Been trying to fight it for a while, but now with the extremely cheap Humble Bundle, Mirror's Edge 2, a new Star Wars Battlefront game...

Is it worth installing it? Any serious issues that I'm probably unaware of?

I don't think I can keep the fight up much longer. :3

EDIT: Free Battlefield 1942 convinced me to get it. Closing this thread before it turns into a shitstorm.

Thanks!

Despite all this nonesense hating, Origin is pretty good/decent, and from client standpoint, it's even better than Steam (Works much faster and with less bugs and crashes).

its not nonsensical, EA have a terrible Rep and origin used to be spyware but they have apparently since changed their EULA

As long as you dont want to play the ultra DRM-free you will have to install it anyway to play these upcoming games. Also for ME3, BF3, DS3, Sims 3 and Crysis 3. And HL3 ofc. All other are just downloaded by Origin and run without it then.

Download it, you have nothing to lose. Just expect the worst, most of the time.
