Game will not start stuck on loop loading between steam and EA Luncher
So during a quick load my game went in to infinite loading, so like a normal person i use alt+F4 to close the game and restart it.

But no, the first few try's i got a error saying the game fail to sync my save, i chose to run the game any way well that did not work i`m stuck a infinite loop between lunching the game from Steam and EA app the thing just is trying to lunch the game over and over and over again i can see the app opening up then closing it dose this to infinity.

I have try to uninstall the game uninstall EA launcher clear the cache deleted the save folder even uninstalled everything (Game, launcher) and rebooted my PC but nothing will work the game will not start its stuck in a trying to lunch loop between Steam and EA Launcher,

And NO i have no mods install i never used any mods or any 3`th party software.

there is nothing to say, except welcome to the club. Working solution is to create new windows (i suppose you use it) account (local or online), sign up into it and then start the game using it

they recently united different threads with launch problem on answers.ea, maybe there is a new solution posted (wanted to play this game, so checking ea forum once in a while)

I found that disabling the antivirus (I have Avast) solves this issue. Try it

Got bit defender and worked fine for the 80+ hour i used it until this crash / save sync problem, i`m 10000% sure is some EA cloud sync problem only EA would make something as bad as save sync to interfere with the game lunch.
At this point i`m just going to pirate the game just to be able to play it, god i hate EA.

Dude after days of trying so many things installing it on my laptop working for 3 days then again this happen i have finally manage to find the problem.
Uninstall the new EA app and use the old Origin one.
This is what happens the new EA app gives you a error when you try to lunch the game "Game already running" but its not its not even in the task manager so ofc steam app tells the EA to lunch the game again but EA things the game is already running, this keeps going on an infinite loop, the problem is this new stupid EA app dose not show you this error when you are trying to lunch with steam this only shows if you buy and use the thing on the EA app.
I installed the old origin and now it works just fine.

Hey guys, something finally worked for me. I unistalled Steam and EA App, but not just by removing through normal means, I deleted all files in %appdata% AND remove all data from Registry (local machine and software). And then I downloaded again Steam, the game and then EA App and it lauched.

So, you went way overkill on that. The main issue is the EA client took over from the Origin client. And, it has a different directory structure along with different Windows Registry key settings than Origin did. So, all these games were meant to run using Origin. And, the registry paths can end up being wrong for people who have an older installation of Windows, the clients, and the games. Doing an uninstall / re-install later of a game can result in the wrong path data. Really, all you prolly needed to do was run a Registry Cleaner and clear the old registry data. But, since the EA client is problematic... it may of needed a removal of the game and ea client prior to the reg cleaning and then a fresh install of EA client and game. That's been the case for many with the EA games. In conclusion, you most likely didn't need to uninstall steam at the very least.

I have nearly 140 hours in this game and I am suddenly getting this exact issue. I've tried uninstalling 3 times, completely deleting all my inquisition files, and I even installed the EA launcher and had it repair after reinstalling it twice. Please if someone has a fix let me know.

Took me a couple of days of trying and then a simple solution for why my EA games were not launching presented itself. In my case I had steam starting in Family view. If family view is on, almost all of my EA games will not start in Steam or from the EA app. Once I turned off family view all my EA games will start normally using either Steam or the EA app. Hope this may help someone.

Weirdly, I have this issue also. But what works for me is to terminate any existing EA app processes, then manually run the EA app - once I've logged in, I can then run it from steam.
