Its highly unlikely to happen but I'd love for the inquisitor to have the option of looking at the incoming Bad Thing and go "Nope. Nopenopenope. Uh... you take this one. I'll just be over here, behind this tree. Observing. Important Inqusitor reasons, honest!"

Since it's a slow news day (week/WEEKS/SO MANY WEEKS) on the Solas front, throwing this out there because WOW, these graphics.

This game is absolutely beautiful. I'm so excited to explore it I just...*insert helplessly frustrated sounds here*
And to keep this vaguely topical, I really can't wait to see our Solas in the finished game, walking and talking. The faces are so much more detailed and expressive! It's going to be amazing. After I play with the character creator for an hour or so, of course. ![]()

Anyone have ideas for characters yet? I'm thinking starting off with a Dwarven Artificer Rogue. It might be my love of Home Alone and the game Evil Genius but there's something satisfying about watching a bunch of mooks bumble through a room filled with traps:
Solas: Inquisitor, Artificer Dagna wanted to let you know those traps you requested are ready.
Inquisitor: Oh, thank you...Solas, why are you stuck to the ceiling?
Solas: (suspended from the ceiling by a big glob of tar) Oh, no reason. I'm just hanging around.

By "or so" do you mean time spent playing the game trying to accept that your character doesn't look as bad as it clearly does, before going back to the CC for another hour? That's how I play. ![]()

I think that Therinfal Redoubt was in the trailer, that pillar in the back of the top image is shown in the scene where Cassandra stabbed the table:

I have planned my first 4 playthroughs so far.My first will be a female dalish mage although I don't know yet which specialization she'll use,my second is a male human rogue(archer),my third a female qunari rogue and my fourth a dwarven warrior inspired by Thorin Oakenshield...

Lol,This is one of the reasons I spend over an hour in the CC...If we're having more customization options this time,I think I'll spend even more time in it.
To be honest,I'd love to see more options like scars,heterochromia and longer hair,more sliders would also be nice...

I'm always so quick in the CC. I don't think I've ever spent more than 15 min making a character. Personally, I think if they wind up not looking perfect or like how I pictured them it just adds individuality. Most of the time my characters wind up with a nose that's too small for their face, or a jaw that's too wide, but by the end of the game I find those sorts of features to be endearing because I associate them with that particular character.
On the topic of Solas, I'm really looking forward to seeing him during E3. What do you think they'll show? Will we hear him speak? Will they announce if he's a LI?

Wow. Okay. Sorry for being rude and not responding to things. I've been off in la la land.
Anyway, I've been working on a Sera piece and upon trying to figure out her eye color I noticed her eyes are an un-natural color. Looks like some magenta-violet I'm not sure something-something. Given, I can't trust the accuracy of this due to 1) her concept has obviously changed and 2) the lighting could have her eyes look a different color than they actually are. However, if we wish to consider it accurate, it would support what lspan (I believe) brought to our attention about Duncan stating that he was accustomed to elves having un-natural eye colors and looking alien. (Wow that was a mouthful) Therefore Solas possibly being a 'normal' elf wouldn't be too far-fetched, especially if Sera has violet eyes as well.
Something to ponder.
Also, those fade monsters. No no noooooo. I started playing Bound by Flame (Now I finally get that Mathras picture someone posted some time ago. BUT MATHRAS BE COOL MANG!) and the monsters I find in dark caves I'm just like 'big freaking nope!' I guess what I'm trying to get at is that I'm not going to be a happy camper. While they're not exactly the same, their textures look similar. All kinda latex-y and shiny and yeah. Long story short, if I have to run around with a tiny little light circle, only able to see monsters until you're right next to them, there's going to be a lot of 'nope nope nope' moments. Though, I'll admit, it would be really amusing. Just not as amusing as when I ran all the way into a town to escape a mammoth in Skyrim.

Nice! I'm going to go with an elven rogue, though I'm not sure whether she'll be an Assassin or Tempest. Need to get a look at the skill trees to make a final decision. I really want to play a Knight Enchanter as well (my favorite Origins playthrough was as an elven Arcane Warrior), but I love sneaking and stabbing. Besides, the characters I'm most interested in are all mages, so I need to be able to stuff as many of them as possible into my usual party. ![]()

That is, in fact, EXACTLY what I meant.
I hate when you think you've got it perfect, and then you see it walking around and discover that you'll either have to start again or learn to live with a certain amount of derp face for the entirety of the game (which I've never been able to do). I'm really excited to see all the new customization options, even though I can't even decide on hair color in a reasonable amount of time. I'm going to be at it awhile.

Inquisitor: I'm so sorry Solas.
Solas: It's alright my dear, I think my pants are holding my legs together.
