I still don't think he's the villain. Not because omg I'm in love, or woobie, etc. I don't even think Solas is the good guy. I think he's going to be a very very big gray character. I think, judging by the mythos and his backstory, that he fucked up big and him waking up has been followed by him trying to un-fuck everything. I think what happened with Mythal will end up being a part of that. IDK, I'm not in the fandom, but I've seen a lot of Solas' fans and how much they seem to be in love with him. I liked his romance story, it definitely made things interesting... but mostly I think the ending left it open for him to play a huge part in what's coming, but I don't think he's the bad guy NOR do I think he's the GOOD guy, really. He's not a good person, but... I don't think he's a villain or a bad one, either. Just complex. Which tbh surprised me because up until the reveal I thought he was the most boring companion (which now I realize was probably done on purpose... and here I was questioning Bioware's character writing... my bad)

Even if he is a gray character, he is still responsible for the events of DAI. He is the reason the Conclave exploded, the Divine died, and the Inquisitor is forced into their role. He has so much blood on his hands, and fandom just does not give a fuck about it at all.

This.

Yeah, he didn't intend for the Breach to happen, and he jumps right on board to help with sealing it, but that doesn't change the fact that it would never have happened in the first place if he hadn't given a darkspawn magister from the dawn of time a magical doomsday device to unlock.

I feel similarly about him regarding good and bad. I don't think he fits into either category, and I could see him helping or hindering things in the future, depending on circumstances. He's a bit unpredictable.

I'm not sure why anyone would want to wobbify him... He's fascinating as is. The reveal still makes me giddy; well played, BioWare.

(As for Blackwall, Dragon Age is full of people who do awful shit on a regular basis. I was able to forgive Blackwall pretty easily.)

I agree with all of this. I think he fucked up and is trying to make up for his mistakes and ends up making other mistakes in the process.

I'm not in the fandom, I'm a grown-assed woman of 37 and don't read fanfiction or Tumblr or lust after videogame characters. I just think he's a very interesting, well-written character and am interested in seeing where Bioware goes with him.
