Normoly newer players or new groups who don't know how to play the other types in an RP setting well. and as a person you can more easily put your self in a person's shoes who tries to be good, but won't deicate your life to being good. which makes them "normal", and normal is what we get every day. A person who will greet you when they meet you. but won't go out of there way to give a ride to a random hitchhiker on the road. And as DM we find that common place or boring. We want people who can do things to help us tell a story, and person playing them "safe" dosent do that and takes away from other players who are trying roles that may be a little out there.
I'd rather have a neutral good then "My parents are DEAD and I'm a huge ASSHOLE about it and also a LONEWOLF so you have to put 20 minutes into making me play the game."
@@Justinrainman "A person who will greet you when they meet you. but won't go out of there way to give a ride to a random hitchhiker on the road. " That sounds more like Lawful Neutral, though tbf that is the _other_ super common irl alignment (imo) so that still fits with your point. And yeah, both alignments are not exactly driving forces of a story, but they do make a lot of sense for the most common backgrounds, and alignments can (and arguably should) change from the events of the campaign. Honestly, my favorite characters are those who start as Lawful Neutral or Neutral Good at level 1, but end the campaign as something else.
It's the lack of commitment. They don't want to restrict themselves to LG, even if it would fit better, and they aren't interesting enough for CG. They have no idea what LN, TN, or CN even look like. They hear all the stories about NE and CE and would rather avoid them, understandably. Only the realest of Chads can pull off an LE, so I can't blame them.
You play neutral good because you enjoy it. I play neutral good because thats my irl alignment. We are not the same.
Okay but honestly that is an awesome Alduin model.
Oh yeah, you sure want your players to be murder hobos and beholder seducers
Not so much the former, but the latter certainly intrigues me.
@@RingXross Good luck with setting up and roleplaying monster dating simulator....
Actually....
That's sounds like an awesome game idea.....
@@RingXrossBEST COMMENT EVER, cus Yes ...beholder saducers
That's not Neutral Good, that's just an egotistical player. Also sounds like the classic "holier than thou" Lawful Good Paladin lol
true i normally play chaotic neutral.
Never annoy the dm
What is it about the Neutral Good alignment that makes so dead boring.
Boring players
