Evil protagonist Rpgs

What games did you think makes you feel like an evil or morally ambigous main character the best? I know the usual suspects, like NWN HOTU campaing, Tyranny, Overlord 1 and 2, and Bloodlines, but im looking at the very niche ones, or the overlooked, even those with an evil path that people dont talk about as much.

Dragon Age: Origins. No dichotomous good vs evil morality system and plenty of choices which are morally reprehensible (e.g. supporting Branka in light of what she has done, as well as little things such as killing the prisoner and/or the wounded soldier at Ostagar).

I played Dragon age: Origins, and is still one of my favorite rpgs of all times. (Morrigan best waifu, i regret nothing)
I tried Jade empire but couldnt quit get the combat system, still pretty fun rpg.
Nwn2 mask of the betrayer kind of dissapointed me in the end. I really though the story would conclude in you destroying the wall of atheists (i dont remember its real name) but it take another turn.
So that leaves us with Fallout 2, wich i tried but couldnt get used to its mechanics, but will try again in the future, and Inquisitor, wich i have in my steam library from a sale and still have to end it. Thanks to all!

Natuk. You play a band of orcs, goblins and ogres. The final showdown...let's just say it felt right.
Great game for combatfags, storyfags are better off reading a book.

If you win, you join Nyarlathotep to stride the world to sow death and madness.

ADOM
Various evil quests, and various evil endings

Fallout
Side with the mutants, lead them to the vault (or is this the good ending?)

Serpent in the Staglands
Lots of options for evil characters, and doing any of them locks you into the evil ending.
