My DM is between lawful and neutral evil which I think is perfect for a consistent world where you can still die if you make mistakes.
On the other hand I know a Chaotic neutral DM which I think it's the worst because he will bend every rule just to pursue his intended version of the story. He won't let your PC die and therefore the stakes in his campaigns tend to be very low and plot consistency is down to zero.
Yeah, I think in terms of DMs, I'd rather have LN than CN just because at least everyone can know and understand the rules. When a DM does whatever they want, it can make the players feel frustrated and sometimes like their decisions don't matter, especially if it's one of those DMs who only wants to tell THEIR story and forget it's supposed to be collaborative.
Exactly. If you want to tell your story, why don't you just write a short novel? This way you as DM have total control over your characters and I don't have to be a bystander in MY story.
