Do you like to play an "evil" character when given a chance? If so, which game that has this option is your favorite? Do you "identify" with your evil character in the same way as you might identify with a "good" character?

I always play as a good and evil person.  I like playing an evil person more because you get more swag and get to be more badass.

I always try to be good as it seems to be a lot harder to stay on the good path then to just be evil.

I always play a supremely good character. Even on a second play through I have a very difficult time wronging people who do no wrong to me.

I almost always play as a good character, makes me feel better. I usually do a second playthrough as an evil one though.

I always play as a good guy the first time. You know, just maintaining the jedi code and everything...

This one. I can never play the same game from two perspectives. Recently, I've been good more often, like in Fallout 3.

I usually like the "look" of my evil character more than the good one...I am thinking about KOTOR and Fable 2 here, specifically

I didn't like the devil appearance in Fable II, but the full purity, full evil appearance was awesome(pale skin and red eyes...).

Yeah, I thought purity was maybe the more important characteristic in Fable 2 if you wanted your avatar to look cool. I maxed accuracy so I would be tall!

Good and Evil are the same thing, in my opinion.

You can't have one without the other.

Oh, and I don't believe, morals are universal because they are not (some people assume they are, shame on them).

My avatar is the opposite of all that is good and virtuous. In fact the character comes from the nemesis of the Avatar in the Ultima series. The Avatar embodies virtue and good, so to balance it out, an opposite entity was created. The Guardian.

When I play games with moral choices I often go evil first and then good.

I don't know why but, I tend to gravitate towards the goody goody character far more often then the evil character.

It always seems like games make it harder for you to be good. Whenever you choose to be good, It's like all the characters try and take advantage of you and push you to the edge, until you finally pop a cap in their head, and then they act like you did something wrong...

I'm always a good guy because I can't help but play it like myself...though I usually rock the douchebaggery in my second playthrough (if the game is good enough to warrant one).

I play as the evil character first because you get to be a merciless badass and the stuff you can do is a lot more fun.

I play good, but in Bioshock I took from the little sisters like nobodies buisness.

I liked Oblivion the best. I could be good, but be a thief at the same time and dabble among the darkness.

Other games require different tactics;

Fallout 3: All Good/started an evil avatar

Fable 2: All Good/ not finished

I feel guilty when I play as evil characters.

The dialogue choices in Mass Effect for the "evil" side were always really cruel. I couldn't ever bring myself to choose them. Then if I cast a spell in town accidentally in fable and the villagers went running away I always felt bad about it. I always resolve to play the games with moral choices again and be evil but it generally doesn't work out that way.

I play perfectly good characters. I can do no wrong (on purpose, although sometimes in dialog I may miss understand someone's intent) and I have tried. I'll try to do a second play through as evil/bad... but I can't. It kills me to be bad. I actually either end up being good without trying or I just quit playing because I can't handle it.

I'm a good guy. I just feel so bad after I'm evil, although, I may be a rogue-theif guy, but I never really like being a crazy evil guy, at least during my first playthrough.

I ALWAYS play the evil side first, then (depending on how much i enjoy it) i give the good side a go and laugh at their misery.
