Damn, I knew it! Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 20/09/2011 05:11:25 PM
You may know this, but you're actually only supposed to use "thine" and "mine" when preceeding a word that starts with a vowel. Thine ears, thine eyes. It keeps the two vowel sounds from running together, which they would do if you said "thy ears, thy eyes". It's like in French when you say "l'amour" instead of "la amour", and it's the same reason why we say "an apple" instead of "a apple". For your sentence, it should be "Lend me thy vast expertise."

I almost, almost!, went with thy. I should have went with my instincts.

My companions! Lend me thine vast expertise Dark Knight - 20/09/2011 03:56:19 PM 1187 Views
Hm. It depends on what you mean by "rewarded." beetnemesis - 20/09/2011 04:15:18 PM 874 Views
No, not quite Dark Knight - 20/09/2011 04:29:42 PM 805 Views
I don't think I know anything that matches what you want. Nate - 20/09/2011 04:39:22 PM 779 Views
You are a horrible human being. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 20/09/2011 08:24:05 PM 339 Views
I'm morally grey! Women love me, and men want to be like me. *NM* Nate - 20/09/2011 09:15:31 PM 372 Views

I thnk Fallout 3 gave you bonuses for being neutral. MightyYT - 20/09/2011 04:52:11 PM 772 Views
That was the first that came to my mind, too. *NM* ironclad - 21/09/2011 09:46:11 AM 334 Views
P.S. re: "thine" Nate - 20/09/2011 04:57:27 PM 738 Views

"Netural" isn't about picking "good and evil" choices. LadyLorraine - 20/09/2011 04:59:42 PM 786 Views
It'd be pretty difficult to specifically reward you for being a 'gray' character. (Two games) Jacob - 20/09/2011 05:02:28 PM 918 Views
Take Knights of the Old Republic, for example Dark Knight - 20/09/2011 05:08:04 PM 843 Views
That's not so much an alignment as just metagaming the system. Fanatic-Templar - 20/09/2011 09:27:49 PM 804 Views
thank you for phrasing that better than me *NM* LadyLorraine - 20/09/2011 11:11:54 PM 343 Views
Maybe I didn't explain right Dark Knight - 20/09/2011 11:19:51 PM 720 Views
I'd say that's evil. Fanatic-Templar - 21/09/2011 03:00:32 AM 899 Views
of course, then you get into question of whether actions like that example are evil LadyLorraine - 21/09/2011 04:03:03 AM 766 Views
Questions of morality are the great fun of philosophy . Fanatic-Templar - 21/09/2011 05:24:50 AM 740 Views

That's actually a pretty narrow view of Neutral when it comes to Alignment or Morality. Jacob - 21/09/2011 02:19:34 PM 789 Views
I thought I had allowed for what you said. Fanatic-Templar - 21/09/2011 04:33:30 PM 694 Views
It's not a neutral outlook Dark Knight - 21/09/2011 06:27:27 PM 832 Views
See, what you're talking about IS in fact considered EVIL. Jacob - 21/09/2011 08:33:30 PM 781 Views
You might want to try The Witcher series. Zalis - 21/09/2011 05:16:05 AM 756 Views
I just played the first one... LadyLorraine - 21/09/2011 02:14:13 PM 806 Views
Grey decisions are good but... Dark Knight - 21/09/2011 06:19:04 PM 840 Views
they don't reward it because, for the most part, they don't want you taking a middle ground. LadyLorraine - 21/09/2011 07:10:48 PM 720 Views
Well that's just stupid. Tired of picking the 2 sides over and over *NM* Dark Knight - 21/09/2011 08:02:11 PM 379 Views
Neutrality is often boring or selfish. Good stories seldom have truly neutral protagonists. *NM* Zalis - 22/09/2011 06:27:05 PM 356 Views
Are you kidding? Dark Knight - 22/09/2011 06:54:19 PM 809 Views
There's a difference between doing "bad" things for a good purpose, and being neutral. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 22/09/2011 09:12:16 PM 331 Views
That's chaotic good, not neutral. *NM* Ghavrel - 22/09/2011 10:36:28 PM 370 Views
I have an on-topic comment as well as a general rant on game morality systems. Aemon - 21/09/2011 06:43:21 PM 931 Views
if they wanted to make the conversation mechanics more complicated... LadyLorraine - 21/09/2011 07:14:21 PM 850 Views
I don't care if it's complicated so long as it's clear. Aemon - 22/09/2011 08:27:46 PM 739 Views
I agree with this, actually. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 22/09/2011 09:17:23 PM 370 Views
I agree with that, too. *NM* Ghavrel - 22/09/2011 10:38:15 PM 354 Views
