Solas' apparent lack of a hat slot has bothered me for a while.  If only because he may lose out on the equipment stats.  I've wondered if he might have something in the place of a hat slot, since I've heard something similar about Qunari characters having something in place of hats.

 

I'm sure he has something to make up for it if he doesn't have hats.  I can't imagine they'd leave a companion at a disadvantage like that.

 

I hope he has hoods.

Badass looking hoods. >_> ♥

 

I would be okay with this.  Or hoods that have holes for his ears.

The tarot card kinda made me want him to have hoods, it's so pretty.  But I don't really want to cover his head that much.  I've grown attached to his bald head, haha.  But I do hope there's something to make up for that equipment slot, I don't want him to miss out on bonuses.

 

I suppose time will tell...  

[dragondreamer]

That's what the toggle's for

 

But I hear you can't use it on individual characters, and for the first time...I don't want to turn off hats on everyone else.

-hugs all my Solas fan friends-  I thought I'd drop by and remind you I adore you.

 

Anyway, GUYS, Solas and the Quizzy in the trailer?

AM I RITE?

 

I was like aww. Solas looks like he's going to be so supportive

[Dr. Doctor]

It's sad that we didn't get any banter in the new demo, but more to look forward to I guess
Mike also said that he has a Team consisting of Cass, Sera and Solas, and that not all of them get along
We know that Cass and Solas apparently get on well, so maybe Cass and Sera are quarreling and he's caught in the middle
Or maybe he doesn't get along with Sera himself?

Sera is pretty opinionated to put it mildly. She has her thoughts on who's good and who's bad and that kind of clashes with Solas' "it's more complicated than that" attitude. Plus she does speak in something approaching the Thedas equivalent of Cockney English, which might be slightly less than comprehensible to a guy who's been living in the woods for most of his life.

Solas: Perhaps you should do that more often.

Inquisitor: Do what?

Solas: Whatever it is you do that causes Sera to quietly walk around with an idiotic grin on her face. It's nice being able to hear myself think.

Inquisitor: Uh...

Solas: It usually happens once or twice a week, but I'd be quite appreciative if it was a daily occurrence.

Sera: That's the first idea you've had that hasn't sounded batshit crazy.

Inquisitor: Solas, you do understand that I need to sleep right?

Solas: What does that have to do with anything?

Not gonna lie, I love companion banter about my girlfriend/boyfriend and romantic escapades

[Fialka]

Allan Schumacher@AllanSchumacher
So I have #DAI running idle as I do some other work. Which leads to periodic companion banter between everyone

user
@AllanSchumacher any particular companions who's banter you always look forward to? ^^

Allan Schumacher@AllanSchumacher
@user At the risk of causing massive forum postings... I'd probably have to go with Solas right now Might depend on mood though

user
@AllanSchumacher I just did the biggest and goofiest smile ever ahaha (Solas fan here)! I hope you have a good day, Allan! Take care!

Not sure if you guys saw this, but I didn't see it posted here... Figured it was relevant. And awesome!

Also, in the thread asking people to vote on their favorite moment in the new trailer, saw lots of picks for the Solas 'hand' scene. From people who don't post in this thread. When it's not even one of the options! It's kind of neat to see.

Aha! Oh man, why can't I like posts more than once?? Because that put the dumbest smirk on my face and I thank you for it. FAV.

Hm. "At the risk of causing massive forum postings"...? Why do I feel like Allan was just sitting there shaking his head at us when we set the place on fire because of Gamescom?

Haha he probably was! I mean, Solas could say one word on screen and there'd be a whole page in this thread to celebrate it.

Because he does. With his shifty eyes and his fennec slippers *still not over it*

I look back on my rants pre-Gamesom about the lack of Solas and am like Knowing that the devs keep an eye on the forums, I sometimes wonder if they just go 'wait for it...' and watch those post numbers rise whenever something new gets released. While drinking their tear-flavored martinis and laughing maniacally...

Um, don't mind me. It's been a weird day.

