One of the Bioware devs posted that something like 92% of players were heavily to entirely Paragon despite them putting a lot of effort into Renegade content. People want to care about others, even virtual folks. You get invested.
Fun fact: 96% of the population have at least normal levels of empathy
I think it’s funny when you do something bad to video game characters.
I think it’s good to be able to empathize with fiction, to naturally resist the choice that hurts people or things, even if it’s fake.
But yes yeeting a fictional child over a building can still be hilarious to watch.
Especially considering we’re entering an era where NPCs / robots are getting more and more human-like. Smh it feels more twisted to mistreat an android or AI-NPC than some vacuum or stickman NPC.
