What edition of the game do you own?
Did you run the installer from the "Dragon Age II\bin_ship\" folder?

Steam shows it as "Ultimate Edition" but Steam Support said it is only registered as regular Dragon Age II.

I tried running from the bin_ship and various other subfolders but it always gives the same error.

I've seen people on reddit say that EA Support suggested they simply get friends to copy their DLC folders for them, so it's kinda starting to look like those files simply do not work and EA doesnt care eough to fix it :/

The "Ultimate Edition" is the only edition still sold afaik, and this edition includes all DLCs already.

When did you purchased the game?

Is Steam support not capable to re-registered it to a deluxe edition?

They probably do not work on the Digital or Steam edition.
