Well yeah, but depending on how you look at it it isn't all bad. I mean Im not advocationg slavery or anything but I think Ceasar has the whole "Survival of the Fittest" going on. Point is he has morals and laws and implements them constantly across all classes and ethnicities. But the NCR depending on who you ask murder isn't a crime, "stealing? Nah, this is just redistribution of wealth", "Slaves? No, they're indentured servants" "Murder? Oh, you mean that body under the carpet?". Point being Ceasar is honest about everything he does the NCR isn't. He says fuck with me I'll kill you. NCR says you have the freedom of speech then takes you away in the night because you're the voice of dissent.EboMan7x said:Well yeah, except again, Caesar promotes slavery... so... theres that.Icarion said:Depends on my mood. If I have companions in a game I desperately want them to like me so I try not to piss them off. Sometiems I am happy to slay the prick who keeps holding me up, but ont the other hand if someone needs help I'll usually stop and help them.I think that's the point they're trying to get across. The NCR might look like the good guys, but deep down they're just selfish, corrupt pricks. And Ceasar is actually a pretty cool guy, he just has an inflated egoEboMan7x said:Me and the writers of the game often have disputes about what is good. The biggest conundrum I've encountered is that of The New Californian Republic in FNV.
I certainly want to be on their good side when the shit hits the fan, and they are better than Caesars legion (hey I take racism over slavery of whoever any day), but it just seems that in almost all of the quests they ask me to do I end up royally fucking some other people I've been trying to build up a reputation in.![]()
Well, okay fine the NCR are scumbags. But just because Caesar is being open about his assholism does not make him a good guy. In the end I feel it would be better to be on the good side of the NCR. Not that I actually support them, In "That Lucky old Sun" I distributed power to the entire region, and I support an Independent New Vegas. And also, I don't believe NCR has ever enslaved anybody.

Does the Sharecropper farm count? Because it seemed like a pretty shitty deal for the people there. Im not sure though. I only have one playthrough and thats not even done yet. Im pretty sure there was no outright slavery though. And no being open about being an asshole doesn't make you good. but I think the whole point (kinda) of the game is to show that there is no true "right" or "wrong" just degrees of evilEboMan7x said:Well, okay fine the NCR are scumbags.

You have to fight the hard fight with Vader anyway...if you choose the bad ending at that point, all you have to do is an easy fight to finish Vader off. The Emperor is the hardest fight.ssgt splatter said:Most recently, I played Star Wars The Force Unleashed and I almost always choose the good ending where you fight the emperor but only because he is easier to fight than Darth Vader.
I'm not sure I follow your logic. To me The Emperor is much easier than Vader; although this might has something to do with the fact that he doesn't have his lightsaber. Vader is much harder because he can block almost all your attacks and can pretty much choose at will when he wants to interrupt your combo attack for no other reason other than cheating.DarkWarriorSSJ said:You have to fight the hard fight with Vader anyway...if you choose the bad ending at that point, all you have to do is an easy fight to finish Vader off.
