I don't know if this is addressed at all in the other thread, but what I wanted to ask is would the game be better if alignment wasn't present?
A few months ago I ran a game where the Dawnfather Church was usurped by members of the Strife Emperor Cult.
This had been ongoing for years and past unnoticed due to the influence of the gods was stymied by an event centuries past leaving them needing their followers worship more than its commonly known.
Anyway have you ever run games where the PCs eventually discover the various churches aren't exactly the alignment their god is supposed to be?
If this ever came up in your games how did you or your players react to such a reveal?
Prior to the game I mentioned above I was asked to convert a Ranger into a Cleric for a game, then had my dm mess up my character's back story when he couldn't recognise the potential of the game being run at a hamlet over a large city where heroes or mercenary troubleshooter's are more likely present.
Anyway I got a little into the character that I developed a faith for her, but I'm getting off topic how do you handle alignments in your game?
