Light and Dark?

The Order of the Unifying Force accepts both Light and Dark Jedi or do you have to be in the centre of your alignment? I plan to be a righteous Jedi!

I will be focusing on "lightside" powers with my Jedi, purely because I want him to be along the lines of a healer.

The Order does accept any gameplay style and class that supports the republic. If you could support the republic as a Sith Knight then we would allow them too.

Ah, okay, great. I never liked being Evil in anything, always made me feel like an asshole.

LOL.

Just to clarify, the guild is based on the theory that there is no Light and Dark sides to the force, there is only one big Force that all powers come from - it is how you use those powers that shows whether you are a good or a bad person.

We hope the game will allow for our ideology.

We believe that any force power can be used as long as it helps to bring peace and stability to the galaxy. Being a righteous jedi is fine as long as you are supporting the Republic and peace.

And that's exactly what I intend to do.

Or you can support the Republic and be peaceful by killing everyone that stands against the Republic, with all your force chokes, and lightnings..

It's for a good cause.. =)

But what if some ones playing style is thratening and killing people to get the job done. he is utter evil in that way but his ultimate job is a republic mission to secur safety in the galaxy. would that fit in ouf?

Yes, as anne said, do the ends justify the means?

What is the point in upholding peace and destroying the evil of the sith if we become chaotic and evil in the process?

Sometimes yes. If it costs one life to save billions perhaps it is.

However, if you sacrifice billions to save one, that is pretty much a gauranteed bad thing.

There are no set rules within the guild to determine what actions are justified. We should each strive to maintain our own personal morals in our own actions and try not to judge others when the lines they draw between good and bad deeds are different from our own.

If given the opportunity Ayntinnus is gonna be a meanie.
Only because I don't like being a light side protect everyone kinda guy. =P

As long as they're on the "good" side of the line that they draw?

Toranilor wrote:As long as they're on the "good" side of the line that they draw?

Yes, but you won't know where they draw the line when it comes to good and bad.

Some cases will be obvious like the one I mentioned but I am sure most cases will lie more in the 'grey moral area'.

I'm forced by tradition to have Toranilor as good-as-can-be, albeit a bit smelly sometimes. Althought i'm looking forward to making a trooper with essentially no morals, just a strong patriotic duty. MOW DOWN EVERYTHING!!....

I was thinking of taking up Gardening with my Jedi, saber toss hedge trimming service.....if there happen to be Imperial troops hiding in Said hedge, then so be it ;)

If you are taking up gardening then I might as well take the job of cooking with my jedi....you never know what meat I use in my cooking then, it will be a mystery

We can be sure of that it'll be fried every day of the week though?


OT: Being a "good guy in a bad place" does sound intresting. My alt would probably go that road, if it works out with the guild.

Let me tell you, as fry-cook, deep-fried flesh smells horrid and probably isn't going to create avid appetites.

......I burn myself, not cook people. Stop looking at me like that.

I can't log on to the main page, though I got the holonet to come up.

Lol I am sure that my..exotic cooking will create very healthy appetites, just take a look at Jeme's Kitchen

LOL omg.. that looks so... tasty!

So as long as we serve the republic, it's a thumbs up? but I assumed only jedi who follow the light side support the republic, doesn't that mean that there can't be an 'in-between' character per say :O

Figured as much, but in the end, it all depends on how the game mechanics turn out, if you cant use dark side powers while having a high light meter, than that's gonna be a problem >< but meh, till then... we can but wait and hope xD

I was just thinking that.
From some of the interviews and Demo reviews, I get the impression that Dark Side powers are going to be a limited to Dark players only; same goes with Light powers to Light. Or at least that's the fear I'm getting out of it.
