So is Shepard. The difference is that Shepard and Thane don't kill innocents nor to they kill for just pleasure. Where as Morinth kills people for the heck off it and because she likes the thrill. One is a necessary evil, the other is a monster.

Hmmm, maybe you should go to these "people" that you seem to have a disagreement with, and argue with them directly? :mellow:

They have words for that in the English language. Thane is an assassin. Morinth, I think, is a serial killer.

Mass murder sounds like a military concept. Even when it's not, it can hardly be applied to Thane or Morinth, since neither kills a large number of people within a very short period of time (the definition of mass murder).

Thane kills people for money. Almost as bad as killing people for the heck of it.

I think Thane is aware of the fact that he didn't only kill corrupt people, but becoming an assassin wasn't exactly his choice. Maybe he tries to cope with his situation by seeing himself as nothing but a weapon, unable to make its own decisions?

Well, Shepard cannot be too picky, I guess.
Which is a good thing, because Thane turns out to be a very decent and reliable character. Morinth, however, remains a five-letter word filtered out on these forums.

People are okay with Thane because when Thane kills he doesn't have an orgasm.

There's a big difference between killing for business and killing for sadistic pleasure. If you can't tell the difference then I don't want to be friends with you :<

EDIT: Not that I condone either. hurr hurr.

Do you really think thane never killed innocents?Again,look at the example of his son.He starts his career with a try to kill a innocent turian politican.
If thane only kill bad guys where wouldnt be a reason to regret his past actions (prayer for the BAD).Why,if he made the world better.
The thought alone that assasins only kill bad people is really amusing.

The motive doesnt matter.At the end,the victims are dead.

Ehh, that Turian was hardly innocent.



And Thane prays for himself, not the victims.

Thane is a murderer you are correct and his stupid justification of 'but I'm just a gun' doesn't buy me since he has free will and can choose to stop being an assassin.

And that was the most lousy excuse i ever heard.
He has a free will and not a genetic disorder.
To be honest,he is a big hypocrite.

As Thane puts it, he did not kill them, his body did as it is just a tool.

The Turian was innocent. He was presenting his argument through the legal diplomatic process. Just because you disagree with him doesn't give you a right to kill him.

In the words of Zaeed, *in badass cockney accent* "One type is a trained killer, the other a psychopath. A lot of people caan't tell the difference."

Please don't use that BS excuse. Thats like a Concentration camp officer saying I was just a tool for Hitler when he is captured and being allowed to walk out free.

Yeah, I love their philosophy. It's so convenient.
Then again, it's probably not much worse than the strategy widely used by a lot of nations:

1. Commit a genocide.
2. Cry a river when it's done (and not many people left to take vengeance). :D

Ugh, you saw him have his Krogan bodyguard threatening an innocent human shop owner for protection money. Maybe you weren't smart enough to follow him all the way through?

You're right I forgot about that. But that still doesn't mean you take matters into your own hands and kill him. You alert the authorities instead.

Why don't you go and read your own topic again. You asked why people don't like Morinth, and I'm telling you that people don't like Morinth because of her body count, they think she's a bad person because she f*cking gets off on killing people. If she had a reason to kill them, like Thane, then they wouldn't have as much of a problem with her. There's your answer.

Thane is an iceman, not a mass murderer... killing many people =/= mass murder. And actualy nobody in game implies that he killed only baddies. He killed who he was contracted to kill.



Morinth is a freak of nature additcet to emotions connected with killing and sex... nuff sayed.
