I played through the game as a good-aligned Dark Urge trying to resist the urges and thought the experience overall was great. As far as I remember the Alfira incident is the only time where you have no agency, and it's done that way to set the tone of the story. While heavy on shock-value, I felt it worked and was effective.
From that point on, you'll have full control over whether to succumb to your urges or try to resist them (though there are consequences for both and resisting usually had dice tolls involved).
