I will say it’s a bit more complicated than that…
If you can stomach/embrace the evil it opens up some fun/interesting Act 3 stuff. The Durge arc and the “full-send evil” endings for Astarion and Shadynasty specifically were neat to see given how not-evil they can turn out in a “good” playthrough.
I can highly recommend
Act 3 Durge spoiler
leaning into your urge the whole playthrough then denying Bhaal at the last second and killing the Netherbrain
for the true unhinged, depressing ending.
Make sure to select the “piss yourself” option when the opportunity arises
Yeah that’s what I'd say is the “evil” ending, though your point is correct…I liked that his endings are morally ambiguous either way you choose (unlike Shadowheart, whose endings are pretty clearly “good”/“evil”).
