I still believe the choices you make in a game that you immerse yourself into are the results of your own choosing. Most likely some repressed thoughts you have in IRL. Knowing full well that you can't let yourself do these things in society, so, you do them in a game.
Didn't say that, didn't suggest that, didn't even think that. Don't put words in my mouth please.
Policing thought crime is a dangerous road. Personally I don't play as evil guy, I'm too empathetic and feel genuine distress when fake people in video games have bad things happen to them. If I couldn't do it (morally or ethically speaking) irl I'm not doing it in a game, but not everyone's brain works the same way.I still believe the choices you make in a game that you immerse yourself into are the results of your own choosing.

But you believe as you wish. A game is a game, play it how you want. Repressed feelings or not.
I am not against redemption arc but i simply don't see those as deserving of any. Because they don't see anything wrong with all they have done.
JK i obviously have a brain so not gonna do that.
I kill thousands of sentients all the time in games like Stellaris, or I pick up a gun and shoot people in ww2. I have no desire to do these things in real life. Nor would I treat people like dark guy does .
So... if I had multiple playthroughs with both a Good MC and a Bad MC, does that mean I have a split personality? Or that I'm caught in a time loop?I still believe the choices you make in a game that you immerse yourself into are the results of your own choosing.

But that's my whole point - redemption isn't something you earn by being sympathetic, it's something you achieve if and when you are finally willing to acknowledge the error of your ways. Redemption's not a reward for good behavior. It *IS* the good behavior. You might become more sympathetic after achieving it, but that's effect, not cause.
He really is a reading enthusiast. He is blind as a bat without his glasses but still reading regardless. Perfect.
Ah, yes ... the duality of man.
In these times when the thread is in incoherent chaos, you always come to us and drop those fire renders.
I think you got caught in the crossfire, while I was baiting others. My condolences.
What?

It's possible a player's choices in a game could perhaps say something about their mindset if you squint hard enough, but in practice I think the noise would drown out the signal. Sure, a fascination with dark content might stem from dark impulses. But then again it might stem purely from curiosity or a cathartic desire to see such behavior punished in the end. At the end of the day no one is actually getting hurt from our actions in the game so it's not in any way comparable to real life.
Personally I haven't even enabled Taboo content on my saves, but I still think it would be a good thing if the MC faced harsh consequences for his actions on the dark path - especially when he's unrepentant and stupid about it.
It was just a bit of fun. Carry on and play the game the way you guys want. I'm just more like Joshy92. I rarely play the bad guy and sometimes it's just fun to tease the people who do.
In a game with forced sex having a character to despise isnt a bad thing dont you think? I like her love path too but the dark one takes the cake

Most people here either like Nikki or are okay with her character.
Yea, by the time I started looking at the thread more most of them were already gone. At this point, I'm starting to get tired of the people who don't like the people who hate Nicki. LOL. I don't care. It may have given Neon some initial setbacks but that hasn't stopped him so I feel like we're just beating a dead horse now.
