That way people will choose the faction that best resonates with their personal beliefs, and feel more invested for having made the choice. "Be stupid insane and do whatever the voices tell you because you are a brainwashed half-wit" does not resonate well with any significant portion of the population.

Your assuming I'm on the Vanu crazy Train. I'm not, I just think they are wrong. There is a difference between being Zealous and being crazy, however they often overlap. Crazy itself is such a vague term as it is. As a New Conglomerate player I dislike the Vanu sovereignty because they are giving themselves over to some mysterious alien voice. I don't trust the Terran Human government to rule, why then would I trust an even more foreign body such as an alien race controlling a "cult"???
I agree with you about the direction of the plot itself. I'm elated that each side has it's own vibe that is suppose to resonate with individuals; I think it's part of what makes it planetside.
