I guess I sort of role play it - or rather, I do feel really integrated into it, but I have to be good, everyone has to like me, and I have to make the morally best decisions. Luckily, in Dragon Age that's usually associated with the best rewards anyway. And the rewards ARE important to me. I like to get as many unique items and rewards as possible, or achievements, etc. But those are usually with the "perfect" decisions where you go out of your way to be nice and awesome and helpful, so no sweat.

Which makes games that actually do have very morally grey decisions (to be fair, Inquisition has had some tougher choices), or greater rewards for picking a "bad" choice, pretty distressing! I remember playing Skyrim, and to get all the daedric artifacts (iirc) there was one quest where you basically had to stab someone in the back and murder them, there's no other way to get it. I really wanted the achievement for all artifacts but I just cannot play a murdering, evil asshole. I really can't. Just the reason why I couldn't join the assassin's guild to get the cool demon horse....

I'm totally the same way! I always play the most diplomatic, good-hearted nerds. And then even on repeat playthroughs where I think I might try to be a lil more evil or morally grey, I just...can't do it. I don't wanna be mean :(

There's multiple like that...

Molag Bal, Mehrunes Dagon, Namira, Boethia, Mephala, Hircine, Vaermina, arguably Hermeus Mora and Malacath...

I was pissed that I didn't get the achievement due to a bug after the pretzels I tied my morality into justifying most of those.... ('Oh, I'll get a human from Windhelm for Boethia's quest...chances are he did something to deserve it.' 'Oh, I'm able to lure you by appealing to your greed, huh...well, I guess that means I don't need to feel guilty.' 'Eh, he'd probably consider being murdered on behalf of his god an honour...')

Edit - oh, but on the flip side, for Clavicus Vile, to get the item that actually counts toward the achievement, you need to NOT be an evil prick, which was a nice change.
