In real life, I only deal in absolutes, so not rewarding "grey" alignments doesnt bother me at all as I'm the sort of player who if I play a good character I'd aim to be 100% white knight or if I played an evil character I'd aim to be 100% evil. In for a penny, in for a pound.

But, in saying that, I think alot of players want to play the anti-hero, some players may want to play a very self centred character but not "evil" and then there are some players who can't be bought, bullied or negotiated with, these players will all lose out if they don't reward grey alignment. So, i'm not against them rewarding it for those players.

This is pretty weak, hope it is untrue... Was definitely looking forward to the challenge of the grey side.

You can still go full gray, just don't expect to be able to wear any of the specific full light or full dark clothing.

Well, my hope was that there would be some cool grey armor and / or abilities... With any luck it'll be something they get in down the road.

If you were Daniels Ericksson's abs, what would you put in the game as grey gear? I certainly have no idea what it would be.

I'm disappointed, but hey there are still a lot of good features and yes fingers crossed that grey perks make it in some time.
I had planned on going grey from the start but now , perhaps Kaetha will walk the darker path. (someone has to)

There are no abilities linked to your allignment. Even if you make full light or darkside, you don't get powers..it's all cosmetic stuff.

Actually, reading the original article that was linked to from the article Kaetha posted it sounds a lot more hopeful that they will get grey stuff in at some point. http://pc.ign.com/articles/121/1210987p1.html

As far as what I think grey stuff would be it'd be nice to have well, grey, armor. ;) Originally I thought there were some dev comments that your LS/GS/DS points would change the look of your powers but maybe they have given up on that. They have said DS will change your characters appearance.
