Most satisfying game to play as a 'Good Guy'?

[Zuluf]

I always make the choices that I myself would make in the given situation. I don't give a shit whether the game decides to call my actions "good" or "evil." This way seems to get the most out of RPGs for me, especially if there are tough moral dilemmas where the right option isn't always obvious.

This is easy. KOTOR 2 Light Side. You know you've done it *right* when Kreia gave that lecture to the deluded Jedi Masters in Dantooine before killing them instantly.

Agreed. I also like how she made you feel like a dumb brute for most Dark Side actions. Or a pansy for alot of Light Side ones. Pretty good reflection on how designers make alignments in RPG's actually.

Sometimes I compromise what I would do morally in a game out of strategy. It made me feel like shit in Arcanum when my dwarf companion became my sworn enemy and was killed because I didn't choose to fight with him against the P. and Sons and their use of misshapen dwarves. Despite the fact that I've got a big issue with desecration of the dead.

That's really the only time a game affected me personally. And that was recently as I was playing Arcanum.
