Exactly. Also, encouraging that Elcor shopkeeper to keep the Quarian under his, er, thumb.
And of course, logical and unemotional types are known for sneering, "big stupid jellyfish."
Of course, there are bigger decisions - it's probably logical to kill Samara and recruit Morinth if you have reason to suspect that Samara will kill you, which is likely if you're all Renegade, all the time.
And here's 16 minutes combined of logical, unemotional decisions:
Okay, to be fair, those aren't all Renegade responses, but even so.

Paragon choices are as logical as renegade choices. The only difference is that the one side believes that burning bridges is the safe road and the other side thinks building bridges is the safe road. The only thing is that if you burn a bridge you know that nothing is going to cross it anymore. If you build a bridge, you don't know what is comming across. So you can argue that burning bridges is good because it won't get you into trouble anymore, and also that building bridges is good because you may get support you need. This is why people keep argueing in circles. You can't say which is the better, more logical, strategic choice. Because they are just using different logic and strategy. You could as well argue about whether shooting people is better than argueing with people. Sometimes the one will prove to be better and sometimes the other. Depending on the situation.

Right, b/c you never give into emotion.

I like your analysis, and the cut of your jib.
I don't care if anyone agrees with my choices (although I've played Renegade and Paragon). I just think it's a bit ridiculous to stake one set of choices off as "the only logical decisions of any merit."

Ah. I meant to say when you argue w/ peo9ple for extended periods of time, you seem to get angrier by the minute. Especially, when you're arguing w/ Cheez.

On another note, DNI keeps saying that Saphra and Arcian should have hate sex. Hate is an emotion.Ravensword wrote...

I have to say, I DO recall Saphra trying to explain something to someone, and he ended his post with "Anger rising." Proof that you are NOT, in fact, a hyper-intelligent AI devoid of human feeling, Saphra.
I don't remember ever claiming that I was anything other than human.

I. Know.
My first post in this thread was the same.
I've said numerous times Paragon and Renegade should be relatively balanced and have logical consquences for decisions (both good and bad). I was poking fun, but the reaction to my post is... unsurprising.

Then I suggest you start using these.
Helps people see the humor a little bit.

Sadly, this is probably true.
