People change, people do stupid things, I let them live with their mistakes, I find it a lot more interesting for story line options if they aren't epic heroes who don't ever misstep socially, I try to never intercede in player actions with a "you can't do that" unless they clearly can't do that, from a standpoint of their character being physically restrained or some such thing. So yeah, murder, rape, arson, slavery, prostitution, poverty, desperation and such all exist in my games, though my game worlds are far from dystopian. Despite how the previous sentences mashed together in an abyss of sadness.</p></blockquote><p></p>
