I know nice guys lose in SE4 unless they make peace the winning option.

In SE4 always have at least 1 war going.

By "nice" I mean someone who isn't a lying, cheating, a**hole bastard. Or maybe even someone who just treats other people well, but isn't a total wimp. I sure as hell don't mean your "nice guy who's gay" option

Probably closer to your second choice.

* Is listening to Weird Al's Version of 'Dog Eat Dog'. The guy in that song is going to have a heart attack. Or go mental.

Haha you got me Gryphin. Total cynicism. Being the nice guy really doesn't work for me at all. Then again, I'm only 17 years old

. So my experience is kind of limited. But I can't help being the "nice guy". Its who I am, and I won't change who I am.

I would agree with you here once again, and this gives me hope. Just kinda sucks sometimes

When I was growing up, I saw lots of girls I found attractive and interesting who seemed only to have eyes for guys that treated them like dirt (or substitute another 4-letter word). I never understood it especially when they could have been with ME

Exactly. This is why I'm so cynical about being the "nice guy". When it comes to love, it gets you nowhere. It seems we have plenty of nice guys here, but no women to tell us what they think!!

Don't worry about it

I'm 17 and i seem way too occupied with helping people out than i should be. In most peoples opinion I'd admit I probably full under "Doormat Nice"

But as everyone's said eventually you get rewarded.

Of course if you don't you can start being rather evil and scheming in your spare time and No-one will suspect you

I'm a nice guy and I have never had any problems succeeding in life, so far. Granted being 19 and young compared to alot of the members here does not say much for me but my boss knows he can trust me and rely on me to accomplish a task without taking a dirty route to get it done.

In SEIV I will play both nice and mean guy depending on the game, can never become too bland and predictable so you have to spice it up sometimes.

Women...ugh...they are so confusing sometimes...
