    Finally, I found a decision. Not the best one, but at least game works perfectly now.

    To everybody, who have problems with missing logo, intro or in-game videos:

    1- uninstall DS2

    2- Change Origin language to English (US)

    3- Install DS2

    3- Enjoy the game

    The only problem is: after that game would be completely in English. It's fine for me, but may be a nightmare for those, who have problems with English.

    I suppose, that Origin chose localization pack (including video) accordingly to Origin language settings, regardless of game version. But there is no dubbed videos for Russian language. So Origin, as a clever programm, decide not to confuse russian (and sometimes german) users with English language and simply DOES NOT load video with the game.( "movies" folder and all VP-files are not downloading). 8.6 GB instead of 9.4 GB.

    I think, for language packs, that have not dubbed videos, Origin should download English ones by Default - because there are good subtitles provided (as always in EA games, IMHO).

Yes, I've played the game about 2 or 3 hours back in November 2013. There is only cloud save data. The game was purchased via Origin (25.8.2013).
