Video Game Logic - Good vs Evil

Ah-ha! You fools! The writer's actually being subversive and using blatant iconography to trick the audience, where it turns out that the people that look evil are actually the good guys!

Ah-ha again! It's actually, actually a tale of greys where both sides have legitimate good and bad points to them, both done in attempts to defend themselves and justify what they do during times of war, ultimately showing us that conflict doesn't often have easy and clear cut morality to it.
