Definitely us.

 

There's always that "Argh the deadline is approaching" anxiety as well as that fear of releasing "into the wild" and the anxiousness of "I hope they like it!!"  Happened for me on both Dragon Age games.  It's probably happening a bit less for me on DAI, likely due to a degree of experience.

On that note, I appreciate what you folks at Bioware are doing and wish you all the best, concerning meeting your deadlines and keeping a level head. We on the consumer side of of the fence can get so caught up in character information and release dates that we forget about how those on the production side are fairing. So it's always good to have an individual, such as yourself, chime in occasionally and put things in perspective. 

In any event, thank you. And I suppose I'll be in the same boat as the rest of the people here, anticipating what news may come from E3!

That.... Is incredibly depressing. 

It's not so bad. Rather than track it by weeks, I am thinking of it as seasons. And really, right now I am in the middle of the activity crunch as school ends in a month, followed by having to entertain the kids all summer. And that always flies by fast. September is when school starts and super busy as we get used to new schedules and activities. So the first of October will be a perfect time for a Bioware break from reality!

I can definitely understand where that anxiety would come from. But we'll like it! As much as we like to complain on these forums....well, we're still here, aren't we?

 

And being on these forums while waiting for a game offers a new perspective, especially when you all occasionally share with us the stresses of making these games. Now I'll play and look at a landscape or a level and say "wow, it must have taken forever to make that! That's awesome!" That's something I'd never done before when playing previous games. It's like watching a movie and knowing nothing about what goes into creating the script and making each scene come alive - you don't tend to think much about it at all. But when you do know, it takes on another level of meaning.

 

But Solas! Yes, this is the Solas thread! I'm sure we'll like Solas too. Though I'm more than a little biased at this point

Do you need candied hot peppers? They're too hot and I'm not sure I can eat them all.

Ooooh you made them? Are they good? I've never had one but they definitely sound interesting!

 

Also, don't feed the devs hot things! They'll burn their mouths out and then they won't be able to concentrate on the game 

[Ricochetmatt]

I prefer the term "terrifying" >.>

 

Hey, at this point I figure if you guys don't pull a DA:II on us, you've got nothing to worry about. Not that DA:II was a bad game - cause it wasn't. But you know.... 

[Ispan]

omg omg omg

 

His face makes it look like he's saying "Are you serious?" or less politely "Are you an idiot?"  I love incredulous Solas

 

Edit: And Vivienne looks like a goddess, wow.

 

Edit edit: And I want to cuddle the hell out of Solas' fur wrap

 

omg ok I'm going to stop now.  Right now.

Eeee hehehe I'm just making weird noises at this point.  Felicia Day is so freaking cute, but I'm sort of hating her right now

I love her but she's horrible when it comes to teasing about info. Well she signed an NDA and I guess you can't blame her...

 

But I think it's important to point out that Solas doesn't look anything like Nic Cage in that picture, is pretty hot, and definitely has eyebrows.

Yeah there's Allan's way of teasing us about info, and then there's what Felicia did.

 

Totally agree.  No Nic Cage, traditionally hot (seriously baldness should be a non-issue when you look like this), and I'm definitely feeling the Scotch Bonnets here.  I personally think the spice will come before the sweet, regarding yesterday's discussion.

 

Oh, and I'm pretty sure Varric is standing on a step stool.  I lol'd.

[RynJ]

I saw his face and burst out laughing omg. He looks like he smelled something bad. The Inquisitor's plan must really suck!

 

And then....and then I saw Iron Bull's face and I just lost it omg. Why is his eye so wide? I'm laughing so hard!

 

Also, Solas looks so magey now. Something about that fur wrap makes him look more dignified. 

 

The more I think about it, the more I think the Inquisitor is making a terrible plan. Cassandra is looking down like "I don't know him". Vivienne is making an "are you serious right now? Stop, just stop" face.  Iron Bull is averting his eyes, Solas is all out sneering at the map and Varric is like "okay, okay, we can still fix this. No worries".

I said in the twitter thread that Varric is hanging by his coat from a nail in the wall.

 

But Solas does look hot and umm.. I forgot what I was going to say. Oh! I'm not sure if it's a result of custom armours or what have you, but Solas has some Orlesian-looking patterns on his bracers.

 

Edit: Or maybe they're gloves. I don't know.

I think Cass and the Inquisitor are the only ones really focused on the plan.  Vivi looks like she's wishing she was somewhere else and Varric is obviously thinking "Maybe if I look really serious no one will notice I use a booster seat."

 

Edit: @Banx I see it too, it looks like they have a fleur de lis pattern.  Pretty

I WANT TO KNOW IF SOLAS IS AN LI DARN IT!!!!!!!!!

 

*sigh*

 

 

Anyways Solas looks so HOT and smirky in that pic! Mmmmm that smirk!

I love how unimpressed Vivi looks.

I admit I didn't even notice IB at first, and then I was a little startled to see him looming over everyone there! That warrior is good at stealth, apparently.

 

I really hope Solas' expression here is intentional, because it speaks of a really fun personality to have in the group. I'd love a really dry, sarcastic character like that.

omg he is totally hanging from the wall.  LOL.

Cannot unsee, I'm crying.

 

Also, can I just say that I'm getting WAY too excited whenever I see Solas? The first time I see him walking and talking I'm probably going to squeal out loud.

whoa! Solas seems much younger here! and...I know, I'm monotone. But he remind me again Sand. To me seems like he's making a sarcastic/venomous comment. Surely he isn't ok with something.

I think Solas will became that character that or you love him, or you vant to strangle him.

 

(just my idea or Cass seems much older here?  )

[Phooka12]

That smirk he's making just makes me believe even more he's going to have a snazzy Irish accent and personality.

You and me both!  Thank goodness we have a support group here   I'd liken my squeeing to... the sounds made when pre-teens meet Justin Bieber.  Solas is my Biebs.  I don't know if I spelled that right since I usually just call that kid Justice Beaver.

If I had photoshop skills, I'd be putting Justin Bieber hair on that closeup of Solas now.