[manabloom]

True, true. We did all but party over four words. But we were a starving people! Gamescom was like... raining food! Like Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs!

and i'd say the solas thread is pretty chill, too. imagine if they deprived a more excitable group? the fires would've been real.

They probably do! I mean, how many days were we chanting "SOLAS, BLACKWALL, COLE" only to get exactly that? They probably were cackling at us that whole time.  And hahah, I can see that mental image... pretty clearly, actually. You know, sometimes I paint wine glasses for fun. One of these days I should really do one called "Fan Tears." ...Then again, maybe a pitcher would be more appropriate... Gods know I could fill one entirely on my own at any given time. 

[RebbyWriter]

I remember there being a comment on twitter about how, sometimes, Solas can make a joke and you wouldn't realize it until hours later. I can just imagine me and Quizzy holding back the giggles and the other companions is just like, "...What?"

 

 

Haha! Manabloom, your comment reminded me of something I said the other day. The Dragon Age facebook page was asking about what we'd name our weapons and I said, if there was going to be an option to name arrows, then I would name them Fan Tears so that I could rain them down on my enemies. I also feel like I'm responsible for all the future hype comments in the community. So, apologies about that. LOL!

 

 

*anudder edit*

 

Patrick Weekes is going through companions to listen to banter. Today is Solas/Cole/Iron Bull!

 

 

User

had Solas/Cole/Bull received a Team Name yet?

 

Patrick Weekes ‏@PatrickWeekes

I just go Body, Mind, and Spirit. It's an odd group. Fun relationships, but no single theme.

So just standing around can trigger banter? Interesting:

Solas: Inquisitor? Hello? He's just been standing there for hours.

Iron Bull: I've seen this before. He's got the thousand-yard stare, it's like whoever's calling the shots up there in that head of his had to go eat dinner...or use the privy.

Hahaha that would be amazing! I could also see Solas saying something in game at some point that breaks the fourth wall. He DOES have a lot of knowledge that nobody else has, after all

Yes! And having somebody break the fourth wall in ambient dialogue is tradition!

I can imagine him telling the 'Quiz about this one spirit he keeps noticing that has wild eyes and a face awash in strange glow. It never moves and the only sound it makes is an odd clicking... 

 

on a side note, no one ever let me spend as much time on an avatar as i spent on this one again! ...though i probably will... goddess help me when there are no more mega con info drops and all goes quiet... who knows what i'll do to distract myself then... 

[Rel Fexive]

....Plus she does speak in something approaching the Thedas equivalent of Cockney English....

 

No. No no no. Say it with me: Derbyshire accent.

 

Cockney  *shudder*  I swear people think there's only two accents in this country.

I wonder if timed banters means there are no more banter triggers to walk over (like that bridge in Orzammar I ran laps on just to hear my companions talk).

Ahaha... I did that too! And then I'd change out my party and do it again... Maybe just the plot-specific ones have triggers of some sort? Or the ones that remark on an area? Aahhh I can't wait to hear it all! And, if they are timed, that'll give yet another excuse to wander around aimlessly and discover things. Because the longer I take to do it the more I get to hear my companions say.

 

Edit: It is going to take me a stupidly long time to finish this game,,,

[scintilla]

So I may have discovered gifcam this morning.  And there was really only one way to learn how to use it.

The magic effects are really something else this time around. I don't usually like playing mages, and for my first run through the game I want my character to not have a personal stake with the whole mage issue, but damn... that fire... the lightning... everything...

[Solas]

omg the hood with holes for his ears is so frakkin adorable aaaa

 

patrick weekes said on twitter recently that the team-name for solas/bull/cole is mind body spirit

Agreed. Usually I prefer things a bit less flashy - but they're so beautifully done this time, and since everything else in the game looks so realistic the overall effect is just... wow. I plan to play a mage second so I can get all that added content on my next playthrough to keep things fresh (and prefer to romance mages with non-mages  ). But, I'll definitely be watching, rapt, as my companions make the pretties though.
