  Don’t worry, if you want to play games supporting an oppressive regime there is always 40k.

    Funny story:

    in Rogue Trader, you can take certain storyline choices that are Chaos, Imperial or “Demagogue”. Demagogue actions includes thing like “Don’t murder the tens of thousands of refugees, despite some of them being chaos worshippers and it being really fun to kill them all”

    However, players started noticing that playing the demagogue path gets you neither of the two powerful gear unlock paths, and started asking the devs “Hey, how come I don’t get rewards when I’m being a really Good guy?”, to which the devs replied “If you’re doing it for the rewards, you’re not really being good, are you now?”

      Playing the Rogue Trader CRPG made me realize how fucked up the Imperium really is.

      This has always been an opinion I’ve held for most RPGs. They almost always try to balance everything, and it makes it far less interesting. In my opinion they should play quite differently. The “good” play through should be the standard path most players will take, and it’s a balanced challenge with a mix of persuasion and combat. The evil playthrough should make you overpowered, but no one wants to cooperate with you. You can steal anything and kill anyone, but you’re going to have to fight for your win. Your combat skill is going to powerspike much higher and faster, but there won’t be an alternative to combat.

      I don’t know how you play city builders, but I try to maximize freedom, functionality, and happiness in my cities. Unless I am missing part of the picture

    But the sequels always make GDI victory canon :(

      Well, Tiberian Sun’s Nod ending is a story ender, what with the world altering missile. And Tiberium Wars switched to a sequential series of campaigns that are all canon, like Blizzard’s games.

      However, there is Twisted Insurrection, a mod for Tiberian Sun with a campaign that functions as a sequel to Tiberian Dawn’s Nod victory.

      It’s been a long time I haven’t played One Hour One Life, but when I left it, it was very well possible to get a weapon, maybe a horse and some armor, and devastate a peaceful thriving community.

      I loved that game. I only stopped because of the realities of being a full-time working dad.

    In monster train you lead the demons against the angels, but the angels are assholes about it. In MT2, angels and demons team up to fight against titans.
