Am I the only one that has a custom set of morals when I play games? Tarkov especially. And in hindsight, it doesn't make much sense - cause the favor was never done for me when I started.

Allow me to explain a bit more, first off I NEVER fake friendly, I will gladly die on the chance someone is genuinely seeking Parlay. Regardless of my kit, the loot I've gained, I just refuse. I've shot teammates who've faked friendly. It's cowardice, and I won't tolerate it.

Secondly, I absolutely refuse to take a timmies gear. Anyone sitting at 15 or below, I'm not taking anything from them, and I often go above and beyond to hide their stuff. Tarkov is already a punishing game, I know it's by design which I'm perfectly fine with and wouldn't change it. But my logic is, I'm higher level, if you have a weapon or armour, I can probably get it myself. I even go above and beyond, I tend to add random people I kill, and at least give them a GG, or let them know I ditched their stuff, or whatever I can, assuming I remember or survive with the tag.

For instance, the other day, I scav'd on woods for my scav daily. Ended up at the abandoned village. A heavy PMC comes running in front of me, and I absolutely hammered him, killed him. He had the reaper-IR M1A for the quest. Now, most people - wouldn't have second guess it. Huge come up. Me? While live on discord. My squad watching me. I took his whole kit, and ditch it. Catastrophic meltdown about how that was dumb... But realistically - that guy needed it more than me. I've completed the quest, he probably hadn't. I don't rock thermals anyway, so sure it probably would have been like 500k or so. But I felt dirty, the kill although fair, wasn't super clean. I heard him first, and just posted up. He didn't really even have time to react.

Then today, found violet card. Immediately, whole team is screaming for me to extract. But, I didn't. Extracting for the value of the card didn't even cross my mind. Because I have homies that run labs, and none have cards yet. So I figured, if I live - cool. 7 mil ez. If I die, no worries, I have a violet for the homies now. Ultimately, I got murdered by a heat seeking missile of a PMC.

I know I can't be the only guy with a weird moral compass when I play this game, can I? You guys do weird shit too or just me? I'm actually HUGE on the no fake friendly, and ditching Timmy stuff. The violet card is more about me being a greedy goblin and not really caring about instant gratification of the 7 mil.
