Who to side with, Bates or Appleby???

I'm just interested to know what people think on this one. Which choice of the two is better for a good-aligned type and why? Should I assist Appleby in betraying Bates? Is it better to do the opposite? How about driving Appleby mad from repeating the name "Bates" over and over" 'til he attacks? Am just looking for soe ideas here on what the best choice is for whom and why...

 

Well --- I went with Bates because neither one made the

engine. Bates took it from the dwarven,
Appleby stole/got it from Bates. You will
get to talk to Bates eventually, and it starts a whole mess of quests. Maybe
Appleby is good, I didn't try him.
A huge hint: one of the crypts in the cemetary will be very interesting. Just kill
the guy who attacks you.

 

that appleby gut behaves like a raving lunatic don't want to be really siding with that

 

Well, during my evil replay, I killed all of the people I met including bates and applesby but I still got to go to the Wheel Clan.

 

I love the bates thing when you attack him
"Chukka Attack!" This game is a whole lotta laughs. Or when you kill the priesttest in stillwater you say "I'm not sorry for the pain you will be experiencing right now"
it's a master piece to be evil

 

hey I'm reinstalling the game on a new system hope there will be no "are you sure you want to quit?" Because that is not so funny

 

Do whatever you feel like

So far I've sided with Appleby once, Bates once and neither once (just stole the information and used it myself).

 

All Hail Chaos!
Methinks that's my next course of action. It may be easy to take candy from a baby, but it's a damned sight tougher than pulling it from a corpse.

 

Good characters should align with Bates. The reason I'm choosing Bates is that he gives away a lot of money. So Bates is a rich guy? Hmmm... How about Gates? :smile:

 

bates

i always kill appleby.. even when im good alinged.. he's a nutjob.

gets you a piece for the underground also

later

 

Appleby's engines should be poxy semitransparent gaily coloured (and I mean happy gay :razz plastic things that no-one likes or uses. He deserves to die.
