Question:
1. Based on the description of Kratoss behavior, do you agree that Kratos (if he were real) should
be diagnosed with dissocial personality disorder? Explain your reasoning.
2. Jamal felt disturbed by the Poseidons Princess scene. Does that mean that he is more moral
than someone who was not disturbed by the scene? Would you consider him to be more moral
than someone who actually enjoyed the scene?
3. We have discussed Aristotles idea that we become virtuous by mimicking and repeating
virtuous acts. Explain why Aristotle might argue that Jamal should not let his sons play this
game.
4. We have discussed Kants principle of the end in itself. If the player does, as the game
requires, sacrifice the Princess, is the player violating Kants principle? In particular, does it
matter that the Princess is not a real person, but simply a computer construct?
5. Do you believe that playing this type of video game, where the player is forced to mimic
immoral actions, can cause a person to become less moral? Explain your reasoning. You may
wish to do some online research to provide evidence for your position.
