Geneforge fans will be familiar with the open-ended nature of the game. Spiderweb Software's Geneforge titles have great stories that evolve as you make decisions and interact with the world. If you concede that Shapers shouldn't be so harsh, you might earn approval from the townspeople who are suffering from the effects of the war. Of course, you will anger Shapers who might otherwise be able to provide aid to you. There is no absolute evil character in the game, so it is entirely possible to switch sides and feel that you are fighting the Good Fight. And making difficult decisions about the alignment of your beliefs is part of the fun.
