Amarr tech always looks the best. As soon as the Amarr pilot and dropship are released my advanced Assault and advanced Commando won't be seeing much light. Don't even care if dropships aren't fixed by then, the Amarr dropship just looks so good.

There's also nothing in Dust so far that would suggest it has a deep backstory, and the racial description never mentions anything about Gallentean freedom not always being what you think it would be.

This is definitely a problem. It would be nice if there was some intro cutscenes all first time players had to watch that helped portray the races, and I'm not talking about those 30 second clips from the Home space that barely tell you anything. |

Speaking of which, imagine this
Amarr Warbarge Amarr MCC Amarr Laser Turret Installations Amarr CRUs Amarr Supply Depots Amarr Orbital Artillery Outpost Amarr Biomass Outpost Amarr Communications Outpost and all the Amarr Vehicles
Not gonna lie, the future battlefields are going to be sexy. |

I find the minimalist styling, and the utilitarian mindset I admire.
Get everything done the most efficiently.

For the ladies. (;
And am i the only one, who thinks that (with an eye on the concept art on Minmatar and Amarr vehicles) the current Gal und Cal vehicles are to similar? |

I like Gallente, but I do not support really support the Federation per se. My character is more interested in the well being of his own race, the Intaki, specifically the state in which his homeworld is in due to being lowsec space by CONCORD. He remains neutral on the Empyrean War(Faction warfare) aside the few times he gets contracted to participate in them by his squad leader. He does not shame his Gallente citizenship, but he will point out the problems that lie in the Federation without doubt. |

ILF's interests are to protect the Intaki Assembly territory, mainly the Placid region in New Eden and provide support for the Intaki planets in terms of food, supplies and medicine. ILF has no interest in FW battles, so your Caldari alts should be safe unless they decide to attack Placid region planets, when they get opened up for PC. |

Well it would be easier to say the main reason for not liking the other races.
Amarr- Religious zealot, slavers, I don't give a flying flip for people trying to be apologetic for the Amarr either.
Caldari- Even though I sympathize with them that is simply not the way I would want a society to work. I do admire their loyalty though.
Minmatar- I really don't have much of a complaint about the Minmatar besides that they base a lot of their actions based on emmotion rather than logic.
So I went with Gallente because of why everyone else went with them. I know that their citizens at least have a choice how to live their life...for the most part... They are they second largest empire but their military is voluntary, you aren't even forced to go to a military school with the Gallente. I'm aware of the ****** up **** Gallente have done (example, the Caldari incident) and the flaws in their society but I still see their society as decent and more in tune with my view.
None of these empires are the good guys but I believe it's safe to say that Amarr take the cake as general bad guys IMO. |

But you are only looking at this from the perspective of one racial history that has historical examples of some of these reasons... AKA your probably American...seems like everyone who plays this is.
However you cannot judge the races based upon how the people of our time view them. Since the Caldari and Amarr have developed the way they have the people of their nations all recognised their system of governance as the best.
No Amarrian would normally criticise the Amarrian system of governance, nor would they question is because they believe it to be the right way of doing things, same for the caldari, and minmatar.
The Amarrian aren't fanatics either they just have faith. Christians and Catholics aren't fanatics, they just have faith, like the amarr..... people like the Blood Raiders are fanatics.... read up on them they are incredibly scary. |

It is also noteworthy to say that I'm not very Pro Federation but I'm more in tuned with Gallente Society and their ideals. Gallente - Their economy is held together by the drug market. A bunch of people trying to run a democracy without a clear head. Claim to be champions of freedom yet have a problem when a society peacefully exists with traditions not to their standard, even if everyone within that society is happy with their culture.
I would love to hear your argument as to why the Amarrians are the clear cut choice for the "bad guys" of New Eden. |

Indeed the stats don't lie
Children under 12 having tried drugs in the last month Gallente - 33% Amarr - 1%
Children 13-17 having tried drugs in the last month Gallente - 71% Amarr - 5%
Children exposed to drugs in the home in the last month Gallente - 83% Amarr - 2%
