Answer

You did not give any real specifics, and I am not sure how you expect an answer when no one here is going to know your playing style, especially when your question depends 100% on one's playing style.

In general terms, a Mage is considered more fun because they get to use all the flashy magic, whereas an Archer is more challenging, and a Warrior even more challenging.

This game has a built in proclivity towards making your Hero "good" and thus easier overall, but many people simply enjoy being evil. I personally prefer playing as a neutral Hero because all the cheering or screaming you get in towns from being good or evil becomes annoying quite fast.

Without more specific information from you, that will be the best answer I can give.

I myself am usually a good trader\ranger,speed and guile.As I said,I train guile so I can also shoplift pretty well.Most people choose to be evil because they'd think it looks better before they've even seen how awesome you look if you're good.

It's also a good bit easier to be evil,as villagers and traders are much weaker than Minions and Trolls.Not to mention you get 14 evil points for killing a villager,plus the 10 if you struck him with melee.All the evil creatures give you 2 good points for killing them.They think the Sword of Aeons is all powerful yet they haven't seen Avo's Tear or The Solus Greatsword.

To be perfect,though,you usually have to be a bit of both.I don't mean be neutral the whole game,I mean be good at one point in the game to get a certain advantage,and be evil during some other parts of the game for advantages and skills and vice-versa.

Answer

"Most people choose to be evil..."

No. Most people choose good. The game has an inclination towards steering you towards "goodness".

"It's also a good bit easier to be evil..."

Where are you getting this? No! This game has a built in proclivity towards morally good characters. Evil is always tougher due to the fact that many Shopkeepers will not even do business with you because of the fact that you are evil.

"They think the Sword of Aeons is all powerful yet they haven't seen Avo's Tear"

Again, no! Avo's Tear is the same as the Sword of Aeons, just with a different look. Same stats; exactly the same.

Playing an evil versus a good Hero can be a welcomed change of pace, but it is hardly "easier". Play good if you want a more relaxed and easy game. Play as evil if you just want to be an evil menace. Play as an unlevelled character for the challenge. Play as neutral for the least amount of annoyance.
