I don't like the idea of Solaire as a character. To me it is everything wrong with how people misinterpret the point of the Souls series. Everyone in those games is just a normal person with barely any information known about them, with small archetypal personality traits making them stand out. It's the minimalism that makes those characters memorable. Every time someone suggests Solaire in Smash, it seems pretty obvious that they are someone not into the series. I've even seen people say that he should be added because he's "iconic". Yes, I suppose he is, but only because he was meme'd into oblivion for no reason but a slightly over the top phrase.
I just don't like the idea. I find it to be a perversion of the point of Dark Souls. Besides, I don't really see how he is any more worthy than Oscar, considering he saves you from the dungeon, and his armor is the poster boy for the series.
