I pretty much make choices based on how I'd react in the situation, so for the most part I play the benevolent attitude card. Although when it comes time to dish out justice I tend to reciprocate in the most appropriate way valid to the situation, i.e. an eye for an eye. Some Buddhist I'd be. >.>
Depends on the game. If you're forced to be all out one alignment to get the most of the game, e.g. inFAMOUS, I'll always go evil first.
If it simply has an alignment system but doesn't enforce it, like Mass Effect, I'll just do whatever I feel like, usually resulting in neutral.

I guess mostly good. I can take the occasional karma hit, but for the most part I do all the right things.
Chaotic Good is my preferred alignment, doing the right thing but in my own way and sometimes making sure it benefits myself as well as others.
I also like true neutral but most videogames HATE this, you only get benefits for pure good/evil and neutral is just how you start the game which sucks like being neutral has no advantages whatsoever (tell that to a diplomat)

I start on chaotic neutral and go done from there, mid game I'm like: "Oh sh*t I've turned out to be some helping douchebag, let's murder someone before I can't get the evil ending anymore."
Mostly I'm disappointed by the options my character choses from, mostly they are not evil enough.

Sure, I would more or less do the right thing, but I would usually do it on my own terms (or what I personally believe is right).

Without an official Paladin Code (tm) to follow it's a bit of a tricky situation, but generally lawful good will weigh laws to see if they uphold a lawful good standard. If they do, they'll keep to them. If not, they'll ideally work within the law to enact the desired changes, but if necessary they'll just ignore the law and uphold their own moral code (for example, if he/she's in a lawful evil empire with legal slavery).Mcoffey said:
Chaotic good characters do not so much weigh the law itself, as more the situation at hand. The law may be good (no stealing), but if someone's threatening to starve a chaotic good character'll generally approve breaking the law to steal some food.
But of course, there's lots of shades of grey imaginable, which is where moral conflicts and roleplay opportunities come in.
i tend to be a total sociopath in games except in conversations then i'm nice, after the conversation is over i tend to get stabby, or worse, creative also i steal people blind.
yeah i generally am a level 10 douche from the get go in games. (on a scale from 1 to 10)

I intended to do a playthrough of both the games to have a renegade savefile for ME 3. I stopped a few hours into ME1, I just wasn't having fun.Yureina said:
So yeah, I more or less always play good characters.
That said in games like Deus Ex, Deus Ex:HR, the Fallout games, etc, I every now and again get in a "dick around" -mood.
IE "Let's punch this random npc so hard in the groin that his torso explodes!" (<3 FO2)
Or "I wonder how many homeless people I can kill by throwing a fridge from the fifth floor?"
neutral; I do what I want when I want. Sometimes I do good things and sometimes I do bad things.
