It's silly of me because I trust Steam just fine. I know people mistrust digital programs and features keeping track of your stuff, I hated it in the beginning too but have grown to love not having to pile icons or use discs to launch and verify. No more discs to have to keep hanging out to launch games from and less icon clutter on the desktop. Honestly they are fantastic once you get used to it. It's supposed to be a competitor for Steam. However, it just says you don't have to be online, which I guess would mean you open Origin through offline mode? Once installed, you don't need to be online to play.' You will need an EA/Origin account to install the game. Does The Sims 4 require the Origin™ client to play? I have similar issues with Origin and I simply do not like relying on a program to run my games. I thought I read that somewhere but it could've been someone just speculating. Hmm, I thought for some reason you only had to register through origin, and that if you had a physical copy after you could run it from the disk.
