Well, BG3 is in the world of Faerun, which compared to warhammer fantasy is a teddybear realm. But Larian stated it will be much darker than DOS2, which would entail they are exploring all possible paths in the alignment system. That would be my guess.

Suffice to say, you could play an evil character in both BG1 and BG2. You were a bhaal spawn after all. And let's not forget that in BG3, you have a tadpole in your brain, and it's not really friendly either.



Well, like I said I don't think that the evil path would be the "default" one. I do hope (and expect) that it's a possible path and that it's still an interesting way to play the game, but my original comment was more pointing out that I didn't think that the good side of the game would suffer or not be as important.
