That said, I haven't really seen anyone defending the evil path either.

Give it a try, definitely.
But yes you do lose Wyll, and because Minthara isn't a full companion like Wyll is, a one night stand with her isn't really a fair tradeoff. The "evil" path currently feels lacking in story surrounding it, it's not nearly as fleshed out story-wise as the "good" path is. Less conversations, less reasoning overall for it. (Also I did an evil playthrough immediately after a Tiefling Druid playthrough, so I felt awful about slaughtering Tieflings and Druids!)
Also it's interesting to see the companions' reactions, taking them down the "evil" path with you, and how this affects them.
