I decided to move my Battlefield V game…

I decided to move my Battlefield V game from hard-drive C to another SSD in my computer. After selecting the file in my SSD, Origin became to crash and it doesnt even start the Origin app again.. Thank you EA.. Worst game store ever.

WORST GAMING PLATFORM

Constant updates (almost every 3-4) WHICH you can't play your games if you don't perform them. NO SUPPORT, constant bot replies if you need help. Worst of the worst. I wish FIFA used no platform (or a different one) for games. DON'T DOWNLOAD - SUPPORT - BUY Origin, if you have a chance.

worst platform ever

worst platform ever. Every time I try to update a game it gets all fkd up so it takes ages to download. Switched apex over to Steam because of this fkd up platform that can't do anything. I downloaded the new update on Origin first, when it said ready to play I pressed it and it started downloading all over again. was pissed off so I decided to delete the game and just finally switch to steam because Origin is just pure and pure trash

INCREDIBLY BUGGY AND FRUSTRATING

INCREDIBLY BUGGY AND FRUSTRATING
Of the 6 games I own on origin, only one of them has successfully installed and launched - the others I haven't even got to play. Biggest waste of time ever and have now cancelled my EA plus membership.

Always recommend.

I've never had an issue with Origin. I bought 3 new sims packs yesterday which once again all went smoothly. Highly recommend using origin.

Not surprised by all of the 1 star…

Not surprised by all of the 1 star reviews. Origin had so many download, install, and customer service issues, it wasted hours and days of my time without once being able to play the games I purchased. Their customer service representatives either never called me at my request, or would call and all I would hear is their personal music playing in the background and then would hang up on me. Sucked all the fun out of gaming. Of course, they never once offered any compensation for my wasted time. I would have expected at least some game points towards their store for all the issues and 0 hours of actual game play.

So retarted

So recently Star Wars battlefront 2 came out on the epic games store for free. Me not being r3tarded got the game on my epic games account which is linked to origin. I also own star wars battlefront 2 on my steam account. Now what really pisses me off is that I now can't launch star wars battlefront on my steam library. Origin claims its an unknown game. So now I have to enter a product code or some sh4t to play on steam. Which is bs. At the time of me righting this its now having a hissy fit because it doesn't recognise the game. I also want to play star wars Jedi fallen order but it now claims that the username is incorrect or some sh4t. I'm no expert but if origin used its brain this wouldn't be an issue!!! Don't get a game twice.

Very BAD

My games wouldent start so i asked customer support and before we had fixed the problem he left the chat just saying i should download another game and see if it would work then and if not i should inform them again with troubleshoot data. I will not recommend anything on here for anyone. Worst platform ever. Use steam instead.

Origin: Worst PC platform anyone could get.

The only time I have ever had to use origin is when I got jedi the fallen order and Star Wars battlefront 2. I have a gaming PC that is hard wired into my Internet service and the most updated graphics card that you can get. I can run a heavy HD games like Monster Hunter perfectly fine through steam. However ever since origin has been involved on my computer and has been one issue after another. I hate how I am paying for games that I can only play for an hour at a time before origin breaks down and freezes a game. Worst gaming platform, avoid if possible. Only rating one star because I cannot rate any lower.
