I chose LS, this is Star Wars afterall. DS suffered from "assholicus supremus", there were simply no honor in it.

Well, the responses have been pretty much in favor of darkside, but I voted lightside.

 

I think the poll is unfair to the darkside, however. My gut instinct is that most neutral players will vote lightside rather than darkside. If that's true, then darkside will probably lose. However, if lightside has to split its votes, then darkside has a decent chance of winning.

 

Of course, the relatively small sampling of folks makes it anyone's game. I suspect that most gamers overall would prefer the lightside, but that's just a guess.

 

Even if there had been a "grey side" option, I would have voted for the lightside.

Im gonna say Dark I mean yea it was ok being a Prodigal Knight but just seeing all them Sith bow down too meh was just awesome lol plus Darkside had it better anyways. And plz Obsidian when it comes down to making the ending movies plz try to get it over 20 seconds lol cuz the ending movies were way too short ehh. But yea Dark was awesome expecially for someone like me who tends to like the good guys all the time.

Amen.

 

I was kinda irritated by the Jedi in KOTOR (i found their ideology unsufferable), but being a Sith was the equivalent of acting like a 13 years old spoiled brad, no thank you...

Well, if Obsidian does the dark side really well, I'm going to give it a shot. I'll still prefer lightside, but darkside could be cool, if...

I like starting out Light Side, thus making the story make sense, before being so overcome with the revelation about my true background that I fall to the Dark Side on Korriban.

 

It just feels too ridiculous when I'm a Dark Sider, have veins popping up all over my forehead, and the Jedi council STILL sends me on the quest.

I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you

But I get the feeling that you don't like it

What's with all the screaming?

You like monkeys, you like ponies

Maybe you don't like monsters so much

Maybe I used too many monkeys

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

DS was just pathetically easy and trite. LS was more challenging, more fulfilling and ultimately more true to Star Wars.

I'm really a big softy at heart and the game was too immersive for me to choose anything else than the Light Side.

 

I don't get any satisfaction out of playing a DS character, but then again that might be because many of the "evil" dialogue options in KOTOR were outright lame. Do I really have to behave like some kind of small-time pathetic thug to be a darksider? If so, I'll pass thank you.

 

I want to see a more subtle approach to evil in KOTOR II.

I think the devs should watch the first three movies (4,5 and 6)

 

Darth Vader gives a good example of how an "evil" character should act.

Agreed, no more "I'm Darth ----, bow before me! or "Give me all your credits or I'll kill you!" dialogue options...

 

Please?

Exactly. Darth Vader didn't have to kick puppies to show he was The Man.

 

Honestly, they even said it in game, on Korriban:

 

"I don't know why so many people seem to think 'Dark Side' and 'Hooligan' are the same thing."

The Dark Side suffered a bit too much from the "haha I stole your your children's lunch money, omg lol!" syndrome. Hopefully this will be a bit different in TSL.

 

Anyway, played LS meself. Or rather "grey", since my Jedi was quite unstable and impatient. Some good acts, some evil ones, you get the idea. Still, it went OK in the end, and my little jediz0rz ended up as a quite devoted LSer.

 

Second playthrough was pure LS, though...

What's funny is I'm not fat. In fact, I'm skinny. Though I am as healthy as cna be. Outside of being very ugly, and the common cold once in the blue moon I simply don't get sick."

I always used to play cliche good guy in all games. Just recently i played kotor with an evil character and i felt myself slipping to the dark side in real life as well. Now i can't even imagine returning to the old times and with high possibility, my all future characters will be somehow evil ;)
