Morally Speaking

Is it correct to shoot someone on the throat if they rip you off a slow moving motorcycle, then punch you once? A person who is no longer my friend was playing Watchdogs 2 or something, and that happened. He hadn't provoked the NPC (or so he said) but the guy took him off his bike, which, in the video he sent me, moved rather slowly, then punched him once. He shot the guy and thought nothing of it casually slipping it into the conversation, as he was talking about Watchdogs at the time. I told him that that seemed a little extreme, and that there are a thousand other ways for him to neutralise that threat, and we got into a super heated argument about whether he should have done that. Personally, what hammered the nail in the coffin for me was when, instead of Googling whether his victim could have survived a throat shot, he Googled his state laws about that kind of stuff. I don't know what state he lives in, but if it's perfectly legal to do that there, (I doubt he actually told the truth though) I do not want to live there. I get that it is his legal right to defend himself, but the NPC put his hands up for Arkay's sake! Well, he tried, but my buddy shot him just before the animation put him into that pose. So, who's right?

    It’s why the lost interest in the first Watchdogs game. It pushed you into doing some really morally suspect things. Some people enjoy playing villains or “anti-heroes”. I don’t . I don’t think it’s a matter of right or wrong. I think choices like this are a mirror into who you really are. There is a stop-action even in Mass Effect: Andromeda where you are caught up the conflict between a gangster and intelligence operative fighting for control of a planet. They agree to meet and “settle their differences”. The gangster show up ready for a straight up fight. The “-blam!-” plans an ambush and tries to snipe her from a safe distance. You’re forced to choose in a matter a seconds, and I shot at the sniper to protect the gangster…and I didn’t understand why at first why I did it. After I thought about it, I understood why I did what I did. I was going to have to work with the winner. Although she was a criminal, the gangster was a “warrior”. She was who she was and she didn’t try to hide it. If she had it in for you, you were going to know it. So you could choose how to proceed…and any fight would be out in the open. The intelligence operative was an assassin. You would never know where you stood or what the truth was….and your first notice that you had a problem with him was likely going to be when you got a knife stuck in your back from the shadows. Or a bullet to the head from concealment. I chose her, because—as bad and as violent as she was—-she had a code of honor that she followed that would make her consistent in ways he would never be. You knew what you were getting and could plan accordingly. My gut reaction was a reflection of how I deal with people in the real world. I choose integrity…even a toxic kind of integrity… over those who simply choose whatever is expedient in the moment.

    Since this is a video game we’re talking about, yeah it’s fine. I would honestly do the same thing 😂. In real life it’s obviously not ok to shoot or punch anyone for no reason tho.
