The one that kills me is the "I am going to help you (lie)" one. Because games seem to really have no interest in letting you play a Machiavellian evil character and your followers, even late into a game, react as though everything you say is face value. And even when you do go the full-on evil character, you never have evil loving horny psycho female fangirls and diehards. It's always depressed frowny people and you yell at them. Never willing slaves who want their tits mashed up or their balls crushed in the ball crushing machine. We deserve a better class of writer for open-ended choice heavy game. Though it's also a core issue with the traditional alignment system being kinda crap.

5e was bad and D&D Next sounds like it's basically going to turn shit into Improv Night at Doug's Basement or whatever. At least, that's what I hear. I can't bring myself to care to look into it anymore.
