10 Video Game Moments You Played Again (Because You Were TOO EVIL)

4. Skyrim - Making A Sacrifice For Boethiah

If you're a budding evil mastermind looking for someone to admire, may I suggest The Daedric Prince of deceit, conspiracy, treachery, and sedition -- or Boethiah, as known to their mates. In fact, when you reach Level 30, why not make a sacrifice to win Boethiah's favour and prove your devotion?

Talking to the Priestesses informs you that if Boethiah manifests as a result of your sacrificial offering, they'll let you join their cult! Sounds like an easy way to get a tantalising taste of pure evil, until you realise that the sacrifice has to be someone you're close to.

Ouch. Turns out buying into evil requires a hefty deposit. You can actually sacrifice any follower you've picked up on your travels, but if you don't know this, you may end up relinquishing a close ally or even your spouse just to get a glimpse of the Prince, and that's a sacrifice even the most villainous of us shouldn't be willing to make.
