List of Good/Evil actions possible in The Suffering

This is a list of all the Good/Evil actions possible in The Suffering. Neutrality can be an option if the player chooses to ignore or bypass these moral situations in-game.

Good actions

These actions fill up Good morality for Torque, which usually entail helping other guards/inmates escape and keeping them safe from danger until they part ways with Torque. Good morality levels are represented by Torque becoming healthier and cleaner, and the photo of his family becoming clean and clear. This also alters the way others perceive him in visions and the ending of the game. (Note: not all actions must be done to achieve the Good ending.) Xombium bottles will also have a higher effect on a Good morality, making recovery easier.

Chapter 1

Escort the guard to the electric chair room safely. His death in this room is part of the game, and does not affect morality.

(Note: you cannot save the guard in the gas chamber. His death is part of the game also).

Chapter 2

None.

Chapter 3

Escort Dallas (Reward morality available next chapter)

Chapter 4

Shut the scared inmate in his cell to protect him from the monsters.

If in tow, help Dallas escape the prison.

Chapter 5

Shoot the Marksman the guard is fighting on the right when you begin this chapter.

At the same location, kill the Slayer on the left.

Chapter 6

Free the prisoners trapped in their cells.

Chapter 7

Help the scared guard, Luther, get to the Radio building.

Chapter 8

When the guard in the quarry tunnel tells the player to remain still, do so until the Burrower cutscene starts.

 (The guards you encounter shoot on sight, so killing them will not affect morality)

Chapter 9

Use the crane to allow the prisoner to cross the quarry.

Chapter 10

None.

Chapter 11

Shoot the mutilated, but still living, guard in the padded cell to end his misery.

Turn on the power in the basement to allow Sergei to listen to his music. Accomplish this by breaking boards blocking sewer pipe to drain the water and throwing the switch to generator. You will get electricuted if you do not drain area first.  (You must return to Sergei to receive credit for this action. Otherwise you are just turning the power on in the house so you don't have to always use your flashlight.) 

Chapter 12

None.

Chapter 13

Help Clem escape the island by escorting him and setting the shipwreck ablaze to stop the Festers, allowing him to sail his raft away.

Chapter 14

None.

Chapter 15

None.

Chapter 16

Kill the Festers that Harley and the other guard are fighting before they are killed, and then meet them in the watchtower they enter.

Chapter 17

None

Chapter 18

After the inmate traps himself with rocks in the cave he will ask for help, blow open the rocks he's talking through by droping TNT at the bottom middle of the rocks, then escort the scared inmate to the lighthouse basement. Again, his subsequent death is part of the game and does not affect morality.

Chapter 19

Follow and escort Ernesto Alvarez to the power station and back. (morality available next chapter)

When meeting the three inmates in the cave, defend them from the monster ambush. Ensure they are all alive and then meet them in the center of the cave.

Chapter 20

Escort Ernesto the rest of the way to the town so he may check on his family.

Neutrality

One of the moral pathways in the game is neutrality, which is the moral default at the beginning of the game. This morality is affected by simply not getting involved with/ignoring moral actions and scenarios, or simply by performing a balance of Good and Evil actions throughout the game. Neutrality is represented by Torque's body being a little pale and dirty, and the photograph of his family being creased and crumpled. The game's ending will also change.

Standard Neutral acts

Ignoring/bypassing moral situations, allowing inmates/guards to be killed by monsters.

Evil actions

This is a list of all Evil actions possible during the game, which roughly translates as killing or otherwise hindering the survival and welfare of other survivors. Evil is represented by Torque getting dirtier, with wounds and grey skin. The photo of his family will also get dirty, crumpled and stained with blood, and the game's ending will change. (Note: Not all actions need to be performed to get the Evil ending).

Xombium bottles will also have a reduced effect on an Evil morality, making recovery more difficult.

Standard Evil acts

The only standard evil acts are killing inmates and C.O.s that are not a threat, with the exception of the two caged slayers in the basement (encountered on Torque's second visit to the basement.) Desecrating or decapitating corpses does not count as an evil action.

Killing non-hazardous Carnate wildlife, such as rats and crows, does not count as an evil action.

Chapter 1

Chapter 13

None

Chapter 17

None

Chapter 18

Once he traps himself behind the rock, kill the inmate who has been throwing TNT at you since the last chapter.

Chapter 19

You meet Ernesto in this level. Killing him at any time rewards negative morality points. (If you are attempting the worst possible morality and wish to kill him, it still may be a good idea to let him tag along for the time being as he helps you quite a bit in the fights. Not to mention that if you don't know what do do in this level, he'll help you with that too.)

Kill the three inmates in the cave.

Chapter 20

The only morality choice to make in this level is killing Ernesto if you haven't already done so in chapter 19.

(If you attack your first doppelganger (creature version) while not in insanity mode enough, you will die, the screen will go red and you will hear Carmen yell at Torque, but it doesn't count any negative morality points. The same is true for fighting in the inverse forms.)
