Healthy fun is something to admire

A moral choice in a video game is based on WHAT DO I WANT TO SEE HAPPEN NEXT.
Hahahaha! That's not how everyone plays games. I can't remember all the times I've saved/helped virtual characters when it would have been much easier to let them die/kill them/steal from them. Nothing interesting happened (usually) I just did it because I felt it was the morally correct thing to do.
Also, morals aren't entirely external. They're very much based on our genetics.
Before I gave up playing Walking Dead because it was horrendous, I was pretty much a dick to all the characters in the game because that was super fun.
And here you are, role playing being a dick: because it's fun to pretend to be someone you're not sometimes! You don't regret that you not a huge dick and really do wish there was a Zombie apocalypse, it's just fun to play for a little while.
Adopting accents or responding in-character on voice chat/whatever are just degrees of the same game.
