Posted August 3, 2013 Am I the only one who doesn't hate origin? I mean sure, it would be nice if all games were on steam but from a business standpoint it makes sense. I never have problems with it.

Posted August 3, 2013 Steam isn't all that great, but at least it didn't interrupt me every 15 minutes saying that it could not validate something when I played Mass Effect 3 (terrible game BTW).

Posted August 3, 2013 Origin isn't even bad. EA doesn't even make bad games. You're all just stubborn, and want everything exactly to your taste lol. The only thing I dislike about using Origin, is that I have no clue if my steam friends use it.

Posted August 4, 2013 Origin isn't as terrible as all the bandwagon haters like to think it is ;) Im still having issues with it, either it won't connect to the servers or i can't see my friends list. Or worse it tells me i didn't purchase a game in a trilogy so i have to fight it to make it work. Steam has the same issue but origins can be pretty bad at times, its not reliable enough.

Posted August 4, 2013 Like others say, I don't see what's wrong with origin. It's slightly annoying accessing your games through 2 programs, but really? Origin isn't even bad. EA doesn't even make bad games. You're all just stubborn, and want everything exactly to your taste lol. The only thing I dislike about using Origin, is that I have no clue if my steam friends use it. So I'm pretty lonely on Origin lol EA doesn't even "make" the games. They publish, release, manage the sale of games, DLC, etc. I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted August 5, 2013 Origin isn't that bad... But it's way worse than Steam. And I like Steam's idea of having everything easily accessible in one place, things like Origin and Uplay were too late to the 'party' and just screwed it up. If EA *fist bump* wants to sell more games and become a less hated company, they need to do what everyone else does and put their games on Steam. I hate to say it, but Origin is no way for them to make their own money. They'll make more money by selling games through Steam as more people will buy them.

So you're not liking Origin and Uplay because they were made after Steam? It sounds like you want Steam to be the only one in its category. People will like it, but it seems... harsh to not let (or give a fair chance) for other companies to take a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 5, 2013 So you're not liking Origin and Uplay because they were made after Steam? It sounds like you want Steam to be the only one in its category. People will like it, but it seems... harsh to not let (or give a fair chance) for other companies to take a try. I was late to the party with Steam. I hated it. I've gotten used to it now, but it's definitely not my favourite platform. I only made my account in mid-2011 and I've been primarily a PC gamer since 2008 or so and been playing on PC since way before. Part of the reason I hate Origin is that I only have it for one game (can you guess what it is?!). And I think all my friends are exactly the same. The other part, is that the only thing that they can do right, is when you install a game and copy it to the folder to save re-downloading it and it doesn't always work with that. That's something that Steam very rarely works properly with (hint, copy the folder to steam before buying it and it'll probably work - useful for when friends come round and they buy a game so you can play together but you want to play within a few minutes and not hours). Another reason, is the deals aren't as awesome as you get on Steam. Another reason is that the friends list doesn't work anywhere near as well as it could. I could go on and on about why I don't like it; some of the reasons apply to Steam too. Oh, and Uplay... Don't even get me started. I just flatout DESPISE it. And they let you buy their games on Steam! (Having said that, a friend opened it up the other day and Uplay seems to have some integration with Steam copies now! Haven't tested that theory yet, though. With Uplay, I can't even play my game unless I run the exe for the game itself. If I try to launch from Steam, it opens up Uplay and not the game. If I launch from Uplay, it tries to get me to re-download the game because it doesn't think it's installed. Grrr.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 5, 2013 Have had a Steam account since it launched and lets not forget about how much of a gong show it was in it's early years. It's taken them this long to be where they are today and it's far from perfect. Is it really that much of a hassle to click on the Origin icon to play a game? Nope.

I just click the icon and the game launches. Origin does have good sales, it's just their game library isn't as large. For example, Battlefield 3 was $5 (USD) last month, Tomb Raider was %50 off, mass effect was %50, Crysis 3 was %50, etc. The friend's list in Origin does work, but it doesn't look as good and there aren't many options. But Origin is fairly new, they'll probably add more features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Origin is fairly new, they'll probably add more features. Yeah, Origin is new, they'll add new features, the sales aren't too bad, etc. But there are problems with it, it's another overly heavy-usage program that I have to load either on startup or when I want to play a game. It uses more of my limited internet speed, it allows you to put old EA game serials into it and have them appear in Origin, but out of around 15 older EA titles I had, not one of them would work online. Also, it adds at least two more folders to my already cluttered file system. Finally... I've been using Origin since I got Battlefield 3 and I haven't seen a new feature since. EDIT: In response to Uplaybeing a pain, I think it may be because I have things not installed in the default locations. But it's still a major nuisance.
