Re: why is Sims 4 requiring Origin to be running

Cause that's how it works now and you can't turn it off.

  • Per the the FAQ an internet connection is not required to run the game. Just for install and  registration. So i ask again, why does Sims 4 require origin to be running to play the game?

    Because that is how newer EA games work on PC.  It just is.

    Same way Steam games require steam even if it's played in Offline Mode.

    Origin is the launcher.

    You don't need Internet. Just put Origin in offline mode.
