Okay, so I had the same problem, and I came to a solution, but it's a little janky. You need to go here [Link removed, potential Terms of Service violation - Admin.] which is a DAI save editor, and download the .rar file. Extract it, then boot up DAI and create a brand new save. Get through the intro stuff to the first autosave, then close the game. Next, open up the DAI save editor, and import the save you were playing originally before this issue came up (DAI save data should be located at C:\Users\User\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age Inquisition\Save) (the second User will be your PC profile name, say jamesd or whatever). Then, change absolutely nothing in the information that pops up in the DAI save editor. Instead, immediately save the information that pops up to that same folder, and make the name of the item you are saving the exact same name as the file you created at the start of this process. Your computer will ask if you want to overwrite it, and you should say yes. Then, once it has saved, boot up DAI and go to the new character profile that was made when you restarted the game. Load that save, and it should import all the data from your dead save and allow you to continue playing as normal. Whenever you play, you will have to go through the new character name, but it should be your save.
@Fibonci ea support deleted your link, can you dm me on discord or maybe make a video tutorial you describe it really weirdly
