If given the option do you generally play as a good, evil, or neutral character?

I always find myself being a do-gooder and choosing the positive choices in games, what about you? I just couldn't pull myself to make Commander Shepard be a dick.

Same...

I want so bad to be evil, but I can't. I always have to be the good guy.

Catherine, Fable, etc.

Lawful or Chaotic neutral.

Good. I've honestly wondered why I have zero interest to do bad.

Good. Always good.

And when I make evil characters, I get upset with myself when I do evil things and end up neutral because I try to convert too late.

Bad to the bone. We should list some moral quandaries that make you think.

If I do anything evil in a game I get a really guilty feeling and hate myself for it, especially if it has to do with hurting domesticated animals.

You find a stray puppy. No tags or chip. You take it home, care for it, and form a bond with it.

Three weeks later, you see flyers around your neighborhood for the puppy. What do you do?

The Fallout series definitely provides some choices that are evil and make you wish you hadn't done them. I remember when I destroyed Megaton I felt terrible and was glad to revert to a previously saved game although I lost a ton of work.

Only thing that bothers me about being evil is that you generally get the shite ending.

I have no qualms about being an evil prick aside from that.

Video games = escapism. No need for morality here.

In the mass effect series I generally play as a good guy. In fable I am a terrible person.

The games themselves are biased. They kind of push you towards being the good guy by giving you more incentives for decency. It's not real life, I should be able to cut off a dude's fingers till he gives me the pass code to the armory.

Yeah I feel like I'm the bad guy cause I chose the easiest routes which usually involve collateral damage of some kind, but that is better than doing more work to save people.

I start out neutral to neutral good, and tend towards the good side unless someone really needs an arse kicking.

Same here.

Take a game like gta. I kill everyone. Mission related or not. I kill hoes after sex. I rob everyone.

Morals? Its a game.
