>I guess our views differ, and for the most part, I can't honestly share most of your feelings.

That's entirely fine; its your opinion and you have the right to it. You stated yours and I stated mine. If you look back at most discussions we participate in, save for technical issues, we rarely agree on the points of view. ;)

MORE SPOILERS

The abrupt turn around of Daud's actions and the game's continued forceful attempts to make us care about the Outsider are best exemplified by the boringly long and drawn out final conversation between Daud and Billie in the Void. When Confronting Daud, there are no less than FOUR prompts you have to choose the path to spare the Outsider... I'm asked less often to confirm edits here on the wiki or change my password on a site. That's a bit much.

Also, when Daud finally DOES decide to change his mind, it's just scripted and he's like 'kay. No hesitancy, no thoughtful introspection... just "Sure, you're probably gonna keep pestering me 'til I do this, so I'll say something slightly stoic act like you said something important (moreso than the first three times we were prompted to kill him or let him live) and do it just to end this mess."

I didn't feel character growth, I didn't feel the story, it was just clicking on some buttons to get the desired result. Nothing deep or moving about it, save maybe a bit of frustration at having to pick the same choice so many times.
