Mass Effect 3 is finally working.
Unfortunately it was resolved by activating my old Origin account and moving Mass Effect 3 back there where it actually can launch from. So I'm back to two accounts again. 😛
But at least I can watch the galaxy burn now.
@Holger1405 Thanks for all your help in this!
Glad you got a "solution" (even though not the ideal one and basically what you had before this headache)
It seems clearer and clearer that there is some persistent bug in how Origin handles ME3 merges/transfers to a new/alternate account. It would seem an obvious solution would be to instead of merge it, to just "rebuy" (with Origin/EA doing this for you at no cost) on the new account (while leaving the "original" copy on the original account). After all, it is a problem of their software. But they don't want to do that. And probably would say they are doing you a favor in offering the merge in the first place*. And who knows, that might not even work!
If you are game, next time it is on sale for ~$3, you might consider giving it a shot 😉
[* Note, as per that other thread, I did get the merge/transferred copy to eventually work]
