Good Vs. Evil, what will you be? Options

[gamer10]

I plan on being good, but joining the dark side soon after. I find my lack of faith disturbing . . .

Meaning I'll probably set out to help some NPC, and in the long run end up killing everyone in town when I get bored with the mission.

I am a taoist so I do not believe in good and evil, however my first character will be very likely to kill people for houseing, items etc. and I will learn the landscape with that character, she will prolly go stealth, the later after a few hours I will make a character who follows the quest lines and does what he is supposed to do, but sneak in a comfort kill now and again...I just can't help myself... Games with violence don't make people violent, they make violent people from being violent in real life by allowing an outlet for anger, aggression, hostility, and bloodlust...that's kinda me...I just gotta see more blood...red...moist... warm....sticky,... copper-tasting ahhhhhhhhhhh yeeaaaaaa that's it....

will you be an evil tyrant or a nobel hero?

An assasin that works for watever pays him the most so probally evil for the most part. I also am considering being an evil sorcerer or a noble knight but mostly an evil dude.

Gee, I don't know. Good leaves me feeling like I've done the right thing (which I have ), but evil is occasionally more fun.... plus I want my first game to be an assassin/Thief....

I'll be Evil when it's convenient.

Although that usually means I'm pure good in rpgs because somebody once had the silly idea that there should always be multiple valid options to solve a problem.
I think this rather poor because it degrades evil to pointlessness. Sometimes there just are moments that you have to massacre a whole town because they don't agree with your policy and you can't afford the troops to quell the riots. Then again, I'm doing it to save the lives of my own troops and subjects.

I gravitate away from pure good and evil. I love moral ambiguity; after all, the decisions you make in Tamriel are difficult to classify. Should you believe one person or the other? Would it be better to execute the criminal or to learn his motives? It's hard to be good; being evil is cheesy

I roleplay characters with serious moral defects. Then, as the story progresses, I'll slowly transition to a good character. For example, I'll start the game as a thief and then develop into a warrior. Panging for the character development that's impossible in an open game, I try to create my own. Down with static characters and simple labels of "good" and "evil". In most RPGs the moral decisions are so elementary that good and evil are just faceplates, inane avatars. Morrowind, and I assume other Bethesda titles, was different.

I like the challange of being evil and getting away with it.
However from what I have read both the theives and DB require you get caught in the act prior to invitation to there respective guilds.
So I reckon that before I "acquire" anything good the best bet is to steal something right at the begining to get your theives guild invite.
I am pretty sure that when you get arrested anything that doesn't belong to you goes.
Which is the only real negative to getting caught.
With the DB I think you have to kill an innocent, but does that mean you have to get caught as well or just kill them and the DB will find out then invite you.

I reckon both of these story lines are going to be some of the best immersion elements to the whole game.

Yeah probebly, I can't wait... I will love to be contacted in jail and stage a breakout (if thats what is going to happen anyways...)

[Dark_Elf_]

I don't think he's either, but I guess he's really not very evil, so I guess I'll go with good.

[Proof]

A bit of both He has a noble goal but will break the law to accomplish it.

[jack cloudy]

Good and Evil don't exist. My character will probably be a bit of a loner. He has seen the worst of humanity and lost fate. And there is something about some guy who looks a bit evil. So he will be a sneaky, backstabbing unsocial guy who prefers to blast opponents with stuff as blind, paralysis and fatigue damage before finishing the job with a sword. But he'll still do a good thing from time to time. After all, I can't let those Daedra ruin that beautiful forest!

I think I never played an evil character in any RPG I can remember, I just find it hard to "role-play" as pure evil. However I tend to start off quite neutral to leave as many options open as possible to explore the game. But I'll usually end up being the kind hero that helps an old lady get her cat back from a tree.

[Sirin]

i've said it once, i'll say it again: i like being good better. but in oblivion, the vastness of your options will probably make me opt for evil

[Million]

Its kinda hard not to be evil. Since I steal stuff alot and I kill people for their houses.

[Sirin]

but mind you, you filthy hedonistic sinner you (joking, by the way), you can buy your OWN house, or say they so (they might be deceiving us ) so there's no need to kill people for their's!!

[Passsie]

i will be a GOOD ... thief

Stealing soent mean i`m bad person... as long i dont kill anyone

[Curly_G_]

I have a neutral character and an Evil character planned, but I doubt I'll stay in the boundaries when I get a good offer.

[xycolian]

I will be very evil. evil to the degree in which i wear the full set of daedric armor (which makes me look utterly evil ) and I will also outfit my evil, war-going steed with a full set of daedric horse armor (which makes look even more utterly evil ). I will also slay people where they are standing if i overhear them talking to one-another about how weird or dumb they think i am. if anybody runs to the guards and tells the guards where i am when i have a high bounty on my head i will make sure to slay the person who told on me to the guards before i do anything else.

[Toidi.Loof]

Im sort of confused i want to be good but i like the dark brotherhood. I think ill play it evile at first and then convert to the good side

[Dark one]

There is no good or evil. There is just balance. Ill be the protector of the balance. ( No MAN !!! Ill be pure evil )
