Moral Compass

One interesting feature to look forward to is the game's original morality system known as the Moral Compass. While the idea of good and evil is not new especially in role-playing games, this morality system goes way beyond that. That's because it focuses instead on the philosophical leaning of the character, and this let players shape the world view of the protagonist not just unique ways but also nuanced ones.

For example, a character can prioritize the greater good and lean towards utilitarianism. That means the decisions made are based on the overall benefits that society can obtain even if it means sacrificing individual lives. But as each tough decision is made, the Moral Compass of the characters can shift. Overall, the morality system allow snot just for a protagonist to be created but one that has a unique moral identity which can influence the journey and relationships.
