this is much. i HATE origin. and have a few games that i just wont play anymore because im not installing there crap on my pc. i guess if i cant do a cd and NOT had origin i will be missing out on a SIM game i have loved since i was a kid playing the first simcity.
edit. sorry it took so long to get back to this. i have been busy and was on my phone at the time. I personaly had bad experiances with origin. for starters when SWTOR came out i had pre ordered it and got everything setup. for some reason i was unable to download the game for 2 days though origin. i let that slide enjoyed the game for a time. then when mass effect 3 came out i had yet again another problem downloading the game though origin. wasent as bad as the first time but had to redownload it twice because of corrupt files. currently i am banned from multiplayer mass effect 3 for "cheating" i think they said. but im not sure how i could have cheated if i never played it online. and if doing something they dont like in single player is a reason to bann me from multiplayer then thats complete bullshit. since i found out i was banned from a games multi player that i had never eaven played online i uninstalled it. i will not be buying a origin only title. EA over bearing hold on games HAVING to have a "social side" ruins alot of these games for me.
for simcity i would not want t log on and play with people. simcity was always a game where i throw on a old movie and build a city or do other things while it going on. was always a single player affair for me and i dont like the idea of a "Always connected" simcity that also requires me to install software that has been nothing but trouble for me personaly. All in all im just over giving my money to a gaming company thats stuck on the idea its ok to tell me how and when and where i can enjoy the product i paids 50+ dollars for.
