The problem with alignment in a modern game is that nobody knows what evil is anymore. There has been such a warping of morality in RL that everything has become subjective. If we ask a player to be NG for example, many of them will struggle because they won't know what that means or disagree with the developer's choice of what that means. This is exactly why the oath-breaking thing is such a problem - we can no longer mutually agree on what should constitute a breaking of the oath.
So, yes, I would love old fashioned D&D alignments, but I don't have faith that Larian would know good from evil.
