Just because you only feel negativity doesn't mean you can't be good, or that you can't do nice things. Sure, you don't get any emotional satisfaction over it, but you know that it's the right thing to do in that it is for greater benefit of others. ...

I see no reason that this could not be machinations of the Elder Brains. Mayhapse they suck down positive emotions and such like milkshakes, and now that the characters are "Free" from their influence those emotions may begin to return.
