I was going to post this too in the characters and stories section, since I feel, it fits better there. Embracing Dark Urge is by far the most bleak ending, given that it means, your character had the chance to live a free life and threw it t away for the most cruel god out there.
This is one of the few videos that acknowledge, that Bhaalspawn can't form attachments at all, because they are forced to kill whoever the grow attached too. Unlike other evil gods, Bhaal doesn't give you room for anything else than murder in his name. I can't think of anything worse.
It also makes clear, that Durge was always going to betray and kill Gortash ( sorry Durgtashs - and the youtuber is a Durgtash too, but very realistic about how that will end) with this inner monologue when they meet again.
Embrace Durge is such a sad ending. Only failed Durge might be worse.
Exit: I really recommend watching this video, one of the best character and lore deep dives out there.
