DA:O Content not showing up in new playthrough

started a new dragon age origins playthrough, and i notice that

i have to unlock all specializations again,

and that the battledress of the provocateur and reapers cudgel aint there either, 

I got everything unlocked in previous playthroughs.

It used to show up in the past 😎.

Does this have something to do with the fact that the servers are shut down?

ps: in the past i used the origin client, and now the ea client since the origin  one

aint there anymore.

    @pukingdog Hey, the "servers" aren't closed down. That error you get is to a social site that no longer exists. The game servers still run fine.

    As for content, have you reinstalled the game and DLC you have, or is this something you have had installed for a while?

    @pukingdog Hey, confirmed something with the team. The server message errors you see in the game have no bearing on content, save, the Keep, etc.

    So background on this one.  When DAO was released, it was released pre-Origin so when you installed Origin, your Bioware ID (like your EA ID) linked to Origin (Your EA account now)

    The game would connect to social.bioware.com as well as a character data site for a social aspect part of the game.

    Neither of those exists anymore. So, to remove those server messages, we would have to basically recode the entire game to get that removed. If you are playing through the EA app, all content is now free and should be accessible when downloading through the EA app.

    If content is not showing up, it comes down to a sync issue or download issue.
