    It depends how dickish

    Being a petulant man-child who screws up lives for the fun of it or a crazy baby-eater is too dickish

    Just humiliating and/or murdering people who deserve it? That's more like it

    If I get something out of it beyond "hahah I'm such a dick", then that's how far my dick will extend.


    ...wait

    I really liked Jade Empire.

    Every choice I made was open palm.

    I was kung fu jesus.

    I can never play a dick in a role playing game.

    I always like to be the soft spoken, hard choices, man of heroism.

    It's like, I know I can be a dick in this game and it would be fun, but I think given the power of choice, I choose to be the good guy.

    One of the greatest games to be a dick in was Vampire: Bloodlines.

    Bloodlines was so goddamned cool

    It's just that it sometimes had a lot of crap to wade through to get at the cool

    I wonder if it's significant that I feel the same way about Dark Messiah, which was another Source title

    Oh shit yes, one of the few I ever played a total jerk in.

    I wasn't totally bad but I did some things.



    Dragon Age is hard sometimes because it's not always obvious which option is truly the greatest good.

    But I like being a city elf, saving the girls was good times.

    All I'm saying is that sometimes there are bad people and they don't deserve to live in my video games.
    Sometimes they killed people, sometimes they screwed me over but the thing that they all have in common is that they got on my bad side and are now dead.
    In the game that is.

    So I should probably try to play through ME1, huh?

    I only got to the planet with the lava stuff, almost made it to the end but then I died and the last autosave was at the start of the fucking level.

    So I put it down and now I haven't played it in like... a year? I'm terrible.

    I didn't play through ME1 all the way, I just overheard some story stuff from people and I still couldn't put ME2 down once I got my teeth into it.

    Yeah, I'd love to have a Bloodlines 2.

    You'd think it'd be an easy sell given how popular vampires are right now.

    Playing through ME1 can potentially give you a more pleasant world in ME2, depending on what you do, plus depending on how high you level in the first game you will get varying levels of experience and financial bonuses starting out in the second game.

    Never really played oWoD

    I love parts of nWoD like Mage but even if it was nWoD it's an MMO which is not for me

    But yeah I don't think it will be any good even if I did go for MMOs

    reporter punch 2 is a lot better although the conversation has more satisfying options then punching her

    With Kinect you get to use the voice recognition

    I'm going to do another renegade playthrough of ME1

    but right at the end i'll uncharacteristically save the council. This will be in the hopes that ME3 will then give me the opportunity to be even more of a dick than simply watching them die

    my first time i saved the council. however none of my reasons for doing so ever came to anything. figured the big ship would be handy in the big space battle, and that the council will love me forever. In the end it barely even mattered.

    I think you'll see that decision come back in your favor in ME3. The Asari won't forget and that giant ship will help out.
