  Thanks for the posts. I was able to download and play without issue on the EA app, which will make this trickier to lock down, but I think it might be relared to game version.
  
  Do you recall when/where you acquired the game in the first place. Are you using the old standard edition or the newer Ultimate Edition?
  
  Thanks.

    Hi @EA_David
    My DA:O is a physical standard copy from 12 years ago more or less. One that came with 2 CD-Roms and the Stone Prisoner DLC. I remember transferring that copy with the serial number to Origin. Where I bought the rest of DLC.
    I uninstalled EA app, and installed again Origin, and the game is working fine through Origin app.
    What I'm worried about is that if in the future the old app is gonna be discontinued, I want to have access for what I paid for.
    Hopefully there would be a fix for this old versions. Or maybe with our serial numbers, we could have access to a newer version that works with the new App.
    
    Thanks!.
