To this day I can’t make myself do a joja run, despite my dislike of the guy who owns the store in SDV.

One of the Bioware devs posted that something like 92% of players were heavily to entirely Paragon despite them putting a lot of effort into Renegade content. People want to care about others, even virtual folks. You get invested.

I do all sorts of evil shit in games. If you can kill it in the game I will. Dogs, cats, Klombo, fuck em.

I think it’s funny when you do something bad to video game characters.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think it's good to be able to empathize with fiction, to naturally resist the choice that hurts people or things, even if it's fake.

But yes yeeting a fictional child over a building can still be hilarious to watch.

Especially considering we’re entering an era where NPCs / robots are getting more and more human-like. Smh it feels more twisted to mistreat an android or AI-NPC than some vacuum or stickman NPC.

Me playing Rogue Trader trying to be all holy and emperor loving but holy fuck a lot of those dialogue choices are mean

You can't romance the Sister of Battle, 0/10, literally unplayable

DAMN YOU JAMES WORKSHOP FOR PREVENTING THIS

Her only love is for the Emperor, it makes sense!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

But as the Rogue Trader, you're the extension of the Emperor's will! So it'll even make more sense 🌚

That's it, philosophy over; turn out the lights and let's go home, everyone

Which way out of this cave, Plato?

points in a direction your mind can't understand, with the finger seeming to disappear as it bisects into a higher plane

"over there to the left after the bathrooms"

Least in games the good you do is rewarded. In real life the phrases " no good dead goes unpunished" applies more often then it should.

Fable. The only way to get the best bow in the game is to sacrifice a lot of innocent people.

Nah you just gotta do it right. Offer free drugs to the unhoused, watch how they love you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

See i feel like id get mugged or some gang kills me for undercutting them

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I wouldnt know anything about this, of course, but i think that's silly. Food is more likely to get the gangs on you.

I've never actually had a problem with non-state-supported gangs in california.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

lol good point and Another example of getting punished for just feeding others.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Nobody else is gonn give you shit about offering free drugs to the homeless. You don't stop being human when you join a street gang; it's not the police.

What if feeling bad is one of the consequences that no longer exists?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

Then that person lacks empathy

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Because it's my first run. First run is always the PARAGON OF MORALITY™ run.

I'm only an evil dick who doesn't care about the consequences when I am fully prepared to handle the consequences. And also know where the biggest weapons are.

Undertale leans super hard into this

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Yea that is it and I fucking don't really know why it is so, starting to get boring. Just played BG I again as a priest of helm running to everyone's rescue and strongly rejecting very cool evil companions. I think I will do an asshole rerun who hires every drow available. Gorion will not be proud but such is life.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Every time I mention I like Undertale and get "Did YoU bEat Sans?"

No, because I'm not a genocidal monster and I never will be. I did the pacifist route. Game over, nothing else to see here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Many, probably even most of us, are capable of separating game from reality. Bits don't have feelings.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

I tried the genocidal run and can't even pass the fish lady lmao.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

To be fair, if he would just spar with people, genocide runs would be cut down by 40%
