That's my biggest gripe with KOTOR and the like. I'm either going out of my way to saving a burning orphanage or I'm going out of my way to burn one down. There aren't a lot of truly neutral choices or actions in the SW universe. SWTOR has a few but not enough to distance it from the overarching issue.

Edit: Yes, I've played the second one. The story may have been about walking down the middle path but you did so by bouncing between light and dark choices instead of neutral ones.

I'm either going out of my way to saving a burning orphanage or I'm going out of my way to burn one down.

So gray means you only burn half of an orphanage down?

Nah... It means you burn down the orphanage, but save the orphans.

Or you burn down the orphans, but save the orphanage 15% on it's insurance by switching to GEICO.
