I am torn between the factions of Planetside 2. I've worked for the Vanu sovereignty for my entire lifetime in Auraxis, yet now I have realized their cultist ways and need help.

As most people who have fought for a faction will note, each power has a different motivation fueling their war. In my own personal opinion, armour and weapons are not nearly as important as just who you're actually fighting for. Once I realized the insane methods of the Vanu, and their efforts to "convert" the rest of humanity, I decided to change sides.

So my question is such: which of the remaining two factions shall I join? The New Conglomerate seems to me the best choice, since although it does act like a Terrorist group at points, a free Auraxis is worth making comprimises for, and I will gladly accept a few war criminals for a safe world free from an oppressive autocratic government.

On the other hand, the Terran Republic makes a good point fighting for a united world of order and brotherhood. They are trying to end the pointless wars and live on a peaceful planet, at least so they say. The fact of the matter, however, is that in many ways the Republic is oppressive, and I believe I require better persuasion if I am to join their forces.

Any opinions and advice on the subject are appreciated.
