The torturer is not the source of evil at this castle and from what we discover there are many, MANY other "horned knights" who will take his place.įurthermore, we discover a recruitment flyer in the rodent's house that says if a person joins them their families are protected. You said you can't eliminate evil or a crime by committing another one.and yet by murdering the man, you yourself doing exactly as you just described. I hope that you get where I'm going with this thougth." But if you only eliminate a source of evil, provided that this source would produce more of it (if given a chance) and in quantity or quality higher than that of a killing this person. You can't eliminate evil or crime by commiting another one. ""From that man's perspective, the people he tortures are all monsters" - but there is no such crime that would justify torturing a person, who commited it. Hence, if we would want to actually play this game as if we are its main character, then we would have to restraint our own intellectual capabilities down to his level. "The truth is, you aren't in a position to judge since as the character." - well, you're right here, but the problem is that your character had to be really, REALLY ignorant in problems of morals and ethics in order to commit the crime he commited. oh, and I really like the idea of comparing him with nazis, because both thought that they were justified in their actions. "The torturer? He's doing his job" - so did nazis in death camps. "You are guilty of crimes and you technically deserve to be where you are" - as I said above, torture (and any kind of punishment at all, since we know that prevention works better: look at Sweden's prisons, for example) is nothing but unnecessary evil. I hope that you get where I'm going with this thougth. "From that man's perspective, the people he tortures are all monsters" - but there is no such a crime that would justify torturing a person, who commited it.
