Have to say I liked this episode. They paced some of the events really nicely, and the music matched well too. The Envy reveal? Very nice. And Roy frying all those monster soldiers with swirling flames was pretty impressive. More than the manga even (and he was more thorough/ruthless too).

Torturing for pleasure? He's mostly just roasting him to death like Lust. Sure, he's enjoying the fact that Envy's suffers, but all his attacks are pretty tactical--either full body explosions, or shots to the eyes. The only exception was the mouth burn.
As for being no different from Envy...that's painting with a gross brush. When Roy kills a kid to start a civil war, I'll agree. But enjoying the fact that the enemy who murdered your friend suffers while you're trying to blow him to bits? Not really the same.
