Ideas
Hey guys, I just wanna share some really interesting solution I found from an amazing simmer on Simmatically Patreon regarding the fixing method. I haven't updated my game yet b/c I don't wanna ruin it forever, so I wanna ask if anyone who would like to try this way out. 😁
I hope it works for anybody who hasn't been able to play the game.
The game gave me, again, the failed to launch error, so I gave your suggestion a try, running it directly from TS4_x64.exe . I ended up entering immediately to the game, no error whatsoever. So it confirms my suspicions: It's not any of my CC or mods, they work correctly in game. The issue must be something related to the EA App and the game when launching, if it were a faulty CC, the game would have loaded and the error would appear when the CC is loading before the main screen.
I also tested going offline in the EA App, and trying to launch the game. Every single time I had success. I don't mind running the game in offline mode, in fact, it runs faster on my machine, but that's not the point, I kinda like to see the gallery from time to time, you know.

You could also try what Edw suggested, try to go to the folder where your game's executable is (in my case, it was "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4\Game\Bin" but yours can be different), localize TS4_x64.exe file and run directly from it, and see what happens. In my case, the game loaded successfully.
