Evil often gets shit for being the alignment that misses out on content/rewards, but this just shows that EvilGODS are experienced gamers that don't need free handouts to beat a game, while goodNIGGERS are casuals who need crutches to beat even the easiest encounters.Evil just makes sense when you're old enough to appreciate a real challenge instead of having the system (glassy-eyed 50+ HR ladies) pat you on the head for being a professional cuckold.
>>737618736People too stupid to play chaotic good and people too pussy to play lawful evil.
>>737619118Games rarely let you play as evil deceitful character.Pretending to go along with someone just to stab them in the back is the peak evil.No remorse, just pure self interest.Evil trickster is also great archetype, giving people what they ask for without them realizing the consequences until it's too late.
>>737618658>>737618736he mean and he kill bandit
>barbarian>lawful evildoesn't click for me
>>737619830Personal code of honour, maybe? He pillages, rapes and murders, but only against enemies of his tribe, and he always makes sure to pay taxes to the chieftain.
>>737619508To be fair to developers, it's probably insanely difficult to account for various "flavors" of evils (or good) when you're trying to write dialogue. I recently replayed through BG1/2 as a lawful evil thief/cleric as a selfish mercenary with self-doubts, but frequently found myself hobbled, especially in BG2, by the dialogue just not expressing that in any capacity. I don't blame the writer for that, because how the hell would he know what I want? I think it's just an inherent problem of player intention vs. game limitations, at some point you have to draw lines in the sand to outline a character, even in open-ended games.It's partially why I found myself preferring BG1 despite how comparatively shallow it is in player/companion development. At some point it's just better to leave it to player interpretation than try to write a variety of dialogue options to reflect whatever a player might be thinking their character might be like.
>>737618754HAD
>>737620024That's because there are nearly infinite flavors of evil and only a couple or one flavor of good.Only way to fully realize the potential is by playing pen and paper.Dialogue alone would sprawl for hours for each time you would want to say something. That's not a great experience.
>>737613248>Human male>old as fuck>wizard>chaotic neutralMischief and whimsy ahead
>>737619959You'd be surprised how 'organized crime' operates.
>>737613248>Human male>Champion of the light>Big hammer, big shield, heavy armor>Lawful goodThe paladin has been my favourite archtype to play in the recent years, absolute blast engulfing demons in pillars of light and just bonking the shit out of em
>>737621939You should play Icewind Dale 1, the paladin specific dialogue is absolutely kino
>bald male human>large build>some sort of authority figure>lawful neutralI will be judge, jury and exocutiner.

>>737622476also has my favorite weapon in any video game, which is paladin onlysadly I think EE ruins the impact of it a little bit, but haven't confirmed it yetI think EE misunderstood the core concept and changed the weapon icon to something special, haven't played that far in EE so don't know for sure, but from googling it looks different
>>737613248Will we ever see a return to Sword & Sorcery in media?
>>737623378you always have Skyrim :-)
>>737613248Lawful evil warriors are only cool when their power wildly outstrips the people they mean to subjugate. They're way better as dominating villains than as underdog heroes. Barbarian heroes should be closer to chaotic neutral, like Conan the barbarian.
>>737623180I think the EE's in general for the IE games sort of fucked up by applying later rulesets to the earlier games most kits basically break them over the knee.
>>737618559Say that again.

>>737615056>>Sexy goth concubine vampire gfI finally understand the appeal of being evil

