      Whenever I’ve played an evil character in any RPG, I’ve always decided what their code is, and their internal motivation for their actions. Makes it more fun in my opinion.

      Hitler loved his dog, and was obviously a piece of shit.

      I see no reason why your playthrough of Henry can’t be a real bastard to everyone except for dogs!

      (Never played the game and don’t know who Henry is)

        Honestly, most games with a good/evil dichotomy (or even good/evil/neutral) just don’t make evil make sense, it’s always about senseless violence and backstabbing people like it’s a sport. Yet even people who would never kill the dog in a game usually still steal from commoner NPCs and often happily murder NPCs that were a bit of a dick to them.
