[QUOTE="JLXC, post: 4013554, member: 2663"] I guess I'm the huge exception here, I LOVE the alignment system for D&D and I'm very sad they decided to go this route. To me, it's nice to think somewhere in the multiverse your actions, for good or evil, lawful or chaotic, have an absolute nature to them. We're dealing with world full of Gods, and angels, and Demons, where Evil is real and so is Good. The planes had alignments, and while a player may have NG written on his sheet, as the DM I've always kept track of their real alignment. I like that Evil stains your sick soul, and that Detect Evil can work. Our world of shades of gray is just not as appealing. Sorry. To know some super evil jerk looks just like everyone else and not even the "Gods" powers or magic can help you figure it out sucks. I know many people live a shades of gray lifestyle, I don't. I like the concepts of good and evil especially. So I'm just sad to see this go, but since I'm waiting until 4e comes out, and seeing more info anyways, and I'm already biased against it, it's just another nail in the coffin to me. I like absolute judgement, and I'm not even religious IRL, go figure. [/QUOTE]
