So I just went to check does games saves after finishing that DLC and it turns out, there is no save file.
Did Bioware said anything about this? Or will we yet again need to use DA Keep for import for next DA game?

There is no save because there is no continuing the game when you finish Trespasser. When there is a DA4, the keep will be used to import your world state.

Well that's annoying. Especially if Inquisitor will make an appearance, i.e. need to re-create him/her.

Two systems is more work than one. The multiple platforms is a key issue. I only have a PS3, I only have Inquisition on my computer. Also, there were soooo many bugs in the import save system. The Keep is massive improvement. Now I'm not locked to a platform for any of them.

The Keep is massive improvement. Now I'm not locked to a platform for any of them. Inquisition was the first time I had an import where nothing was amiss. Previously, I had multiple choices that did not carry over including a romance with Zevran which I believed was bugged for everybody because of a flag issue. I also believed that there were other choices with a familiar flag issue that could not be fixed.
So yeah, I also consider the Keep to be a massive improvement.

Especially if Inquisitor will make an appearance, i.e. need to re-create him/her.You'd likely have to do that even if the import system were still based on a save file if nothing else because the character creator would likely have content added or altered meaning you'd still end up with a character that looked different than it did in Inquisition.

Save file transfer was VERY buggy, that said editing save files to fix those bugs were less annoying than editing world states on the keep. Choosing variables in a list is way easier than internet navigating pics and online saving, not only because online but also because praticity > art. Speed over looks. They can shove the Keep.

Can't transfer save files from ps3 to xbone or 360 to ps4, Or pc to either of those or from them to pc. Save flags you'd have to wait for someone to make an editor. With the keep they can add more tiles at any time.

The Keep is a huge improvement to me, in part because I now have a PC that's worth a damn and I can look forward to playing DA4 on it instead of worrying over a buggy import on my PS4.
The only worry might be that the Keep will be shut down someday, but I'm not too concerned.
As to recreating the Inquisitor in game, I really don't mind. Hawke bothered me because I found it was pretty much impossible to make a Hawke that really looked like my DA2 Hawke, but since the next game will be in Frostbite as well, it will probably be easier.

Yeah, if they decide one day to shut down the Keep, I'd hope they'd have some kind of backup plan - eg. an app that could at least be used on the same platform to allow you to create world states offline. And as for importing your appearance from DAI, the CC may change significantly in the next game making any kind of import impossible...

I'm sure they will make offline app for DA Keep in future. Right now, it is a way to discourage piracy as anyone playing pirated DAI can only play with default world state.
