To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?

sure the latter is more convenient, but only the man who did the former can answer this question

you should be ballin' straight from the womb

>>731363914
Why the fuck would I side with a bitch that demand I do things for her? Her role was to follow the dragonborn, not be a girl boss. The dragonborn drew blood to get that hideout and tries to create order. That whore couldn't even run an inn properly.

>>731363914
Is Skyrim worth a playtrhough without mods? I never really played it and I don't want to make an account on Nexus at it had multiple breaches and is petty enough to lock DL speeds behind premium.
>>
>>731363914
>Paarthurnax
I low key think he just wanted Alduin out of the picture because he doesn't want this kalpa to end and take advantage of Akatosh being short one tool that would end the world. It felt like a self preservation thing on top of seeing a future vacuum.

>no one else does shit or even bother trying to confort him
>want to break his fucking neck but they'd look at me like a freak while I'm sure grandma is poisoning him with advil
what is the point of being good again?
i want to end it for him and spare myself the goddamn pain but he's still alive and eating and drinking
>>
>>731363914
It's better for everyone else for you to be born good because then they don't have to deal with your dindu actions.
But for you yourself, it's better to be born evil and to overcome it so you are much wiser.
Here, it doesn't fucking matter because it is Delphine who is wrong and should be thrown off the nearest cliff.
>>
>>731364476

It's 100% this. Paarthurnax only switched sides when the literal Divines started supporting humanity against dragons.

In the end, if you keep him alive,he becomes the fucking ruler of all dragons like he wanted you to be and outright tells you to go murder any dragon that's against him.

He wins and retards go "B-but Delphine was mean to me + she's a woman (while they literally play a female dragonborn) so i hate her!"

It is better to not have been born at all. Everything else is just cope and wishful thinking.

I like this question because it baits /v/ into saying black people are in fact, capable of good.
>>
>>731364250
>Is Skyrim worth a playtrhough without mods?
Depends. It's very shallow game have most barebones combat system (click left to atack, hold for big attack right to block), magic sucks, all npcs have no personality, game consist mostly of fetchquests, main storyline sucks, there is no rpg elements etc. You can became archmage and leader of mages collage without knowing any real spells playing as warrior, you can join and became guildmaster for thieves guild despite having 0 thieving skills. There is civil war and there is no diference if you help one side win or war still rages on because nothing changes, you can kill The Emperor(in middle of civil war) and game world don't react to it, you are promised hero and you can kill world ending threat but nobody cares.
Only thing that skyrim does good it looked ok(for 2011 standards) had soulfull music(that did all heavy lifting in game) and it was fun if you turned your brain off and just treated it like theme park and just chaised objective markers across the map.
>>
>>731364058
Its a fucking retarded question. How are you more good if you killed a thousand people than if you just didn't do that?
>hurr but da dragons can't help killing people dey just quirky like dat
Good argument to exterminate them.

Anon putting down that dog in that scenario would be better than whatever the fuck you're doing. Stop confusing social acceptance with morality.
>>
>>731363914
>overcome your evil nature through great effort?
This is better but completely impossible IRL, brains are hardcoded
>>
>>731365165
>brains are hardcoded
If you believe this there's literally no point in even discussing morality, or anything else, since actions are completely deterministic at that point.

he's not asking who is "more good", he's asking what's better

Look into personality disorders

>>731364816
I'm the one who sits next to him for half an hour to make sure he's alright. Scratch the patches of dry skin because he's too old and can't reach for it on his back. Give him water because they're too retarded to understand he cries because he needs something. I'm not even sure if he knows where he is when he cries and doesn't want water or didn't piss himself. He just doesn't want to be alone. I used to be the only one who walked him when I was a kid. Words couldn't describe how pissed off I was at my brother for getting on me because he was sick and I wasn't doing anything about it. Motherfucker, you're the one who named him and wanted to keep him and then didn't walk him for over ten fucking years, you piece of shit. And then you went and got yourself another dog. Some fucking good guy you're supposed to be.
>>731365120
it would probably be the best thing for him at this point
why do you think i'm wondering about ending things for him myself?

but how the fuck do you think anyone's going to look at me for doing it?
whether i go caveman or arrange for the euthenasia by a vet myself, these faggots just don't care enough to think about it but are attached enough to the point they're willing to have him like this for as many years until he finally dies

i'm the only one who ever fucking took care of him because no one else would
>>
>>731365302
... better LITERALLY means more good you stupid idiot

Biology is biology mate, mind over matter is a midwit take.

You can't be born 'good' only born harmless.
>>
>>731365418
I don't understand what you are confused about

You deserve a hug

>>731365407

What a failure of character you are.

