I agree, that the current evil way to play through, is just stupid. I mean, I'm currently on my first playthrough with a good character, who sided with the Tiefling and druids and helped the Mykonids, but I don't know, what would motivate me to side with a creepy cult to kill a bunch of people, that were mostly nice to me.
Other than playing a murder hobo, which I'm not interested in.
