Yes, the game has, from the very beginning, gone to great lengths to cater to the evil side. We know this. It's the good side that has been consistently screwed over. Fewer good companions, and they're the lamest of the companions. No good equivalent to the Dark Urge concept. And most of all, poor and weak (and sometimes downright horrible) good endings for the game. It's very clear to me that Larian wanted this game to be their gift to evil players.
