powers that makes your character feel special.
I dont think good characters are even suppose to get any power.
I believe i have seen some interview with Swen telling us that this power will come for a price and those who will resist it will be rewarded by not paying it. Or something simmilar.
Also i would personaly not support idea of good OR evil power ... i believe there is no tepting then, you are just choosing wich power you want. This way tho you actualy are resisting some temptation ... wich from narative perspective seems much better.
What temptation are you talking about ?
Try to remember your first playthrough... The tadpole is appealing and show some kind of power mostly in conversations (authority) and it's obviously appealing for someone that wants to play "the evil" choice.
The dream appears right after the firsts dialogs temptation and if I'm not wrong, you gain the power after the first one.
At this point the story is mostly "the tadpole will become more and more powerfull and you will probably loose control/become a mindflayer".
Nothing makes the player understand that
your character (>< the tadpole) is going to become more and more powerfull if you embrace the tadpole's power.
On top of that, even if you use it your quest remains to "find a cure"... So I really don't see any temptation related to the special power.
And so I don't see why good players shouldn't have some kind of powers too for being able to "resist" the tadpole's influence. Exactly like you gain special power in BG1/2 for doing "good" things even if something "evil" runs through your veins
Shouldn't it be appealing too ? One way is supposed to be appealing because you have authority + special powers + playing "evil" (+ potential consequences) while the other one should be only appealing because it' means playing "good" ? (- potential consequences, something you only know if you have seen Swen's interview)
