I usually do that in a second playthrough

I'm a goodie goodie in my 1st

I have great difficulty playing evil characters, it's just not in my nature. I forced myself to try it once, in Mass Effect 1. That was the only playthrough of that game I didn't enjoy.

I also tried to play as Evil in Mass Effect 1 and my main problem was with how they wrote that character tract in general.

The "good" character is shown as calculating, strategic, considerate, intelligent. The "bad" character is just shown as some mindless ass who can't put 2 and 2 together. There was a big disparity in the writing that went just beyond the moral choices.

I mean to be fair, Mass Effect morality isn't really "Good and Evil"

A Renegade Shepard is still a good guy, just violent to their enemies. I don't agree that Renegade Shepard is a mindless ass.
