I have an incredibly hard time being evil in video games. It just feels so wrong.

It feels both bad and wrong…there should be a word for this…like badong. Yes being evil in a video game feels badong

Same. I've tried several times in Baldur's Gate, but I just can't bring myself to do it. Especially once I recruit Karlach, I can't bring a frown to her face 😞

I’ve tried to go low honor in Red Dead. It’s so difficult

I run a "The end justify the means" type character when I play evil routes. Be an even more power hungry/corrupt/etc person than the villain(s), but doing it for altruistic end goals. Like yeah, I got most of the hostages, sure I may have chosen a very violent/questionable route and some MAY have gotten killed in the crossfire when the villains attempted to appeal to my moral standing, but mission accomplished.
