If you haven't played the game yet and don't wat to be spoiled, then shoo! This is no place for you. Yet. :D
Perhaps the time has come to ask which major faction from the DXIW world is your most favourite. Each faction represents a different philosophy and visions of the future of mankind. Gamers also have their own philosophies. So which faction is closest to your conception of the world?
(You have the option to choose which "branch" of the Illumimati do you like the most. It will be more interesting.)

I chose the Order. They seem to be more goal-oriented and not so much pricks as the WTO. I find the WTO to have many parallels with the current government in the United States, very much concerned with the control of supply routes and the economy by a very few people. Laissez faire is my personal belief, and though I don't ever dig the religious fanatics, I like the characters that represent the Order.
I would choose the Omar, but they are far too underplayed in the game, which really ticks me off. The omar should have leapt in with their superhuman population and dominated LI at the end. Of course, maybe I just haven't found the right combination of actions to make this happen yet ;)

Yeah, the Omar is invincible! Leo single-handedly took out JC's whole base, and he's not even a complete Omar yet.:D

Hahahaha. Funny story about that. I stealthed past the guards at UNATCO because I was running low on ammo (I actually had to remove my neural interface in favor of cloak because I was literally out of ammo and couldn't waste any more on the enemies that don't drop any!)...
Well, I think Leo taking out the Dentons was purely a scripted event, because he got his ASS kicked by a single remaining guard (the guys with the big chests that explode) on his way out to do some heroic deeds at my request.
Leo was a wimp in my game!

well, JC's forces are apparently the weakest... I mean, some grays and hunter seekers, and one military bot.
I find the military prowess of the three factions at the end quite amusing. It's something like Templar > Illuminati > JC. One Templar power suit in most time can beat a Illuminati Elite Trooper, while an Elite Trooper can easily beat down a Gray or Hunter Seeker.

That actually makes sence. JC and his mob are not really an military force at all and the fact their team dies so easy is fine with me. However JC and Paul dying easy thats another issue. Illuminati trooper and Templar fighting, power armour always beats biomods.
