If you’re having trouble with Origin installs failing for every game, at the directX dependency installation step at the end, I found one solution.
Steam is rock solid on this one so… really highlights what’s sucking right now about having multiple stores. Imagine having to go to more stores than Amazon 🙂 There’s good and bad to it hah.
Anyhow, navigate to your Origin Games folder. Usually
C:/Program Files (x86)/Origin Games
Click into your game.
Click into the __install folder
Click into directx/redist
Delete all .cab files (maybe ~20 of them) such that there is only the directx installer and a few .dlls
Run the directx installer that’s in the folder
Reopen Origin
Done
