I can answer your question:
You can't play Dragon Age: Inquisition because you can't seem to read the basic troubleshooting tips that are already provided for you. If you had checked the pinned topics at the top of this forum and read the one about Avast/AVG, then followed the instructions found there, I'll bet you'd be playing the game right now. (Although I recommend removing those worthless "free" products and getting a competent one.) And if not, and you'd read how to post a question and what information to provide when doing so, we'd know a lot more than "It won't run."
Between the two AV products that can't figure out the difference between a legitimate program and a virus, and people trying to run the game with rigs below minimum specs, (especially below min. GPU specs) 90+% of the "Endless black loading screen" or "It shuts down immediately" complaints are covered.
But since you can't be bothered to do the minimum to help yourself, I don't see why anyone else should be bothered to help you. I certainly won't.
I agree with your post and feelings, but the way you posted(IN MY OPINION) isn't the best way or most diplomatic way of posting. I fully understand the frustration with people asking for help, and not putting in the effort to allow us to help them, BUT a post such as yours, especially just after one so similar of mine, comes off as combative to me. In my opinion a combative post makes the chances of a constructive dialogue of issues less likely and hostile or defensive posts much more likely. I personally probably didn't post what I needed to say the best way, but if you truly wish to help people, diplomacy is a must on this or just about any other site.
Maybe I am reading your post all wrong, but it seems to follow your name, some attitude, and while accurate, I would hope to see a bit more diplomacy. If I am wrong, then I apologize.
