Kommodore Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) Is this a joke? Do you realize your existence is linear and whatever comes after is inconsequential? With that in mind, have you tried playing a Jedi Knight? The bubble-gum chewing blind and all-too child like motives and responses make me sick. What are you affecting by being a Jedi? Your immediate future? My favorite response was the one who said that they wouldn't want to be because they looked diseased. WHAT? lol... There's a lot more to life than following a blind cult with some bizarre views on how you should behave. Deny emotion? Not going to happen. Because, I happen to be Human. Yes, I would be a Sith. No question about it. Edited December 28, 2011 by Kommodore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajahkhan Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 It's fascinating how many people in this thread are rationalizing how dominating others through fear and power is a good thing because it brings 'order' or 'freedom'. Or how making emotional responses are better than reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterforge Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) In reality? I'd probably stay neutral or join the Republic. In the game? Sith all the way, so much more fun to be evil in a fantasy/sci-fi setting. I am not, nor would I choose to be, evil in real life. So I choose to be evil in a game to let that side "out to play" so to speak. That being said, would also depend on where I was born. North Koreans didn't choose to be North Koreans, they were born there. And they are not bad people, just their government is. Germans were not bad people in WW2, the Nazi party was. If you lived in Germany, you had to go along with it or face the consequences (likely death). So if I was born on Korriban I'd probably be Sith. What choice would I have unless I'd rather die?

ageofconan Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) Would anyone really join the Sith? If you think about it. The way their government works isn't that much different from North Korea or Nazi Germany, and their religious values closely resemble a stereotypical form of Satanism.

TonyJP Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I couldn't tell you to be honest! I always think to myself "Yeah! I'd be so ******!" but even when I try to be ****** in-game, I have a little voice saying "Choose the Light Side choice!" so I really don't know!

Villainous_Muse Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Honestly said if I really examined my personality... If born in to the jedi I would start with great intentions and I believe in helping out the little guy and communal sense of respect and obligation. I'm a great person to be around with humor and social ease being my best armaments over my lightsaber and am able to quell silly arguments with basic logic from a stand point between two people that they couldn't see until I pointed it out. Having force powers would only amplify this as I could easily mind trick weaker willed folks in to simply not being so silly over something so mundane as the colour of their speeder and would have the training to remain calm when things aren't going my way or the way that things were planned. On the flip side of that coin, I have a very strong personality and a very volatile temper when the right fuse is lit. Prone to frustration when things seem to be conspiring against me to make my day more difficult, this would pave the way to being a sith with my good intentions mixed with my burning anger for other things like the way the government is run where I'm from or how certain parties take advantage of social assistance and stuff like that. In the end I think it would be a battle of light and dark for me and which side would win, I dunno, depends entirely on my friends I suppose.

BrigOrion Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Our current, real-life republic is an utter failure. I'm already a monarchist IRL, and would certainly support overthrowing the congress and starting from scratch. Yes, I would be a Sith. America -- the American myth -- is over. You could move to England. They have a monarchy. We gave their monarch the finger 235 years ago, but you can go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played Empire side in TOR, and the devs don't get it. The Empire in TOR is a laugh. 'Evil' people do not think they are evil.

Durstilla Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Well that depends if I was powerful and could reach a high rank in the sith then EMPIRE ALL THE WAY! If I wasn't force sensitive I would choose the republic....yay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original_Peace Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I went to one of the major service academies. When I was there They basically taught and most believe there will always be bad guys and a need for some war (which is not really true). But teaching the need to always have some war = peace is lie. Just worded slightly different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malchiro Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 (edited) ya the evil republicans you know the guys who think people should work for a living and earn what they got instead of relying on the GOV to supply stuff for them. your also talking about the people who give THERE OWN money personaly to charitys while the pther party likes to STEAL every last cent they can from people so they can give it to members of there own party to vote for them so one party in America makes most of the money while one Steals most of the money i wonder wich is the evil party???????

Daederik Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 The SW Universe is really created with such extremes of "good and evil" that it can't translate to real life (human nature won't allow it, because I think we'd all agree we're a bit of that loverly shade of grey) BUT, I'll play the game . Yes I would probably be Sith. I live in the UK right now, so clearly that would be a Sith governed country. I find with the Sith, if you're in the heart of them your best bet is to either Become Sith, and go with the system. or **** Not all of the Sith are flat out monsters, so I could probably exist with them just fine . Certainly have a more optimistic future then trying to be a part of some Republic underground movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
