Altarians Good? I think not.

from Stardock Forums
I never cease to be amazed by how the game considers the Altarians to be saintly. They are not. They are zealous, fanatical crusaders, who will cheerfully launch opportunistic wars of extermination against anyone different from themselves.

At least the Drengin are honest about their brutality. The Altarians are deceitful liars who will stab you in the back at the drop of a hat.

I hates them I do.

Yes, the Altarians can be fanatical crusaders. They should be. Afterall, extreme moral absolutism can lead to a case of fighting everyone else outside a very narrow group, fanaticism being the enemy of itself.

Being morally absolute is not bad. It depends on what your morale principles are. Altarians may believe in the wrong things. Drengin don't believe in the right things. Basically, that's the same thing.

The difference is that you can have something in common with the Altarians if you act as they believe you should.

You can't have anything in common with Drengin because they believe in nothing, except that maybe chocolate is good and that your leg looks juicy.
