The Western family of digital RPGs frequently employs dark and serious fantasy or Science Fiction settings, and open-ended, nonlinear plot structures. The personalities of the characters are usually more subdued than those of their Japanese counterparts, with fewer cackling villains and comic relief characters. Stories often deal with ancient struggles for power that rarely end with a total victory for any given faction. The races featured in most Western RPGs are often based on those popularised by the writings of British novelist J. R. R. Tolkien, such as dwarves, orcs, and elves.
Western RPGs are often based more on consequential choices than their Eastern RPG counterparts, and there is often ambiguity seen in the motivations and intentions of characters, rather than the polar opposites of good and evil. This moral ambiguity can sometimes be extended to the player, allowing for multiple branches of dialogue and story paths; Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and its sequel The Sith Lords, for example, allow the player to pursue good, evil, or neutral pathways, each significantly impacting the game's storyline, the abilities the player has access to, and how NPCs treat the player.
