Having the same problem, weird thing is during the Steam sale the game had no problems starting up and running at all but now that the sale is over it's completely refusing to run at all, almost as if it would immediately close itself for no reason when I'm trying to play the game.
And yes I already trying verifying the game before attempting to boot it up again, only no progress has been made whatsoever.
If it matters at all I had a similar issue way back when Burnout Paradise Remastered was only available on Origin, the game wouldn't launch until I installed the beta version of Origin which doesn't make sense.
8:09 AM: I cannot believe the solution is just enabling the beta/technical preview version of Origin (again).
To make a long story very short for this solution, if you come across a game from EA that refuses to run including your own Steam copy, what you may need to do is open Origin > Application Settings > Client update, and then enable "Participate in Origin technical previews" to get your games working normally again, however this may or may not end up solving your own problem to which if it does not it may be related to something else going on with your system.
I hope this works for anyone else who's been wanting to play their game/s again because I've been wanting to re-create the blue Testarossa from Crusin USA into NFS Heat.
@Goivannii I've tried about everything I can possibly think of to fix this problem. If I click on steam to start NFS heat or even origin, the application will not open. When I open from steam it loads origin but then closes it completely. As opposed to opening on origin to where it acts as if it will open but the origin window closes and then it refreshes itself back to the main screen of origin.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

- @iLarzy Not much I can do from here unfortunately, as my game also started not launching unless I opted out of the beta version of Origin which doesn't make sense, at this point if rebooting the computer doesn't work then either running the default or beta version of Origin should get the game to launch, I don't know why this is the case but I'm happy to be able to play the game when I can.
