I love, love that they took a hint from Torchlight and let your companion take off for 60 seconds to sell your vendor trash. So awesome.

So you're RPing an evil dude in PVE and you're calling her a Deviantart carebear?
I get your point, just giving you a hard time.
haha, well you get rewards for going down one path or the other and I'm assuming a Sith gets better rewards for being dark side.
Plus, dark side options for Sith are darkly funny.
I...RPed...purely for logical gameplay progression, I assure you.

Yea you get your alignment score for whatever you chose no matter what someone else does, but like the other poster noted, you get stupid people who will make a fuss because it broke their "vision" of how they wanted their characters story to go.
Yep, you actually see the choices they made next to their character and are told how many light/dark points they get. But as to who's decision the "story" takes, it's all based on a random roll.
I was never in a situation where a decision would heavily affect the other players. Maybe the decisions in heroics will have more weight later on in the game, but the only weighty decision I've seen was "attack him/her" which would mean you're basically forcing your party into a fight.
And since you can chat during the dialogue scenes, you can all talk about your decision. That said, if attacking someone is going to give you dark side points and you want DSP for your character's progression, then there comes a moment where you have to choose between your character wanting points and your party being forced into what might be a potentially dangerous fight.
