I get the feeling that he's absolutely smashed back there. Orlesian nobility might have mistook him as a servant and gave all drinks to him, which he chugged.
At this point Solas' theme is not Lost Elf but the Circus theme. He's not a comedian. He's not even the entire circus. He's the spirit of comedy by itself.
I love this clown, his disguise as apostate hobbo lasted what? A few weeks? then it was so plainly obvious he was hidding something and Bull KNEW, he may be the god of lies but he is bad at it
My Rook called my Lavellan out about this. “He’s the god of *lies* Inquisitor.” Her response is basically tantamount to: “Yeah, isn’t that hilarious?” 😂
Maybe because it was like a decade between those events? Inquisition Solas was "freshly" awaken from slumber, weak and nearly destroyed world as his very first action. Then he joined with people who were trying to "repair" his mistake. This is more Fen'harrel, not Solas. Decade being on his own with the power of a "god" simply reset him to his old ways. Arrogant SOB, who thinks that he knows best and everyone else is wrong. Arrogant, prideful and blinded by his own hubris. I see them as two different personalities. "Human" Solas from Inquisition and "God" Solas from Veilguard. One had no choice but to mingle with "lessers" to have any chance of repairing the Rift. The other just needed someone to get him out and take his place. Basically Rook was sacrificial lamb, while Inquisitior("depending on the story") can become a true friends with him.
@@HanithSVKI think it’s a bit simpler than that. Piecing together context clues and his last conversation in Trespasser, Mythal turned him from his original purpose as a spirit and he BECAME Fen’Harel He even said “Solas came first” and “Fen’Harel was a name given TO him” In fact… I’d even go so far as to say him taking a physical form at Mythal’s request was the moment he lost his true purpose and became a demon. With no veil, perhaps there is no visual differences between spirits and demons, just their behavior is different (the “Varric’s chest hair, Cassandra’s cheek bones dont define them” conversation while still at Haven.) I like the “romance-high approval” version of Solas, but I think the “respect-high approval” hits harder and has more feeling Of course Solas would want to help someone he loves. It wouldn’t even really require much thought on his part to set things in motion… But for a friend? He discovered the Qunari had infiltrated the Inquisition. Knowing he wouldn’t be trusted, he both ensured a Qunari corpse would show up conspicuously near an active Eluvian, AND he has his own spy (the blonde elf girl) ensure that the Inquisitor is put on the right path. Literally every step of the way, you learn something new about solas. I think he feels so much guilt about having to betray his friend, that he wants… NEEDS… The Inquisitor to understand why. Once you finally catch up to him, you discover that this last meeting had been arranged by him so he could do what he was not powerful enough to do before claiming a fragment of Mythal’s power. He removes the Anchor and saves the Inquisitot’s life Ask the right questions and you can actually see just how far the change in his personality was from the begging of the game til now. He admits that when he first awoke, the people who lived in this time were unimportant. They were not very wise, very strong, very noble, very peaceful. They were a mistake and reminder of just how very wrong his original plan had gone. Over the course of the game though, The Inquisitor SHOWS just how wrong he was in his view. Every time you preserve something of the past, every time you claim power (like the keeps that become new bases of Inquisition influence) and do NOT abuse it, every time you help someone in need with no desire for reward… you make him doubt. All he knew before was viciousness. War. Death. Pain. To him, all rulers are like the Evanuris. Hungering for power and never getting enough. A hunger so strong that it very nearly consumes the world in blight. Mythal MAY have been a friend, but never forget he was also bound to her will. The Inquisitor shows Solas a maturity and thoughtfulness he had never expected to find (and he even comes right out and says that in one of his high-approval cutscenes). A restraint not even the “gods” of his own people were capable of showing. The final “high approval” conversation is by far the most important in regards to Veilguard. He admires the way the Inquisitor handled the elven guards of the Temple of Mythal. She showed them and Mythal respect by completing the rite of petition. The Inquisitor took a risk by not just running off after Samson/Calpernia, and it paid off. He admires how you seem to have found a way to balance preserving the past with the needs of the present. He’s actually visibly happy in this conversation. I think it was this exact moment that the chance of redeeming him becomes possible. The Inquisitor has legitimately changed his world view.
Rook: This is the reason nobody likes you.
Solas: WRONG, idiot, this well runs DEEP
😂😂😂
That “depending on the story” being said fast gets me 😂
Solas saying "sex" with so much emphasis will always be my favorite "what the hell, Solas?" moment
Everyone else is being so professional, then there’s Solas, eight drinks in and talking about everyone’s sex lives
He's probably smashed at this point, given how stupid Orlesians dump all drinks to him and in a rare moment of pettiness he chug them all.
@@RainWelsh”I REMEMBER WHEN THEY INVENTED SEX”
That’s not a joke, he actually does

I love how not having to pretend he's just a weird apostate hedge mage has just turned Solas into an even bigger sassmaster than he already was
"I am grim and fatalistic, getting you into bed is just a side benefit", that was gold
That "Haha yes" still gets me every time to this day
Why does he just walk away like that 😂
Sassy little shit Solas is my favourite Solas.
At this point Solas' theme is not Lost Elf but the Circus theme.
He's not a comedian. He's not even the entire circus. He's the spirit of comedy by itself.
my good friend solas is the funniest person i know
Rook: who are you? The elven god of Sarcasm?
Solas: Lies, Trickery, and Rebellion...Depending on the story
The elven god of Sarcasm
Who knew a spirit of wisdom could be such a dumbass. I love him so much.
I love this clown, his disguise as apostate hobbo lasted what? A few weeks? then it was so plainly obvious he was hidding something and Bull KNEW, he may be the god of lies but he is bad at it
the only reason he got away with it is because the truth was so completely unbelievable that nobody would ever guess it lmao

God of lying by omission then doing the shifty eyes dog motions from the Simpsons and hoping no one sees him do that.
That's his full title 🤣😂🤣
"Nghaaah!" is a personal favourite! 😌 3:03
(I may have extracted his VO of that)
HAHAHA (I feel that bestie. 🤝 also what’s with that name LMFAO)
@@toiny3404 BOO
How do I still love this Egghead??
Adore him😂
That was so funny 😂 I love Solas so much 😊
I'm glad I'm not the only one laugh afterall 😂
this man is so funny
ugh I love the🥚
My egghead
I miss my husband
Lol!!
His entire character is a joke so
Mmm. Might just be me but Solas in DAI and Solas in DAV are... very different. His snark just doesn't hit the same.

lets think critically and consider why this may be
@vampiresquid_1 screw off, you shill. I didn't say anything bad about the game/ acting/ etc. I made an observation. Or is that not allowed anymore?
