I personally think the reason why everyone loves him is cuz hes a nice guy in a world where almost everything tries to kill you.

When I first started playing the game, I really had a tough time progressing through the game. Everything was unwelcoming, unknown and tried to kill me. But after I killed the Taurus Demon, a boss a tried to beat 10 times, a went down the stairs, and then I saw a figure standing at the balcony. The way he talked, a wholesome way for sure, was sooo valuable and and comforting. While the whole world there was collapsing, this character just kept on going and was always optimistic. In fact, if you open the Lost Izalith shortcut, he can be saved. I really loved the fact that his summon sign was there for the final bossfight with Gwyn

Dark souls was so impactfull to me that My yearbook quote is actually Solaire. "So, what do you say? Why not help one another on this lonely journey?"

My favourite FromSoft character by a wide margin. First time meeting him in game has always stuck with me.

I’d say the biggest reason I fell in love with him was how tragic his story was. He spent the entire story searching for his sun only for him to be taken by a sunlight maggot and sending him down the path of insanity, leading you to having to put him out of his misery. I can’t be the only one who replayed the game just to save him, that is what I love about FromSoft games. While their stories are quite vague without context, they make you feel for their characters. WE LOVE YOU SOLAIRE, PRAISE THE SUN!! ☀️

This video is brilliant, been watching lore videos since 2015 and this has been the most eye opening one! We are experiencing his world just as he experienced Tolkein's, what a fun revelation :)

Honestly, dark souls doesn’t deserve solaire, he is just too pure, the only character in a game that I genuinely love But I suppose that’s his charm, the circumstances he is in \[T]/

Solaire is one of the very, very few friends we get through our journey. Moreso that he helps us, BUT! And that's the BIG BUTT: one of the few we can help ourselves to reach his goal without succumbing to a dire fate.

I loved Solaire so much that when I made my character for DS3 I came up with a whole wacky headcanon of Solaire's soul somehow becoming fused with my DS1 character soul's to form an entirely new being, making my DS3 character a sort of spiritual son of the two of them. I even built my skills around that idea, essentially using the same build I used in DS1 but also investing heavily in faith and sunlight miracles.

Tolkien? TOLKIEN?! George R.R. Martin, who was not only a major inspiration for Dark Souls but also the main writer of Elden Ring, and you don't even mention him? I love LotR as much as anyone else but c'mon. Theres more than one R.R. these day and Tolkien is no longer the most influential one.
