Error loading save

Same problem here. Happened twice. The first time it happened i was able to play again after a few things (reinstall driver, reboot, trying offline mode and a few retries). After I finished chapter 5, i made a manual save - just in case - and now the issue returned.

Also tried lots of different sets of options, and nothing worked out. Settings from low to ultra.

amd + nvidia + ea 

Same here. Have been trying everything people are saying. I got it to run last night, have official saves too and pbbt, "load error". No ammount of file verification, dxdiag, computer restart, driver upgrades have worked.

Hey guys i am saving always on the lighthouse, it seems to have solved the issue for me, the appearance goes to default , but just use the mirror and it will come back to your appearance.

Just adding my complaint here as well. I even started a whole new game, since my character suddenly lost her hair and looked NOTHING like I created her. I even made a point to play the game continuously for a few hours, not letting my computer sleep, etc., hoping maybe that would help. Then suddenly out of nowhere my character looks completely different, and I wake up this morning I am getting the same load error from the first game I tried. This is frustrating. I can't play the game all in one go with no sleep.

I’m having the same issue. When I try and run the save a few times, it’ll eventually work, but takes forever. My external hard drive is hdd but still has plenty of free space, so I’d rather not spend $30+ on a new ssd drive for this one game just to potentially have the same problem.

I have 22 hours in the game, and I can’t load any of my saves. I’ve tried all the methods mentioned before, but I can’t load the game. I paid for a game I can’t even play, and we don’t get a fix for it??? We’ve known for days that this issue is affecting tons of people, yet there’s no official workaround or solution. It’s frustrating. 

Same problem here... 

I really dont understand why they dont resolve this **bleep**! 

I’m also having this issue. My game crashed after a fight, and every time I try to reload it, I get the same error message. I’ve verified the game files, I’ve loaded from an earlier manual save, nothing’s worked. It did allow me to load into the save that’s generated immediately after character creation, before the cutscene with Varric. However, when I loaded into that, it was the preset Rook without any of my customizations. When I try to load one of my other saves, I start getting the same error again. I’m guessing there’s some issue with loading in my custom choices for Rook, and it’s basically corrupted my entire save file. I’m also on PC, playing through Steam.

I think the issue might be related to EA Live Services. I disconnected from the internet as a last resort, and it fixed the loading problem. My character's hair is now bugged, but if that's the only issue, I'll take it.

same issue.
