npc affections

[2733]

yes, this is another of my odd little topics, this ones a little more philosophical so get your thinking caps on.

are in game effects to npc affections a good thing?

are they good because they give more impact to the decisions the player makes?

Or are they Bad, because they often cause the player to become a sort of virtual ass kisser, so that they can have the bonuses and perks needed to play or win at the game?

I'm going with good, so long is it's implemented properly.

Or are they Bad, because they often cause the player to become a sort of virtual ass kisser, so that they can have the bonuses and perks needed to play or win at the game?

This doesn't necessarily happen. Depending on the character, acting like that would actually cause them to dislike you more.
