What Factions are "Good" and what ones are "Evil"
Speculation is that there will be factions within Destiny and ive started to wonder what factions out of the main 5 (The Seven Seraphs, Osiris, Dead Orbit, FWC, and New Monarchy) do you think makes up the "good" and "evil" of the factions. This is just my opinion and take on who i think is who:
Seven Seraphs: The "Good" religious faction, based upon diplomacy and keeping the bloodshead to a minimum. although when they do have to fight their soliders are soldiers of their "god" and are very loyal and will do anything to keep their faction strong and alive.
FWC: The closest faction to the standard US Government, Ideals of Democracy, freedom of religion, and things closest to the current United States. so viewed as one of the "Good" factions. military closest to our own in ways of how we use and distribute our armies.
Osiris: Faction that is neither "good" nor "evil" they tend to stay "Sweden neutral" keeping to themselves but they can be militarily ready when need be, so don't count them out of a fight.
Dead Orbit: a faction that is not to be taken lightly they (although not fully evil) aren't good either. i view them as controlled by a "dictator" or one sole leader who has "advisers" below him/her. their military is ruled with an iron fist and is ready to destroy any other faction by all means necessary
New Monarchy: this is the "evil" faction purely run ruthlessly by the new age monarchy system. the king ruling his people with little to no mercy what so ever. and their military will eliminate everyone who gets in their way. anyone who dares oppose them will be wiped off the map with virtually nothing to show that they even existed
Now like i stated these are just my personal speculations and i love to hear what other people think as well. This game looks ablosutely fantastic and im becoming an absolute FANATIC for this game and everything within it. the entire storyline and plot seems so in depth and interesting i cannot help but get excited for it so please let me know what you guys think and lets see how many people we can get to reply!

I doubt that any of them are going to be deserving of the Evil title. Some of them might come across as misguided, but they are all trying to preserve mankind, I assume.

1 ReplyGood and evil depends on the point of view...
-
2 Repliesmonarchy's arnt nessisarly evil vo it depends who the king is and you cant say there evil as different people have different views of good and evil
-
None, i believe each has their own agenda.
-
Whichever one has an ambivalent view of The Traveller can sign me up right now. But it looks like I might need to start that one, myself.

1 ReplyThis seems like a pretty good thought on factions, however I feel that the factions should be more like what other people are suggesting like neither good nor evil just groups of people that have a somewhat common goal yet different ideas on how to obtain that goal; goals being anything like for humanity, power, etc.
-
1 ReplyIt looks like you kind of jut looked at the name of the faction and then made up a description based on that name....
-
1 ReplyHopefully there will be no good or evil factions and they'll all be shades of grey.
-
4 RepliesI doubt the faction concept is split into good and evil. We're all fighting for humanity. I could see the different factions having their own methods or side goals, maybe one is focused on gathering historic information, while another believes raw fighting power and weaponry is the key.

Edited by Kilo: 2/25/2013 4:45:13 AMI don't think there are good and evil factions. If that were true then they wouldn't be factions. Factions are groups within a group.
-
The Fizzy-Wiggs Club is the most diabolical of all the Factions.
-
I think they could be about anything right now but all with one central goal, expansion.
-
5 RepliesWow I thought alot different, I though FWC would be a small rag-tag group because it's a cult and Osiris would be religios since a Osiris is an Egyption god and that New monarchy would be good...
-
Thanks to all who have placed their input on what they believe everything is about , and thanks to everyone who has disagreed with my "good" and "evil" terminology for not tearing me a new strip on it like some folks on reddit im sure would. so keep the ideas flowing! thanks agian! hopefully i can become more of a figure within the forums and destiny community seeing as im really new to this whole forum thing.

1 ReplyGood and evil? No. That's opinionated and doesn't matter. Considering though, there is hints towards the whole Faction Wars option that they're fighting says that they could get in each others way while trying to progress humanity in their own ways.
-
Are all factions confirmed to be human?
-
I get the impression Dead Orbit is going to be heavily tied to the Traveler, so maybe they're a faction that wants to use the power of it to save humanity.
-
3 RepliesI feel like, as others have stated, all the factions intend to bring humanity back on top. However, each faction may have their own ways in achieving this goal...wonder if any of them will be revealed to be working with alien forces for power. Doubt it though.
-
Well, obviously, every side believes it's doing the right thing. Good and evil don't really apply in war anyway.
-
It's likely that they're all morally neutral.
-
7 RepliesI'm impatiently waiting for news about them so I can decide which direction to take my character...And which shirt to buy from the Bungie Store.
-
6 RepliesThey're doing it wrong if there are "good" and "evil" factions.
