Yeah right Cerulion you just want to see Sparklar's sword of mercy lol and Cassandra awesomeness

 

Hehe there's truth in there.... But not Sparkler's sword of mercy, I need to see his eyes closely. I don't have the level to learn body anatomy so.... it's a story for later on

 

But you're right, the goal is actually to swoon at their awesomeness...    and practice this...

 

 

I passed yesterday evening swooning at those golden eyes... Something's still not right so maybe trying on another character might be a good idea, it's just that I don't have HQ screenshots. Thanks font for the Cullen screenshots!

 

EDIT: Anyway until Adela finish her works about correcting some anatomical mistake, there won't be Sparkler's Sword of mercy screenshots...

 

 

Anyway, please get well soon & don't die...

So I tried~ to recolor Cullen's robes into a nice solid black and his pauldrons into a posh salt-and-pepper, just to see what it would look like, and...

 

Well, the good news is that I've finally succeeded in getting rid of the flufflies, at last.

 

The bad news is that....

 

 

 

Science has gone too far.

 

I actually got to wondering if the fluffies don't help hide the fact that their mouths don't meet on the first kiss. Can you test it with that and see if it makes much of a difference?

 

This may not be a popular opinion, but I personally believe the lion mane collar is irretrievably intertwined with his character and removing it lessens him.  The parallels between Cullen and lion were deliberate design choices informed by his personal story which I found inspired, from his amber eyes to his lion helmet (which I wish we could have seen more of).  It signifies his transformation from boy in the tower to the man he is today and is referential of Greek myth's first labour of Hercules.  There is Cullen as caged lion in Kinloch Hold, Cullen as raging lion in his hatred of mages, Cullen as fierce lion, hungry and unrestrained. Without the collar, the lion symbolism is lost and he looks like every other armoured NPC.  He might as well be Alistair with a scar on his lip.  

 

Symbolism aside, it is also practical.  Skyhold is damn cold.  But, by all means, don't let this stop anyone from removing his fluffies.

 

While I can certainly appreciate this opinion, I have to add my voice to those that say it's just a mod and no one has to use it. I actually think his Templar-skirt/cloak is more representative of who Cullen is. Not a Templar, but still devoted enough to the faith to continue to wear it in a way that would make Dorian proud. If there was a way to remove the fluffies and keep the Templar bit, then I think that would be awesome. Except it would probably look kinda weird.

You could just stare into them for ages. *sigh*

That's Cullen for you!

 

Hi Eric, long time no see. How's the videos going? Shortbread?

[meanieweenie]

 

 

 

How funny would it be to zoom in and realize that you could see something crazy in the reflection of his eyeball? Like a nug humping the Inquisitor's leg or a secret code for you to download that damn unattainable flower helmet. 

 

Feel better, Ryriena!

That's actually fontofnothing's screenshot, guess that it's from the Wicked Grace scene. So... Maybe that's why he always looses the game, Josie just needs to see his eyes & all his cards are reflected there 

 

Sorry font, I can't find your original link so I re-upload your image.

I like the furries well enough to look at but I just hate what it seems to do to his posture in some of his scenes, I'd like the option to at least see what playing without them looked like (clipping etc). The "scientific" researchers in this thread are doing amazing things     

 

I was looking at some of the telemetry data that has been mined regarding hours played and High-dragons killed etc, Imagine if data had been gathered about the amount of woo breaks taken with Cullen. Not sure it would be a stat we would be proud of or very concerned about

Imagine it.....2.6million High Dragons killed   7.3million woo breaks taken   I can imagine a collective /headdesk from BW lol.

Well, to be fair, there are a limited number of high dragons. Woo breaks are infinite!    (Until you finish the main campaign at least. )

I still wonder though, whether they'll ever be able to get real stat of how many people romance each character. Now the achievement's only Beloved & Precious for ALL LI so... hmm... From the poll on BSN Solas & Cullen's still the 2 most favourite.

Say, do you have a few frontal shots of Cass & Dorian by chance?

