Edit: holy shit I turn my head around for one second and I got 40 replies? THANK YOU ALL :D <3

I just rewatched Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy and following Bane’s and Miranda’s story made me realize that I’m a bit saturated in regards to playing as the hero, the protagonist, the “good guy” in PC games. While I love saving the world as much as the next person, I’d love to play as some perhaps self-righteous villain, or antagonist, or simply somebody portrayed in a way that’s meant to make the player sympathize with questionable morality or, at the very least, be conflicted about why you suddenly find yourself rooting for them.

I’m mostly looking for story driven open world single player games, but any recommendations are welcome. :)

      I played as the good guy and couldn’t resist getting a little corrupted on the sith planet. My favourite implementation of the allure of the dark side.

      Had to scroll way too far for this. The MMO SWTOR is also great, and has several good stories available (without needing to play with or against other players, if you’re not into that).
