I must admit I am surprised to see Stalker received so many votes. I could have sworn the plot was designed for you to feel sympathetic towards the rebels.

I had that problem until I stopped playing it.

One last point of info is that I usually prefer party-based games to individual solo games. I took a quick look at Geneforge and it seems to be a solo rather than party based.

As far as unblockability goes, I prefer kill_char(), preferably with a value of 1000. :P

So my question is, will that actually pop up in the game anyhow, or was it just an easter egg STR# back in the day?

Even ignoring the subjective nature of harm, I find your morality of 'do anything except harmful things' little different than the RCC's morality of 'do anything but this list of naugty things'. It tells you what not to do, but nothing else.

Um... I'm not really sure whether you're being sarcastic or truthful here. If you're being sarcastic, it's a bit of a strawman (I think I fixed my own strawman a bit in the revised essay, by the way. Tell me what you think.), and you alternately support and contradict my position throughout. If you're serious, then I'm going to give you the benefit of a doubt and assume you're daft.

Seriously? See, a lot of people say this, and I have never used the right mouse button, EVER. Mainly because the left one only moves me forward one space.

EDIT: About swearing: If everyone swore all the time without anyone being offended, the words would lose their power. Eventually, the entire notion of a word being offensive for no reason would fade away, and it would no longer harm anyone.

This has the added benefit that people would be forced to use words with actual meaning to describe things. Instead of "He's so F-wording huge," they'd have to say "He's so huge that it's astounding that the planets don't revolve around him." More descriptive, right?
