Evil is way more fun. You don't have any restraints if you play an evil character. I can kill begers and podestrians, and everyone in lathandar's temple. It's loads of fun. if you get bored with the game at any point, or even you just want to releive some stress, all you need to do is kill a few bystanders an WHAM you're feeling better,as for cooler. . . Everyone loves that bad boy image.

Sorry but would some of you, GET A GRIP. Its only a fantasy game, let me repeat that fantasy.

Fantasy as in not real, I like to play evil occasionaly but would never do so in real life. I doubt anyone as this forum would contemplate commiting the atrocites of Hitler, Stalin or any other mad man. Its a game.

yes, jabidas. i know this just a fantasy game(sorry, i think i got carried away). in real life i ,ofcourse, am not evil. but in fantasy games, i think evil is just more fun and evil characters are mostly more cool. i belive i started liking them after i saw many stupid movies and cartoons, where ALWAYS the same kind of merry things(people?) go bouncing around the flower fields, saying lame jokes and ALWAYS winning in everything. as a wierd example, take tom and jerry: mouse always wins, cat always loses

We all know its a fantasy game, but in fantasy games, i get to live how i want to live. ITs fun, thats the point. Playing as evil is soo cool, and there's no real punishment, thanks to the load option.

oldbittercraig, you are one of those with TOO much spare time it seems [img]smile.gif[/img]

I never figured Sauron to look like sarevok, an armoured figure. It the book doesn't claim him to be. Read it before you judge, little one.
The only person that sayshe looks like that is some ugly, stupid, film-director with hybris, that doesn't know a shit about anything, neither about making films nor the LotR-work.

Acctually, I would have loved to be as Hitler or Stalin, as long as I wouldn't have to suffer the consequenses.
And, as Jabidas said, it is only a game man. uss doesn't kill whole Trademeet to simulate his plan of doing the thing fo real [img]smile.gif[/img]

I believe my post regarding Sauron being all armored out contained the cavaet "at least the recent cinematic portrayal of him."

I guess you missed that part.

I just responded getting annoyed at this "evil is cooler" crap, especially the "Sauron is cooler than Gandalf, trust me on this".

It just rankled me, that's all.

Yes, well, I guess I have to agree with you on that point. Gandalf is the king.

But on the other hand, you don't get to know Sauron much. Only Silmarilion describes him any at all, and... well, let's just say we all know how silmarilion is [img]smile.gif[/img]

YOU WOULD HAVE LOVED TO BE WHAT!?!?!

THE ONLY REASON I AM NOT FLAMING YOU TO DEATH RIGHT NOW IT TO RESPECT THE OTHER PEOPLE OF THE BOARD! ONLY SOME CRAZY PSYCHOTIC WOULD WANT TO BE HITLER!

You just did flame me, in case you didn't noticed.
I guess you wouldn't care to argue for your sake?
