While the 7 deadly sins get personified all the time.

I figure its mostly because the virtues are bundled into the heroes of the story. The sins are also just funner to write.

The Virtue Warriors


I thought those ones just complained about men taking up too much room and a non existent wage gap

It's not exact, but it seems that the virtues of Ultima IV etc. figure far more into the games than the corresponding vices.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultima_IV:_Quest_of_the_Avatar#Virtues

In fact, when I heard of Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia for the first time a few days ago, I thought it was a new Ultima game.

The 7 virtues are, but the cardinal virtues are older than Christianity.
