How are you going to play your first story? I have been thinking about going evil the first play, I have always went good first than evil later on with a different play campaign.

I play more of an amoral assassin with a white knight complex. I protect the women and children so long as they aren't actively trying to kill me and aren't just complete [censored]s who deserve a bullet in the brain, but other than that it's a you help me and I help you. You screw me and you won't see the bullet coming.

Evil. Only the strongest can survive.

Something less black and white.

Good. Whenever I try to play as a truly evil character I just feel uneasy and lose interest trying to be such a turd.

Chaotic Neutral?

too bad you can't remain neutral. gray jedi ftw!

Mostly altruistic but rather sadistic towards NPCs and creatures that my character finds unconscionable.

Quick question guys...how do you create a poll? I went to the section where I could create the poll (you're capable of entering e question and the poll answers) but I couldn't apply it to my post.

Go to "Create new topic" then to the right there should be a thing for "manage poll options." After that, just type in the title, type in the options, do anything else you need to, and then hit "finish." That should work, unless I'm forgetting something. It's never not connected the poll to my topic after I hit "finish" before.

Amoral

Thanks for the advice. I figured it out.

Some might argue that good is stronger than evil. Why?

Deliberate evil is selfish. They are more concerned about self-preservation than the good character, thus they will be more likely to flee than good characters given the same circumstances. So if an evil and a good character are fighting with relatively even strength, good prevails because the evil character will try to escape while the good character will chase him down.

But I digress. I always play good because I always feel some degree of guilt with evil runs. Evil makes me uneasy, and witnessing it IRL pisses me off.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.

I'll be a good boy. I've tried to be bad in the past in Fallout 3 and I didn't stay evil for 5 minutes. I jsut don't have it in me.

I judge people as they come to me, so long as they're decent to me I'm good in return.

True Apathy.

I suppose acting like a good guy to peoples faces and then shooting them in the back makes me pretty evil?

What, no grey area?

Good or 'neutral'.

I like to base my decesions in Fallout based on how I would react in RL. If I would help someone in RL, I will help them in game. If I would want to kill someone in RL i"ll kill them in game(no prison time,woot) To make decesions based solely on a good or bad path seems like cheating the experience to me.

I always think that became neutral would be cool for my character story, but somehow in the end I always help people. It seems I can't fool my own conscience, even if it is just a game

Beyond Good & Evil

In NV I completed a playthrough where I just killed everything that moved (was like the fourth or fifth run through the game). Was fun.

I tried the same in Skyrim...had to stop in the first village I encountered...

I tend to play a villain with good publicity, if possible. Make most people think of me as their friend until I get in too deep to hide what I am anymore, at which point I show my true colors, stab everyone in the back and take the money/power/whatever else of value for myself. Had a lot of fun doing it in New Vegas, managed to have shades of it in Fallout 3 - doing favors for Megaton citizens before nuking the town, working with the BoS and then kill-satting the Citadel, etc. I hope it will still be a viable option in FO4.

I can't help playing a good character, guess my up bringing paid off
