Thanks for trying....but this does not work. I have done three complete uninstall/installs from Origin even going to far as to get another activation code. Absolute no go, no how, no way. It does not launch period. And this is far from frustrating....it's just plain bad business.

Not sure what you're asking/telling us here, lynmcd523...

This thread is about the DA2 Launcher and the fact that it stopped being a part of the EA/Origin install at all, and was removed from a player's current install, as a result of an EA/Origin update near the end of August.

There are ways to either a) Restore the Launcher (see my edited post above), or b) Start the game without the Lancher (see my edited post above.)

But you seem to have an entirely different problem in that you have NEVER had a working install of the game.

If that's the case, there are lots of other threads about how to get DA2 installed/working. But this isn't one of them. 😕mileyfrustrated:

Ok Ok after 3 days of tries i have finally made it to work...
Try this go to the Dragonage2config tool inside the game directory run it and go to video settings and change the directx to 9 (if it is 11 that was for me).
Now you should be able to play the game
Hope it helped

    @sicksithjuggy; You don't say what's going on with your game, so it's impossible to provide any specific assistance.
