If I made a video game with a moral system where your alignment was based on the consequence of your action rather than your intent, would that make people really angry?

Well if you're choices have drastically different results than what would be expected, that would be frustrating

depends on the action and context, don't go all Infamous on us and say: "killing people is wrong" so killing the bad guy makes your karma go down.

he's the bad guy, not some fucking patron saint

Yes. Look at Dishonored.

Moral Systems are fucking stupid, almost anti ethical.

Judging actions on a spectrum is childish and biased. There are just actions and consequences.

Video games

If thinking the game is shit for including alignment at all counts as angry then yes.

The best systems don't rate your morality but have people react only if they would have good reason to have heard about or witnessed the action and your character.

Which is ironic because the only games I've played like that have still been shite.
