    If you linked your steam account before, you log in to your EA on the browser by steam account and it requires you to change the password, you will type your EA ID linked to steam and reset the password. Hope it will fix it for you

THIS IS THE ANSWER! THANK YOU!!!!

Now, why on earth they don't just say this is what needs to be done on the error screen is beyond me. I literally was playing something early this morning, then 7 hours later I couldn't launch from Steam. Empty cache, tried closing the ea background app, restart pc. Nope, needed to update pasword for some reason. 

Anyway, thank you so much!

        I have tried to link my steam account to ea account about 10 times now. I try to log into ea launcher via my steam credentials. It opens the steam wesbite and I click allow to link EA. Then it prompts me to change my password. When I click to change password it says it sent my an email. I click "back to log in" it gives me an error and says "too many redirects try clearing cookies". I try clearing cookies and get the same thing. But I still get the email to change my password. So I change my password, for the 11th time. Go back to steam to try to link my ea, same thing happens, prompts me to change my password. Im stuck in a vicious loop.
