I like playing machiavellian rogues because to me it's just more fun. BG3 has a lot of scope for playing factions off each other for charname's entertainment and personal gain, and I intend to use that to full effect. It's not at all about causing death, suffering and destruction for their own sakes, and while it is about charname gaining power, that's not a deciding factor in every decision. There are also elements of just being disruptive and manipulative, shaking things up, stealing everything that isn't nailed down, and getting away with it all, that in a crpg is a lot of fun. I tend to identify this behavior with neutral evil, and I distinguish it from chaotic evil because it's far from a murderhobo playstyle, but would be interested if anyone versed in the alignment system says otherwise.
