Hate and anger mostly.
Also it says this is a poll thread but there's no poll, what's up with that?

I'm actually rather unemotional for the most part; having spent many years focusing on thinking things through and deciding from there, leaves little room for profound emotional influence.
Of course, that isn't to say I lack emotions.
To directly answer the question though, I suppose it would be a menagerie of the bunch; whatever I happened to be feeling at the time.

Empathy.
Kinda wierd, I know but I can't stand the thought of other people suffering.
That is when I'm not sidetracked by my own problems, in which case it is fear/sorrow.

Same here. That's why I'm almost always a good guy in games. My most recent Fallout 3 playthrough is the exception, as I kill every scavenger that I find and steal what I wantValate said:
The driving force behind my actions is the desire to not feel stress. I'm not sure if theres a single-word equivalent.
TRICK QUESTION!
a persons motivations for their actions cannot be put down solely to a singular emotion, but are instead a covalency of multiple emotions and agendas. It also depends on how you or other people view you, for instance sigmund freud (speelings wrong i think :\) claims that everything we do is in some way in the pursuit of sexual fulfillment...
... he was also a crack addict, so i dont believe him.
OT though, probably... boredom. I do pretty much everything because i "was bored at the time"

But really, I don't have just one or two emotions driving my actions. I guess ambition,empathy, curiosity, love, happiness, pain, fear. I'm rather confusing.
All of them. Emotions of any kind will influence any person's actions. So the emotions I feel most are Empathy, Apathy, Sorrow, and Anger. Yes, I know empathy and apathy are opposites, they are the two emotions I feel most. I empathize with my friends, and i don't give a shit about just about anyone else.
