Solved

Origin Cloud Deleted my local saves!

Basicly I had a save files about 15-16 hours into Dragon Age: Inquisition and yesterday they failed to sync to the cloud but were saved to my PC, but today cloud decides since it only has save files ...

I have found that turning off cloud saves on ORIGIN and installing Game Saves Manager and attaching it to Google Drive (or whatever cloud service you like to use) with the "sync & link" option is the best way to go with all game saves. Including Steam, Battlenet, Uplay, Origin, GOG, ect. I only turn off the cloud saves on Origin because their cloud likes to headbutt against Game Saves Manager because their cloud is soooo bad. It's a relatively painless process and it will automatically backup any game saves you have on any platform... even the ones that Steam doesn't have on Steam Cloud... it's pretty awesome because it saves all game saves to wherever you want on your computer and also saves a copy of everything onto Google Drive (or whatever cloud service it is you like to use) in case you have an HDD failure.

This worked for me:

If you want to restore your last local save:
Go to your Game Library in Origin.
Right-click on your game.
Click Game Properties.
Click Cloud Saves.
Click Restore Save.
You’ll get a message that starts with “You are now reverting to a locally stored save file…”
Click OK and you should be able to play from your last local save.
