Good and Evil? Right and Wrong? It's all subjective to our experiences and feelings. For example, abortion is a highly controversial subject. Whether you believe it is right or wrong is all based on your feelings on it. When you say abortion is wrong, what you really mean is "I think/feel that abortion is wrong." If morality was so easily set in stone, we would have no need for courtrooms, debates, ethics, philosophy, etc. It's a touchy subject.
For example, follow this scenario and humor me. You have a time machine. You hop back in time before WW2 and the holocaust. You're presented with the chance to assassinate... no, kill a young Hitler. Now would it be wrong? You're going to prevent a major catastrophe but wait... he didn't do anything, yet. The life of one for the life of many. Hmm... decisions.
What about animals hunting other animals? Is that evil or is it just in their nature? This is controversial as well. Killing can be a necessity of life. You may be confusing the term with murder.
Is Lucifer really evil or was he just fighting for what he truly believed in? Lucifer was just truly human in nature exercising his free will. If I wanted to go to Hell, would that make me evil? Isn't Hell a product of God? Doesn't that mean God wills Evil? If God is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-seeing, and all-good, then why does he allow it? Hell can actually be seen as a form of God's justice, can't it? Don't you have any problems with this? Lucifer's a hero of mine. I actually feel that we should strive to be more like him.
I don't like where you're going with this, Azel. In fact, I hate what you've said. It seems like there are ulterior motives involved (conversion or maybe sugar-coated "saving"?). I wouldn't mind a religious debate, though, but preferably not here. I'm dying for an intellectual conversation, but we'll probably just talk past each other. I've been in these debates before and they all turn out the same. And where do you get off calling Qu'ran a false book? It's fine to say what you believe in but when you write off another religion like that it shows how close-minded you are. I'm not a follower of Islam but I felt I had to protect it. I feel that the bible shouldn't be taken so literally but more as a guideline. However, who am I to say how people should follow a religion. No religion is superior or more correct than another. Show some respect.
As to the topic, I simply chose Elyos for aesthetic reasons. I wouldn't mind Asmodian, either. I'm playing both eventually to see all the quests and cutscenes to see how they differ. Afterwards, then I'll choose a side to remain on since end-game is both the same. Depending on whether I like Elyos or Asmodian cities and environments more or simply the overall community. I'd probably play the underpopulated, outnumbered side which is looking like Elyos more each day. I'd hope for every class and both races to be distributed evenly though because it sucks when you're always winning or continuously losing.
