Would the concept of an Evil Goku be better if it was actually Goku?

Discussion, generally of an in-universe nature, regarding any aspect of the franchise (including movies, spin-offs, etc.) such as: techniques, character relationships, internal back-history, its universe, and more.

The Zamasu saga would have been much better if it was an alternate version of Goku for sure.

It also would have left the door open for more characters than two versions of Zamasu to be working for Zamasu.

Maybe an alternate Goku that's broken mentally. Let's say he never turned super saiyan and Frieza ended up blowing up namek, killing the others and Goku barely made it out in a ginyu ship. Frieza beats him to earth and blows it up and Goku is forced to journey through space to find a new planet to live on and trains from there but is broken psychologically.

Something like that, or a "corrupted" Future Goku that has been through decades of adventures in the after life and gotten immensely stronger.

That sounds like a great idea.

Though personally, I've always thought that Gohan Black would have been a better idea than Goku Black.
