Kind of obnoxious of me not to get back sooner. My apologies.
It... hasn't really changed. I have the game both through Origins and through Steam. Both behave the same way, even with new games.
Not sure if there's anything else to do with it.

so, if anything, it's worse now. After
Spoilerdefeating the desire demon in the fade (at redcliffe)there's immediately a transition, and it crashes every single time. I can't make any progress. Tried a few times yesterday. A few times today. Restarting computer, run without anything else running, earlier save points. No dice.

@Sailor_Porg Do you run any mods.
If you into Microsoft event viewer do you see anything crashing at the same item the game does?

@EA_Atic No mods. Only the DLC available in the Origin application. I currently have the console enabled, but this started before I did that. I also have the command line to run using only one core like discussed above. So, tags to the exe, but no mods.
I just had a play session that lasted about an hour, with a few game saves/loads along the way, and a few times I switched windows. I felt like these actions are often potential destabilizers to some applications. They did not seem to matter much, though. The crash happened shortly after an area transition as a plot-important dialog started.
Most of the earlier crashes, if not all, have happened at area transitions, and this is the first I remember that wasn't strictly an area change. (I don't know how it's programmed, but I reckon there are some similar processes at work for the beginnings of these conversations and for loading an area.

I wish I could remember exactly how I did it, but when I installed Origins through Steam a few weeks ago, I had to install a "LAA" (large address aware) or "4GB patch" to get the game not to crash all the time. I think Googling that will help you--I found a thread from 2014 in Steam's forums that detailed the steps needed.

Thanks, I'll try that.
