David Gaider@davidgaider: So evidently Solas looks like Nicolas Cage, now? Sort of like Carver was once clearly a moron and Merrill had enormous breasts, I assume.

I just saw a new in-game render for one of my characters that made me involuntarily squee. I am embarrassed, yet still pleased. #DAI
omigawd. omigawd! *Inquisitor runs after Alistair* Don't you remember me, Baby? Don't you remember? It's me!
Lol! at that pic of Valentine. Like the Cat that ate the Canary. Meowzaa!
Are you reading my mind or something???

If it makes Gaider squee, then it must look damn good.
And when His Word
Reached the mortal plain
All were at ease
Or.... at least should be, because that last part is a lie. No Dragon Age fan is at ease, ever.
But thank you, Master Gaider.
So let it be.
Couldn't it be possible that he lends his voice to a different character?
You have no honor!
I cannot handle this much excitement. I need this game.

So, that train is my fault, I think.
And I kinda feel bad. Not about the comparison, because I still stand by the belief that the angle/shadowing on that one screenshot has a resemblance and that it's just funny as all get-out, but I do feel badly if it rankled David. Not at all my intention. I'd never judge a game or character pre-release and most here know by now that my love and respect for BioWare and its awesome employees runs very, very deep for immensely personal reasons.
I just thought it was a really funny coincidence based on that one screenshot, and thought it would be funny to poke fun. You know, since we don't have much else to do but sit and wait very impatiently for DA:I.
I'm sorry, David. Laugh, please? It's a funny... just wanted to make a funny. ![]()

Well it's not like we've gotten a full, clear shot of his face yet. We could only judge from a far away shot and a strange angle, and from that angle he DID kind of look like Nicolas Cage. He wants us to really know what Solas looks like, he'll have to show us. Preferably soon ![]()
Hey, if David associates Cage negatively that's his prerogative. Me, I'll always fondly remember him for Adaptation.
I would have thought looking like Nicholas Cage was a compliment.
Certainly wasn't done with any ill intent. Just thought it was funny!
I have zero negative connotations in regards to Nicholas Cage, so... ![]()
Gross. Not the Nick Cage part but the sucking up.
I think that Gaider's point is that people are quick to judge a character based on a early/unclean/strange Shot , not that comparing Solas to Cage was an insult.
Honestly, a little surprised he seems unhappy about the Cage comparison when people were totally making waaaaaaaaaay worse judgements about Solas due only to his baldness.
That's something I'd compare to the "Carver is a derp" movement and the "Merrill boobies" movement.
I'm actually more interested in Solas now simply because of the resemblance screenshot and the fact that it made me smile/chuckle in a good way. Prior to that, I was really rather neutral to him because we know nothing of him right now.

Oh, I don't know him but his tweets certainly make me wanna hug him. I hope he's having fun under that thick layer of stress.
Also, since when is Carver not a moron? ![]()
Kidding, kidding, I actually like that kid.
Also given the poor context around the poor Solas, It wouldn't be difficult for a writer who doesn't lurk every second on the forum, and doesn't live here, ( which could explain the lack of understanding ) to not see it necessarily as a compliment.

yeeeaahhh, i think David will be okay. no worries, Love.
hey now!
Gross. Not the Nick Cage part but the sucking up.
So, seeing that someone may have taken a joke of mine in a negative way... and me apologizing if said joke made them unhappy... is sucking up now?
Okay.
I have zero problems being called a suck-up for being polite, kind, and speaking truthfully from the heart.
I'll not make apologies for that.

Don't worry too much, I'm sure if Gaider was angry you'd be a pile of ash by now. Chin up! ![]()
