Eriseh.... What I did with a newer Macbook Pro... kept it Yosemite and went from 10.10.3 to 10.10.5. Updated anything at the App Store that looked even slightly important in any way (general security issues related to Pages, Numbers, Keynote, etc, etc.) restarted the computer a half dozen times until the updated OS reboot seemed to normalize, got on the App Store and went to the Purchased Tab up top, reloaded the game (twice) after deleting off the computer (twice), then the "OPEN" button option was on the right. I simply clicked on that and it loaded. Clicking on the icons on my system still doesn't work and continues to give an error message. Doesn't make a lot of sense but that's exactly what happened for me. Hope it helps... if not you can call Apple Support. Actually being able to get someone on the phone is nice and they deal with App Store and I Tunes issues quite a bit they said.

For me, I'm in the Purchases tab and have the list of programs I've purchased underneath. To the right all the action buttons say "OPEN" "INSTALL" or "DOWNLOAD" Not sure why there's variance here.

First, thanks for checking on this issue. Second, I've restarted the computer repeatedly. Third, after trashing the old file and reloading the new file (for the second time) I AM NOW ABLE TO ACCESS THE GAME ONLY WHEN I HIT "OPEN" at the the Apple Store. The icon in my Applications folder, despite being reloaded and brand new, DOES NOT allow me access and gives me the same error message as before. The icon on my computer is not a desktop hyperlink, it's the icon that appears only after the reload is complete. So, I'm about to start playing again, I think, but odd that I can only do so when getting online at the Apple Store and hitting "OPEN" with the game under Purchases. By the way, I hope this might be some sort of help to the other folks dealing with this exact same issue. Any other suggestions? Thanks

I have the EXACT same issue as of yesterday. I didn't change the operating system, no new updates, just playing the game on Macbook Pro OS Yosemite 10.10.3 for a week. Then yesterday after playing for over an hour, went back to reload and got the same error message as above.... "Pillars of Eternity if damaged..." I also decided to take the hit, delete the file and reload the program. I also upgraded my OS to Yosemite 10.10.5 and nothing has changed. The game remains unable to open. I've never seen this before, ever. What's the story folks?
