PC crash and restart while playing
I would like to share my experience with you guys. I am a big fan of the Dragon Age saga and I was so excited to play this game. Few months ago I bought a new pc with a 4070 super, way better than the GPU needed for the minimum requirements. Played several games smoothly before downloading and starting Dragon Age The Veilguard. After few hours of gameplay the pc started behaving crazy, with random crashes during the gameplay that completely shut down and automatically restart my pc, without any blu screen or anything at all (power kernel error, in the Event Viewer). Firstly I thought it was a pc hw/sw thing and tried hundred of attempts and workarounds but the problem persisted and the game was shutting down my pc as I said. The same started to happen with the other games I had on my pc, so I was pretty sure it was a GPU/PSU failure and I requested a return+refund of the pre-assembled PC. After that I bought another PC with an rtx 5070 this time (just arrived last week) and, after couple of days where I played regularly the game, the problem happened again this morning, with a completely different pc, brand new! BTW I have changed all external devices (mouse, keyboard, controller) to be sure those were not the cause of the issue. It was an immediate UNINSTALL THE GAME for me. Can't risk to burn another PC just to play this game. I am really sad and disappointed since I am a big fan and I am not allowed to play the game, I even have a EA PlayPro subscription because of it. Hope my experience will avoid to others the same amount of distress I had in these few weeks due to EA bad optimization or whatever we can call something like this.
