Completely new mechanics/systems/skill trees solely for 'evil' players seems a bit much imo.

who knows though, maybe it all comes together better than i'm thinking.
I think most of that feeling stems from the fact that very few games even allow you to play evil in the first place and of the times you can a lot of those endings just try to make you feel bad that you took that path and like a loser. Oh you didn't take the good path, here, put this dunce cap on, go sit in a corner, and think about what you did...which are really lame. And good endings have been beaten to death...make sacrifices for greater good here, unite cities or countries there, blah blah blah. Most of that stuff has been rehashed a million times over. I hope Larian can do something unique and original with the good endings too but it will be much harder than just having some evil endings don't try to make you feel miserable for having picked them.
