Reading these kind of things makes you think about the reletiveness of mental normality. I do not know why but i simply bursted a small giggle at the picture of a guy hanging from his toes - that isn't normal.

Plus if there would be a guy joining this topic now and saying that this is sick, and he is about to throw up, or has nightmares about it, HE will be the weird one..

I'm telling ya something ain't right in the head nowerdays,
But don't get me wrong!
Implementing all of this would be fun.

None of us should be saved when the cull comes.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

Oh, I think I would. I only enjoy digitized violence. In reality I'm writing a somewhat anti-war book right now. Violence against people is just some how interesting to most people though. Why do you think GTA sold so well.

Or Prototype.

Hell, Prototype encourages you to harm civilians.

Saint's Row 2 makes you an evil bastard, whether you like it or not.

In fact, I feel somewhat guilty discussing maiming innocent civilians in a game, since I'm usually the one who goes to the pussy good karmic side in an RPG. -_-

I vary on the good - evil part, but I'm always chaotic.
Chaotic is the fun part.
The rest of it just depends on what kind of fun you have.
I'd say slaughtering an entire dark fortress and leaving the demon the bleed out is a pretty good act, but definitely chaotic.
Lawful is no fun at all.
Ever.

Generally I'm chaotic good or neutral in real life. Same in most games, at least on the first play. In fallout for instance I usually never murder anyone except to get something (like the kneecapper). Here however, well, maybe because its the characters aren't as easy to ampathize with.

I revel in chaos and disorder.
I'm definitely chaotic good in real life.

I beg to differ, the SPANISH INQUISITION! was lawful evil (or lawful good, from their perspective).  ;D

And I'm sure they had plenty of fun.

The Spanish Inquisition (whom nobody expects) was lawful evil.
But they served the pope.

How do you get holy bullets?
Put them in the pope's mouthwash.

Aye, well, popes aren't always lawful (like Julius II, that warmongering psycho), or good (like Stephen).

But I'll grant that a dan mcninja knife eye attack is, in itself, terrifying and guarantees torture and vivisection (which is to say, your own).  ;D

Shouldn't that be !!Dan McNinja!!:D

As a side note I usually end up playing Lawful Good in video games where there's a morality system.

Except Dwarf Fortress.

Dwarf Fortress makes me do bad things to dwarves and animals.

I fixed it.

Anyways, I find lawful good to be 'orribly boring.
There's a massive lack of fun.
Besides, rules are made to be broken.

The imperium of man is lawful good and they're buckets of fun.

Yeah exactly!

It's possible to be so lawful good that you end up on the opposite end of the alignment spectrum.
