Community Manager@NotAGamergirlzzZ Thank you for the information that helps. So I've done this myself as I have two drives. One for the OS and one for games.
So, this will be a bit annoying and I apologize.
What I need you to do is uninstall everything related to the game.
When you go back into Steam, change the folder location so that it matches the drive that Steam is on.
When you install the DLC from the site, do the same thing. They need to be on the same drive for testing purposes.
I've been dealing with this error since release. One of the most common reasons is the registry for each drive does not recognize you own it, or it is installed. Its a huge pain I know and I am reinstalling it myself now through Steam just to make sure I don't get the same error but I am installing it on the same drive.
Once that is done let me know if it works or if you get the same error.
This problem could theoretically be caused by mods, so I would recommend a completely clean installation.
Your Saves Files are in "Dokumente\Bioware\Dragon Age 2\Characters", you can back up the "Characters" folder and put it back at any time after the problem is solved.
(Cloud storage is never a sufficient backup method anyway.)
You should be able to play from the point you are at now without a problem if you install the same DLC and Mods you used as the safe was made.
New DLCs will not interfere with that at all.
If you cannot install all mods, it should still be possible to force the game to load, but that depends on the mod.
