You will need to keep Origin installed, but you don't need two versions of the game installed. The fact that you'll have to buy it again if you want it here probably isn't going to change, not because it's EA but because they're a company that needs to make money. To make people buy it all again thats a bit greedy why should someone have to buy something that they already own just to be able to use a different launcher. So basically what your saying is id have to leave origin installed have 2 versions of the game installed just to play on steam? Whats the point of having it on steam i may as well just get a refund because i wanted to play on steam but i thought id be able to access all my DLC I have spent allot of money on DLC already. Then once you launch it via Steam and it's all downloaded, it will launch that specific version of Sims 4 and all your DLC will be there. The DLCs won't be downloaded via Steam, once it's tied to that Origin account you can open up Origin normally and there will be a separate instance of the game just for Steam and you can download all the DLC on that there. I have my origin account linked with my Steam account. Originally posted by FairlyGrimm:I own DLC on origin and bought the game on steam because it was supposed to transfer over DLC you own but its not saying i own any of the DLC on steam So how am i supposed to download the DLC on steam. You people "modifying " the game to get the dlc you should be paying for on steam, are essentially risking your accounts being permanently banned for what? It's basically the exact same thing since it requires you to be signed into origin either way. If you have all the content and want to play this on steam.then click add non steam game and save your money. This was put on steam for people who wanted to play the game on steam. This was not put on steam for people who already have the game on origin. Origins official stance on this matter is they want you to buy the content again. Nothing gets automatically transferred, and those "modifying" the game by copying their origin files to the steam folder and setting the steam and origin games to never update. The steam dlc is for the steam version of the game. If you have dlc on origin, that is for the origin version of the game. If I purchase Eco-Lifestyle DLC through Steam, will the Steam version recognize I have all the DLC installed then? After purchasing a Steam copy of the game, will I have access to all of my DLCs if I launch the Steam version of the game? Will all the DLC buttons in the main menu marked "Owned"?Ģ.

Let's say I own the base game and all DLC except Eco-Lifestyle on Origin.ġ. Originally posted by Lemonading:Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm still seeing mixed responses from reading online so far.
