i just sent Steam a refund request. I can't get this to work and this shouldn't be all this hard for the game to work and I'm tried of Origin vs. Steam fight and ill just get a refund and when Sims gets released on sale on Humble Bundle or Origin ill rebuy it and just deal with it then. I'm not spending $40 on it on origin when steam as it for $20 but sadly for whatever reason mine not working when using steam and Steam just can't give me a code and be done with it.
Thank you to all for the help and sadly this issue isn't and I don't think it will ever be. But thank you to the ones that help and tried. I deeply appreciate it. - crinrict5 years agoHero+@DDRacing29 Hope there will be a sale for you soon.

I pretty much had the same problem with you. I buy The Sims 4 on Steam, when I try to run it, it requires Origin to be installed and it prompted/asked my The Sims 4 Product Key (which I do not have from Steam). Think starting a game you properly buy shouldn't be this hard ☹️

Yes. I just bought the base game from Steam. However, I need to update this. Just before, I managed to play the game, like 1 hour ago.
Here is what happen:
I try to restart my computer, then click play from Steam.
Origin prompted, give me error message "Origin encountered an issue loding this page. Pls try reloading it - id that doesn't work, restart the client or try again later."
I ignore it, proceed to close Origin and click Play The Sims 4 again on Steam. This time, the game started.
I do not know exactly what's happened, but I think there's stability issue from Origin ☹️

@derMemory make sure that you have a stable network connection while starting the game for the first time.
Do you have any anti virus or firewall blocking Steam or Origin?
