Playing God

No I don't mean that guy who uses the name 'god' when cbox-ing.
I mean playing God!
In a three year old game called black and white 2.
Basically, you play as a Greek God, expanding your cities far and wide.
There's a catch to it.
You could put in that extra effort of being a 'good' God, as the rewards are better.
Give the people what they want and do good deeds, and they will become a productive society.

Or you could be....'evil'....
The only 2 representations of you(god) is your floating hand (which becomes dark, dirty, unkempt and bony the more you do evil and more whole, glowing, radiant when you do more good.) and your pet avatar.

There are 4 avatars you can choose from.
The wolf, the lion, the monkey, and the cow.
They all stand on their hind legs than on all four, making em look monstrous.
They all start of as babies and grow larger as the game progresses.
They, like your hand, change in appearance depending on their good-evil alignment.

Evil avatars become yellow/red eyed, bony, and full of sharp protrusions. Making them look seriously evil.
Good avatars become radiant and give out a golden glow.



The concept of it is pretty cool that's why I decided to start playing it.
