Literally the exact problem I've described here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Dragon-Age-Inquisition/Xbox-Game-Pass-for-PC-DA-I-says-I-m-missing-DLC-I-definitely/td-p/10788355

EA has not fixed it, and probably never will. HOWEVER some players and I have discovered a fix that by using an older version of the ProfileOptions file located in

%userprofile%\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age Inquisition\Save

your saves will load again

I have a copy of the file, and I'm in the EA Gaming Discord if you want to get in touch with me.

Managed to find that post and file in the other thread, can confirm it fixes the issue but locks you out of Multiplayer and Dragon Keep. Works fine if you are just playing the campaign, as I am.

  Fair enough @EdgeUK. Def did not test that. Honestly had no interest in MP (not why I play DA games). For sure backup that file before you replace it in case EA ever fix this (lol).

    I'm pretty sure it's all because a flaw in the EA Desktop app. And support doesn't know what they are talking about because there's no communication between them and EA Desktop devs. -_-
    
    When a game asks Origin/EA Desktop which DLCs you own it usually sends a "group". And Origin/EA Desktop is supposed to return just the DLCs in that group. And EA Desktop just dumps everything you own. -_-
    
    I have confirmed this is an issue with Need For Speed: Most wanted and probably the same happens with The Sims 3. And this thread sounds like the same stuff too.
