TopicDoes anyone else struggle to play games as an evil character?

Yes.

I think the problem is often how everything is based on the good side and the evil side often feels unnecessary cruel just for the sake of being cruel.

Random helpless person on the street:

Good action: Help them.
cruel action: punch them in the face.

Meanwhile, the action of simply "ignoring them" is either not included anyways, or gives you no reward at all why the cruel one is some kind of "quest completed".

Some games do it better, some do it worse.

I think Pillars of Eternity was a RPG that it good, because it's not just some good/evil karma points sum, but levels toward "merciful" ,"cruel", "selfless" ,"honest" ,"deceiving" and so on.

Made it much easier for me to bully others and be "evil".