>>731365450
Biology does not suggest people's decisions are predetermined or that people's natural tendencies are unalterable. You just made that up.
>>
>>731364759
Paarthunax knows I could easily skin him alive and wear his head as a hat and treats me with respect
Delphine doesn't seem to know I could ulfric stormcloak her ass and disintegrate her with one word and acts like she's the man
It's not that complicated

NTA but it literally does. see >>731365317

>>731365418
ok now reread this sentence again
>he's not asking who is "more good", he's asking what's better
>>
>>731365601
No it doesn't. That isn't what a personality disorder is and if you asked anyone who works in any field of human mental or neural science if human beings acted deterministically they'd look at you like a fucking space alien.
The entire modern paradigm we live in relies on heavy investment into social engineering, or nurturing people into specific behavior patterns en masse.
You're a retard.
>>
>>731365752
Lol
>>
>>731363914
To be born good.

If you spent your life raping people and, after an epiphany, realised rape is bad, it shouldn't be praised that you are doing the bare minimum. If anything, the fact that you could start raping at any moment tells me you're still a danger and should be killed.
>>
>>731365560
>What a failure of character you are.
when you're stuck with people who you hate
who say they'd kill themselves if they ever saw things the way you do but insist they never did or said anything to hurt you
who constantly insert drama into your life you can't get away from because you never had any goddamn fucking money you can ride you fucking high horse all you goddamn want
>>731365543
it doesn't change anything
i'd cut off one of my fingers to make all of this stop and get the life i want
if getting rid of one person would accomplish all that, i'd do it in a heartbeat without any second thought

>human behavior is entirely deterministic
>that's why advanced countries spend a morbillion dollars on subsidizing primary, secondary and post-secondary education
>that's why early childhood nutrition is one of the major determinants of adult IQ which we have been able to dramatically raise worldwide in the last 1-2 centuries
You might be the dumbest fucker alive ngl
>>
>>731365582
>and treats me with respect

Treats you with respect? You talk with him 2 times in the entire game, he's old, bored and you're literally the dragonborn who can absorb his soul and foil his plan. He needs to wait for you ti die off to take over the world.

>Delphine doesn't seem to know I could ulfric stormcloak her ass

Lmao you're pathetic. You whine about characters being mean to you and talk about killing anyone who treats you like Delphine but you side with the Empire who tried to chop your head?

Kill yourself loser.
>>
>>731365897
>i'd cut off one of my fingers to make all of this stop
But you wouldn't take a clearly dying animal to the vet to be euthanized because the people you live with would bitch too much?

I'm not going to bother arguing with you or your strawman arguments, you'll be happier if you stay ignorant anyway
>>
>>731366087
reading comprehension
get it
>>
>>731366105
Those aren't strawmen they're direct refutations of your argument. I'm not attributing them to you, they're counterexamples.
Your brain might be hardcoded to dumbass but stop projecting it on the rest of us.
>>
>>731366193
>human behavior is entirely deterministic
>>
>>731366235
>brains are hardcoded
"no they're not, the entire modern world revolves around nudging people to act against their nature"
>I NEVER SAID PEOPLE COULDN'T CHANGE THEIR NATURE ITS NOT LIKE BRAINS ARE HARDCODED OR ANYTHING I NEVER SAID THAT
Wriggle harder on that pin, maggot.
>>
>>731363914
Better in what way? It obviously takes more effort, but both are equally good for the world since they're both good.
>>
Nobody is born good. If you were always good that just means you worked even harder, since you never succumbed to human weakness and temptation, unlike your peers.
>>
>>731366369
Not all of humanity has a brain that is completely unmalleable but the people who knowingly preform acts of great evil are definitely hardcoded. Why are you so riled up?
>>
>>731366461
People are corrupted when they're so small they have no real chance to do anything about it, a child who gets mistreated are far more likely to become a bad person and then they have to recover from that. And it takes far more effort than being born into a good family where you get a good start in life.
>>
>>731366461

It's really not hard to not kill or steal anon, i don't know what to tell you. Get help.
>>
>>731366051
Bro you're unhinged what the fuck
>>
sex with whatever the fuck that is
>>
>>731367091
> REEE I HATE DELPHINE BECAUSE SHE WAS MEAN TO ME REEE!!
>> ha! i killed that bitch Ulfric! HA! So what if the empire hates me and tried to behead me i love sucking cock of those who want to kill me <3

You're pathetic lmao. You only kill women who are mean to you but men who try to behead you are ok?
>>
>>731367348
???
I meant by "ulfric stormcloaking" her ass I would do the same thing he did to Thorygg..
>>
>>731363914
The "chosen one" vs cultivation. This is why the Chinese are so based and have one of the longest standing countries in history. Xianxia influences young men to grind and earn things, as opposed to American media heavily relying on the trope of the mc being born special.

I would bet money some of your family have BPD or NPD