>>737613248I prefer heroic knights. They're the coolest.
>>737618380For me, it was the mist caller hydra. The ultimate answer to the Blueish Question
>>737613248>human male>warrior/barbarianOh, just another "white fighter human gaming time" pos->lawful evilAh, I see. You are a cultured man. A man of strength holding firm what he deserves, rather than a man who slaves himself to the weak.
>Goblin>Goblin build>Goblin stabby class>Goblin morality You gon get shanked
>>737626226Nok nok chads raise up
>>737626127What games let you actually play that power fantasy though? Original god of war games maybe? Most games put the player in the position of an underdog that needs to build their strength. A lawful evil warrior isn't cool when he needs to struggle and isnt an absolute unit or force of nature.
>>737626761Play Tyranny and side with the legion rather than the horde. But unfortunately, it is so rare to have games where the PC is evil. The few games that let you "be evil" seem like after thoughts where the game treats you the same either way aside from an ending and a few dialogue choices.
>>737626226GONNA STAB 'EM!
>>737616281Just say you love tranny cock
>>737613248>barbarian>lawful
Game where you can play as a twink barbarian when?
I never liked STR build, for me it's the most basic, boring and low IQ build of them all. Even when I play as a STR build I always nerf myself, for example doesn't level up my HP or doesn't wear any armor.
>Human male>big and strong>artificer>Lawful evil (racist)Its gamer time
>>737628510A savage warrior who adheres to the ancient traditions and laws of his tribes and has a personal warrior code isn't that much of a stretch.
>>737624017Blood Omen AND Soul Reaver
>>737630748I get what you're saying, but that anon is right that "barbarian" is seen as savage and chaotic. Lawful-Evil is usually seen as Tyranny and Structured. It'd be like the whole, "good lich". Sure, I guess it's possible, but it's kinda antithetical.You can be a primitive fighter without being a barbarian.
>>737628510>>737631739Historically, most cultures considered barbaric (and even those in the modern day) are much more lawful than chaotic.For instance Tacitus admires the Germanic peoples' strict adherence to their laws and code of honor. These are THE fundamental basis of the barbarian in western media, and the chief work on their tribes and culture definitively depicts them as lawful.Take the Vandals for instance, their name to this day denotes an act of senseless barbarism. The first thing they did on conquering Roman territory was to crucify Romans who engaged in sodomy and other breaches of the Christian faith. Even their sack of Rome was not a senseless violent act, but a calculated move with legal backing as restitution for the Roman's breach of contract. (They had promised a political marriage to the King of the Vandals, then reneged on it). During the looting the Vandals adhered to the Pope's plea not to use violence on those who did not resist, and not to burn the city.Even their conquest of Roman territory was performed after again, the Romans reneged on a treaty. Nearly every act of their violence was directly a response to Roman (chaotic) contract violation.tl;dr D&D is utterly wrong, barbarians were NOT chaotic, and adhered more strongly to law than civilized peoples.
>>737631739Not that anon but hard disagree. Under the DnD base rules, sure, but a lawful barbarian isnt that insane of a concept. Consider real life examples like Ghengis Khan and Arminius that organized loose scattered low tech tribal peoples into fighting forces through complex rules and tributary systems. They might still totally burn down a castle and enslave all the women but only if it serves a purpose like warning others or in retaliation for a previous slight - not battlerage.
>>737632527Shiiieet dis nigga ackshually'd faster than me>>737632506Brb committing seppuku
>>737628520Dragon's Dogma 2 let's your twink dress quite scandalous.
>>737632506>>737632527I see what you're saying. I would even call the Aztecs a text book Lawful Evil faction.But I had assumed we are talking about fantasy. Usually when using Alignments, we are implying vidya or tabletop logic.And all depictions of Barbarians as a class in these setting is the mindless savage that acts on rage and instict rather than law and duty.The factions you listed, if they were in a fantasy setting, wouldn't be "barbarians" they would be lvl 1-8 fighters or clerics.
>>737633657That is because what fantasy calls a barbarian, reality calls an outlaw.
>>737613248Pretty sure D&D rules specifically prohibit Barbarians from being Lawful. Maybe 5E changed this, 5E made lots of things dumber.
>>737633849he's running myfarog it's ok
>>737633756I thought that was just what Greeks called people who didn't speak Greek.
>>737634201To them the sounds non-Greeks made was "bar-bar-bar" so they labeled them barbarians.
>>737634201Yes, that's right. Meanwhile someone who doesn't live in society and doesn't care about the rules and expectations of societies is an outlaw.
>>737633849From AD&D1e to 3rd/3.5 Edition, Barbarians had to use non-lawful alignments.
>tfw played a half-elf/half-merfolk Sorcerer/Fighter who used fist weapons, leg weapons, touch spells, and lots of self-buff spells to be a whirling dervish of slaughter, along with being able to switch between merfolk and humanoid form
>>737634408>>737633756Not really, if we're being pedantic. ''Outlaw'' (before the meaning changed with the American West) comes from the vikings. It essentially means you're no longer legally a person. Someone could beat an outlaw to death in the street and suffer no consequences. Being labelled an outlaw is closer to being an exile, rather than a bandit or what you're referring to>>737633657There's sagas about viking kings going into a berserker rage during their last stand. While I understand that barbarians are rarely lawful, I can see them being that in some instances
>>737636790Yes really.>outlaw means outlawYes. Which is what a D&D barbarian is. The only difference is for some reason D&D societies tolerate their existence. One became an outlaw by get this, disregarding the laws and social norms of society. You were outside the law, and now no longer legally entitled to its protections.

>dysgenic, unimaginative browns can't imagine a barbarian being lawful evil
>>737637540Yes, nigga, you LITERALLY cannot be Lawful as a Barbarian in all the editions that matter
>>737615056
>>737638008And you can't rotate an apple in your head so why should I take anything you say or think seriously in any context?
>>737638326I'm confused as to what you're trying to argue. The game itself will not allow you to do it, therefore I'm stupid?
>>737636924I disagree that not having rights is a part of being a barbarian. I looked up their early dnd descriptions and it does say they hate cities and civilization, but I don't take that to mean they're outlaws. Also, I guess it depends on if you extend the idea of outlawness to the tribal community he can be a part of. If he can't even be a part of a tribe, then he's definitely not an outlaw as a rule
>>737628510hytnpdnd>>737613248any games for "evil but honorable conqueror" vibes? I mean the ones where you kill and pillage but not conspire and decive
>>737638326I may not know shit about apples but I can rotate ur mum on my weiner
>>737638468Who said a specific game? Why are you even letting others constrain you with rules? See this is the point I'm getting at. Please for your bloodline's sake GET the point.
>>737638657Right, they aren't in their setting. In reality, that kind of person was 100% an outlaw.
>>737613248>elf female>hot>wood elf ofc>archerGamin'
>>737638939Not that anon but the topic in the OP lists off D&D-specific characteristics like "Lawful Evil" (capitalized as a proper noun). There are several posts responding about lawful barbarian archetypes outside of D&D that all read more like first-language English than the third world sperg out you posted.
