I just had this problem start today as well. I play on two different computers so this really hinders my gaming experience.
There WAS no "Cloud" when DA: O was released, so it only used that storage at second hand, through the Origin System. Origin being a work in progress, under constant change, has to mean that depending on a newer technology with a four year old game is problematic in extreme.
But Origin did have cloud storage running for DA: O for at least a while, and it worked fine. All the cloud storage does is upload and download save game files. I'm not sure why it being an older game would have any effect on that since it's not like it really has to interface with the game. Just move some files around. Mass Effect 1 is even older than DA: O and the cloud storage for that game is still there.