I used to think this - til the dev's mentioned that the only reason why he had that helmet was because they couldn't fix his lip syncing in the trailers. Since then I kinda threw the "lion" parallel out the window. 

 

I wouldn't mind the fur ruff at all - if it was higher rez. It's just so friggen oogly in close-up screenshots, to the point where it can completely ruin them. 

[MelissaGT]

Does anyone have any good HQ screenshot of Cass & Dorian on front view? I need it for... scientific purpose

 

I don't have any of Cass, but here you go on Dorian:

 

 

 

Just click the images for larger size...

 

Have you thought of trying Alistair? I have some great close-ups of him. I can also PM you some super-high rez shots of Cullen I got recently. I posted them on Tumblr, but I didn't publicly share all the 4k sized originals.

Good idea for Alistair , I'll do that thanks.

Sure thing. At work now, but will test this later. Hopefully cannibal!Cullen eating the IQ's nose isn't too noticeable without the flufflies.

I have a wonder about how his animation behaves sans pauldrons in the Haven attack and the Arbor Wilds cinematics, too. His bamf-y sword upthrust looks like it's doing some weird stuff to his shoulders under the fluff... we shall see. (science!)

Damn my cold been sick for a few days and waiting on my new iPad 2 that is replacing my old one got it for 187.00. Awesome

Nice! The getting an IPad for 187 not the sick part.

So would anybody be able to enlighten me to what the heck this is about?

 

*edit*

 

Or not - since we all know Tumblr is the land of bad juju - but it seems like this actually happened on Twitter?

[Tishina]

Sephirona (being lazy and not going back to quote you, lol) - I think what you wrote was very well stated. While I think Cullen would be bothered by gossip because he's a private person, the fact he takes her out on a well-traveled and visible section of wall for that first kiss supports the idea he wants people to know they have a relationship. And frankly, he's old enough to understand that as soon as the relationship started, there would be a lot of gossip about a physical relationship, whether or not there really was one, and trying to hide that would not only make it worse, it would start rumors that one or the other was ashamed of the relationship. Knowing gossip (and courtiers are particularly good at inventing crap where nothing exists), the gossip would involve one of them actually being married already or something like that. Thedas doesn't seem to have religious prohibitions on relationships (the southern Chantry IS largely Orlesian.)

 

I saw the January 2015 PAX South Panel, too, but the fact remains, out of all the helmets they had to choose from, they chose that one.

 

 

I agree with you 100%.

However, the fact is, the writers did not have any parallel to Hercules in mind. I think your interpretation is fascinating; the problem is, you want everyone else to view it as essential to his character. It isn't.

 

I'm relieved to find out the lion heraldry attached to him was unintentional because it's so Orlesian, and he's Ferelden. It seems completely out of character for him. I wouldn't mind his coat since we know it's actually bear fur instead, except it's so poorly done that it looks completely plastic, like most of the hair in game. BW does many things well, but apparently their devs have some weird hair phobia...

Sorry, it just seems like this was something that actually happened with GE so I was really curious. If anybody knows what the heck it's about feel free to PM me rather than putting it here.

[Thane4Ever]

Actually in his own words if you talk to him  about the  potential gossip he will say that a )you can't avoid gossip in the barracks  b )  he rather people gossip than have to say nothing about the relationship. He might be a bit awkward around the Inquisitor in the early stages of their relationship, but he is not a shy man and can be quite cocky too (his chess game with Dorian attests to this)

I think what he meant was he'd rather have the recruits talk about SOMETHING rather than nothing, whether it's about your relationship or anything else. It gives them something to focus on, joke about, bond over (gossip) rather than thinking about dying.  At least that's how I've taken it every time I've had the convo with him.

 

My theory on the deves choosing that specific lion helm to cover up the bad lip sync - because theoretically they could have just used any helm - is that it was an unused unique helm design that was already rendered or mostly rendered for an Orlesian character, or someone else, and they decided to use that last minute with tweaks.
