Infamous evil choice

The long-running Might and Magic series was, in many ways, ahead of its time and even though some of the games at first glance have aged like curdled milk, they did really cut some paths for the Western RPG to follow.

In the seventh game, players are presented with the quintessential choice of light and dark. This determines a few things, such as gating off certain sidequests and also determines which towns in the world of Enroth hate you depending on your alignment. Yeah you stinky good folk, get out of our pixelated town!

Classes in the game can ascend to new ranks depending on your choice, with the best example being the Sorcerer becoming the Lich if you choose the side of evil. This guy is incredibly resilient to certain types of magic and, most importantly, the dark spells you can wield are just intensely more interesting and more powerful than the light magic.

Their ultimate skill is called Souldrinker which drains all targets of life and transfers it to the party in the form of HP which is pretty damn helpful. Also, it’ll set up you to withstand wielding the spell called Armageddon which is about as powerful as it sounds.
