Is the dark side too much?

Seriously though the idea is interesting, but every character in the SW universe who has tread this path has ended up being DS. Except Bindo, but I never saw him as neutral, he behaved much more LS than neutral. I think it is part of the mythos that any use of DS powers, no matter how well intentioned eventually results in the corruption of the wielder.

Well there are many strange cases of the DS's influence some are raised by sith,others fall like anakin or for instance juhanni one DS act and bye bye LS.

Also I'm with you on the nuetral bull^$$#,what a waist of time plus you cannot get a bonus on your force powers.

So I think you should gain DS points for casting dark side powers at poeple! And then people will fear you, then you will slaughter them secelessly and then go conquering the galaxy!

although i agree, and in context of KotOR being real life, it's perfectly logical, it would make it harder for LSers to stay LS and still go through the game. although it's supposed to be hard to stay on the path of the light, it's a bit excessive. it would restrict LSers to few, if any, DS powers. the counter-balance would have to be a lot of LS dialogue options, LS gain for using LS powers (in combat), or a combination of both.

No it won't be harder. You can also gain LS points for casting LS powers on people who need help (example: heal on injured people). That restricts DSers to few, if any, LS powers (so it's a good balance). You also gain LS points for giving nessecary stuff to people. The many LS dialogues is not recomended (but there should be a bit more of them). Using LS and DS powers in combat in no factor once so ever. Would I really need to gain LS points for casting Heal, or DS points for casting Force Scream in combat? No!
