Snattlerake Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Playing a SI and most of my dark side missions help the Republic and light side missions help the Empire... Am I missing something, or is that just wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenXCub Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Like a lot of MMO storylines, I don't think they wanted the spaghetti-western Black and White of the SW Canon to interfere, and made the 2 factions more like political parties (WoW Horde isn't evil, WoW alliance isn't virtuous. Same in Rift, though it was more of a Science vs. Faith division). If you're looking at Empire/Republic more as "your side" vs. "their side" more than Evil vs. Good, Dark vs. Light, you could say that doing the right thing for your team is Light, and betrayal is dark. As someone who usually chooses light side quest options on the Empire, you frequently double-cross your employer for no really good reason, but you get LS points because you delay your murder-spree until the next quest. It's those types of choices I understand less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
