Origin Fail - Or am I doing it wrong?

[Gimpymoo]

I have activated my Sims 3 game and expansions from Steam into Origin.

It appears I have to install each program separately and deal with the appropriate installers?

And, I have to install updates manually?

Typical sims, you have to install every DLC separately always been the same!

Except if you have it on Steam where it all installs in one go without having to use the installer.

Well, I I did try and it still sucks. Last time I tried Origin was at launch after using the AWFUL E.A Download manager, remember that?

Still playing catch up to get the basics right.

Shocking.

Will call the £8 a loss and await the Christmas sale on Steam to get the expansion pack I want.

Note to self, there was a reason you have not purchased an E.A game outside Steam for 5+ years.
