I agree with you regarding the difficulty of transferring emotional
states to players. Thus, I've given up on the concept of
predefining 'good' and 'evil' in MUDs as relates to interpersonal
relationships. They just don't work.
Side Note: Webster's Dictionary defines 'evil' as 'morally bad,
wrong'. Thus, 'evil' (and by default, 'good') are relative terms
relating to degree of adherence to societal norms and values. The
problem with MUDs in this context is that the behaviors that break
societal norms (and are thus 'evil') are not permitted in the game
because the code won't allow it or for fear of disciplinary action
by GMs, e.g., kill-stealing, trade fraud, 'training' mobs on people,
etc. Thus, you have a homogeneous player base with a similar value
system where deviation from that system is not permitted. The
player cannot perform truly 'evil' acts as long as they are within
the game rules. A society with no evil can never accurately reflect
the human condition.
I tackled this issue in a design I am currently working on.
Going back through human history, there have been three primary
motivators... "Glory, Gold, and God", i.e., fame, wealth, and
ideals. Almost any world event/movement can be traced to one or all
of these motivators. Those events that can't be defined by one or
all of these three are usually attributed to psychopaths or, as in
the case of the just-following-orders concentration camp guards,
people who have yielded their right to make decisions to another.
In either case, I would argue that such behavior is abnormal rather
than reflecting the 'human condition'.
It seems that no matter how compelling the backstory, relying on the
"God" coin to motivate players just ain't gonna work if the player
can realize a higher "Glory" and "Gold" result by acting in ways
inconsistent with the storyline. SW:The Empire Strikes Back was on
TV the other night and demonstrated this principle well when Darth
Vader asked Luke to join him and rule the universe after their
battle in the Sky City. Luke decided to reject the offer and end
his life rather than give up his ideals... to do otherwise would be
'evil' for him.
How many players (particularly core gamers) would make the same
decision and give up ultimate power and wealth in the name of
role-playing in a game where there is no 'evil'?
