I was going to change mine like I used to be fond of doing. But then this one looks eerily similar to me, and then I was the only one using it so I felt an obligation to keep using it. Now, there is one other person using it, and you know, I can't let them win, whoever they may be.
Ahem…
This is why I don't speak at family gatherings.
Don’t worry. I will use it responsibly.

Where's the FUN in that?

They have it as an option, though it kicks in more at the levels where characters actually have an evil aura to make it a more relevant choice, and as DeadManWalking says, it is much less of a black-and-white "Lord Evilor is the evil one now smite him" ability and more of "Something's not right about all of this and something evil is afoot, I can feel it in my bones. We'd better examine the evidence more carefully."

That sounds like a pretty marked step up over the current design on Detect Evil. Does this apply to all "Detect Alignment" abilities or just the class feature that Paladins are getting?

I for one approve of making it easier for a party ally to be secretly evil without jumping through a half dozen hoops, most of which must be magical.

The paladin design is different than the spell, which is still less specific than the PF version but could be used to out an evil ally in a controlled environment...However! The paladin ability is also constantly active, whereas the spell requires forethought and preparation, and the spell isn't a given (as I said, we have better options for removing alignment entirely or deemphasizing if you want to do it, and part of that involves the ability to choose whether to include detect alignment).
Oooo so it's more like "my Evil senses are tingling" rather than an Evil detecting spotlight?
Yeesh, I can see a lot of folks taking their "sense tingle" as license to murder everything in sight.

A FALL IS FOR THEM!

REVEALED: The real reason behind the site upgrade was a deal struck behind the scenes with the goblins to stop crashing the site, in exchange for being the new Beatle for PF2!

...it suddenly makes so much sense...
