Anyone else think Origin sucks?

[Brad McQuaid]

like seriously i just went through about 3 screens trying to get my password, i had to change it, and then it says it couldnt link my account. i wish EA didnt make good games so i could hate them

[Irregular Seconds]

The client simply has stopped working on my computer -- it's rubbish.

[AGiddyThing]

Yeahhhh, I don't know anyone that can tolerate it. I only signed up for that $20 off coupon debacle they had a while ago, but their DRM is so ridiculous that I just said screw it and bought ME on Steam instead. I hate EA on principle, good games be damned.

[Conjured Ghoul]

The only reason I have origin is for Battlefield. It is honestly such a terrible client

[Brad McQuaid]

ik right? like seriosuly battlefield is the only reason to have it. and yeah drm sucks on it. no sales? GONE

Same with Steam. :(

[Gurrarn]

It's alright. I prefer its overlay to Steam's though. Steam's overlay likes to crash on me a lot.
I only use Origin for Battlefield, Dragon Age, and Mass Effect mainly. If I could, I'd use Steam for all of my games.

[Maverick]

only had it for BF3 and that was a long time ago, I don't even have Origin installed on my computer anymore. they SUCK !!!!

[Ambiance.]

still need to use the piece of crap from battlefield :C

I never had any isses with origin to be honest. But then again the only thing I use it for is to play Dead Space 3 and very occasionally Battlefield 3, so it's not like I'm even on it enough to come across any problems that might be noticable to people who regularly use it.

I only use it for Sims.

[Night_Fiend6]

It does not work on Linux, even under WINE so I don't really use it. I think I have an account for Burnout Paradise on PS3 but I don't remember the password.

I preffer Steam, and GOG.

Their customer service is quite good, they hooked me up with another sims 3 code for me, but the problem is 1. everything is incredibly overpriced and 2. there is no community at all. If Titanfall was also on STEAM, it wouldn't be dead.

Pretty sure the reason its dead is that, while a good game, it gets old fast.

Multiplayer games like BF (last I played was 3 mind) didn't suffer as badly as titanfall did despite being origin only.

In the end if a game is decent and has replay value, people will keep playing it. Steam/origin are irrelevant.

I never had an issue with it. If you ignore the religious fanatics want Steam to be the "be and end all" of PC gaming, there's not really much bad you can say about it.
