doesn't match up .. usually that's not much to download, just a verification process.
