Then be an ordered Sith. Lawful evil in DnD terms.
Hmm...not my usual approach, but I suppose that could work.
I just prefer dispassionate murder, is all.
When you get all worked up over something, you look silly.
Your character is your character. Play him as you want.

As a Roleplayer, playing Evil gets boring really, really fast.

So Republic 4-Eva, 'mates'.

Bounty Hunter bitches. I'm out to make money and burn some faces while doing so.

So...the Sith. So much more freeing. Less oppressive rules than the Jedi.

Can't I be neither? A mercenary or rogue Jedi of sorts that hates politics? Can't I be my own Bindo?!

Let me see, an intergalactic government with near limitless resources, cohesive structure, well established military superiority and an ordered society or...

A hodgepodge of random, underfunded aliens that are technically "good" but can't tie their shoes without fraking it up.

Tough choice.

Galactic Republic!

Because with the Sith you never know when your commander/leader/etc. is going to find you too compitent/incompitent and force choke your sorry ass.

And just assuming you will be the commander doing to choking is arrogance and foolishness. Though I'm not suprised that Sith is winning in the poles as the internet is full of people who like to delude themselves into thinking that they're the best.

My decision is largely going to depend on what classes are still to be announced, I'm going to play whatever class seems the most interesting to me rather then make a choice based on a side.

Also, for the Good vs Evil people - this is just my personal speculation, but I see Bioware painting the Sith Empire side more as self centered neutrals rather then pure chaotic evil for the pure sake of being evil, especially the non-Sith classes like the Bounty Hunter. Not evil, just there to simply do a job, but isn't going to let morality or anything else get in the way.

People there is NO EMPIRE. There are no Clone Troopers. This game as you all should know that keep referring to the "Empire" is based in the Old Republic time line like KOTOR was. The evil forces in this game are The Old Sith Empire. Not the first, but the second(I do believe). So no Empire. The Empire does not exist for another 2-3 thousand years. And no, it is not the same. There are tons of differences between the Sith Empire and the new Empire. Namely that the "Rule of Two" has not been implemented yet in the Sith Empire for the Sith as a whole thus allowing thousands of Sith to roam the Galaxy. That is a huge difference.

Let's see... support a corrupt democracy led by those who have somehow bought their way into power or follow the Sith Emperor, a man so powerful no one can stand against him in combat and has proven his skills as a leader by starting a campaign that his effectively crippled the Republic into a state which it will be unlikely to recover from any time soon...

Sith please. Because when Smugglers managed to do something Jedi can't, you know the galaxy is falling apart.

I suppose the Republic has less 'Do as the Emperor says or die a horrible death' which is always a good thing...

You don't get choked if you don't fail. If you show your power with the force and keep winning, there is no problem. If you fail, then there is a problem. And commanders who keep choking their underlings without good reason often find themselves betrayed when their protential victims gather together and over throw them... The strongest survive, but the foolish equally do not last long.

EDIT - If you fail AND YOU SURVIVE there is a problem. Death before defeat.
