Can't download this game specifically
All other EA desktop games downloading perfectly fine. Tried reinstalling EA app, tried running in admin. Tried restarting computer.

Yup I have the same issue, it's kinda crazy that EA is the only platform where you have so many issues, I was very mad after I realized that Fallen Order downloaded in my native language (polish) and I had to reinstall it in order to change spoken language to english, and now this with DAI, why won't you guys just fix your platform?
Okay, so I finally managed to download the game itself, I didn't do anything special in order to do so (idk perhaps it just "clicked" today or there was an update)
HOWEVER
I still had the same issue when it came to the dlcs, but then I just repaired the game, reloged and now dlcs are downloading as well, so we'll see how it goes
I also managed to install it all, I'm not sure what it was that made it work. But I selected the Deluxe Content to download first, which also downloaded the main game. then I tried to download all of the other DLCs individually, like I mentioned before. But the Trespasser and flames armor wouldn't download. So I just gave up. A couple of days later I tried downloading those DLCs again, and it worked fine. No idea why. It seems to be running ok, it crashed when I got to the large rift in the intro quest, but its been ok since.
The EA app really is the worst platform around. Origin wasn't much better, but it seemed to work better than this one. It seems EA as a whole are not really interested in fixing things.
Does anyone know this workaround? Or even better how to get in touch with EA_Sheppard?
@badmemoryboyI am not sure if this will help, but I can step by step say what order I did that finally worked last night for me. Originally, I was having the exact same issues as everyone else here.
1. I clicked "Manage Add-Ons" for the game in my library and downloaded JUST Jaws of Hakkon DLC. The DLC itself ultimately failed to download but the full base game did.
2. I clicked Jaws of Hakkon one more time and this time it downloaded with no issue.
3. I downloaded Descent and the Trespasser (one at a time!)
4. I attempted to download the Black Emporium, but it failed so I moved on to the Deluxe Content, Flames of the Inquisition (Weapons), Flames of the Inquisition (Armor), Spoils of the Qunari, Spoils of the Avvar, Flames of the Inquisition (Mount), and then finally the Black Emporium which downloaded with no issue (again, one at a time!)
I am under no illusion that this is like "the perfect order," but the individual downloads method ended up working for me. My best guess is that if one fails, just move on to another and try downloading that one by itself and come back to the one that failed later like I did with the Black Emporium DLC. Best of luck to you! I also had EA running as administrator if that makes any difference whatsoever.
