Re: Is There a Way to Install Sims 4 Without Logging Into Origin Client?

I FINALLY managed to install my Sims 4 game through Origin yesterday, but now I can't open it. Online login is unavailable as usual, but I thought I didn't need to be online anymore?!

The game I registered and installed and played yesterday isn't in my list of games on Origin anymore. Whenever I try to open the game from the disc it wants me to activate it again, although I already did. It's installed on my computer, but I can't open it. It's driving me CRAZY!!!

What can I do? What do we do when Origin doesn't exist anyway? Do we sit there with a useless game?

    You have to have internet to install, but you can play it without internet.

    Step 1.  Go online and reinstall your Sims 4- (If it didn't appear in your games list)

    Step 2.  Click the Origin application

    Step 3.  Log in to Origin the same way you would if you were online.

    Step 4. (Optional) Click Remember Me

    Step 5. In the menu, click Play Offline.

    Step 6.Click the Sims 4 in your games.

    Then, you're done!

    Hope this helps.
