I suppose it would be an extreme game design challenge, but I would play more evil characters if I didn't have to play as "stupid evil".

I want to be a manipulative monster who preys on trust. Of course I'm not going to punch the begger in broad daylight in front of everyone. I want chat him up, gain his trust, and give him a drink laced with medical alcohol so I can then steal his pocket change.

You could make real money in Eve doing that.

EVE has fantastic stories, but I'd never want to play it myself. The people who did stuff like the bank scam put in so much time in front of spreadsheets it was like a real job.

God damn. That fucking guy who ran the bank genuinely for years and then one day just closed up shop and fucked off might be the wildest story in gaming history.

iirc there's also no evidence buffalo buffalo buffalo that he ever tried to use or sell the ingame currency. Guy seemingly just did it for the meme.

That's even wilder
