Talk:Dishonored: The Return of Daud/@comment-16533050-20170513174703/@comment-16533050-20170513183620

I admit I was basing this off of a supposition, since along with this it seems as if Daud is seeking to killer the unkillable... which would of course be the Outsider.

Even if this wasn't the case though, everything else of my tirade still stands:
 * Daud is the main character, not some previously unknown, or minor person
 * He is one of, if not the most popular character in the series
 * It's some ultimate/god-touched storyline with an unconfined, far-reaching plot; grandiosity to maximum effect
 * It needs to have the ultimate artifact as a MacGuffin

These types of stories make it hard to connect with, or even care about, the main protagonist(s). I mean c'mon, it's Daud. How unlikely is he to fail at this task as opposed to a minor Watch Lieutenant (Martha Cottings from the comics was an excellent new character), a young nobleman trying to do right, or a simple man who is trying to make a better life for his family.

That's like saying, "Hey! Let's build tension in a story featuring Darth Vader and see if he can get out of a tricky situation!"

Spoiler alert - Vader/Daud will win.

Ultimately, I don't hate the idea, but am rather just disappointed in its premise.

Also... -1000 points of coolness for Daudsider. :P
