How many ppl here are sick of the lack of allignment choice...

How many ppl here are sick of the lack of allignment choice... what I mean is, there only seems to be 'good' or 'evil'. for those of you who play TN, or even some kinda neutral, do you feel its left out? Its kinda hard to explain... e.g. if ur a CE, you dont agree with the law right? so if you break it, it isnt nessaccerly evil - to your allignment; yet *if* you follow your allignment, its shifts however-many-points-towards evil. I think that sucks. and frankly its begining to piss me off... how many of you feel the same?

made it a poll so ppl DONT have to write their replys, feel free to tho... lol; should I have put another option? 'stop whinging and just accept it'? *grins*

Well, it's a paladin's game, and I'm a paladin, so there. [img]tongue.gif[/img] to all evil alignments.

bah! dont any of you play Neutral? like Neutral good or evil?

GodSlayer · 07-08-2002, 09:36 AM

well being TN means (other that having a BIG personality problem [img]smile.gif[/img] ) that you can do a little of both, this way you can stay neutral. If you do the "good thing" but always take money for it your alignment won't shift much.

No the biggest problem in this game (1-player) is IF you choose the evil choices you end up with more problems that is ok. I started NE but now i'm NG

- I don't like it, but it's too much loot you loose if you play evil (yes you get a lot of money, but not the nice items and the nice XP)

Good ex. In Helms Hold there's the trapped demon, which you can release of banish. If you release him you can get an item and 375xp.
If you banish him you get 375xp. and then you can summon the helm guardian, get an item and 375xp more.

Hmm. you got a point...

Attalus · 07-08-2002, 09:49 AM

Playing Evil is its own punishment, as well it should be.

Calaethis Dragonsbane · 07-08-2002, 09:53 AM

Indeed... but what I have a prob with, the game seems to ONLY let 'good' be LAWFUL good.. maybe Im jsut being picky, but as a ranger, an NG ranger, I follow my OWN moral code, as such, according to the char discription/allignment discription.
