The Veilguard explained why they abandoned the Keep system, carrying over choices from previous installments in the series, and how they approach satisfying players and inspiring by DLC.

Bellara can be found relatively early in Dragon Age: The Veilguard when you first return to the Arlathan Forrest after stopping Solas’ ritual. You’ll first meet her Veil Jumper companions Strife and Irelin who are looking for her after she wandered off.

This isn't something lost on Corinne Busche, game director of The Veilguard, who said that despite all those considerations, the team has been laser-focused on making the most authentic, exciting, and honest Dragon Age game it can. And that's exactly what it felt like to me after playing for several hours.
