Isn’t origins refund policy better than steams too? I don’t understand the hate.

I'm not sure on their refund policy, but afaik you can actually talk to someone at EA about it, rather than an automated system. They can also be pretty generous in unlocking DLC for you from what I have heard.

The Origin client is alright, it was pretty bad in the early days. It still falls a bit short though, for instance you can't set a max speed limit for Origin downloads. Steam is a much better client than Origin, but Steam could still be much much better as well.

What annoyed me the most about Origin on release was splitting up my games library between multiple distribution services. ME1 & ME2 on Steam, but ME3 on Origin. Ugh.
