Next is the BioWare Gear store variant of the artbook, which comes with this print of this new art of Solas. [image from the Gear store] (Felassan stuff here). Felassan aside, it also reminds of Andruil's golden Spear (Felassan tells a story where Fen'Harel is captured by Andruil..). I looove this art, it's so pretty. :> the armor he's wearing reminds me of this one. of course, the focal point of the image is the Lyrium Dagger, which he is pointing to. Solas' eyes glow blue, like the Dread Wolf's here, like the blue dagger, like they do when he uses his restored powers in Trespasser. (sometimes, the wolf's are depicted as blue, other times they're depicted as red. it's always 👁️ when wondering about the possible meanings of that choice). his cape is a deep navy or blue-black kinda tone and it billows, looking almost like a flowing river. I think this is a cool idea given stuff like all the watery language/imagery around the Fade, and I wonder if it was intentional given that the wavy lines in the background end where the cape begins.
the wolf is beside him, or maybe it's more accurate to say it kind of lurks in his shadow? there's also a blue wavy line, watery-kinda effect over much of the image. it's particularly emphasized around the bottom and on the wolf, with blue lines coming from its eyes. in general and kind of compositionally this image also reminds me of this one from a past trailer: you've got the billowing cape, the wolf, the glowing blue eyes, the wavey blue effect etc.
the most 👁️ aspect of this art though is his golden crown/headpiece. it reminds a lot of the Evanuris heads with their headpieces in the dragon's wings on the 'Black City' side of the vinyl cover
and more so of (given its shape is more similar to these ones), Flemythal's crown and the one Morrigan now wears in DA:TV.
Does this print depict a scene from the ancient elven past? Fen'Harel maybe with his own headpiece in his own right, or maybe a Mythal-similar headpiece when he was in her service or something. I hope we see him wearing this in the game. :D
My health bar HAHAHAHHAHA NG+ don't ef around. He ignored my fable arts that I was hanging onto a thread twice in a row lmao GOD I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH I wish we can have a mode wherein we can repeat the boss fights :(
AND THAT'S IT FOLK, WE ARE FINALLY AT THE END, THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYBODY WHO VOTED AND SPECIALLY TO EVERYONE WHO REBLOGED.
Rayman 3 inspired this whole thing and fought it's way to a very deserved 2º place, but in the end, the amazing Original Cover for Legends reigned supreme.
I wasn't planing on this happening so soon after the Rayman reveal in Mario + Rabbids, but i'm so gald it happened.
Nothing left to say other than, go play some Rayman they are all bangers and I'm so gled he's finally back.
I often wonder what would have had happened if the rain had returned. Would we still have met? Or would we have led parallel lives elsewhere, each of us unaware of the other's exsitance? As much as seeing the Great Basin dry up more with each sleep fills me with despire, I can't help but be happy by your side.
With the promotional trailer for ruina dropping and revealing the new voices the gangs gonna have in Japanese first impressions is I have no problem with any of them they sound correct for the character's (though I prefer the Korean ones due to bias of being the ones I heard first). I do not have any issues of whatever voice option someone uses for the game but if someone decides to complement the Japanese dub by disregarding the Korean dub as garbage then I will be slapping the shit out of them from district A to Z
