Does it make you feel bad when..

I don't feel bad killing animals OR people!

The way I see it, I loot their corpses, and sell everything I can find! In a day with my newest character, I currently have 10,000 caps, but have bought equipment worth at least 8,000.

If this was real, I'd so be going to hell lol!

I capped the crucifixions at Nipton, it seemed the right thing to do at the time, still does.

I don't see the point in killing coyotes at all...they're pretty harmless. Anything that they are hanging around is pretty much useless to me anyway...I've either got tons of it already, or I could buy it.

There's enough 'grey shades' in the game to feel bad about without having to go looking for it on my own.

I always find it amusing how pragmatic people's sense of morality is in this game: It's wrong to get karma from killing someone, but it's okay to loot their body afterwards....

That's morality with a price limit....

I did the same, but at the same time, I think everybody crucified at Nipton (at least in my game) were Powder Gangers, and I was hunting down every last one.

As I mentioned earlier, however, there is at least one slave crucified at the Legion outpost at Cottonwood Cove. Hard to leave her hanging there, near death, so I capped her.

The only thing in this game that makes me feel just a teeny tiny little bit sad. Is when you shoot a gecko and it covers its face with its hands and whimpers.

I didn't care about the guys crucified in Nipton. They looked like Powder Gangers to me. So they got what was coming to them. I popped the ones by the river and saved the trooper hostages.

I've never had to kill the star caps necklace guy. First two times his encounter came up the woman killed him. Third time I failed the speech check then followed him until a giant radscorpion had him for lunch.

My feel bad moment was with Snuffles. Just finished healing him and a bark scorpion killed him :(

In the legion camp

Spoiler
When I was deciding how to kill Benny, I figured he's really not that bad so I'll give him a quick death with a machete. Then he asks me to make it clean.

I wouldn't have felt bad about that, since he'd certainly earned his fate trying to murder me twice. But my character had about 10 skill with melee and 5 strength, so it took about 15 swings to kill him, lol. I was expecting his health to be reduced for the execution.

Much like in real life, I kill animals for the meat or out of self-defense. One time I took out an entire bighorner herd with my Hunting Rifle. I ate like a king for a while on that meat.
