Moral Choice: What would you be?

[alittlepepper]

Though I generally prefer to take the "good" path in games that provide moral choice systems, recently I took the D&D 3 Alignment Test at the insistence of a friend of mine.

I ended up with Lawful Neutral. If you're curious about it then you can test yourself here: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/dnd/20001222b .

Still. I'd rather do good than evil, so I suppose that means neutral with good tendencies? I always end up feeling guilty when I do mean and bad stuff in games, like Kotor and Jade Empire.

i would probably some sort of neutral since i don't see good and evil like most others do something i see as good someone else would see as mind bendingly evil and i am out for me first and last

I'm Lawful Neutral If anyone can get the reference.

Meaning, If i'm really your friend, you have nothing to worry about. If not, when my goal change, you might end up on with a hilt coming out of your back. An a neutral character doesn't think about right and wrong but more of "What do i get for my troubles?" Damnation can be sweet if that mean i'm the one punishing other. No seriously, i nourish the desire to see the world burn.

If you're making a D&D reference, then you seem to be slightly mistaken about Lawful Neutral. Law and order are the main qualities of a Lawful Neutral person.

I'd fall into the Neutral Good end of the spectrum, I think.

I would be a grey area. The only grey areas I ever have are moral choices.

 

[NBSRDan]

I would be 100% good since morality is subjective.

I'm actually a very nice person in real life,but please don't piss me off. I really don't need another assault charge. I'm a really nice guy, with a wicked temper.

 

[Sightless Wisdom]

Probably just a tiny bit on the evil side if it comes down to one or the other. But I'm really what you'd call "Chaotic neutral".

Maybe, we never played in english. The way we did it was (interaction with other) (Light vs Darkess) so it may have been reverse. If it the case, i think my explication one my first post clear it up.

id be evil through and through... no one lives

 

[Dollar Bill]

I would probably be a little on the good side.

 

[Mr Thin]

I think of myself as nice, if a bit self-centered, and I'm always good in games.

But I got Lawful Neutral on that D&D test.

Damn.

 

[Kud]

I would love to say good side, but unfortunately, I think I would be on the bad/neutral side.

 

[Dr. Danger]

I doubt anyone can honestly say that they are bad in real life. With laws in place that keep people from murder and serious theft, it's hard to believe many would be classified as 'evil'

I am on the darker side of neutral though. I don't know what the coined term for it is but I'm a bit on the manipulative side. It makes me feel good to make others feel bad, I compulsively play the devil's advocate, and I lie like a dead dog. But I couldn't say I'm genuinely evil (though I always play it in video games)

Villains are so much more interesting.

 

[A Free Man]

Hmmm.. this is a really good question, I suppose like others I wouldn't say I'm a bad person but no one can be good all the time. I find that I usually try to do the 'right' thing whatever that may be but sometimes I do whatever is best for me or those I care about. So I am going to say neutral.

 

[Vhite]

Neutral good probably

 

[The_ModeRazor]

Chaotic neutral.
Or Chaotic Good.
Yeah, I'd go with Chaotic Good. Because chaos is good!

 

[Lineoutt]

I would probably be good, chaotic good, neutral good, or neutral neutral. On second hand maybe not chaotic good because that reminds me of Tom Zarek and how I do so hate him... but I guess he may not be chaotic neutral, idk.

We all know games of this generation enjoy implementing moral choice systems. A system that judges whether you are a good or bad person. Acts of kindness and charity lead to "Good Karma", while acts of evil or malice lead to "Bad Karma". Now, let's consider for a moment that a moral choice system was set in place for real life. If this system was true for real life, where would you land on the scale?

Are you a good, virtuous person who does right every step of the way, or are you a malicious person that brings out the worst in what society has to offer? Or are you in the gray area? The great in between; not quite good, not quite evil?

I seem to be good since in games bad means dismissing rationality and focusing only on what is bad to do, not worth while.
