Origin does NOTHING but launch and I guess update the game (hasn't been a patch since the first day, though they have maintenance and server updates daily it seems), as mentioned it doesn't even provide friends list functionality... But if Battlelog can check whether your game is updated and tell Origin to launch the game, why couldn't it apply patches and launch the BF3 .exe itself? The only reason to require Origin for BF3 is to force people into "using" it.
Sure it has a friends list, that's pretty much the only point of the Origin overlay if you have it enabled. Or, on the Origin client, you can click the add friends button in the lower right corner. Unlike Steam I think the friends tab doesn't display if you're friendless.
I certainly agree Origin is required, not actually to provide the users with benefits, but to add a layer of DRM and install a games store. But the same is true of every game that requires Steam. Otherwise they wouldn't require it, they'd just let people use if if they choose. |
