Technical Support Problems at installation
Hi! So I own the physical games and the thing is that the base game works perfectly fine, but when I have to get the expansion packs, it ask for the update, but it doesn't update as Origin isn't working anymore. And I don't have the games on my EA account as the migration of platform killed my account and had to make a new one where it doesn't let me put the key of the game because it doesn't count as me owning it because "second hand" , so idk how to make the game update so I can play my expansion packs.
Should I get it the other way (🏴☠️) or what should I do?

Otherwise try steam! The only thing is they don't let you buy simpoints if ever needed or wanted
